Honorable Shaykh, this questioner says: What are the best standalone books on explaining the dhikr reported from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)? And what is your opinion of the book *Al-Ilm al-Hayb Sharh al-Kalim al-Tayyib*? Because we have heard that it contains contradictions?
The Shaykh:
The name of the book.
The questioner:
Al-Ilm or Al-Ilm al-Hayb Sharh al-Kalim al-Tayyib.
The Shaykh:
Al-Ilm, why?
The questioner:
Al-Hayl.
The Shaykh:
Al-Haym with a mīm.
The questioner:
With a bā.
The Shaykh:
Hayb? I know of this talk, and what does Hayb mean? Also, the explanation of the dhikr is found in the commentaries on the hadith in the Sunan and the Sahih, because these dhikr are taken from the books of hadith, and the books of hadith are explained in their respective places. There is also an old commentary on the dhikr by al-Nawawi. By Ibn ‘Allal al-Makki. Yes, an old commentary in five or six volumes, and it is available and printed on the dhikr of al-Nawawi.

May Allah reward you
