Science of Hadith is a commentary of the book Nukhbatul Fikr by Ibn Hajar Asqalani and deals with the Usools or Science of the principles of Hadith. The current work is a translation of “Tuhfatud Durar” by Allamah Saeed Ahmed Palanpuri which is a commentary of “Nukhbatul Fikar” and not “Nuzha tin Nazar Sharah Nukhbatul Fikar” which is taught in the Darul Ulooms. However, the translation of “Nukhbatul Fikar” is given also.The subject matter is tedious for a lay person but good for a student and necessary for a scholar to know. However, any person reading will automatically conclude that the science and principle of Ahadeeth is a highly technical, super classified, totally systemised, extremely organized, well documented and a properly categorized field.
