ٱقْرَأْ بِٱسْمِ رَبِّكَ ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَ - خَلَقَ ٱلْإِنسَـٰنَ مِنْ عَلَقٍ - ٱقْرَأْ وَرَبُّكَ ٱلْأَكْرَمُ - ٱلَّذِى عَلَّمَ بِٱلْقَلَمِ - عَلَّمَ ٱلْإِنسَـٰنَ مَا لَمْ يَعْلَمْ

"Read in the name of your Lord Who created. Created humans from a clinging clot. Read! And your Lord is the Most Generous. Who taught by the Pen. Taught man what he knew not." (96:1-5)

وَٱلْعَصْرِ - إِنَّ ٱلْإِنسَـٰنَ لَفِى خُسْرٍ - إِلَّا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَعَمِلُوا۟ ٱلصَّـٰلِحَـٰتِ وَتَوَاصَوْا۟ بِٱلْحَقِّ وَتَوَاصَوْا۟ بِٱلصَّبْرِ

"By time.

Indeed, mankind is in loss.

Except for those who have believed and done righteous deeds and advised each other to truth and advised each other to patience." (103:1-3)

كُنتُمْ خَيْرَ أُمَّةٍ أُخْرِجَتْ لِلنَّاسِ تَأْمُرُونَ بِٱلْمَعْرُوفِ وَتَنْهَوْنَ عَنِ ٱلْمُنكَرِ وَتُؤْمِنُونَ بِٱللَّهِ ۗ وَلَوْ ءَامَنَ أَهْلُ ٱلْكِتَـٰبِ لَكَانَ خَيْرًا لَّهُم ۚ مِّنْهُمُ ٱلْمُؤْمِنُونَ وَأَكْثَرُهُمُ ٱلْفَـٰسِقُونَ

"You are the best nation produced (as an example) for mankind. You enjoin what is right and forbid what is wrong and believe in Allah. If only the people of the the Scripture had believed, it would have been better for them. Among them are believers, but most of them are defiantly disobedient." (3:110)

"Alhamdulillah here in Madinah after reading this great book (Guidelines for the Seeker of Knowledge) written by our respected student Ml Mohibur Rahman Jaigirdar. It is a valuable tool for our students of knowledge with such great rules of respect which will take the students to great lengths and achievements in life.
With the help of the Almighty and the Duaas of parents and our respected teachers, the guidelines highlighted in this great work by the Maulana once put into practice will lead to great success and happiness in both Worlds, Aameen"

"Very helpful and insightful book where I find myself going back to it even after reading it to continue to learn and reference certain topics. Overall a very good book to have for a Seeker of Knowledge."

"Alhamdulilah, although it appears to be directed at Islamic students of Madrasah, I found the book to be just as effective for any genuine seeker of knowledge. By genuine I mean any seeker of any knowledge who is seeking said knowledge for the sake of Allah (SWT) and his own salvation in the hereafter.
Seeker of Knowledge gets to the truth of the matter - in concise easy to understand language - in terms of the characteristics, qualities and intentions we need when seeking knowledge to bring about goodness for ourselves in this world and the hereafter.
I would highly recommend this book to be read to equip with the necessary traits that Ml Mohibur Rahman has managed to capture well and convey to the reader."
