Hadith Al Thaqalayn, the Deposed Will of the Last Prophet to Humanity

Toyib Olawuyi's fourth book refuting Shaykh Ibn Taymiyyah's Minhaj al-Sunnah addresses a major cause of concern for Ibn Taymiyyah and his followers: Hadith al-Thaqalayn - the traditional comment on the authority of the Qur'an and the family of the Prophet (pbuh). Historically, the shaykh and his disciples have either denied the authenticity of this crucial hadith or have offered misleading explanations about its message. In "Hadith al-Thaqalayn: The Deposed Will of the Last Prophet to Humanity", Olawuyi provides a thorough investigation of the various chains and versions of the hadith, and, using only the strictest Sunni rijali standards, clearly and methodically demonstrates both the authenticity and the importance of the hadith for Muslims.This research work addresses all four Sunni positions on the hadiths, with particular emphasis on the claims and submissions of Ibn Taymiyyah. This work prove, with abundant references, the existence and authenticity of Hadith al-Thaqalayn and Hadith al-Khalifatayn, in the most authentic Sunni books – including Sahih Muslim – with perfectly authentic chains of narration!
