Does the Hadith: "Indeed, Allah and His angels, and the inhabitants of the heavens and the earths, even the ant in its hole, and even the fish; send blessings upon the one who teaches people good" include those who disseminate scientific topics in forums? And does it include the reward mentioned therein?
Publishing scholarly Islamic topics in forums is a righteous act. The : "Indeed, everyone in the heavens and on earth, even the fish in the deep water, seek forgiveness for the scholar" specifically refers to the scholar. The inhabitants of the heavens and the earth, even the fish, seek forgiveness for the scholar. It has been reported that Allah, His angels, and the inhabitants of the heavens and the earths invoke blessings upon those who teach people good. Furthermore, everything seeks forgiveness for the one who teaches people good. Scholars are the inheritors of the prophets, and everything seeks forgiveness for them. It has also been reported that this seeking of forgiveness includes the seeker of knowledge as well.
