Lightbulb Quranic verses related to knowledge

Ok, my brother is graduating from university inshAllah, and my family wants to have a gathering to celebrate. Anyway, my dad wants to have a short quran recitation to kick things off, and he wanted any specific surahs/ayats related to knowledge/seeking knowlege etc., to be recited.

Anyone know of any? thanks in advance.

Honestly, most of the verses people use in this regards are actually talking about religious knowledge, and not worldly knowledge. Wallahu Aalim.

Is there really a distinction?

I think our religion enjoins us to attain both religious and worldly knowledge. However, the Quranic verses seem to talking about strictly religious knowledge.

Anyways, do I really have to be the one to consult Shaykh Yahoo bin Google to save this thread?

Are you a bad dude enough to save this thread?

I just asked if there's really such a clear demarcation between the two.
And yes, please consult your Shaykh, Imam Jaysh.
