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. 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.

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