[that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "Whoever takes a path upon which to obtain knowledge, Allah makes the path to Paradise easy for him."]

As a rule of thumb, any hadith which contradicts the Qur’an should be considered null and void. Only the Qur'an is the absolute authentic text which has remained intact throughout. Al Qur’an is the word of Allah سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَى and Hadiths are just for our reference.

May we receive mercy from Allah Subhanahu wa ta'ala and also receive guidance to gather sufficient supplies so that we are safe and comfortable in Mahsyar facing Allah SWT being entered into heaven by Allah Subhanahu wa ta'ala without reckoning and also punishment.

You have fulfilled the dream (vision)!” Verily!Thus do we reward the Muhsinun (good-doers, who perform good deeds totally for Allah’s sake only, without show off or to gain praise and fame, etc. and do them in accordance to Allah’s Orders). Verily, that indeed was a manifest trial - and We ransomed him with a great sacrifice (i.e. a ram).” ]

- Surah Al~Hajj 22 (The Pilgrimage), verse 26 : [ And (remember) when We assigned to Ibrahim the site of the House, saying, “Do not associate anything with Me in worship and purify My House for those who circle the Ka’bah, stand in prayer, and bow and prostrate themselves. ]
