Umdatul-Ahkami min Kalami Khairil-Anam (Principle Islamic Rulings, Taken From The Hadith Of The Prophet SAW)
The Sunnah of the Prophet Muhammad (ص) is the practical implementation of the Noble Qur’an, it was taught to the Prophet along with the Scripture, side by side. Neither the Noble Qur’an nor the honourable Sunnah can be understood correctly without recourse to the other.
The Prophet and His Ten Companions Who Were Promised Paradise
Ibn Ḥibbān (d. 354 AH) stated concerning this classical work:
“I clarify in this book that which will beautify for the wise person the practice of praiseworthy characteristics and make the practice of reprehensible characteristics seem ugly while intending to refrain and abstain from persistently increasing in these bad qualities, to lighten the load for the bearer and enlighten the ear of the listener. And because of the various narrations and verses of poetry that will be mentioned in this book, the one who strives to study each chapter in depth will wish that they would never end. And whoever refuses to reach completeness and success is, in reality, accepting inadequacy. Allāh is the Granter of success and the Guider to integrity. And I ask Him for rectification of the soul and a pardon from punishment of sins. Indeed, He is the Most Generous, Noble, Compassionate, and Merciful.”
The author bases this work upon what is found in the Qur’ān and authentic Sunnah, and upon the statements of the Salaf of this nation.
