Hadith Methodology and Literature

"Hadith Methodology and Literature" is a well-structured introduction to the science of Hadith—the recorded sayings, actions, and approvals of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. The book covers key topics such as the classification of hadith (e.g., sahih, da‘if), the chain of narration (isnad), the text (matn), and the rigorous methods used by scholars to verify authenticity.

It also explores the development of hadith literature, major compilations like Sahih Bukhari and Sahih Muslim, and the contributions of prominent muhaddithun (hadith scholars). Ideal for students and general readers, this book serves as a gateway to understanding how hadiths were preserved, studied, and transmitted within Islamic tradition.
