Those who have the ability to learn

Q 2: If a person wants to learn but finds no one to teach him, will he be responsible for this?

A: It is the duty of every Muslim to study his religion to know what is obligatory for him and what is unlawful for him. The Muslim has to learn such fundamental knowledge even if this requires traveling to another land if there is no one to teach him. Allah (Praised be He) states: So know (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) that, Lâ ilâha illallâh (none has the right to be worshipped but Allâh), and ask forgiveness for your sin... Also, the Prophet (peace be upon him) stated: If Allah wants to do good to a person, He makes him comprehend the religion. (Agreed upon by Al-Bukhari and Muslim). May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
