And His Excellency Shaykh Dr. Ṣāliḥ b. ʿAbd al-ʿAzīz Āl Shaykh (may Allah preserve him) produced “Al-Takmīl limā Fāta Takhrījuhu min Irwāʾ al-Ghalīl” (Supplementing What Was Left Unverified in Irwāʾ al-Ghalīl). Though modest in size, it is exceedingly precious; with it the benefit of Irwāʾ is brought to completion.
“Izālat al-Dahsh wa-l-Walah ʿan al-Mutahayyir fī Ṣiḥḥat Ḥadīth: ‘Māʾ Zamzam limā Shuriba Lahu’” by Muḥammad b. Idrīs al-Qādirī — [hadith verification] (published).
This edition appeared with the Shaykh’s verification; the publisher, the esteemed Shaykh Zuhayr al-Shāwish (may Allah preserve him), completed and expanded that work, as he explained in the introduction (p. 10).
The publisher distinguished the Shaykh’s citations from his own additions: the Shaykh’s references open with [Nāṣir] and close with [N].
Anything beyond that is from the publisher’s own comments and supplements to the Shaykh’s work.
He justified this, saying (p. 10): “so that each of us remains accountable only for his own contribution and statement.” End quote.
This is a sound procedure, especially since he sometimes completes a passage of the Shaykh with the Shaykh’s own words from his printed books such as Irwāʾ al-Ghalīl and the two Series. May Allah reward them both and place their efforts—made to propagate the way of the salaf—on the scale of their good deeds.
“Izālat al-Shukūk ʿan Ḥadīth al-Burūk” (Removing Doubts about the Hadith of “descending like a camel”) [authored].
It addresses the question of descending to prostration (burūk) in prayer, disputing Ibn al-Qayyim’s view in Zād al-Maʿād; the manuscript is missing.
“Al-Asʾilah wa-l-Ajwibah” (Questions and Answers) [authored].
Among its topics are: the ruling on reciting the Quran over the deceased; the ruling on the Mawlid; making up missed prayers; a woman attending Tarāwīḥ with other women; repeating Jumuʿah …
“Asbāb al-Khilāf” (The Causes of Scholarly Disagreement) by al-Ḥumaydī — [critical edition]. He did not complete it.
“Al-Isrāʾ wa-l-Miʿrāj: Citing Their Hadiths, Verifying Them, and Distinguishing the Sound from the Weak” [authored] (published).
See the forthcoming Ṣaḥīḥ al-Isrāʾ wa-l-Miʿrāj and the note thereon.
“Asmāʾ Shuyūkh al-Ṭabarānī fī al-Muʿjam al-Awsaṭ” (The Names of al-Ṭabarānī’s Teachers in the Muʿjam al-Awsaṭ) [authored].
They number roughly 800; beside each name he placed the numbers of the hadiths—according to his own numbering—so that one may identify the sparse narrators and the prolific ones, a feature especially useful with the lesser-known transmitters.
