How every hadith is checked

  • The Arabic is copied from Sunnah.com (hadith) or Quran.com (verses), never typed from memory.
  • Each hadith links to its exact page on Sunnah.com, so you can check it yourself.
  • Grades name the scholar who gave them, for example “Sahih (al-Albani)”.
  • A weak narration only appears to say that it is weak, clearly labelled.
  • The author is not a scholar, and articles do not give fiqh rulings. For rulings, please ask a qualified scholar where you live.
