Knowledge is one of the best acts of worship, and a Muslim is rewarded for acquiring it, acting upon it, teaching it, and for others benefiting from it. If a questioner asks a question with the intention that others may benefit from the answer, then he is rewarded for his question and his endeavor in spreading knowledge. A student of knowledge must have four intentions before embarking on seeking knowledge: to move from misguidance to guidance, to benefit the servants of Allah, to revive and disseminate sciences, and to act upon what he learns.
