A note on the order and subject matter of the contents
المنهج المتبع في الببليوغرافيا
This is a brief look at the methodology I have used in the Bibliography.
1. All entries are in alphabetical order. The author’s name is followed by the title, which may be a book or an article in a journal or a chapter in a book.
2. Titles of books are given in bold and articles are in italics. A researcher will thus find all the writings of each author in the same place.
3. Abbreviations are used for well-known journals. A list of such abbreviations is also provided.
4. Each entry is classified into one of seven categories, denoted by abbreviations, to determine its subject matter. The categories and abbreviations are as listed below.
- AUT: Authenticity
Entries which deal with the Authenticity of the Sunnah or its importance, including discussions of Isnad and Matn.
- CAT: Catalogue
Bibliographical entries.
- CRI: Criticism
Entries that attack or defend the Science of Hadith. Most of the entries in this category were written by western orientalists.
- TAD: Tadween (Recording)
