Indeed the Book of the Sunan by the noble Imãm AN Dawud, Sulaimän bin Ash'ath bin Isaq bin Bashir bin Shaddãd, Al-Azdi, As-Sijistãni, who died in the year 275H, is one of the Six Books, and the first of the Four Books, among the most important of those books in which Hadiths are compiled. There are many virtues and benefits to this book which resulted in the scholars of Ijadith occupying themselves with the knowledge of Hadith since it first became popular, causing it to spread around the world.
