Majma al-Zawaid 739 — Which of the people is most knowledgeable?
عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ أَنَّ رَجُلًا جَاءَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - قَالَ : أَيُّ النَّاسِ أَعْلَمُ ؟ قَالَ : " أَنْ يَجْمَعَ عِلْمَ النَّاسِ إِلَى عِلْمِهِ ، وَكُلُّ صَاحِبِ عِلْمٍ غَرْثَانُ " .
رَوَاهُ أَبُو يَعْلَى ، وَفِيهِ مَسْعَدَةُ بْنُ الْيَسَعِ ، وَهُوَ ضَعِيفٌ جِدًّا .

Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: A man came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and asked: Which person has the most knowledge? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The one who joins the knowledge of people to his own knowledge; and every possessor of knowledge is hungry (for knowledge)."
Abu Ya'la recorded it; its chain contains a narrator, Mas'adah bin al-Yasa', and he is extremely da'if (weak).
