3643. It was narrated that Abū Hurairah said: "There is no man who follows a path in pursuit of knowledge but Allāh will make easy for him a path to Paradise, and if a person's deeds slow him down, his lineage will not help him to speed up." (Saḥīḥ)
3643 - حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ يُونُسَ، حَدَّثَنَا زَائِدَةُ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «مَا مِنْ رَجُلٍ يَسْلُكُ طَرِيقًا يَطْلُبُ فِيهِ عِلْمًا، إِلَّا سَهَّلَ اللَّهُ لَهُ بِهِ طَرِيقَ الْجَنَّةِ، وَمَنْ أَبْطَأَ بِهِ عَمَلُهُ لَمْ يُسْرِعْ بِهِ نَسَبُهُ»

Knowledge is not merely to know, but it is also to be acted upon, otherwise having a connection with learned families, and being the progeny of scholars is of no benefit to a person, and it may likely be a strike against him in the next life, if he does not act on such knowledge.
