Question:
The questioner says: Shaykh, what are the books of hadith that you recommend we read?
Answer:
There are many books of hadith, some concise and some detailed, and people differ in their ability to acquire knowledge and their qualifications. So, you should look at the concise books first, for example, Bulugh al-Maram and 'Umdat al-Ahkam. First, memorize them under the guidance of the scholars, who will explain them to you. Then, if you develop a greater desire, you move on to the detailed books. However, you must remain connected to the scholars. Do not engage with books of hadith, fiqh, or other books of knowledge except in connection with the people of knowledge who clarify and explain them to you. Yes.
