The Status of those who seek Knowledge
Description
The scholars occupy a noble status in Islam, and which is higher than the position of others in this world and in the Hereafter. Allah says: "Allah will exalt in degree those of you who believe, and those who have been granted knowledge” [Quran: Al-Mujaadilah: 11]
Allah praises the scholars, as He says: "Say: Are those who know equal to those who know not? It is only men of understanding who will remember (ie. get a lesson from Allah's Signs and Verses)" [Quran: Al-Zumar: 9]
Those who have knowledge are the quickest of people to understand the truth and believe in it: "And that those who have been given knowledge may know that it (this Qur'an) is the truth from your Lord, so that they may believe therein, and their hearts may submit to it with humility" [Qur'an: Al-Haj: 54]

منزلة طلاب العلم
للعلماء منزلة عظيمة في الإسلام تعلو من سواهم في الدنيا والآخرة، إذ يقول الله تعالى: "يَرۡفَعِ ٱللَّهُ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ مِنكُمۡ وَٱلَّذِينَ أُوتُواْ ٱلۡعِلۡمَ دَرَجَٰتٖۚ" [المجادلة: 11]
ويُثني الله على العلماء، فيقول فيهم جلّ شأنه: "قُلْ هَلْ يَسْتَوِي الَّذِينَ يَعْلَمُونَ وَالَّذِينَ لا يَعْلَمُونَ إِنَّمَا يَتَذَكَّرُ أُوْلُوا الأَلْبَابِ" [الزمر: 9]
وأصحاب العلم أقرب من غيرهم لإدراك الحق والإيمان به، فيقول الله تعالى: "وَلِيَعْلَمَ الَّذِينَ أُوتُوا الْعِلْمَ أَنَّهُ الْحَقُّ مِن رَّبِّكَ فَيُؤْمِنُوا بِهِ فَتُخْبِتَ لَهُ قُلُوبُهُمْ" [سورة الحج: 54]
