Reddit mentions of A Treasury of Hadith: A Commentary on Nawawi’s Selection of Prophetic Traditions (Treasury in Islamic Thought and Civilization)

CodeReaper,

All statements of the Prophet ﷺ are equal in that if he said it, we follow it without question. However, the recording of those statements is of varying authenticity. They range from certain statements we know for sure he didn't say (called mawdu' or fabricated) to ones we are sure he did say (called sahih or authentic).

The best place to start would be the compilation of 40 hadith written by Imam an-Nawwawi. Here's an edition with commentary or you can read them online here.

Hope that helps,

The most basic book in Islamic theology is Aqeedah Tahawiyyah. Here's a PDF.

Not quite a book, but after that, I'd recommend this audio series by Yasir Qadhi. Goes into some more tangible aspects of theology. After that, this commentary on Aqeedah Tahawiyyah if you really want to learn about detailed theological matters (this is more philosophical than practical).

It's a decent translation, but I prefer Zaki Hammad's The Gracious Qur'an

Study Qur'an, I'd stay away from. If you want some commentary, I'd recommend Abdullah Yusuf Ali's commentary here.

This is a better book of hadith to start out with.

I like this translation and commentary better.

This website has short little videos and commentaries if you prefer something online.
