´Muhammed bin Jubair bin Mut'im narrated that his father said:` "The Messenger of Allah stood up at Khaif in Mina and said: 'May Allah cause his face to shine, the man who hears what I say and conveys it (to others). There are those who have knowledge but no understanding, and there may be those who convey knowledge to those who have more understanding of it than they do.'" (Hasan)Other chains with similar wording.

Hadith Takhrij«تفرد بہ ابن ماجہ ، ( تحفة الأشراف : 3198 ، ومصباح الزجاجة : 89 ) ، وقد أخرجہ : مسند احمد ( 1/437 ، 3/225 ، 5/80 ، 82 ) ، سنن الدارمی/ المقدمة 24 ، ( 234 ) ( یہ حدیث مکرر ہے ملاحظہ ہو : نمبر 3056 ) ( صحیح ) » ( اس کی سند میں عبدالسلام بن أبی الجنوب ضعیف ہے ، لیکن متابعات وشواہد کی بناء پر حدیث صحیح ہے ، کماتقدم )
´It was narrated from Muhammad bin Jubair bin Mut’im that his father said:` “The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) stood up in Khaif in Mina, and said: ‘May Allah make his face shine, the man who hears my words and conveys them. It may be that the bearer of knowledge does not understand it, and it may be that he takes it to one who will understand it more than he does. There are three things in which the heart of the believer does not betray: sincerity of action for the sake of Allah, offering sincere advice to the rulers of the Muslims, and adhering to the Jama’ah (main body of the Muslims). Their supplication is answered (i.e. encompassing every good, and all of the people).”

Benefits and Issues:
➊ The foundation of jurisprudence (fiqh) is the Prophetic hadith. Any ijtihad (independent reasoning) that is not based on the Qur’an and hadith is not reliable.
➋ Scholarly matters should be conveyed to others.
➌ One should acquire religious knowledge even from a person who, apparently, is lesser in knowledge, age, or status. Sometimes, such a person may provide an academic point that is not found even with the great scholars.
➍ There is no limit to knowledge and understanding (tafaqquh). It is possible that someone who comes later may comprehend an ijtihadi or scholarly point to which the attention of earlier great scholars was not drawn.
➎ The heart of a believer does not betray; this means that a believer strives to perform these three deeds in the best possible manner and does not fall short.
➏ The requirement of a believer’s goodwill towards another believer is that he should not pray only for himself, but also for others—whether they are friends or relatives, strangers, fellow countrymen, or residents of other regions.
➐ Whoever prays for others also receives the prayers of others. (See also Benefits and Issues: Hadith: 230)
