Mentioning some of the books relied upon in determining the grade of a hadith.

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : ... In the hadith, unfortunately, there is no [specific reference]; therefore, in this case, the student of knowledge must choose some of the reliable and specialized books on authentic hadith, such as "al-Sahihayn" (the two authentic collections) and similar works, or books of takhrij (tracing hadith to sources) whose specialty is distinguishing the authentic from the weak among the hadiths circulating in books of Islamic jurisprudence.
Now, do you have anything else? You have "Nasb al-Ra'yah" by Imam al-Zayla'i, "Takhrij al-Ihya" by al-Hafiz al-Iraqi, "al-Talkhis al-Habir" by al-Hafiz Ibn Hajar al-Asqalani, and "al-Darayah fi Ikhtisar Nasb al-Ra'yah" — also by him — and so on. It is these books of takhrij that generally undertake the task of clarifying what is authentic and what is not.
And peace be upon you.
