100 Fabricated Hadith
By Sheikh Faisal. The Holy Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "He who
tells a lie on me intentionally, let him take his seat in the Hellfire"
(Bukhari Volume 1, No 107). Whenever a person quotes a fabricated hadith
knowingly, he or she is guilty of lying on the Holy Prophet Muhammad
(peace be upon him). Fabricated ahadith stunt the spiritual growth of the
Muslim Ummah. This book is a compilation and refutation of one hundred of
the most famous and lethal fabricated ahadith in the Muslim world today.
Rules Governing The Criticism Of Hadith
By Dr Mahmoud At-Tahhaan. An summarised text detailing the rules
governing the Criticism of Hadeeth. From its introduction -'A hadith (pl.
ahadith) is composed of two parts: the matn (text) and the isnad (chain of
reporters). A text may seem to be logical and reasonable but it needs an
authentic isnad with reliable reporters to be acceptable; 'Abdullah b.
al-Mubarak (d. 181 AH) is reported to have said, "The isnad is part of the
religion: had it not been for the isnad, whoever wished to would have said
whatever he liked." During the lifetime of the Prophet (SAS) and after his
death, his Companions (Sahabah) used to refer to him when quoting his
sayings. The Successors (Tabi'un) followed suit; some of them used to
quote the Prophet (SAS) through the Companions while others would omit the
intermediate authority - such a hadith was known as mursal (loose). It was
found that the missing link between the Successor and the Prophet (SAS)
might be one person, i.e. a Companion, or two persons, the extra person
being an older Successor who heard the hadith from the Companion.'

Sacred Scrolls: 40 Hadeeth Nawawi
The 40 Hadeeth of Imam Nawawi is a profound and comprehensive
collection, summarizing the teachings of Islam and the character of the
Prophet (S). “Everyone who desires and looks forward to the Hereafter must
be familiar with these hadith because they cover the most important
aspects of the religion and they offer direction to all forms of obedience
to Allah. This is clear to anyone who ponders these hadith.” - Al-Nawawi’s
introduction to his Forty Hadeeth
Chain of Command - Sciences of Hadith (Notes)
"Imagine a day. A day when all Hadith had been forgotten. No
recollection of tears shed in prayer, nor swollen feet. No memory of
'Aishah, nor Anas nor Abu Hurayrah. No knowledge of the actions of
pilgrimage or prayer. No mention of the Ummah that learned at the
Prophet's feet. Not its questions, not his answers, nor their toil.
Blueprints for the future...forgotten and buried in the past. Thank Allah.
For that dark day never came. True, there have been days of neglect and
days of confusion. But the hadeeth never vanished. For the Hadeeth had its
keepers. They were scholars who kept alive the authentic traditions of the
Prophet, Sal Allaahu 'alayhi Wa Sallam. They were the Muhaddeeths, and
Mustalah was their art. "
