[Adapted from, Introduction to <strong>the</strong> Science <strong>of</strong> Hadith by Dr. Suhaib Hassan]<br />

The following is an example <strong>of</strong> a <strong>Hadeeth</strong>:<br />

Musaddad told us that Yahyaa informed him from<br />

Shu'bah, from Qataadah from Anas from <strong>the</strong> Prophet<br />

that he said, "None <strong>of</strong> you truly believes until he loves<br />

for his bro<strong>the</strong>r what he loves for himself."<br />

[Saheeh al-Bukharee]<br />

This means that <strong>the</strong> <strong>Hadeeth</strong> scholar Imam al-Bukharee recorded in<br />

his book, 'Saheeh al-Bukharee' <strong>the</strong> statement, "None <strong>of</strong> you truly<br />

believes…", which he heard from his <strong>Hadeeth</strong> teacher Musaddad,<br />

who heard it from his teacher Yahya, who was informed by his teacher<br />

Shu'bah that he heard it from his teacher Qatadah, a<br />

student <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Prophet's Companion, who heard it<br />

quoted by <strong>the</strong> Sahabee (Companion) Anas ibn<br />

Malik from Prophet Muhammad �.<br />
