قال تعلمت العلم وعلمته وقرأت فيك القرآن قال كذبت، ولكنك تعلمت ليقال عالم وقرأت القرآن ليقال هو قارئ،
He said, "I learned the knowledge, I taught it, and I recited the Quran in your presence." He said, "You lied. Rather, you learned so that people would call you a scholar, and you recited the Quran so that they would say he is a reciter."
لِيُقَالَ so that it may be said
This is the purpose-prefix li- ('so that') fused onto a passive-shaped verb, which the li- forces into the subjunctive. It names the real aim, 'so that it would be said', the passive leaving the sayers unnamed: he learned to be called something.
