The Forty Hadeeth of an-Nawawee

with the additions of ibn Rajab
Translated by Aboo Shaybah
(Revised Shawwaal 1434h/August 2013)

This is a collection of fifty comprehensive narrations selected from the immense body of
hadeeth literature which has been conveyed from the Messenger of Allaah (
). Ibn Rajab
(d.795h), in the introduction to his book Jaami al-Uloom wal-Hikam, explained that there were
three stages in the preparation of this collection.
Ibn as-Salaah (d.643h), in one of his classes, dictated twenty-six hadeeth to the students in
attendance. Each hadeeth he mentioned was comprehensive in nature although short in
wording a feature referred to as Jawaami al-Kalim.
Later on, An-Nawawee (d.676h) added another sixteen narrations resulting in a total of fortytwo hadeeth, and this is the collection which became known as al-Arbaoon an-Nawawiyyah
(The Forty Hadeeth of an-Nawawee). An-Nawawee also explained them briefly in his book
Sharh al-Arbaeen an-Nawawiyyah. However, some of the scholars who wrote explanations for
an-Nawawees collection noted that there were other hadeeth which deserved to be
mentioned, such as the hadeeth about faraaid (division of inheritance).
Thus, ibn Rajab saw it fit to add that hadeeth to the collection of an-Nawawee, along with
seven more narrations which he deemed comprehensive in nature, resulting in a total of fifty.
These hadeeth formed the basis for ibn Rajabs book Jaami al-Uloom wal-Hikam in which he
explained all fifty of them.

Ameer al-Mumineen, Aboo Hafs Umar ibn alKhattaab () said: I heard the Messenger of
Allaah (
) say, Indeed, all actions are only by
intentions, and every man shall certainly have
only what he intended. Thus, if someone
performed hijrah to Allaah and His Messenger,
then his hijrah was to Allaah and His Messenger;
and if someone performed hijrah to achieve some
worldly gain, or to a woman in order to marry
her, then his hijrah was to whatever he performed
hijrah to.

Umar ibn al-Khattaab () also said: One day

while we were [sitting] with the Messenger of
Allaah (
) there appeared before us a man
whose clothes were exceedingly white and whose
hair was exceedingly black; no signs of travel
were apparent on him and none of us knew him.
He approached and sat down in front of the
Prophet (
), with his knees touching against his
knees, placing the palms of his hands on his
thighs, and he said, Muhammad, tell me about
Islaam. The Messenger of Allaah (
) said,
Islaam is that you testify that there is none
worthy of worship except Allaah and that
Muhammad is the Messenger of Allaah, establish
Salaah (daily obligatory prayers), pay Zakaah
(obligatory charity), fast Ramadaan, and perform
Hajj at the House if you are able to do so. He
replied, You have spoken the truth. It
surprised us that he asked and then affirmed that
[the Prophet (
)] told the truth. He then said,
Tell me about Eemaan. The Prophet (
)
replied, It is you have Eemaan in Allaah, His
Angels, His Books, His Messengers, and the Last
Day, and to have Eemaan in al-Qadar (the Divine
Decree), both the good and the evil of it. He
said, You have spoken the truth. He then said,
Tell me about Ihsaan. The Prophet (
)
responded, It is that you worship Allaah as

said, Tell me about the Hour, to which he
replied, The one questioned about it knows no
more than the questioner. He further inquired,
Tell me about its signs, to which he replied,
That the slave-girl will give birth to her mistress,
and that you will see barefooted, naked, destitute
shepherds competing in constructing lofty
buildings. Then he departed, and I stayed for
some time. [The Prophet (
)] asked, Umar, do

al-Masdooq (who speaks the truth, and receives
revelation which is the truth) narrated to us,
The creation of each one of you is most
certainly brought together in his mothers womb
for forty days [in the form of a nutfah (drop)],
then he becomes an alaqah (clot of blood) for a
similar period, and then a mudghah (morsel of
flesh) for a similar period. Then an angel is sent
to blow the soul into him, and is commanded
with four things: to write down his sustenance,
lifespan, deeds, and whether he will be miserable
or fortunate. I swear by Allaah other than
Whom there is none worthy of worship that
one of you may indeed do the deeds of the
people of Jannah until there remains only an arm
span between him and it, then that which has
been written overtakes him and he does the
deeds of the people of the Fire and, thus, enters
it; and one of you may indeed do the deeds of

Aboo Abdillaah an-Numaan ibn Basheer (C)

said: I heard the Messenger of Allaah (
) say,
That which is lawful is clear and that which is
unlawful is clear, and between the two of them
are doubtful matters about which many people
do not know. Thus, if someone avoids doubtful
matters, he exonerates himself in regard to his
religion and his honor. However, if someone
falls into doubtful matters, he will fall into that
which is unlawful; like the shepherd who takes
his animals to graze around a private pasture, and
they are on the brink of grazing therein. Truly,
every king has a private pasture and, indeed, the
private pasture of Allaah is comprised of His
prohibitions. Verily, in the body there is a morsel
of flesh: if it is sound the entire body shall be
sound, and if it is corrupt the entire body shall be
corrupt; and, most certainly, it is the heart.

Aboo Hurayrah () said: The Messenger of

Allaah (
) said, Allaah is most certainly Tayyib
and He does not accept anything unless it is
tayyib (i.e. pure). Indeed, Allaah has ordered the
people of Eemaan with what He ordered the
Messengers as He, the Most High, has said: O
Messengers! Eat from the things which are tayyib
and perform righteous deeds [23:51] and He,
the Most High, has said: O you who have
Eemaan! Eat from the things that are tayyib which
We have provided for you [2:172]. He then
mentioned a man who undertakes long journeys,
dishevelled and dusty, stretching his two hands
out to the sky saying, My Lord! My Lord!,
while his food is unlawful, his drink is unlawful,
his clothing is unlawful, and he has been
nourished from unlawful sources, so how can he
possibly be answered? Reported by Muslim.

shall teach you some words: Be dutiful to Allaah
and Allaah will protect you. Be dutiful to Allaah
and you will find Him in front of you. If you ask,
then ask of Allaah; and if you seek help, then
seek help from Allaah. Know that if everyone
were to gather together to benefit you with
something, they would not benefit you except
with what Allaah had written for you; and if they
were to gather together to harm you with
something, they would not harm you except with
what Allaah had written against you. The pens
have been lifted and the pages have dried.

Aboo Maalik al-Haarith ibn Aasim al-Asharee

() said: The Messenger of Allaah (
) said,
Purification is half of Eemaan. The phrase alhamdu lillaah (praise be to Allaah) fills the Scale;
and subhanallaah (may Allaah be exalted from
every imperfection) and al-hamdu lillaah both fill
or fills that which is between heaven and
earth. Salaah is a light, charity is a proof, patient
perseverance is illumination, and the Quraan is a
proof either for you or against you. Every person
starts his day as a vendor of his soul, either
freeing it or causing its ruin. Reported by Muslim.

Aboo Tharr al-Ghifaaree () reported that the

Prophet (
) narrated from his Lord the
abundant in blessing and the Exalted that He
said: My servants, I have forbidden oppression
for Myself and I have made it forbidden amongst
you, so do not oppress one another. My servants,
all of you are astray except those whom I have
guided, so seek guidance from Me and I shall
guide you. My servants, all of you are hungry
except those whom I have fed, so seek food
from Me and I shall feed you. My servants, all of
you are naked except those whom I have
clothed, so seek clothing from Me and I shall
clothe you. My servants, you commit sins by
night and by day, and I forgive all sins, so seek
forgiveness from Me and I shall forgive you. My
servants, you can never do anything that can
harm Me in any way, and you can never do
anything that can benefit me in any way. My
servants, if the first of you, the last of you, the
humans among you, and the jinn among you, all
had the heart of the individual with the most
taqwaa among you, that would not increase My
dominion in any way. My servants, if the first of
you, the last of you, the humans among you, and
the jinn among you, all had the heart of the most
evil person among you, that would not decrease
My dominion in any way. My servants, if the first
of you, the last of you, the humans among you,
and the jinn among you, were all to stand
together at once and ask of Me, and I were to
give every individual what he requested, that
would not decrease what I possess except what is
decreased from the ocean when a needle is
dipped into it. My servants, it is only your deeds
which I record, and for which I shall recompense
you. Thus, whoever finds good, then let him
praise Allaah; and whoever finds other than that
then let him blame none but himself. Reported by

tahleelah [saying laa ilaaha illallaah] is a charity;
commanding the good is a charity; and
forbidding evil is a charity; and in your marital
relations is a charity. They said, Messenger of
Allaah, when one of us fulfils his desire he would
be rewarded for that?! He said, Dont you
realize that if he were to fulfill it in an unlawful
manner he would be deserving of punishment?
Likewise, if he fulfils it in a lawful manner then
he will be deserving of reward. Reported by Muslim.

Hadeeth 26
Aboo Hurayrah () said: The Messenger of
Allaah (
) said, There is charity due on every
joint of the body for each day the sun rises.
Judging justly or reconciling between two people
is a charity; helping a man with his mount, lifting
him onto it or hoisting his belongings onto it, is a
charity; a good word is a charity; every step that
you take towards Salaah is a charity; and
removing harmful objects from the road is a
charity. Reported by al-Bukhaaree and Muslim.

He said, Consult your heart. Birr is that about
which the soul feels at ease and the heart feels
tranquil. Ithm is that which wavers in the soul and
causes uneasiness in the chest, even if people
were to repeatedly tell you that it is lawful. A
hasan hadeeth reported from the Musnad collections of the two
Imaams, Ahmad ibn Hanbal and ad-Daarimee, with a hasan chain.

Aboo Najeeh al-Irbaad ibn Saariyah () said:
The Messenger of Allaah (
) delivered to us a
deeply moving admonition which filled our
hearts with fear and caused our eyes to flow with
tears. We said, Messenger of Allaah! It is as
though this is a farewell admonition, so counsel
us. He said, I counsel you to observe taqwaa of
Allaah, and to listen and obey [authority], even if
a slave were to assume leadership over you.
Verily, whoever among you lives long will see
great controversy; therefore, you must adhere to
my Sunnah and to the Sunnah of the rightly
guided khulafaa. Cling to it with your molar
teeth, and beware of newly invented matters, for
every bidah is certainly misguidance. Reported by
Aboo Daawood and at-Tirmithee, who said that it was a hasan
saheeh hadeeth.

fast Ramadaan, and perform Hajj at the House.

He then said, Shall I not direct you to the gates
of goodness? Fasting is a shield; charity wipes
away sins as water extinguishes fire; and the
prayer of a man in the depths of the night.
Then he recited Their sides forsake their beds
until he reached what they used to do [32:16-17].
Then he said, Shall I not inform you of the
head of the matter, its pillar, and its peak? I
said, Of course, Messenger of Allaah. He said,
The head of the matter is Islaam, its pillar is
Salaah and its peak is Jihaad. He then said, Shall
I not inform you about the root of that all? I
said, Of course, Messenger of Allaah! So he
took hold of his tongue and said, Restrain this.
I said, Prophet of Allaah, will we be taken to
account for what we say? He responded saying,
May your mother be bereaved of you! Is there
anything that throws people into the Fire upon
their faces or he said on their noses except
the harvests of their tongues? Reported by atTirmithee, who said it is a hasan saheeh hadeeth.

Hadeeth 35
Aboo Hurayrah () said: The Messenger of
Allaah (
) said, Do not envy one another; do
not artificially inflate prices; do not hate one
another; do not turn away from one another; do
not undercut one another in trade; rather, be
slaves of Allaah, brothers. A Muslim is the
brother of a Muslim. He does not oppress him,
fail him, lie to him, or hold him in contempt.
Taqwaa is here, and he pointed to his chest three
times. It is enough evil for someone to hold his
Muslim brother in contempt. All of a Muslim is
inviolable to another Muslim: his blood,
property, and honor. Reported by Muslim.

Hadeeth 36
Aboo Hurayrah () narrated that the Prophet
(
) said: Whoever removes a hardship from a
mumin in this world, Allaah will remove a
hardship from him of the Day of Resurrection.
Whoever helps a person in financial difficulty,
Allaah will makes things easy for him in this
world and the Hereafter. Whoever covers a
Muslim, Allaah will cover him in this world and
the Hereafter. Allaah will aid His servant so long
as he aids his brother. And whoever traverses a
path in order to seek knowledge, Allaah will
make easy for him a path to Jannah. No people
gather together in one of the Houses of Allaah,
reciting the Book of Allaah and studying it
among themselves, except that tranquility
descends upon them, mercy envelops them, the
angels surround them, and Allaah mentions them
amongst those who are with Him. And whoever
is held back by his actions, he will not be
hastened forward by his lineage. Reported by Muslim
with this wording.

Hadeeth 37
Ibn Abbaas (C) narrated that the Messenger of
Allaah (
) narrated about his Lord, the Most
Sublime and Exalted: Verily, Allaah has written
down the good deeds and the evil deeds, and
then explained: if someone intends to perform a
good deed, but does not do it, then Allaah writes
it down with Him as a complete good deed; and
if he intends to perform it, and does actually
perform it, then Allaah writes it down with Him
as ten good deeds, up to seven hundred times,
up to many times multiplied; and if he intends to
perform an evil deed, but does not do it, then
Allaah writes it down with Him as a complete
good deed; and if he intends it, and actually
performs it, then Allaah writes it down as one
single evil deed. Reported by al-Bukhaaree and Muslim in

Aboo Hurayrah () said: The Messenger of
Allaah (
) said, Verily Allaah, the Exalted, has
said: Whosoever shows enmity to a Walee of
Mine, then I have declared war against him. My
servant does not draw near to Me with anything
more beloved to Me than the religious duties I
have obligated upon him; and My servant
continues to draw near to Me with optional
deeds until I love him; and when I love him, I
am his hearing with which he hears, his sight
with which he sees, his hand with which he
strikes, and his foot with which he walks. If he
were to ask something of Me, I would surely give
it to him; and if he were to seek refuge with Me,
I would surely grant him refuge. Reported by al-

Anas () said: I heard the Messenger of Allaah
(

Adam, as long as you invoke Me and place your
hope in Me, I shall forgive you for what you
have done, and I shall not mind. O Son of
Adam, if your sins were to reach the clouds of
the sky and you then asked forgiveness from Me,
I would forgive you. O Son of Adam, if you were
to come to Me with sins nearly as great as the
Earth, and then meet Me not having ascribed any
partner to Me, I would bring you forgiveness
nearly as great as it. Reported by at-Tirmithee, who said
it is a hasan [ghareeb] hadeeth.

Hadeeth 45
Jaabir ibn Abdillaah narrated that he heard the
Messenger of Allaah (
) say, in the year of the
Conquest while he was in Makkah, Allaah and
His Messenger have forbidden the sale of
intoxicants, meat of dead animals which have not
been properly slaughtered, pigs, and idols. It
was said: Messenger of Allaah, what about the
fat of dead animals? It is used in caulking ships,
varnishing hides, and people use it in their
lamps? The Prophet (
) said: No; it is
unlawful. He (
) then added: May Allaah curse
the Jews! Allaah indeed forbade them from the
fat, so they melted it, then sold it, and used the
money obtained from its sale. Reported by alBukhaaree and Muslim.

Hadeeth 46
Aboo Burdah reported from his father, Aboo
Moosaa al-Asharee (), that the Prophet (
)
had sent him to Yemen and he asked [the
Prophet (
)] about certain drinks which used to
be prepared there. [The Prophet (
)] said, What
are they? Aboo Moosaa said: al-Bit and alMizr. Aboo Burdah was asked, What is al-Bit?
He said: al-Bit is an alcoholic drink made from
honey, and al-Mizr is an alcoholic drink made
from barley. The Prophet (
) said: Every
intoxicant is forbidden. Reported by al-Bukhaaree.

Hadeeth 47
Al-Miqdaam ibn Madeekarib said: I heard the
Messenger of Allaah (
) saying, A human being
has never filled a vessel worse than his stomach.
It suffices the son of Aadam to consume a few
mouthfuls which would keep his back straight.
Nonetheless, if it has to be more, then one third
for his food, one third for his drink, and one
third for his breathing. Reported by al-Imam Ahmad, atTirmithee, al-Nasaaee and Ibn Maajah. At-Tirmithee said it is a
hasan hadeeth.
