In this collection, Mulla 'Ali al-Qari gathers forty hadith that illustrate the extraordinary capacity of the Prophet (may Allah bless him and grant him peace) for distilling profound truths into a few short words. The diverse range of topics contained in the hadiths in this collection, from war to spirituality, are unpacked in a commentary by the 18th Century scholar, 'Allama as Sindhi.
