"Whoever calls to goodness will have a reward similar to that of those who follow him." This includes the one who calls to good or teaches beneficial knowledge, for he will receive the reward of the one invited or the student until the Day of Judgment, and that will not diminish anything from their rewards. Thus, the one whose example is followed in goodness will receive a reward similar to that of the follower, as stated in the hadith: "Whoever introduces a good practice in Islam will have its reward and the reward of whoever acts upon it after him."
