About Abu Dawud: 
Abu Dawood Sulayman ibn Ash`ath Azdi Sijistani, commonly known as Abu Dawud, was a noted Arab collector of prophetic hadith, and wrote the third of the six canonical hadith collections recognized by Sunni Muslims, Sunan Abu Dawood. He was born in Sistan, in east of Iran, (then Persia) ancestorally hailing from the Yemeni Arab tribe of Azd in 817-18, and died in 889 in Basra. Widely travelled among scholars of hadith, he went to Iraq, Egypt, Syria, Hijaz, Khurasan, Nishapur, and Marv among other places in order to collect hadith. He was primarily interested in jurisprudence, and as a result the collection by him focuses largely on legal hadith. Out of about 500,000 hadith, he chose 4,800 for inclusion in his work.

### 3/5 — Hadith 2122 is missing

*2014-05-24*

Hadith 2122 is missing.

### 4/5 — Nice app

*2013-02-04*

Alhamdulila.

### 2/5 — Sunan Abu Daawud

*2013-01-06, version 1.0*

Good, but could be better still. The main deficiency now is the absolute absence of the Arabic script. Without the Arabic script, the English translation makes little sense. Also, the translation should bear headings and sub-headings for ease of reference for the reader.

### 4/5 — Good app.

*2012-08-30*

What I would like to see are the duas in Arabic form plus there meaning.  The book mark is also a little confusing.

Salam

### 5/5 — Review

*2012-08-07, version 1.0*

### 5/5 — الله اكبر

*2012-03-03, version 1.0*

May ALLAH reward those who made this App. Also the others are MashaALLAH fiqh sahih bukari ...... MashaALLAH

### 4/5 — Great app but...

*2012-02-02*

I enjoy using this app, I have only one issue with this app and the other books of Hadith, at one time you could post to FB directly from the app, now you always get an error code when trying to do so. If you would kindly fix that issue it would be greatly appreciated.
