The Meadows of the Righteous (Gardens of the Righteous) by Al-Nawawi contains a total of 1,896 hadith divided across 372 chapters, many of which are introduced by verses of the Quran.^[2][3] The text studies the Hadiths to translate the teaching from Quran verses into Sunnah, or practical tradition, in the form of Islamic jurisprudence and ethics.^[4] The Sunnah which is covered by Nawawi includes the practice of Sahabah, which was viewed by Malik ibn Anas as a "living Sunnah" who transmitted the rulings directly from Muhammad.^[4]
