Islamic (Shar‘ia) knowledge and Medicine are the noblest branches of knowledge. Imam Ibn Abi Haatim ar-Raazi narrated that ar-Rabee‘ ibn Sulaymaan said: I heard ash-Shaafa‘i say: Knowledge is of two types: religious knowledge and worldly knowledge. Religious knowledge is fiqh (and learning about Islamic teachings) and worldly knowledge is medicine. Adh-Dhahabi quoted Imam Ash-Shafa’i saying: I do not know of any branch of knowledge, after knowledge of what is halaal and haraam, that is nobler than medicine. And it was narrated from him that he said: Never live in a city where there is no scholar who could answer your questions about religious matters and no doctor who could advise you about your physical well-being.
