In The Name Of Allah,

The Most Compassionate, The Most Merciful

Forty Hadith Qudsi

Introduction 

The following is a collection of 40 Hadith Qudsi. But what is Hadith Qudsi and how do they differ from other Hadith? The following discussion is given in the introduction to the book titled "Forty Hadith Qudsi" published by: Revival of Islamic Heritage Society, Islamic Translation Center, P.O.Box 38130, Aldahieh, Kuwait.

Hadith Qudsi are the sayings of the Prophet Muhammad (Peace and Blessings of Allah [The Most High] be upon him) as revealed to him by the Almighty Allah. Hadith Qudsi (or Sacred Hadith) are so named because, unlike the majority of Hadith which are Prophetic Hadith, their authority (Sanad) is traced back not to the Prophet but to the Almighty. 

Among the many definitions given by the early scholars to Sacred Hadith is that of as-Sayyid ashSharif al-Jurjani (died in 816 A.H.) in his lexicon At-Tarifat where he says:"A Sacred Hadith is, as to the meaning, from Allah the Almighty; as to the wording, it is from the messenger of Allah. It is that which Allah the Almighty has communicated to His Prophet through revelation or in dream, and he, peace be upon him, has communicated it in his own words. Thus Qur'an is superior to it because, besides being revealed, it is His wording."

Hadith Qudsi 1:

On the authority of Abu Hurayrah (may Allah [The Most High] be pleased with him), who said that the Messenger of Allah [The Most High] said: 

When Allah [The Most High] decreed the Creation He pledged Himself by writing in His book which is laid down with Him: My mercy prevails over my wrath. 

It was related by Muslim (also by al-Bukhari, an-Nasa'i and Ibn Majah).

DEED GRANTED TO TAMIM-UD-DARI(Raziallah AnhoA) - LETTERS OF PROPHET MUHAMMAD

Letters & Treaties of Muhammad the Messenger of Allah

DEED GRANTED TO TAMIM-UD-DARI(Raziallah AnhoA)

In the name Of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful.

Muhammad, the Prophet of Allah, has conferred the ownership of Baite Habroon, Baite Aenoon, Al Martoom and Baite Ibraheem to Tamim-ud-Dari and his companions. Whatever be therein, shall be theirs.

After them, their descendants shall be their owners.

Whoever will try to deprive them of this ownership, curse of Allah and His angels be on him.

Seal: Allah's Prophet Muhammad

Note: Tamimud-Dari, a Christian hermit of Palestine, presented himself, along with a man of his tribe, to the Holy Prophet (Sal Allaho Alehe Wasallam) and embraced Islam. He was so sure of the righteous of Islam and its rapid spread, that he requested the Holy Prophet (Sal Allaho Alehe Wasallam) to give the ownership deed, in respect of Baite Habroon, etc., although at the time the Quraish had made life for the Holy Prophet (Sal Allaho Alehe Wasallam) and his companion miserable and extremely difficult. The Holy Prophet (Sal Allaho Alehe Wasallam) was gracious enough to comply with his request. When the latter returned after the battle of Tabuk, Tamim-ud-Dari again presented himself to the Prophet (Sal Allaho Alehe Wasallam) and requested for the renewal of the deed. The above document was given in compliance with the request.
