Fathwa - Studying in a textbook that contains a false religious statement

Question
i have a book in which it is written that"life eternal through
knowledge" ..is it permissible to study fromsuch a book ..i even have
a medical entrance test which is based on this book.can i write that
exam?
Answer
All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify
that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad
, is His Slave and Messenger.
You did not mention to us the context in which that sentence was
stated so that we may know whether it has a specific interpretation.
Anyway, the apparent indication of that sentence is false and it is
not permissible to believe in it. Worldly life surely has an end
andafter it, there will be the Last Day in which Allaah The Almighty
will reckon His slaves.
However, its presence in that book does not prevent from benefiting
from the beneficial knowledge it has and from taking that test. That
is because it is well known that such books can rarely be free from
some false concepts.
You have really done wellby investigating and asking about what is
unclear to you of your religion. Indeed, the Muslim individual should
be like so, acting upon the saying of Allaah The Almighty (which
means): { So ask the people of the message if you do not know. }[Quran
21:7]
May Allaah reward you well.
Allaah Knows best.
