This book Muntakhab Ahadith part of books in Collective Taleem in Khuruj Fisabilillah Taleem at home and in local mosque in the blessed effort of Dawah o Tabligh going all over the world by mercy and Qudrat of Allah Subhanahu Taala on the pattern of the effort of Dawah of our beloved prophet Muhammad Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam and Sahaba Karam Raziallahu Anhu. This Hadith work was originally done in Arabic by Maulana Muhammad Yusuf Kandhlawi (R.A) during the last phase of his devoted life. He collected all the relevant principles, rules and precautions from their original sources that is Quran and Sunnah.Although name is muntakhab Ahadith but it is also a vast collection of Quranic Ayats on all concerned chapters. First there are quranic Ayats and then Ahadith. He has been so comprehensive and extensive that this book is not merely a compilation of these principles, rules and instructions, but perhaps an encyclopedia, in brief, with their relative importance. This masterpiece was later organized and translated into Urdu by his grandson, Maulana Muhammad Saad Kandhlawi.
The Book Muntakhab Ahadith has been translated by a board of Islamic Scholars. It is a ready reference to guide the mankind towards the righteousness and enjoining the good and forbidden all evil deeds for the development and construction of an ideal society.
Translation of its Preface written by Fazilatus Sheikh Abullhasan 'Ali Nadavi Rahimullahu,
All praises to the Sustainer of the worlds, and grace,
honour and salutations on the Chief of Apostles and Seal of
Prophets, Muhammad, his family, companions and those who
followed him in an excellent fashion and invited mankind
towards Allah, till the Day of Resurrection.
This is a reality which can be stated without any ambiguity
and exaggeration, that in the Islamic world of today the most
powerfull, useful and all-encompassing effort, is the struggle of
the Tablighi Jamaat whose center is situated at the Tabllghi
Markaz Nizamuddin, Dehli (India) (I) . The scope of this effort
and its impact is not restricted to the Indian subcontinent, or
Asia, but extends to many continents and to a host of Islamic
and Non-Islamic states.
The history of such campaigns and revolutionary or
reformative movements shows that, after passage of a period of
time, or when the scope of the effort enlarges greatly (specially
when, by means of it, the attainment of certain advantages and
leadership becomes apparent) then such weaknesses, unwanted
objectives and neglect of the originalgoals set in, which reduce
or even totally wipe out the true influence of the work.
(l) In this assertion and testimony, there is no negation of the importance of all
those useful efforts and movements which cater to the reality and needs of the
present times, and which also create the ability to counter the prevailing trials
and tribulations. Here, the objective is only to acknowledge and highlight the
effectiveness and vastness of the efforts being made from the Tablfghi Da'wat
and its Movement, in a positive manner.
However,the Tabllghi effort (as far as the knowledge and
observations of the writer go) has, to a large extent been saved
from these tribulations up to now.
It is quite evident that the nature of this movement is based
on giving others priority over oneself (despite one's dire
needs), a passion for sacrifice, a quest for the pleasure of Allah,
a desire for reaping rewards in the Hereafter, respect and
honour of Islam and Muslims, humility and submissiveness to
Allah, the proper fulfillment of religious obligations, with a
desire for further advancement, a preoccupation with the
remembrance of Allah, refraining as far as humanly possible
from unprofitable and unnecessary preoccupations and
undertaking protracted journeys, while enduring all sorts of
hardships for the pleasure of Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala have
become a regular practice.
These special characteristics and distinctions of this work
attributable to the sincerity of its first preacher (Sheikh
i ammad Ilyas Rahimatullahu 'alaihi), his preoccupation
^ <th Allah, his prayers, struggle, sacrifice and above all, the
acceptance of this work by Allah the Exalted. Beside this, it is
also a consequence of those principles and preconditions which
were declared essential by its first preacher from its very
inception, and on which he always insisted and propagated. To
think about the meanings and responsibilities inherent in the
Kalimah, to acquire knowledge of the virtues of fulfilling all
forms of obligatory worship, a consciousness of the virtues of
knowledge and the remembrance of Allah along with a
preoccupation with the remembrance of Allah, respect for
Muslims with an appreciation and fulfillment of their rights, to
correct the motives behind every action, so that it is done
sincerely and solely for the pleasure of Allah, to refrain from
all that is irrelevant, and an enthusiasm and consciousness of
the virtues of travelling in the path of Allah. These are those
elements and characteristics which have protected this
movement from becoming a political, material organization,
geared for obtaining material benefits, fame and authority, and
it has remained a purely religious movement aimtMl at attaining
the pleasure of Allah.
These principles and elements, which have been
considered essential for this movement, have been derived
from the Qura'n and Sunnah. They serve as its guardians to
obtain the pleasure of Allah and protect Deen (religion) and
their sources are the Qura'n and Prophetic practices and
traditions.
There was thus a need that all the relevant Qura'nic verses
and anadlth (Prophetic practices and sayings) be compiled in a
book. Praise be to Allah, that the second preacher of this
movement of inviting towards righteousness, Sheikh
Muhammad Yusuf (son of the first preacher, Sheikh Ilyas
Rahimatullahu 'alaihi) who had a very profound and
comprehensive knowledge of books of Ahadith, has collected
all the relevant principles, rules and precautions from their
original sources in the form of a book. He has been so
comprehensive and extensive that this book is not merely a
compilation of these principles rules and instructions, but
perhaps an encyclopedia, in which without being selective or
brief, all of these have been mentioned with their relative
importance. It is perhaps the will of Providence that the
writer's fortunate and worthy grandson Sheikh Sa'ad, (May
Allah prolong his life and bless him with further works of this
nature), has assumed the responsibility of publishing this book
for general benefit. May Allah Ta'ala grant acceptance to this
effort and service, and make it most beneficial. And this is not
hard for Allah.
