About The Book
Fadl al-Muwatta wa Inayat al-Umma is Sayyid Muhammad Alawi al-Maliki's celebrated short work on the virtues of Imam Malik's al-Muwatta and the Sunni community's care for this earliest of the canonical hadith collections. The work documents the rank of al-Muwatta in the Sunni hadith tradition (Imam al-Shafii's famous statement that no book after the Quran is more correct than the Muwatta), surveys the major commentaries and recensions, and treats the contemporary controversies surrounding the work — all in the elegant Hijazi register characteristic of Sayyid Muhammad's prose. A publication of the Dar al-Hawi imprint.
About The Author
al-Sayyid Muhammad b. Alawi al-Maliki al-Hasani (1365-1425 AH / 1944-2004 CE) was the supreme contemporary Hijazi sayyid scholar — Maliki in fiqh, Ashari in kalam, Sufi in his inner orientation, and the teacher of multiple subsequent generations of Sunni scholars across the Muslim world. From his home in Makka he taught, authored, and guided the global traditional Sunni revival of the second half of the twentieth century. His works — published as the Dar al-Hawi imprint — span fiqh, hadith, sira, Quranic sciences, and the defence of traditional Sunni-Sufi practice.

About the Contributor(s)
About the author
Muhammad Alawi al-Maliki: Muhammad ibn Alawi al-Maliki al-Hasani (1363-1426 AH / 1944-2004 CE) was among the foremost traditional Sunni scholars of his age, a Hasani sayyid descended from the Prophet through his grandson al-Hasan. He was born in Makka into the renowned al-Maliki family, in which five forebears had served as Maliki imams of the Masjid al-Haram, his grandfather al-Sayyid Abbas having been mufti and khatib of the Sacred Mosque. He memorized the Qurʾan in his youth under his father al-Sayyid Alawi, studied the traditional sciences with leading teachers of the Hijaz, and earned a doctorate from al-Azhar in Egypt while still young, gathering ijazas from scholars across the Muslim world. He taught within the Masjid al-Haram in his father's circle and at Umm al-Qura University, and after being removed from those posts he continued teaching from his home, where evening gatherings drew hundreds of students. Maliki in jurisprudence and Ashʿari in creed, attached to the Shadhili path, he authored close to a hundred works on creed, hadith, Qurʾanic exegesis, sira, and spirituality. His Mafahim Yajib an Tusahhah (rendered "Notions That Must Be Corrected") became a landmark defense of mainstream Sunni belief and devotion to the Prophet. He died in Makka and was buried at Jannat al-Muʿalla; his students carry his teaching across the Islamic world.
