👳🏻‍♂️ Why 40 hadith? Where does this tradition come from?

We quote from Imam An-Nawawi's (may Allah have mercy on him) introduction to his eponymous work:

“To proceed – it has been related to us from Ali bin Abī Ṭālib, Abdullāh bin Mas‘ūd, Mu‘ādh bin Jabal, Abūd-Dardā’, Ibn Umar, Ibn ʽAbbās, Anas bin Mālik, Abū Hurayrah and Abū Saeed al-Khudri (may Allah be pleased with them) through numerous chains with varied narrations that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, "Whoever preserves for my nation forty ḥadīths concerning its religion – Allah will resurrect him on the Day of Resurrection among the jurists and scholars." In one narration it says, "...Allah will resurrect him as a jurist and scholar," and in that of Abūd-Dardā’, "...I will be for him, on the Day of Resurrection, an intercessor and a witness." In the narration of Ibn Mas‘ūd it says, "...he will be told, 'Enter by any of the doors of Paradise you wish,'" and in that of Ibn `Umar, "...he will be registered among the scholars and resurrected among the martyrs." But ḥadīth scholars have agreed that it is a weak ḥadīth despite its many narrations. 

“The scholars have compiled within this context countless collections. The first one I have known to do so was Abdullāh bin al-Mubārak and then Ibn Aslam at-Tūsi, the nurturing scholar; then al-Ḥasan bin Sufyān an-Nasā’i, Abū Bakr al-Ajurri, Abū Bakr Muḥammad bin Ibrāheem al-Asfahāni, ad-Daraqutni, al-Ḥākim, Abū Nuaym, Abū Abdur-Raḥmān as-Sulami, Abū Sa‘eed al-Malīni, Abū ‘Uthmān as-Sabūni, Abdullāh bin Muḥammad al-Anṣāri, Abū Bakr al-Bayhaqi and innumerable others from among both previous and later ones. And I have made istikhārah to  Allah the exalted concerning the collecting of forty ḥadīths following the example of those well-known imams and preservers of Islam. For the scholars have agreed upon the permissibility of acting on a weak ḥadīth in regard to virtuous deeds. But in spite of this, my reliance is not upon that ḥadīth but rather on his ﷺ statement among the authentic hadiths: "Let the one present among you convey to the absent" and his saying: "May Allah make radiant [the face of] a person who heard my statement and grasped it and passed it on as he heard it."

With 40 Hadith on Masculinity, we're continuing this well-known noble tradition.

🛠 What's the process for producing a book like this? How long does it take?

We spent more than four hours per hadith searching for the ahadith.

That amounts to 160 hours just in choosing which hadith to include.

Translation takes around four hours per thousand words for a first draft.

Then it goes to the editing department.

Then it goes through a final quality review, where Dr. Salah Sharief will make sure the English is impeccable.

Once all that is done, Dr. Salah and his team will write commentary on each hadith.

And that has to go through its own editing process.

So, conservatively, it'll take between 500 to 1000 hours to finish this book.
