One who seeks knowledge for other than Allah
Majma al-Zawaid 866 — One who seeks knowledge for other than Allah
وَعَنْ مُعَاذِ بْنِ جَبَلٍ ، عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - قَالَ : " مَنْ طَلَبَ الْعِلْمَ لِيُبَاهِيَ بِهِ الْعُلَمَاءَ ، أَوْ يُمَارِيَ بِهِ السُّفَهَاءَ فِي الْمَجَالِسِ - لَمْ يَرَحْ رَائِحَةَ الْجَنَّةِ " .
رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ فِي الْكَبِيرِ ، وَفِيهِ عَمْرُو بْنُ وَاقَدٍ ، وَهُوَ ضَعِيفٌ نُسِبَ إِلَى الْكَذِبِ .

Sayyiduna Mu'adh bin Jabal (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever acquires knowledge in order to boast with it before the scholars in gatherings, or to argue with the ignorant, will not find the fragrance of Paradise."
Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir; its chain contains Amr bin Waqid, who is da'if (weak) and has been accused of lying.
