131 – Abū Salama al-Makhzūmī, Yahyā ibn al-Mughīra, narrated to me: My brother Muhammad ⦗102⦘ ibn al-Mughīra narrated to me, from Abd Allāh ibn al-Hārith al-Jumahī, from Zayd ibn Aslam, from his father, from Umar ibn al-Khattāb—may Allah be pleased with him—who said: “Knowledge must neither be sought for three purposes nor forsaken for three reasons: it must not be sought for disputation, boasting, or showing off; and it must not be forsaken out of shyness about seeking it, indifference toward it, or contentment with ignorance of it.”
