The Scale of Wisdom

P a g e 2 |

Foreword Using the book Scale of Wisdom, I often found myself scanning through thousands of Hadith to find a given topic. This was time consuming and I realized that an English alphabetical index would make this process easier. My niece and daughter kindly undertook this task and spent precious time bringing it together.

To Zahida and Fatimah:

May Allah reward you amply and guide you always.

For all who use the Scale of Wisdom, may this make it more convenient.
