الإمام علي (عليه السلام): من حق العالم عليك أن تسلم على القوم عامة وتخصه دونهم بالتحية، وأن تجلس أمامه، ولا تشيرن عنده بيدك، ولا تغمزن بعينيك، ولا تقولن: " قال فلان " خلافا لقوله، ولا تغتابن عنده أحدا، ولا تسار في مجلسه، ولا تأخذ بثوبه، ولا تلج عليه إذا مل، ولا تعرض من طول صحبته، فإنما هي بمنزلة النخلة تنتظر متى يسقط عليك منها شئ، فإن المؤمن العالم لأعظم أجرا من الصائم القائم الغازي في سبيل الله، فإذا مات العالم انثلمت في الإسلام ثلمة لا يسدها شئ إلى يوم القيامة

Imam Ali (peace be upon him) said: "Among the rights of the scholar over you is that you: greet the people generally, but give him a special greeting, sit in front of him, do not point with your hand in his presence, do not signal with your eyes, do not say, 'So-and-so said' in contradiction to his words, do not backbite anyone in his presence, do not whisper in his gathering, do not pull on his garment, do not force yourself on him if he is tired, and do not feel bored from his long companionship. He is like a date palm—waiting to see when something will fall for you from it. Indeed, a believing scholar has a greater reward than one who fasts, prays, and fights in the way of Allah. And when a scholar dies, a gap is created in Islam that nothing can fill until the Day of Judgment."

الإمام الباقر (عليه السلام): إذا جلست إلى عالم فكن على أن تسمع أحرص منك على أن تقول، وتعلم حسن الاستماع كما تتعلم حسن القول، ولا تقطع على أحد حديثه

Imam al-Baqir (peace be upon him) said: "When you sit with a scholar, be more eager to listen than to speak. Learn good listening just as you learn good speaking, and do not interrupt anyone's speech."

الإمام زين العابدين (عليه السلام): حق سائسك بالعلم: التعظيم له، والتوقير لمجلسه، وحسن الاستماع إليه، والإقبال عليه، وأن لا ترفع عليه صوتك، وأن لا تجيب أحدا يسأله عن شئ حتى يكون هو الذي يجيب، ولا تحدث في مجلسه أحدا، ولا تغتاب عنده أحدا، وأن تدفع عنه إذا ذكر عندك بسوء، وأن تستر عيوبه، وتظهر مناقبه، ولا تجالس له عدوا، ولا تعادي له وليا، فإذا فعلت ذلك شهد لك ملائكة الله بأنك قصدته وتعلمت علمه لله جل اسمه لا للناس

Imam Zain al-Abidin (peace be upon him) said: "The right of the one who trains you with knowledge is: to revere him, to respect his gathering, to listen to him well, to turn towards him fully, not to raise your voice above his, not to answer anyone who asks him about something until he is the one who answers, not to speak with anyone in his gathering, not to backbite anyone in his presence, to defend him if he is mentioned with evil in your presence, to conceal his faults, to highlight his virtues, not to sit with his enemy, and not to show enmity to his friend. If you do that, the angels of Allah will bear witness for you that you intended him and learned his knowledge for the sake of Allah, Glorious is His Name, not for the people."
