he first paragraph of the article is reproduced below:

There are a great many short hadith (traditions attributed to Prophet Muhammad) collections comprising forty ahadith (pl. of hadith). The most famous is the Forty Ahadith of Muhyi al-Din Abu Zakariyya Yahya b. Sharaf al-Nawawi (d. 631/1233). The al-Nawawi collection, actually containing forty-two ahadith, was aimed at the general public. This can be seen in the work’s brevity, and the fact that the ahadith act as his summary of Islam as understood by the ahl al-Sunnah wa’l-Jamaah (commonly referred to as Sunni Muslims), exploring the most important ideas and beliefs. The collection also contains many of the most famous ahadith in the Sunni canon, and so allows those members of society who might be daunted by weighty tomes such as the Sahihayn of al-Bukhari and Muslim (considered by most Sunni Muslims to be authoritative collections of ahadith), or who might find the works like the Musnad of Ibn Hanbal (a collection of ahadith with supporting chains of transmission) intimidating.

Al-Suyuti on the Merits of Imam ‘Ali
S. R. Burge
This article was specially written for The Institute of Ismaili Studies’ Website

مُساهمةموضوع: رد: Al-Suyuti on the Merits of Imam ‘Ali-Dr Stephen R Burge   Al-Suyuti on the Merits of Imam ‘Ali-Dr Stephen R Burge Icon_minitimeالثلاثاء سبتمبر 28, 2010 8:44 pm

These small collections of ahadith, often called ‘arba’un (lit. the forty) collections,
were obviously intended for the general public. This is, in itself, something of interest.
Firstly, it shows that the scholarly community recognised a need for the general public to
have such ‘mini-guides’ to the world of ahadith. Was this in reaction to misinformation
propagated by popular preachers and story-tellers? It is difficult to be sure, but their existence
seems to show that the scholarly classes hoped to influence the religious life of the general
public. Secondly, it reveals the extent of literacy in the classical period. The collections are
not for scholars; so who are they for and who could read them? Historical evidence would
suggest that literacy was not universal, but the existence of these short, popular collections of
ahadith indicates that the middle classes (merchants, civil servants, etc.) were interested in
reading this sort of material. Lastly, by selecting only a few ahadith, the compiler reveals
ideas and beliefs that he feels are important. We can learn much from examining what a
compiler included in a collection, especially when the material is limited in scope. With
fewer ahadith included, the compiler has to be much more selective. What can one learn from
the selection?
‘Abd al-Rahman Jalal al-Din al-Suyuti (d. 911/1505) is one of the most famous
scholars of the late Mamluk period. He worked in the dying days of the Circassian Mamluk
Sultanate, with the Ottomans taking control of Cairo within a decade of al-Suyuti’s death. He
was the son of a judge in Cairo and became an important, learned scholar, specialising in law,
hadith and exegesis. He wrote works on an extremely wide range of subjects, making him
one of the last great polymaths. He was also one not noted for his modesty, even claiming
himself that he was the mujaddid (one who is expected to revive Islam) of the age. This made
him rather unpopular with his contemporaries, especially al-Sakhawi, with whom he often
clashed violently. Al-Suyuti is famed for his extraordinarily large output, with estimatesranging from 500 to 900 works in total. The number of these works is partly so large, because
it includes a number of shorter works, including fatwas (opinions concerning Muslim law)
and short collections of ahadith such as the text translated below.
This collection, Al-Qawl al-jaliyy fi fada’il ‘Ali (The Clear Statements on the Merits
of Ali) is a collection of forty Prophetic ahadith, concerning Imam ‘Ali and his esteem in the
Sunni community. This makes the work particularly intriguing and shows that the Prophet’s
family was not only held in high regard by the Shi‘i community, but by the Muslim
community as a whole. Without knowing the religious beliefs of al-Suyuti, having read the
collection, one might suppose that the work was of Shi‘i origin. However, figures like Imam
‘Ali and Fatima also have exalted status amongst most Sunni communities, even if they do
not extend to incorporate all Shi‘i beliefs about them. Indeed, al-Suyuti also wrote another
collection, entitled Musnad Fatima al-Zahra wa-ma warada fi fadliha (The Narrations of
Fatima al-Zahra and what is narrated about her merits).

مُساهمةموضوع: رد: Al-Suyuti on the Merits of Imam ‘Ali-Dr Stephen R Burge   Al-Suyuti on the Merits of Imam ‘Ali-Dr Stephen R Burge Icon_minitimeالثلاثاء سبتمبر 28, 2010 8:45 pm

The present collection is one of a quartet on the merits of the first four caliphs, often
referred to as the Khulafa Rashidun (rightly guided caliphs). The work follows the typical
form of al-Suyuti’s collections, with the ahadith being drawn from textual sources, without
an isnad (chain of transmission) being provided. Al-Suyuti does, however, provide the
authority of each hadith and his textual source. The fact that al-Suyuti gives references to
where he has taken the hadith from also enables us to see the many different works that
include discussions of the merits of Imam ‘Ali. The main themes of the collection are:
(i) ‘Ali had an extremely close relationship with the Prophet
(ii) ‘Ali and other members of the ahl al-bayt have a place in heaven
(iii) ‘Ali had an important role in the community after the Prophet’s death
(iv) ‘Ali had an important part to play in the interpretation of the Prophet’s teachings
(v) The community and its members are defined through the way they treat Imam ‘Ali.
These points could be considered as being very ‘Shi‘i’, and they are certainly positions held
by Shi‘i Muslims. It is important, however, to note that al-Suyuti does not include any
reference or suggestion that Imam ‘Ali was the successor to the Prophet. Nevertheless, al-
Suyuti’s collection does show that Imam ‘Ali was held in high regard by the Sunni
community. The fact that al-Suyuti believed that the merits of Imam ‘Ali would be of benefit
for the general public, shows how important al-Suyuti believed them to be.

The Clear Sayings on the Merits of Ali
In the Name of God, the Merciful, the Compassionate.
Praise be to God! the Highest, the Greatest, the Protector, the Friend, the All-Powerful! I
extol Him, I give Him thanks, I repent to Him and seek forgiveness from Him. I bear witness
that there is no god, but God. I bear witness that our Lord Muhammad is the Messenger of
God, God bless him and grant him salvation, and also upon Ali, his family, his companions,
his supporters and his party.
Furthermore, this is a small collection of small drops in the abundant oceans which I have
brought together in a simple volume, which [describes] the resplendent virtues of our lord,
Ali, may God honour him, entitled The Clear Sayings on the Merits of Ali. I have included
forty short ahadith in it, following by the source from which they have been taken, and some
explanatory comments and the meanings of problematic [phrases]. By God! I ask that He
give me His approval, and that he bestow upon me His blessing of loyalty towards the love of
the Prophet’s family, the best goal.

Ibn ‘Asakir narrated it, and al-Bayhaqi [narrated it] in his al-Sunan, but he declared it to be

Ibn Sa‘d narrated it.
[26] [It is] on the authority of Ali that the Messenger of God (God bless him and grant him
salvation) said, ‘O God, you took Ubayda ibn al-Harith from me on the day of Badr and

me. You are the best of the inheritors.’

him salvation) said, ‘O God, witness! O God, have I conveyed [the message]? This [man] –

[his face].’

him salvation) said, ‘For me Ali is [the same] state as my head from my body.’

him salvation) said, ‘Ali is my brother in this world and the next.’
Al-Tabarani narrated it (God have mercy on him).
[32] [It is] on the authority of Umm Salama that the Messenger of God (God bless him and
grant him salvation) said, ‘Ali is with the Qur’an and the Qur’an is with Ali; you will never
be able to distinguish between them until they come to the Pool.’

grant him salvation) said, ‘Ali is the basket [‘ayba] of my knowledge.’
Ibn ‘Addi narrated it.
[Al-Suyuti comments:] Al-‘ayba with a fatha over the unpointed ‘ayn and a sukun over the
letter ya’, after it a letter with one diacritic point: The receptacle into which people put
whatever they need which is precious to them.

grant him salvation) said, ‘Ali is the gate of my knowledge – the one who will explain to my
community what I was sent [to proclaim] after [I have gone]. Loving him is faith, hating him
is hypocrisy, looking at him is mercy.’
Al-Daylami narrated it.
[39] [It is] on the authority of Ibn ‘Abbas that the Messenger of God (God bless him and
grant him salvation) said, ‘Ali ibn Abi Talib is a gate of forgiveness, whoever comes to him
is a believer and whoever leaves him is an unbeliever.’
Al-Daraqutni narrated it in al-Afrad.
[40] [It is] on the authority of ‘Imran ibn Hasin that the Messenger of God (God bless him
and grant him salvation) said, ‘Ali is from me and I am from Ali, and Ali is a friend of every
believer after me.’
Ibn Abi Shayba narrated it, and he declared it to be sound.
