اُردوEn
أَخْبَرَنَا أَخْبَرَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، أَنْبَأَنَا عَاصِمٌ، عَنْ مُوَرِّقٍ الْعِجْلِيِّ، قَالَ: قَالَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ: "تَعَلَّمُوا الْفَرَائِضَ وَاللَّحْنَ وَالسُّنَنَ كَمَا تَعَلَّمُونَ الْقُرْآنَ".
The Commander of the Faithful, Sayyiduna Umar ibn al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Learn the obligatory duties, the rules, and the Sunnahs just as you learn the Qur'an.
Brief Explanation
(Commentary on Hadith 2883)
By "faraid" is meant inheritance, its shares, and its rulings; by "lahn" is meant the rules and regulations of Arabic grammar (nahw), so that one does not make mistakes in speaking and understanding the Arabic language; and by "sunan" is meant the sayings of the Messenger (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) and the science of hadith. In reality, a person is in utmost need of these three sciences.
Although this is the statement of Sayyiduna Umar (radi Allahu anhu), it is not possible to deny the importance of these sciences.
