ntroduction
To The Second Edition
All praise is for Allah; to Him belongs all that is in the
heavens and the earth; indeed, He (3) is upon all things capable. And may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon the teacher of mankind, Muhammad ibn 'Abdullâh, who was given the Qur'an and that which is similar to it. Allah (3) has clarified that obedience to His Messenger () is the same as obedience to Him. The Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah () is an explanation of the Qur'an and represents the second source of legislation in Islam. So whoever accepts from the Messenger of Allah () has accepted from Allah.
On the intellectual front in their battle against the truth, the enemies of Islam generally aim to raise doubts about the Sunnah of our Prophet(); therefore, we must realize how supremely important it is for us to be well acquainted with the Sunnah and its role in Islamic legislation. This book goes a long way to filling the void that has previously existed in this branch of knowledge; its author, Dr. Mustafâ as-Sibâ'ee (may Allah have mercy on him). called it The Sunnah and Its Role in Islamic Legislation.
With Allah's blessings, this second edition has been completed and all praise is for Allah (3). The author here presents the findings of a detailed study on many issues revolving around the Sunnah, and one will find that the contents of this book,

The
Sunnah
and its role in Islamic Legislation
The Sunnah and its Role in Islamic Legislation is a groundbreaking effort by Dr. Mustafa as-Siba'ee, for it has a completeness to it in two regards: first, the author manages to cover all topics related to the Sunnah its status, its legislative force, the stages that led to its recording, just to mention a few in a comprehensive and organized manner. Second, he presents the views of those that have attacked the Sunnah throughout history, detailing their arguments and then refuting them. Among those groups from the past were the Shi'a and the Mu'tazilah; today, they are mainly the Orientalists and those Muslims that are influenced by them.
Shaykh as-Siba'ee takes us through the historical development of the Sunnah, from the early stages of revelation to the recording of the Sunnah during the era of the great Imams of Hadith. Throughout that account, he highlights the contributions of the scholars in preserving the Sunnah and cleansing it from fabrications and lies. Shaykh as-Siba'ee gives a clear account of the revolutionary methods and scholarly principles that were established in order to authenticate historical reports and narrations. The author shows us that the fruits of that endeavor were the preservation of the authentic Sunnah and the birth of the Hadith sciences.
This book has been a perennial source of knowledge for Arabic-speaking students of Islam, for its clarity, readability, and insightful research. Now English-speaking students too have available to them this authoritative treatise on the Sunnah of our beloved Prophet Muhammad (may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him).
