1. The Whole Quran
In the Quran, God commanded the Prophet to challenge all of creation to create a book of the stature of the Quran:
“Say: ‘If all mankind and the jinn would come together to produce the like of this Quran, they could not produce its like even though they exerted all and their strength in aiding one another.’” (Quran 17:88)
2. Ten Chapters
Next, God made the challenge ostensibly easier by asking those who denied its divine origin to imitate even ten chapters of the Quran:
“Or do they say that he has invented it? Say (to them), ‘Bring ten invented chapters like it, and call (for help) on whomever you can besides God, if you are truthful.” (Quran 11:13)
3. One Chapter
This final challenge was to produce even a single chapter to match what is in the Quran, whose shortest chapter, al-Kawthar, consists of only three verses:
“And if you all are in doubt about what I have revealed to My servant, bring a single chapter like it, and call your witnesses besides God if you are truthful.” (Quran 2:23)
These challenges were not just empty words with no one caring to prove them wrong. Prophet Muhammad’s call to monotheism, to the abolition of idolatry in all its forms, and to the equality of slaves and their masters threatened the whole socio-economic framework of Mecca society in general, and the position of the ruling Quraishee tribe from which the Prophet came in particular. Mecca, the trading center of Arabia, as well as its spiritual center, desperately wanted to stop the spread of Islam. Yet all that the Prophet’s opponents had to do to crush the movement was to make up a single chapter like any one of those which the Prophet and his followers were reciting to the people. A number of Quraishee orators and poets tried to imitate the Quran, but they failed. They then resorted to offering him vast amounts of wealth, the position of king over them, and the most noble and beautiful of their women in exchange for his promise to stop inviting people to Islam. He responded to them by reciting the first thirteen verses of Chapter Fussilat, until they asked him to stop.[1] The Quraish also resorted to torturing their slaves and relatives who had embraced Islam in a vain attempt to cause them to revert to paganism. Later they organized an economic boycott against the Prophet his followers and the members of his clan, Banu Hashim, in an attempt to starve them into submission. But even this plan eventually failed. Finally, they plotted to kill him in his home by sending armed young men from each of the clans of Quraish in order that the guilt of his murder be shared by all the clans, making revenge by the Prophet’s clan impossible.
However, God enabled the Prophet and his followers to flee Mecca and join a new band of converts who had arisen among the tribes of a city to the north called Yathrib. Islam spread rapidly through the clans of Yathrib, and within a year Muslims became the city’s majority. Prophet Muhammad was then made the ruler, and the name of the city was changed to Medina an-Nabi (The City of the Prophet may God praise him), which was then shortened to “Medina.” Over the next eight years, the clans of Mecca and its neighboring lands mounted a series of unsuccessful battle campaigns against the emerging Muslim state in Medina, which ended with the Muslim invasion of Mecca itself.
All of this bloodshed could have been avoided if only the Quraish and their allies had been able to produce a mere three lines of poetry or flowing prose similar to the shortest chapter of the Quran. Hence, there can be no doubt about the inimitability of the Quran’s literary style, about the miracle of its rhyme and the marvel of its rhythm.
It has been suggested that the inimitability of the Quran is not necessarily unique, for great English poets like Shakespeare, Chaucer, or great poets in any language tend to have distinctly unique styles which set them apart from their contemporaries. However, if, for example, some leading poet of today were to make an in-depth study of Shakespeare’s writings and write a sonnet in Shakespeare’s style in old ink and on old paper, then claim that he had discovered a lost poem of Shakespeare’s, the literary world would probably accept this claim, even after careful study. Thus, even the greatest of poets could be imitated; no matter how unique his style was, just as the famous painters have been imitated. [In fact, some English scholars consider much of what has been attributed to Shakespeare to have been written by his contemporary, Christopher Marlowe.] The Quran, however, is way above this level, as attempts to forge chapters have been made throughout the ages, yet none has withstood close scrutiny. And, as was mentioned before, the incentive to imitate the Quran was more intense during the time of its revelation when literally skills were at their peak than at any other time, yet there was no successful attempt.

Yahya ibn Sharaf an-Nawawi | Language: English | Format: PDF | Pages: 16 | Size: 1 MB
The Collection Of An-Nawawi 40 Hadith: This small book contains 40 renowned Ahadith collected by Imam An-Nawawi which gained popularity through centuries.
Introduction
All Praise is due to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds, the [One Who] Sustains the Heavens and Earths,
Director of all that is created, who sent the Messengers (may the peace and blessings of Allah be
upon all of them) to rational beings, to guide them and explain the religious laws to them with clear
proofs and undeniable arguments. I praise Him for all of His bounties. I ask Him to increase His
Grace and Generosity. I bear witness that there is none worthy of worship except Allah alone, who
has no partner, the One, Who Subdues, the Generous, the Forgiving. I bear witness that our leader
Muhammad is His servant and Messenger, His beloved and dear one, the best of all creation. He
was honoured with the Glorious Qur’an that has been an enduring miracle throughout the years.
He was also sent with his guiding Sunnah that shows the way for those who seek guidance. Our
leader Muhammad has been particularised with the characteristic of eloquent and pithy speech,
and simplicity and ease in the religion. May the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, the
other Prophets and Messengers, all of their families and the rest of the righteous.
To proceed: we have narrated, through many chains (isnad, pl. asaneed) and various narrations,
from Ali ibn Abee Talib, Abdullah ibn Masood, Muadh ibn Jabal, Abu ad-Darda, [Abdullah] ibn
Umar, [Abdullah] ibn Abbas, Anas ibn Malik, Abu Hurayrah and Abu Sa’eed al-Khudree — may
Allah be pleased with all of them — that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be
upon him) said, “Whoever preserves for my ummah forty hadeethrelated to the religion, Allah will
then resurrect him in the company of the pious and the scholars.” Another narration states: “Allah
will raise him as an erudite and learned scholar.” In the narration from Abu ad-Darda, it is stated:
“On the Day of Resurrection, I will be an intercessor and witness for him.” In the narration from
Ibn Masood it is stated that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, “It will
be said to him ‘Enter Paradise through any door you wish.’ ” In the narration from Ibn Umar, one
finds the words: “He will be recorded among the company of the scholars and will be resurrected in
the company of the martyrs.” [However,] the scholars of hadeeth agree that, although this hadeeth
has numerous chains, it is weak [i.e., dae’ef, and hence cannot be used as a Shareeah proof].
The scholars (may Allah be pleased with them) have compiled innumerable works of this nature [i.e.,
collections of forty hadeeth]. The first one that I know of who compiled such a work was Abdullah
ibn al-Mubarak. After him came ibn Aslam at-Toosee, a pious scholar. Then came al-Hasan ibn
Sufyan an-Nasa’ee, Abu Bakr al-Aajurree, Abu Bakr Muhammad ibn Ibraheem al-Asfahanee, ad-
Daraqutnee, al-Hakim, Abu Nu’aim, Abu Abdur-Rahman as-Sulamee, Abu Sa’eed al-Maleenee,
Abu ’Uthmaan as-Saboonee, Abdullah ibn Muhammad al-Ansaree, Abu Bakr al-Baihaqee and
countless others both from the earlier and later times.
Scholars have compiled forty hadeeth on faith and belief (usul ), on practical matters (furoo), on
jihad, on austerity (zuhd), on etiquette (adab), and even on sermons (khutbahs). All of these
[collections] were concerning righteous aims. May Allah be pleased with those who sought them.
However I have found it best to collect together forty hadeeth which are more important than all of
those. These forty hadeeth incorporate all of those separate topics. In fact, each hadeeth is by itself
a great general precept from the foundations of the religion. Some scholars state that all of Islam
revolves around these hadeeth. Some have said, about a particular hadeeth, that they are one-half
of Islam, one-third of Islam and so forth.
I have committed myself to including only authentic hadeeth (saheeh or hasan) in these forty
hadeeth. The majority of them are from Saheeh al-Bukhari or Saheeh Muslim. I have mentioned
them without their chain of narrators in order for it to be easier to memorise them and thus more
[people] will be able to benefit from them, Allah willing. After the hadeeth, I included a section on
the meanings of the obscure expressions found in the hadeeth.
Everyone who desires and looks forward to the Hereafter must be familiar with these hadeeth because
they cover the most important aspects of the religion and offer direction to all forms of obedience
of Allah. This is clear to anyone who ponders these hadeeth.
I rely only upon Allah and I entrust my affair only to Him. To Him is all Praise and Grace, from
Him is Guidance and protection from error.
Hadeeth 1
On the authority of ameer ul -mumineen (the commander of the faithful), abu hafs Umar ibn
al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him), who said:
I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) say, “Actions
are but by intentions and every man shall have only that which he intended. Thus he
whose migration (hijrah from Makkah to Madina) was for Allah and His Messenger,
his migration was for Allah and His Messenger, and he whose migration was to achieve
some worldly benefit or to take some woman in marriage, his migration was for that for
which he migrated.”
It is related by the two imams of the scholars of hadeeth, Abu Abdullah Muhammad ibn Ismael
ibn Ibraheem ibn al-Mugheera ibn Bardizbah al-Bukhari and Abu-l-Husain Muslim ibn al-Hajjaj
ibn Muslim al-Qushairee an-Naisaboree, in their two Saheehs, which are the soundest of compiled
books [i.e., the most truthful books after the Book of Allah, since the Qur’an is not ‘compiled’].

There are people who claim they have faith in Islam and are fairly acquainted with the Qur’an, yet they readily disregard some of its rulings. According to popular "religion," those violating the fundamental commandments may be plagued by pangs of conscience, but neglect of those to which people give little importance will not cause such discomfort, although they are also part of the Qur’an.The purpose of this book is to remind people who have not realized their error or considered the penalty such an attitude will entail and summon them to live by the true principles of Islam, for Allah declares that man is responsible for all the commandments in the Qur’an, and warns that those who do not pay heed to His commandments will face torment in the Hereafter:
So do you believe in part of the Scripture and disbelieve in part? Then what is the recompense for those who do that among you except disgrace in worldly life; and on the Day of Resurrection they will be sent back to the severest of punishment. And Allah is not unaware of what you do. (Surat al-Baqara; 85)
