1-104 Al-Khalil ibn Ahmad narrated that Ibn Muni’a quoted on the authority of Harun ibn Abdullah, on the authority of Suleiman ibn Abdul Rahman al-Dameshqi, on the authority of Khalid ibn Abi Khalid al-Azraq, on the authority of Muhammad ibn Abdul Rahman - whom I suspect to be ibn Abi Layli, on the authority of Nafe’ah, on the authority of Ibn Umar that God’s Prophet (MGB) said, “
The best form of worshipping is to apply yourself to the acquisition of knowledge, and the noblest form of being religious is piety.”

أنه قال: أفضل العبادة الفقه، وأفضل الدين الورع
