Majma al-Zawaid 867 — One who seeks knowledge for other than Allah
وَعَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي حُسَيْنٍ قَالَ : بَلَغَنِي أَنَّ لُقْمَانَ الْحَكِيمَ كَانَ يَقُولُ : يَا بُنَيَّ ، لَا تَعَلَّمِ الْعِلْمَ لِتُبَاهِيَ بِهِ الْعُلَمَاءَ ، وَتُمَارِيَ بِهِ السُّفَهَاءَ ، وَتُرَائِيَ بِهِ فِي الْمَجَالِسِ .
رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ ، وَهُوَ مُنْقَطِعُ الْإِسْنَادِ كَمَا تَرَى .
