الأربعون في الدعوة والدعاة

Praise be to God.
We praise Him, seek His help, and seek His forgiveness, and we seek refuge in God from the evils of ourselves and the evils of our deeds.
He whom God guides, there is no misleading him, and he who misleads, there is no guide for him.
And I bear witness that there is no god but Allah alone no partner for him.
And I bear witness that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger.
Then:This is a nice message that included forty hadiths from the collections of the words of the Prophet of God, may God bless him and grant him peace.
I chose these forty hadiths and compiled them in accordance with the Sunnahs of the hadiths in singling out forty hadiths in a “juz’,” according to a specific format, not in accordance with what was mentioned in many books on the tongue of the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace: “Whoever memorizes forty hadiths from my Sunnah on my nation I entered him on the Day of Resurrection in my intercession!!
This is a flimsy hadith, its paths revolve all around either an abandoned or a liar (1)!These forty hadiths show the method of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, in calling to God Almighty, and that it is a solid and solid method, in which there is no room for personal opinions, personal experiences, or psychological tendencies!One of the biggest motives that made me categorize this brief message: Many of the leaders in the call to prayer were heedless of the guidance of the Prophet, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, in it.
All of this is evidence of his saying, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him: “I have left you on Al-Bayda, its night as its day, and none will depart from it after me except a perisher…” (2).So whoever takes on such a pilgrimage, and persists with these arguments on the method of the Shariah, is secure in his religion the liability in the immediate and the future, and he clings to the most trustworthy handhold that does not break, and fears the Paradise by which he is relied upon, to be protected by its protection, hasten its blessing, and praise its outcome in the time and the end if he wills.
God (3).In my presentation of these hadiths, I have been keen on extracting them scientifically on the approach of the people of hadith, and in accordance with their sound and solid way of studying the chains of transmission and judging them according to what the modern industry requires, taking into account the brevity and non-lengthening of that.As for the texts of hadiths, I have endeavored to select them, and have been careful in classifying them, and I have not written of my words except what is necessary to link the hadiths as a series of continuous links, one inseparable from the other.
It is not feared that if these forty hadiths were taken with explanation and detail, and clarification and lengthening, this book of ours would have fallen into a nice volume, and perhaps that will happen - if God forbids it - in what we presume from time, if there is an expanse in life, and in time is ample.• And finally: I repeat, saying: I did not want anything from my books in this letter except to indicate the truth and guide to righteousness, and these two: brevity suffices in both of them!
So I ask God to help me in what I intended, and to spare me from trials, both apparent and hidden, for He is Hearing and He responds.
And Praise be to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds.Ali Hassan Ali Abdel HamidAl-Halabi Archaeologicalblue in:11 Rajab 1408 AHFebruary 28, 1988 AD
