Muhammad Fuad Abdul Baqi

Muḥammad Fu'ād ʿAbd al-Baqī (Mit Helfa, Qalyub, 1882 – Cairo, 1968) was a prolific Egyptian scholar of Islam, a poet and a translator from French and English.[1] He wrote and compiled many books related to the Qur'an and the sunnah, including indices which give the reader access to the hadith of the Islamic prophet Muhammad.[2]

As editor, his 1955 Cairo publication provided the standard topical classification of hadith Arabic text in Sahih Muslim. The work was reprinted many times.[3] Likewise his 1952-53 publication in 2 volumes provides the standard for Sunan ibn Majah.
