Nawawi’s Forty Prophetic Traditions is a compilation of forty hadiths most of which are from Sahih Muslim and Sahih al-Bukhari. This collection of hadith has been particularly valued over the centuries because it is a distillation by one of the most eminent and revered authorities in Islamic Jurisprudence of the foundations of Islamic sacred law or Shariah. In putting together this collection, it was the author’s explicit aim that “each hadith is a great fundament of the religion, described by the religious scholars as being “the axis of Islam” or the “half of Isam” or the “third of it” or the like and to make it a rule that these forty hadith be classified as sound.
