Riyadh-us-Saleheen Arabic-English Vol. 1 & 2

Riyadh-us-Saleheen Arabic-English Vol. 1 & 2 — A Timeless Guide to Living Islam with Purpose

Riyadh-us-Saleheen Arabic-English is more than a Hadith collection—it is a lifelong companion for anyone seeking to live Islam with clarity, balance, and moral strength in the modern world. Compiled by the legendary scholar Imam Yahya ibn Sharaf al-Nawawi, this two-volume hardcover set brings together the ethical, spiritual, and practical teachings of Islam in a way that speaks to Muslims, reverts, and thoughtful non-Muslim readers alike.

Why Riyadh-us-Saleheen Arabic-English Vol. 1 & 2 Matters Today

In an age of information overload and moral confusion, believers often ask a simple but profound question: How should I live? Imam an-Nawawi answered this centuries ago by carefully selecting nearly 1,900 authentic Hadith that directly address sincerity, character, worship, social responsibility, and inner purification.

This is precisely why Riyadh-us-Saleheen Arabic-English remains one of the most widely read and taught Hadith works across the world. It does not overwhelm the reader with legal complexity. Instead, it focuses on actionable guidance—how to refine intentions, strengthen faith, improve relationships, and stay spiritually grounded regardless of time or place.

Each chapter opens with verses from the Holy Quran, followed by carefully chosen Hadith primarily sourced from Sahih al-Bukhari and Sahih Muslim, with additional narrations from reliable collections such as Muwatta Imam Malik. This Quran–Sunnah harmony makes the work especially powerful for daily reading, self-reflection, and group study.

A Book for Muslims, Reverts, and Thoughtful Readers

For practicing Muslims, this book acts as a mirror—constantly reminding the heart of sincerity (Ikhlas), patience (Sabr), gratitude, humility, and trust in Allah. For reverts and new Muslims, it provides a structured and compassionate introduction to Prophetic ethics without overwhelming technical jargon.

Even non-Muslim readers exploring Islam will find Riyadh-us-Saleheen Arabic-English deeply insightful. The emphasis on mercy, honesty, self-discipline, and social justice reveals Islam as a lived moral tradition rather than a set of abstract rules.

Faithful Translation & Scholarly Integrity

This edition of Riyadh-us-Saleheen Arabic-English Vol. 1 & 2 features a literal and carefully preserved translation by S. M. Madni Abbasi, presented alongside the original Arabic text. Special care has been taken to remain true to Imam an-Nawawi’s wording and structure, making it suitable for:

• Serious Hadith study
• Arabic–English comparative reading
• Halaqas, madrasas, and mosque libraries
• Personal daily reading and reflection

The side-by-side bilingual format allows readers to grow gradually in Arabic comprehension while relying on a clear and faithful English rendering.

Relevant Hadith & Quranic Connection

The very spirit of Riyadh-us-Saleheen is captured in the Prophetic teaching:

“The deeds are considered by the intentions, and a person will get the reward according to his intention. So whoever emigrated for Allah and His Messenger, his emigration will be for Allah and His Messenger; and whoever emigrated for worldly benefits or for a woman to marry, his emigration would be for what he emigrated for” (Riyad as-Salihin 1)

This aligns directly with the Quranic principle:

“Indeed, this Quran guides to that which is most upright.” (Quran 17:9)
