Description
My teacher received it from his teacher, and he from his predecessor; thus, the prophetic knowledge was narrated through an unbroken chain of trust and devotion.”
This is the journey of a seeker of knowledge -the muhaddith- and the story of his quest for the Prophet’s legacy. From Samarkand to Bukhara, Basra to the Haramayn, his path is marked by both ease and hardship, his only companion a journal-a risala that chronicles his pilgrimage. Life fades, but the written word endures.
In Gathering Words, the author blends fiction and reality, shifting perspectives between an omniscient observer and the intimate reflections of a young scholar in the second century Hijri.
