What are the books of Hadith which you would advise us to read?

Question: 

"What are the books of Hadith which you would advise us to read?"

Answer: 

"Al-hamdu lillah [All praise is due to Allah], there are numerous books of Hadith. The well-known books of Hadith include the Two Sahih (authentic) Books of Hadith of 
  • Al-Bukhari, and 
  • Muslim
(and the) Sunan (Hadith compilations classified by jurisprudential themes) of 
  • Abu Dawud
  • Al-Tirmidhy
  • Al-Nasa'y
  • Ibn Majah
  • Muwatta' of Malik
  • Musnad Imam Ahmad, and 
  • Sunan Al-Darimy
There are also books of Hadith which are compiled by another scholars such as, "Al-Um" by Al-Shafi`y (may Allah be merciful to him) in addition to the books which were written by Fuqaha' (Muslim jurists) regarding the rulings of Shari`ah. The best of these books are the books written by Shaykh-ul-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah (may Allah be merciful to him) and his disciple, the noted scholar Ibn Al-Qayyim (may Allah be merciful to him). Their books are very useful and pay great attention to evidence and choosing the most preponderant opinion with regard to controversial issues. 

These books and the books of the Imams who worked in the field of Da`wah (calling to Islam) during and after the second half of the twelfth century in the Arabian Peninsula including the Imam and great scholar Shaykh Muhammad Ibn `Abdul-Wahhab (may Allah be merciful to him) and his descendants and followers. Their books such as 
  • Al-Durar Al-Saniyyah
  • Fath Al-Majid Sharh Kitab Al-Tawhid
  • Kashf Al-Shubuhat
  • Adab Al-Mashy ila Al-Salah
  • Thalathat Al-Usul
  • Al-Qawa`id Al-Arba`ah
  • Majmou`at Al-Tawhid
  • Taysir Al-`Aziz Al-Hamid, 
and Sharh Kitab Al-Tawhid" by Shaykh Sulayman ibn `Abdullah ibn Muhammad ibn `Abdul-Wahhab (may Allah be pleased with them) are very beneficial. Among the most important books of `Aqidah are: 
  • Al-Tadmuriyyah
  • Al-Hamawiyyah, and 
  • Al-`Aqidah Al-Wasitiyyah 
...by Shaykh-ul-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah, (may Allah be merciful to him). In addition to Sharh Al-Tahawiyyah by Ibn Abu Al-`Izz and Kitab Al-Tawhid by Ibn Khuzaymah (may Allah be merciful to him).

Shaykh 'Abdul-'Azeez bin 'Abdullah bin Baaz, may Allah have mercy upon him
