The virtue of knowledge
سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ " بَيْنَا أَنَا نَائِمٌ أُتِيتُ بِقَدَحِ لَبَنٍ، فَشَرِبْتُ حَتَّى إِنِّي لأَرَى الرِّيَّ يَخْرُجُ فِي أَظْفَارِي، ثُمَّ أَعْطَيْتُ فَضْلِي عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ ". قَالُوا فَمَا أَوَّلْتَهُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ " الْعِلْمَ ".

Translation
Ibn Umar reported: I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: “While I was sleeping, I was brought a cup of milk, and I drank until I saw the quenching coming out of my nails. Then I gave what was left over to Umar ibn al-Khattab.” They said: “How did you interpret it, O Messenger of Allah?” He said: “(As) knowledge.”

Ibn Umar berichtete: Ich hörte den Gesandten Allahs ﷺ sagen: „Während ich schlief, wurde mir ein Becher Milch gebracht. Ich trank, bis ich sah, wie die Sättigung aus meinen Fingernägeln hervortrat. Dann gab ich meinen Rest Umar ibn al-Chattab.“ Sie sagten: „Wie hast du es gedeutet, o Gesandter Allahs?“ Er sagte: „(Als) das Wissen.“
