The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.
وَعَنْ أَنَسٍ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «مَنْ خَرَجَ فِي طَلَبِ الْعِلْمِ فَهُوَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ حَتَّى يرجع» . رَوَاهُ التِّرْمِذِيّ والدارمي
Anas reported God’s messenger as saying, “He who goes out in
search of knowledge is in God’s path till he returns.” Tirmidhi and
Darimi transmitted it.
