Encyclopedia of the Canonical Hadith

This encyclopedic work on Islam comprises English translations of all canonical ?ad'ths, complete with their respective chains of transmission (isn'ds). By conflating the variant versions of the same ?ad'th, the repetitiveness of its literature has been kept wherever possible to a minimum. The latest methods of isn'd analysis, described in the general introduction, have been employed in an attempt to identify the person(s) responsible for each ?ad'th. The book is organized in the alphabetical order of those persons. These are the so-called 'common links'. Each of them is listed with the tradition(s) for the wording of which he can be held accountable, or with which he can at least be associated.Juynboll, G. H. A. is the author of 'Encyclopedia of the Canonical Hadith', published 2007 under ISBN 9789004156746 and ISBN 9004156747.
