Narrated Abu Musa: The Prophet sallalahu  alaihi wa sallam said, “The example of guidance and knowledge with  which Allah has sent me is like abundant rain falling on the earth, some  of which was:
a. fertile soil that absorbed rain water and brought forth vegetation and grass in abundance.
b. (And)  another portion of it was hard and held the rain water and Allah  benefited the people with it and they utilized it for drinking, making  their animals drink from it and for irrigation of the land for  cultivation.
c. (And) a  portion of it was barren which could neither hold the water nor bring  forth vegetation (then that land gave no benefits).
The first is the example of the person  who comprehends Allah’s religion and gets benefit (from the knowledge)  which Allah has revealed through me (the Prophets and learns and then  teaches others. The last example is that of a person who does not care  for it and does not take Allah’s guidance revealed through me (He is  like that barren land.)”  (Sahih Bukhari – Book #3, Hadith #79)
