Jami' al-Ulum wa 'l-Hikam [Arabic]

Jami' al-Ulum wa 'l-Hikam fi Sharh Khamsina Hadithan min Jawami' al-Kalim

It is a comprehensive collection of sciences and wisdom in commentary of fifty hadiths (Including the 'Forty' of Imam An Nawwawi) from the concise comprehensive speech (Jawami' al-Kalim) of the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace.

The author, Imam Ibn Rajab al-Hanbali adds another eight hadith to the famous 'Forty' Hadith of Imam an-Nawawi and gives a much more elaborate commentary on their chains of transmission, on the rulings that they entail and on the spiritual dimensions of the hadith, their explanations with respect to the verses of the Qur'an and other hadith, and what the great pious predecessors of Islam have said about them. Every hadith is considered by the 'ulama (scholars) essential for knowledge of the deen. The topics range from the most exacting treatments of the affairs of the shari'ah (Islamic Law) to luminous expositions of the spiritual sciences of Islam.
