بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ
All perfect praise and thanks be to Allāh alone, the One, the Almighty, and the All-Merciful. Blessings and peace be upon Prophet Muḥammad, the last of His Messengers and Prophets, and upon his family, his Companions and all those who follow him in his footsteps until the end of time.
We ask Allāh to make this a source of benefit for us, our shuyūkh, and our deceased family members (may Allāh have mercy upon them), and may He accept whatever of goodness can be spread through this platform.
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللّٰهِ صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ﴿إِذَا مَاتَ الإِنْسَانُ انْقَطَعَ عَنْهُ عَمَلُهُ إِلاَّ مِنْ ثَلاَثَةٍ: إِلاَّ مِنْ صَدَقَةٍ جَارِيَةٍ أَوْ عِلْمٍ يُنْتَفَعُ بِهِ أَوْ وَلَدٍ صَالِحٍ يَدْعُو لَه﴾ وَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللّٰهِ صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ﴿مَنْ دَلَّ عَلَى خَيْرٍ فَلَهُ مِثْلُ أَجْرِ فَاعِلِهِ﴾
The Messenger of Allāh (peace and blessings of Allāh be upon him) said: “When the human being dies, his deeds come to an end except for three: Except for ongoing charity, beneficial knowledge, or a righteous child who prays for him.” [1] And the Messenger of Allāh (peace and blessings of Allāh be upon him) said: “Whoever guides someone to goodness will have a reward like who who did it.” [2]

About this site
Takhrīj al-Ḥadīth is a reference library for the study of Prophetic narrations. Every entry brings together the Arabic text of the narration, its English translation, the source and chapter reference, the takhrīj – the tracing of its chain of transmission through the ḥadīth collections – the gradings given by the scholars of ḥadīth, and selected scholarly commentary, each commentary in its own expandable section.
The library is organized into four sections: Aḥādīth, Fatāwā, Āthār, and Aqwāl. You can browse the collection by categories, search it in both Arabic and English, or look through the archives. The lectures page gathers Urdu audio lessons by a number of scholars, and our books are available from the separate bookstore.
