.....
There is no doubt that knowledge is the
key to all good and the means to fulfill the Ordinances of Allah and abstain
from what He has forbidden. Actions come after having knowledge, for those whom
Allah has granted success. Knowledge supports the determination to do good,
because there is no Iman (faith), action, or striving except based on
knowledge. Words and actions which are not based on knowledge are worthless and
may incur bad consequences and great corruption.
