Mishkaat al-Masabih - Mishkaat al-Masabih which means A Niche for Lamps is an expanded version of Masabih al-Sunnah by Abu Muhammad ibn Abdullah   Khatib Al-Tabrizi (d. 741H) who was known as Muhyi As-Sunnah (Reviver of the Sunnah). Al-Tabrizi added to it the chains of transmission, the narrators and the authenticity of the Hadith. Thus, making it more beneficial to those not having an advanced knowledge of the science of hadith. The Collection is divided into twenty-nine books (Kutub) and each book is divided into several chapters (abwab). Thereafter each chapter is further divided into three sections (fasl). The Mishkaat has enjoyed wide popularity in the world of Islamic learning Since 516 AH when it was first compiled by Al-Tabrizi. Most of the Hadith are from the Sahih Sittah.
