Al-Rawdah al-Nadiyyah by Imam al-Qinnawji is a commentary on al-Durar al-Bahiyyah fi al-Masa'il al-Fiqhiyyah by Imam al-Shawkani. It is a valuable book for anyone who wants to see how rulings are derived from their evidence in the Qur'an and Sunnah without adherence to a particular school; it gathers questions whose evidence is sound, regardless of what is popular — for the truth is most worthy of being followed.
The Golden Notes are the notes with which the editor has adorned this blessed work: those of the scholar of Syria Jamal al-Din al-Qasimi, al-'Allamah Ahmad Muhammad Shakir of Egypt, and the hadith scholar Nasir al-Din al-Albani, may Allah have mercy on them all.
