HadithLab — the Sunnah and its commentary. Nine hadith collections with the Arabic source text, gradings by hadith scholars, full chains of narrators and classical commentary. WHAT'S INSIDE • Over 65,000 hadith from nine collections: both Sahihs, the four Sunans, Musnad Ahmad, Muwatta Malik and Sunan al-Darimi. • Every grading carries the scholar's name and, where known, the book it comes from. A verdict without an author carries no weight in this field and is not shown. • Chains of narrators with a tap-through to each narrator: generation, dates, reliability rank and what the critics said about him. • Commentary: Fath al-Bari and other sharh works, together with the edition's own footnotes. Passages that depart from the creed of Ahl al-Sunnah are marked in the text itself, with the scholars' response beside them. • Takhrij: the same hadith across other collections, with honest counts — "first 40 of 192", not just "40". • Rare-word glossary and the benefits scholars drew from each hadith. SEARCH • By words or exact phrase — across the Arabic text and the translation. • By meaning: ask in your own words and find the hadith even when those words don't appear in it. • Jump by number: type "Bukhari 8". READING • Real Arabic typography: Amiri, Noto Naskh or Scheherazade, with full diacritics and correct direction. • A fully Arabic interface with mirrored layout — not translated labels, but a different reading mode. • Light, sepia and dark themes; text size and diacritics to taste. • Bookmarks, reading history and saving hadith for offline reading. ABOUT THE TRANSLATION The Russian translation is machine-assisted and serves as an aid, not a replacement for the original. The disclaimer sits next to every translation, not once in the settings. No ads, no accounts, no personal data collection.
