What is the opinion regarding Imam Al-Baghawi's book "Sharh Al-Sunnah," is it an authenticated book, and what are the books of Hadith that he explained in it?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
The book "Sharh Al-" by Imam Al-Baghawi is one of the greatest books in Islam. In it, Al-Baghawi selected Sunnahs and narrations (athar) concerning most chapters of the religion, and it is not a commentary on other books. It was authenticated by Sheikh Shu'aib Al-Arna'ut and his colleague, and their edition is considered the best.
