Knowledge | عِلْم

Islam is a religion that celebrates seeking knowledge as a virtue such that we may find many verses in the Quran that encourages us to exercise our intellect to think and ponder. One such is the verse:

وَسَخَّرَ لَكُم مَّا فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَمَا فِي الْأَرْضِ جَمِيعًا مِّنْهُ ۚ إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَآيَاتٍ لِّقَوْمٍ يَتَفَكَّرُونَ

And He has subjected to you whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth - all from Him. Indeed in that are signs for people who give thought.

(Surah Al-Jathiyah, 45:13)
