40 Hadith from Sahih Muslim

This book is a selection of forty beautiful Hadith from Sahih Muslim. The Hadith are

accompanied with an easy to follow explanation accessible to readership of all

levels and all age ranges.

The aim

of this book is to give the reader a flavour of Hadith literature within Sahih

Muslim. The themes of the Hadith

will reflect the unique Hadith collection in Sahih Muslim. The idea is

to present a selection of Hadith showing various aspects of the Islamic

teachings. The Hadith will mainly reflect themes regarding manners and etiquettes, character

of a Muslim, exhortations and admonitions, remembrance of Allah, knowledge and

action and beliefs.

The goal is to select Hadith with the view to build character,

promote spirituality, morals, manners and ethics. Within this volume is a

simple discussion of the theoretical parameters of praiseworthy characters

every Muslim should aspire to achieve, supererogatory virtuous acts of worship,

and the moral philosophy (in particular normative ethics) of these Hadiths. It

is hoped that this will open the doors for readers to enquire more about

Hadith.
