Glimpses into the Field of Hadith Terminology

There has long been a growing need to simplify the complex science of Hadith Terminology in the English Language. This intermediate level work aims to do just that, catering to the ever-increasing audience of English-speaking students of Hadith Studies in the contemporary world.

Only the most essential discussions of Hadith Terminology have been included in this book, while the deeper conflicts and exceptions have been avoided for brevity. The specific language used throughout the book has been carefully chosen to facilitate ease in understanding other Arabic primers in this field as well. Numerous examples and diagrammatic charts have also been included to further simplify these discussions.

Unique sections in this book include: ‘Important points on Hadith Referencing’ and: ‘Guidelines for Hadith Recital’. The book also serves as an index to a huge wealth of references in the field of Hadith Sciences.
