Death of Scholar: Greatest Loss of Knowledge


How is knowledge lost?

قال سعيد بن المسيب رحمه الله:


شهدت جنازة زيد بن ثابت رضي الله عنه فلما دلي في قبره ال ابن عباس رضي الله عنهما:


من سره أن يعلم كيف ذهاب العلم فهكذا ذهاب العلم والله لقد دفن اليوم علم كثير 


تهذيب التهذيب ٣/٣٤٥


Sa’eed bin al-Musayyab [may Allāh have mercy on him] narrated: “I witnessed the funeral of Zayd ibn Thābit, [may Allāh be pleased with him], when they lowered him into his grave, ibn Abbās [may Allāh be pleased with him] said: 


‘Whomsoever would like to know how knowledge is lost, this [here] is how knowledge is lost. By Allāh, knowledge in abundance has been buried today.’”


Tahdheeb ath-Tahdheeb, 3/345 | Al-Imām ibn Hajr al-Asqalāni [may Allāh have mercy on him]

The disappearance of Knowledge and appearance of ignorance ( Saheeh Bukhari)


Knowledge will be lost...

Scholars will die...and knowledge will be lost
