Question:
He also inquires about the book, saying: Shaykh, what is your opinion of the book al-Jami' al-Saghir by al-Suyuti?
Answer:
It is a good book because it is an index arranged alphabetically, and it is taken from al-Jami’ al-Kabir, which is Jami’ al-Jawa’im. It is a collection of hadiths; some of them may be weak, some may be authentic, and some may be fabricated. Its purpose is collection, and then the scholar looks into the hadith, its chain of narration, and the words of the scholars regarding it.
