It is narrated from Abu Zahriyah that a man asked the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him: "Tell me the most virtuous deed." The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said to him: "Adhere to knowledge." Upon this, he said: "I have asked you about the most virtuous deed?" The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said to him: "Adhere to knowledge, for even a little action with much knowledge is abundant, and much action with ignorance is little." This narration is also reported through another chain.
