A Sufi Study of Hadith (Originally titled Haqiqa al-Tariqa min as-Sunna al-Aniqa) is a exceptional work of commentary on a selection of over three hundred reliable hadith. Maulana Ashraf Ali Thanawi, one of the subcontinent's greatest spiritual leaders and an author of unequalled prolificacy, translates, interprets, and then comments on each hadith from the perspective of tasawwuf, whether to explain a fine point of theology, or to discourse on morality, etiquette, behaviour, or the customary practices of Sufis. In this book, one encounters a side of Islam that is little known and less understood. For all seekers of the truth, & especially those keen to further their understanding of the teachings of the Prophet (saw) on tasawwuf-related subjects, Maulana Thanawi's work is truly invaluable.  Yusuf Talal DeLorenzo

In this book Mawlana Thanwi converses numerous subtle and complex themes of tasawwuf derived from the hadith of our beloved Messenger (saw). His erudite commentary demonstrates time and again how the principles of tasawwuf have their origins in the primary sources of Islam. Mawlana Thanwi's approach, like that of his illustrious shaikh, stresses the complete harmony between Shariah and tariqah and their interrelatedness.  

This volume revives the tradition of the earliest Sufis, who  related hadiths from the Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace) in such core works as Qushayri's Risala, Makki's Qut al-Qulub, and Abu Nuoeaym's Hilya al-Awliya. Imam Junayd has said, "The spiritual path is blocked shut, except to those who seek out the traces of the Chosen Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace); Say, This is my path: I summon to Allah upon entire insight, I and whoever wholeheartedly follows me [Qur'an 12:108]. Thanawi's work is a treasury of valuable hadiths for anyone on the true path, and a guide to many of the traditions (adab) of Sufism in the South Asia of his day. The powerful and vigorous translation of Yusuf DeLorenzo brings to life in English a great many realities of the way of spiritual realities.
