The Ethics of Learning

August 29, 2026 | Mudasir Sofi

It is necessary that the teacher be upright, before seeking that the student be upright. Otherwise, the teachers counsel will not benefit the student, because following someone indeed is stronger than following words alone.

Concerning the student, there are many Etiquettes and Duties that He is required to Perform.

The First Duty of the Student


The first duty of the student is to prioritze the purification of his Soul of blameworthy characteristics, due to the Prophet's words:- " Islam was built upon Purity"..
The Prophet saw, was not speaking about keeping one's clothes pure. Rather, he was not speaking about the heart. It is obvious that the impurity mentioned does not refer to the clothes of the student. As long as student doesn't purify his inner being of impure traits, his inner being will not accept beneficial religious knowledge, nor be illuminated through the light of knowledge.

The Second Duty of the Student


The student of the student is to limit his attachment and travel away from his homeland, so that his heart will be free for knowledge. For Allah has not placed for any men two hearts in the same breast. That is why it has been said of knowledge, " It will not give you a part of itself, unless you give it all of you".


The Third Duty of the Student


The student does not behave haughtily before knowledge nor command his teacher. Rather, he should place himself under his teachers complete control.
The Prophet saw said," Adulation is not from the character of the believer, except in seeking knowledge".


The Fourth Duty of the Student


The Duty of the student is that he avoids giving his attention to the disagreements of the people of knowledge, because that breeds confusion and perplexity..


The Fifth Duty of The Student

The Fifth Duty of the Student is that he doesn't behave any displine among the praiseworthy sciences, excepts that he investigates it until he reaches its objective..


"The Duties of The Guiding Teacher".


The most excellent state of the guiding teacher is his joining between Knowledge and Action. Such a person is greatly considered in the hidden realm of Heaven. He should not be like the needle that makes clothes for the others, while it is naked itself, or like the wick of a lamp that gives light to others while it burns itself out, as has been said.
If someone assumes the role of teaching, he has taken on a great responsibility. So, he should observe its Etiquettes and Duties.


The First Duty of the Guiding Teacher

The first duty is being softhearted towards the student and treating him as he would a son, due to the Prophet's words " I am to you like a Father to his children"..
Rather, in reality the Guiding teacher is the True father, because ones father is a means to the ephemeral life, while the teacher is a means to eternal life. That is why the teachers right has been considered greater than the right of the parents of that is the case than that different students of a single teacher should love him..


The Second Duty of the Guiding Teacher

The Duty of the Guiding Teacher is following the Prophet saw, words," Do not seek a wage for teaching".
Allah said " We do not want any reward , or even gratitude from You"..


The Third Duty of the Guiding Teacher

The teacher is that he not put off any sincere counsel until tomorrow, such as his forbidding then from assuming a position before deserving it, or delivering into hidden knowledge before seeking fully established in apparant knowledge.


The Fourth Duty of the Guiding Teacher

The Teacher is to counsel the student and forbid him from displaying blameworthy characteristics. However, the teacher should do this indirectly and not indirectly. Mentioning such things directly will remove the Veil of the Reverence..
