Abstract EN

Study Subject: Reviewing of a Manuscript entitled: Honor of the Poor and Clarifying that They are the Princes, by Imam Muhammad bin Muhammad bin Abdul Rahman Al-Bakri Al-Siddiqi (952 AH) The author of the book collected forty hadiths on asceticism, contentment, patience, explanation of the virtue of poverty and the poor, the etiquette of the poor, and the state of the Prophet regarding certainty and the world.

The author compiled these hadiths from Sahih Al-Bukhari and Muslim, and he selected hadiths with clear meanings on agreement between Al-Bukhari and Muslim.

Research objectives: First: Serious desire to contribute to the service of the Prophet’s Sunnah.

Second: Benefiting from the manuscript author’s knowledge and picking the precious benefits of hadiths.

Research Methodology: The research employed the scientific method in verifying manuscripts in terms of studying copies and then comparing them, relying on a specific copy that is the main copy in the verification, with proper editing of the text, correcting the deletions, distortion, alteration contained in copies, and following the rules of spelling and punctuation.

Main Findings: - Following the example of the predecessors, as the author began his book with the hadith of: (Actions are but by intentions).

- Combining apparently contradictory hadiths and this is one of the benefits of objective study.

- It became clear through the author’s comments on hadiths or the outline of some of them that the author believes that the poor are the princes, as they are ascetics in this world and are characterized by patience and contentment with what God has given them, and the love of resorting to God and condemning the world, and this is the style of prophets.

Main Recommendations: - Care in reviewing the author’s books.

- Studying the author's belief through his writings.

- Studying the scientific implications of the author, and devise his approach to authorship.
