Strive for knowledge

In this hadith, the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ is teaching us about the value of knowledge. He says that if we knew what he knows, we would laugh less and cry more. This means that knowledge can be a powerful thing; it can make us realize how small our problems are compared to other things in life. It can also make us appreciate how much we have been blessed with and how much work still needs to be done in order for us to reach our goals. Furthermore, it teaches us to take life seriously and not take things for granted as they may not always stay the same way forever. Lastly, it encourages us to strive for knowledge so that we may become better people who are able to help others around them as well as themselves.
