Hadith Qudsi Browser

A hadith qudsi is a report the Prophet relates from his Lord in words other than the Qur'an's. Here is every hadith qudsi in the six books and the Muwatta of Malik, gathered with its narrations in each collection and arranged by theme; every narration is a page in the museum.

This build holds 117 hadith qudsi in 350 narrations from 7 collections. Texts are matn excerpts of at most forty words; titles and summaries are the museum's own wording and stay draft until a human reads them.

How it was gathered

Every matn of the seven collections was scanned for divine speech in the first person ("God said", "God says", "relating from his Lord" and similar), each hit was read to drop Qur'an quotations and Companions' words, close narrations were joined into one hadith, and the list was checked against the Forty Hadith Qudsi.
