As a source of law, ethics and doctrine, the vast corpus of \u003ci\u003ehadith\u003c\/i\u003e continue to exercise decisive influence. Islamic scholarship has hence devoted immense efforts to gathering and classifying the \u003ci\u003ehadith\u003c\/i\u003e, and ensuring their authenticity. This book is the only introduction in English which presents all the aspects of the subject. It explains the origin of the literature, the evolution of the \u003ci\u003eisnad\u003c\/i\u003e system, the troubled relationship between scholars and the state, the problem of falsification, and the gradual development of a systematic approach to the material. This edition is a fully revised and updated version of the original, which was first published in 1961 to considerable scholarly acclaim. Muhammad Zubayr Siddiqi was Professor of Islamic Culture in the University of Calcutta.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49521933222161,"sku":"GOR004380662","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ WELL_READ \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49667805217041,"sku":"GOR008241277","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49731784442129,"sku":"NGR9780946621385","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51423611846929,"sku":"CIN0946621381G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0946621381.jpg?v=1751444955"},{"product_id":"hadith-literature-its-origin-development-and-special-features-edition1-book-muhammad-zubayr-siddiqi-9789366089485","title":"Hadith Literature - Its Origin, Development and Special Features (Edition1)","description":"\u003cp\u003eEmbark on a profound journey into the world of prophetic traditions with \u003cstrong\u003eHadith Literature: Its Origin, Development, and Special Features\u003c\/strong\u003e by the esteemed scholar \u003cstrong\u003eMuhammad Zubayr Siddiqi\u003c\/strong\u003e.
