Explanation of The Hadith When Allah Wants Good for a person, He Bestows on Him Fiqh of the Religion.

by Shaykh Abdur Razzaq ibn Abdul Muhsin Al-Abbad Al-Badr

a al-Bukhr and Muslims authentically report the adth of Muwiyah (May Allah be pleased with him) in which the Prophet (May Allah raise his rank and grant him peace) said,

When Allh wants good for a person, He bestows on him Fiqh of the Religion.

This tremendously demonstrates clearly the great status of Fiqh in the Religion. The person who busies himself with this great matter and has taken significant concern for it is among the signs that Allh (The Exalted) wants good for his servant.

Allh wanting, as mentioned in the adth, refers to His divine decree and universal will,

When Allh wants good for a person.

Meaning, through Allhs universal and divine decree He grants his servant Fiqh, causes the servant to find pleasure in being busy with learning the Religion.

The word good is mentioned in an indefinite form (in Arabic) to attach a level of importance and clarify the abundance of good to whomever Allh bestows Fiqh of the religion, which by it is a means for ones victory and success. The servant finding happiness in having Fiqh of the religion, devoting oneself to it, regularly attending the sittings of knowledge, being delighted with reading the books from the people of knowledge and studying and memorizing are among the signs of good for the servant.

The servant should set aside a portion of his day to seek knowledge. An avenue in which he acquires knowledge is that he doesnt let a day pass by without obtaining it. Doing this should be among the objectives that the Muslim strives for daily and is serious about acquiring beneficial knowledge. Rather, this is the most significant objective the Muslim seeks and strives to achieve.
