Ali Ibnu Abi Talib (RAA) said: Knowledge is better than Wealth because of 7 (Reasons):

1. Knowledge is inheritance of Prophets while wealth is inheritance of Firauns (Pharaohs).

2. Knowledge does not diminish (rather increases) with spending, while wealth diminishes with spending.

3. Wealth requires to be protected, while knowledge protects its owner.

4. Knowledge will enter the Kafan (Shroud) while wealth will be prevented from doing so.

5. Wealth reaches both believers and non believers (Kafir), while knowledge is reserved only for those who are worthy of it.

6. Knowledge will facilitate passing over the Seraat (Bridge over Hell) while wealth will pore hurdles.

7. People are always in need of scholars while they might not be in need of those possessing wealth.

"Acquire knowledge, it enables its professor to distinguish right from wrong; it lights the way to heaven. It is our friend in the desert, our company in solitude and companion when friendless. It guides us to happiness, it sustains us in misery, it is an ornament among friends and an armor against enemies." (widely attributed to the Prophet Mohammed (pbuh))
