Al Adab Al Mufrad By Imam Bukhari

Al-Adab al-Mufrad

Al Adab Al Mufrad by Imam Muhammad ibn Ismail al Bukhari

Al Adab Al Mufrad by Imam Muhammad ibn Ismail al Bukhari is one of the most important classical works on Islamic manners, prophetic character and everyday etiquette. Compiled by the same great scholar who authored Sahih al Bukhari, this standalone collection gathers more than 1,300 narrations focused specifically on adab – how a Muslim deals with Allah, with people and with the world around him.​

Unlike general hadith compilations that cover many topics, Al Adab Al Mufrad is entirely devoted to refining character and behaviour. The narrations are arranged thematically so that readers can quickly find guidance for real‑life situations: honouring parents, maintaining family ties, dealing with spouses and children, respecting neighbours, visiting the sick, helping the poor, showing mercy to animals and much more. Each chapter demonstrates how the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ and his noble Companions translated faith into practical, beautiful conduct.​

This English hardback edition makes a foundational Arabic work accessible to a new generation of readers. Similar editions present 800+ pages of content, giving a comprehensive selection of the original material in clear, readable English. The language is simple enough for self‑study, yet rich enough to be useful for students of knowledge, Arabic learners and teachers preparing lessons or study circles. Being a hardbound volume, it is designed for regular use at home, in the masjid or in the classroom.​

For Muslims living in today’s fast‑paced and often confusing world, Al Adab Al Mufrad is especially relevant. Many of the issues addressed in this book – balancing rights and responsibilities within the family, showing kindness while remaining principled, guarding the tongue, avoiding arrogance and harshness – are the same challenges faced in modern societies. The hadiths in this collection give practical, prophetic solutions that can be implemented immediately, whether in personal life, work environments or community interactions.​

Imam al Bukhari is renowned for his precision and reliability in selecting narrations, and this work benefits from the same scholarly care. The collection includes both hadith of the Prophet ﷺ and reports from his Companions and early Muslims, offering not only statements but lived examples of adab in action. Readers see how early Muslims honoured their parents, forgave others, controlled anger, hosted guests and upheld trustworthiness in trade and daily dealings.​

This makes Al Adab Al Mufrad an essential book for:

• Families who want to build a home based on prophetic manners and mutual respect.​

• Students of hadith and fiqh who need a focused resource on Islamic ethics and social conduct.​

• Imams, khateebs and teachers seeking authentic material for khutbahs, lessons and youth programs.​

• New Muslims and young readers who want a guided introduction to practical Islamic character.​

At Lafz Bookstore, Al Adab Al Mufrad sits alongside other key Islamic classics, but it stands out as a dedicated manual of manners that can be read daily in small portions. A reader can focus on one chapter at a time – such as good treatment of parents, caring for orphans, or visiting the sick – and then consciously bring those teachings into their behaviour during the week. Over time this turns the book into a personal training guide for the heart and character.​

This edition pairs nicely with your other Lafz titles related to hadith and Islamic ethics, such as the Urdu sharh “Fazlullah Ul Ahad Sharah Al Adab Al Mufrad,” which offers deeper commentary for Urdu readers. Customers can start with this English text for direct access to the narrations and then move to the Urdu commentary when they want further explanation and scholarly insights.​

For any Muslim household, library or madrasa collection in India, Al Adab Al Mufrad by Imam Bukhari is a must‑have reference on how to live Islam with beautiful conduct in every aspect of life. This English hardback from Lafz Bookstore allows you to benefit from this timeless work in a durable, reader‑friendly format, delivered conveniently anywhere in India
