Sunan ad-Darimi 374 — Rebuke for Seeking Knowledge for Other Than

أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، قَالَ: "كَانَ يُقَالُ الْعُلَمَاءُ ثَلَاثَةٌ: عَالِمٌ بِاللَّهِ يَخْشَى اللَّهَ لَيْسَ بِعَالِمٍ بِأَمْرِ اللَّهِ، وَعَالِمٌ بِاللَّهِ عَالِمٌ بِأَمْرِ اللَّهِ يَخْشَى اللَّهَ، فَذَاكَ الْعَالِمُ الْكَامِلُ، وَعَالِمٌ بِأَمْرِ اللَّهِ لَيْسَ بِعَالِمٍ بِاللَّهِ لَا يَخْشَى اللَّهَ، فَذَلِكَ الْعَالِمُ الْفَاجِرُ".
Sufyan (may Allah have mercy on him) said: It is said that scholars are of three types: One who possesses knowledge of Allah, fears Allah, but is ignorant of Allah’s command. The second is one who knows Allah, knows Allah’s command, and also fears Allah; he is the complete scholar (of religion). The third is one who knows Allah’s command but does not know Allah nor fears Him; he is a sinful scholar.
