Question:
This sister who asked sent a set of questions saying: Your Eminence, I ask you to guide me to some books that you recommend reading in the sacred hadiths.
Answer:
We advise you to focus on the Qur'an and to read it frequently, for it is the Book of Allah, containing guidance and light. So we advise you and others to read the Qur'an frequently. The authentic books, such as *Riyad al-Salihin*, *Bulugh al-Maram*, *Umdat al-Hadith*, and *Muntakha al-Akhbar*, are beneficial for you. These are hadith books, most of which are good and authentic, so benefit from them. However, prioritize the Qur'an more; read the Qur'an frequently with reflection and understanding, day and night. If you review hadith books like *Riyad al-Salihin*, *Muntakha al-Akhbar*, *Bulugh al-Maram*, *Umdat al-Hadith*, *Sahih al-Bukhari*, and *Sahih Muslim*, there is great good and significant benefit in that.
The presenter: May Allah reward you and bless you, O Shaykh.
