Gifts of Knowledge

“Shaikh Muqbil bore many difficulties for the sake of seeking knowledge. When he was doing so at Jāmiʿ al-Hādī, there was some dry bread which had been around for some days and on which a spider had spun a web, so he soaked the bread in some water so that he could eat it and carry on seeking knowledge.”
