Translator: Dar As-Sunnah Publishers
Description: Abi Hatim al-Razi said: "No nation has existed since the creation of Adam, wherein its trustworthy ones memorise the narrations of the Messengers like this nation." Knowledge of Hadith is carried by the most worthy of people of every successive generation. They reprimand the radical elements for their attempted corruptions, the falsifiers for their distortions and the ignorant for their esoteric interpretations. They purify the Sunnah and refocus people's priorities back to the Prophetic narrations. Countless books have been authored on the subject of Hadith sciences, the special status its scholars occupy and the nobility of those who adhere to the Sunnah and the scholarly reports regarding it. This book is among the finest in this field in the way it's arranged and the ease with which one can grasp the content. Al-Khatib recounts Prophetic narrations, statements of the Muhaddithin and scholars of renown, by way of his own chain of transmissions (isnad); and this is an especially unique feature of this book.
