Unlock the Doors of Knowledge: 6 Keys from Imam Al-Shafi'i

6 Pillars of Knowledge Acquisition

𝗜𝗺𝗮𝗺 𝗔𝗹-𝗦𝗵𝗮𝗳𝗶’𝗶 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝘀𝘁𝘂𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱𝘀 𝘀𝗶𝘅 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗼𝗯𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗴𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗸𝗻𝗼𝘄𝗹𝗲𝗱𝗴𝗲:

1. Intellect or understanding (Zaka):-
(Intellect is the ability of the mind to think, reason, and understand objectively. The extent of knowledge we are capable of understanding is a gift from ALLĀH ﷻ) 

2. "Desire"
The one who has a desire to reach a noble goal will naturally become a seeker of knowledge. Having desire, or knowing your “why”, will fuel your ambition to seek books, lessons, memorization, teaching, and authoring to satiate fulfil the goal one desires.

3. "Effort"
A student of knowledge is hardworking. He should be committed to consistent study, strive hard to seek knowledge, and not be overcome by laziness or overtly occupied by frivolous activities that bring no benefit. It was said that Imam An Nawawi studied twelve different pieces of knowledge daily and adapted his body to accommodate his study schedule. He ate little and did not sleep on his side for two years but would sleep in a sitting position.

4. "Sustenance"
This refers to a person having continual means of sustenance, even if it’s small, to sustain himself and his knowledge. Sustenance gives one the means to invest in the books, classes, materials, transport, and other relevant items needed to gather knowledge. Likewise, sustenance provides shelter, food, clothes and other means of survival for the student. If sustenance is not available, it may take away the desire for knowledge. It was said, “Knowledge will not give you its part until you give him your full attention.”

5. "The companionship of a teacher"
A seeker of knowledge seeks the companionship of a teacher and guide who is an expert in the field of knowledge the student wishes to seek. A teacher will be able to guide the student to learn the right things and avoid what is not needed, so the student can achieve his goals in the most optimal manner.

6. "A long period of time
Knowledge is vast". Every seeker must be prepared to have patience and put in the time needed to become knowledgeable in any field.
