About The Book

Sunan Abi Dawud is one of the six canonical collections (al-Kutub al-Sitta) of Sunni hadith, compiled by Imam Abu Dawud Sulayman b. al-Ashath al-Sijistani over a period of more than twenty years. Its approximately 4,800 carefully-selected hadiths are organised thematically by legal chapter, making it the most focused of the six on ahadith al-ahkam — the hadiths from which Islamic legal rulings are derived. Where Bukhari and Muslim insist on the very highest standard of authentication, Abu Dawud cast his net somewhat wider, including hadiths of merely hasan chain where the legal point was otherwise unsupported — and was transparent about doing so, marking such hadiths for the trained reader.

Abu Dawud's methodological transparency — his celebrated Risala to the people of Makka explaining his criteria — became a foundational document of the science of hadith authentication. Generations of commentators, from al-Khattabi (d. 388 AH) through al-Azimabadi (20th c. CE), have built sustained scholarly engagement upon the text.

About The Author

Imam Abu Dawud Sulayman b. al-Ashath al-Sijistani (202-275 AH / 817-889 CE), born in Sijistan in modern-day eastern Iran, was among the great traveling hadith scholars of the third Islamic century. He studied under Imam Ahmad b. Hanbal in Baghdad and traveled to all the major centers of hadith transmission. Of more than 500,000 hadiths he encountered, he selected fewer than 5,000 for inclusion in his Sunan — the most focused of the Six Books on ahadith al-ahkam (hadith of legal rulings).

عن الكتاب

سنن أبي داوود أحد الكتب الستّة الكلاسيكية لحديث السنّة، صنَّفها الإمام أبو داوود السجستاني على مدى عشرين عاماً ونيِّف. تَستوعب نحو ٤٨٠٠ حديث منتقى مُرَتَّبة على الأبواب الفقهية، فهي أكثرُ الكتب الستّة تَركيزاً على أحاديث الأحكام التي تُسْتَنْبَط منها الأحكام الفقهية. أَوْسَع أبو داوود دائرة القبول عن البخاري ومسلم، فيُدْخِل الأحاديث الحسنة عند انفراد الباب بها — مع التَّصْريح لقارئه الخبير. ورسالتُه إلى أهل مكّة في بَيان شروطه صارت وثيقةً تأسيسيّة في علم الحديث.

About the Contributor(s)

About the author

Abu Dawud al-Sijistani: Imam Abu Dawud Sulayman ibn al-Ash'ath al-Sijistani rahimahullah (202-275 AH / 817-889 CE) was born in Sijistan in present-day eastern Iran and rose to become one of the most eminent hadith scholars of the third Islamic century. He studied under Imam Ahmad ibn Hanbal in Baghdad - alongside contemporaries such as al-Bukhari - and traveled extensively to the major centers of hadith transmission across the Islamic world. Among his teachers were leading scholars of his era, and among his students were luminaries such as al-Tirmidhi and al-Nasa'i. From over 500,000 hadiths he encountered in his travels, he carefully selected fewer than 5,000 for inclusion in his Sunan, making it the most focused of the Six Books (al-Kutub al-Sitta) on ahadith al-ahkam - the narrations from which legal rulings are derived. He taught the Sunan in Baghdad and other major cities. His famous letter to the people of Makka explaining his principles of hadith selection became a foundational document in the science of hadith criticism.

About the editor

Muhammad Awwama: Shaykh Muhammad Awwama hafidhahullah (b. 1940 CE / 1358 AH) is a contemporary Damascene hadith master and Hanafi scholar, widely regarded as one of the most rigorous living authorities in the science of hadith. Born in Damascus, he dedicated his scholarly career to the critical edition and authentication of the classical hadith corpus. His authored work Maalim Irshadiyya li-Sinaat Talib al-Ilm is a celebrated guide combining traditional adab with practical guidance for the serious student of sacred knowledge. As an editor, he produced standard scholarly reference editions of major hadith collections, including the Musannaf Ibn Abi Shayba and Sunan Abi Dawud. He also compiled Min Sihah al-Ahadith al-Qudsiyya, a rigorously authenticated selection of prophetic hadith qudsi presented with full chains of transmission, documentation, and sources across the hadith literature. His editorial and authorial contributions have made him an indispensable name in contemporary traditional hadith scholarship.
