Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from al-Hassan ibn Mahbub from Jamil ibn Salih from Muhammad ibn Muslim from Ja’far (a.s.) who has said the following. “Those of you who teach will have the same reward as those who learn in addition to his higher position over the student.

Learn knowledge from those possess knowledge and teach it to your brethren just as the scholars have taught you.” صحيح - Allamah Baqir al-Majlisi (Mirʾāt al-ʿUqūl fī Sharḥ Akhbār Āl al-Rasūl (1/115)) صحيح - Shaykh Baqir al-Behbudi (Sahih al-Kafi (1/4))
