Al-Jami' al-Saghir

[4] The Hadith scholar Al-Munawi published a famous commentary entitled Fayd al-Qadir Sharh al-Jami` al-Saghir in 8 huge volumes and has become an important reference for the late hadith studies.

[5] As-Saghir is an abridgement of al-Suyuti's larger work al-Jami' al-Kabir.

His attempt to compile all of the remaining hadiths in one massive collection, the Jami al-Kabir, was sadly cut short after his passing.

What remained was published in 30 large volumes, showcasing around nine to ten alphabetic orderings of the prophetic traditions.

[6] Which in turn was further ordered and arranged in al-Mutaqqi al-Hindi's work Kanz al-Ummal.
