Katheer ibn Qais reported: We were sitting with Abu Ad-Darda in the mosque of Damascus when a man came and he said, “O Abu Ad-Darda, I have come to you from Medina, the city of the Messenger of Allah, for a tradition narrated to you from him.” He said, “Verily, I heard the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, say: Whoever travels a path in search of knowledge, then Allah will easy for him the path to Paradise. Verily, the angels lower their wings for the seeker of knowledge. Verily, the inhabitants of the heavens and the earth – even the fish in the depths of the water – will seek forgiveness for the scholar. Verily, the virtue of the scholar over the worshiper is as the superiority of the moon over the stars. Verily, the scholars are the inheritors of the Prophets; they do not bequeath gold or silver coins, but rather they bequeath knowledge. Whoever has taken hold of it has been given an abundant share.” Source: Sunan Abu Dawud 3641 Grade: Hasan (fair) according to Ibn Hajar "sm"
