Forty Hadiths – Compiled and translated by Shaykh Gibril Fouad Haddad
Bilingual – Arabic & English – 2017

This is an exciting publication on a very important subject: The excellence of al-Shām and its People.

The aim of the book is to have a greater appreciation and understanding the role of al-Shām as our collective heritage through the presentation of 40 Hadith. We hope the work makes us reflect on the current crisis and a look into what the future holds. The world renound scholar of Hadith Shaykh Gibril Fouad Haddad compiles and edits this revised second edition that includes copies of the hand written forwards by some of the great Scholars of Damascus: Shaykh Adib Kallas, Shaykh Tukamani, Shaykh Ghawji.

This is a lovely edition that contains both the Arabic and English text across 282 ivory pages bound and sewn with head/tail and ribbon covered in cloth covered hardback and dust jacket.

All praises are due to Allah and may His salutations and blessings A descend upon our Master, the Beloved of Allah, the Mercy to Mankind and the Master of the Two Worlds, Muhammad, and upon his Family and his Companions.

May Allah bless our guide, teacher, and the mujāddid His Eminence Shaykh Muhammad Al-Yaqoubi who is upholding the fag of truth and fighting oppression in the blessed lands of al-Shām. The inspiration to republish this work was because of his efforts and ongoing work to assist the innocent of the Syrian conflict. We request that all pray for the blessed lands and people of al-Shām for the oppression to be lifted, for victory to come soon and for the lands and people to be returned to the glory that Allah bestowed- as explained and indicated by His Messenger – which this beautiful book clearly shows.
