Throughout history, numerous scholars have compiled and published works consisting of forty prophetic Hadith, the collection produced here wishes to continue and revive this tradition. The reason this practice exists has perhaps best been explained by Imam Nawawi, in his Introduction to his widely acclaimed, forty Hadith compilation, which verifies the origin of this genre:

It has been transmitted to us on the authority of ‘Alī b. Abī Ṭālib, ‘Abd- Allah b. Mas‘ūd, Muādh b. Jabal, Abū al-Dardā, Ibn ‘Umar, Ibn ‘Abbās, Anas b. Mālik, Abū Hurayrah and Abū Sa‘īd al-ḳhudrī, may Allah be pleased with them all, through many chains of authorities and in various versions, that the Messenger of Allah said:

 ”Whosoever memorises and preserves for my people forty Hadith relating to their religion, Allah will resurrect him on the Day of Judgment in the company of jurists and religious scholars”.
