Sunni Literature
Sunni Islam is the largest branch of Islam and the largest religious denomination in the world. It holds that Muhammad did not appoint any successor and that his closest companion Abu Bakr () rightfully succeeded him as the caliph of the Muslim community, being appointed at the meeting of Saqifa. This contrasts with the Shia view, which holds that Muhammad appointed Ali ibn Abi Talib () as his successor.

Sharia legal rulings are derived from these basic sources, in conjunction with consideration of public welfare and juristic discretion, using the principles of jurisprudence developed by the four legal schools: Hanafi, Hanbali, Maliki and Shafi'i.

Kutub Al-Sittah
(), also known as () are the six canonical hadith collections of Sunni Islam. They were all compiled in the 9th and early 10th centuries, roughly from 840 to 912 CE and are thought to embody the Sunnah of Muhammad. The books are the of al-Bukhari (), the of Muslim ibn al-Hajjaj (), the of Abu Dawud (), the of al-Tirmidhi (), the of al-Nasa'i (), and the of Ibn Majah () as the sixth book, though some (particularly the Malikis and Ibn al-Athir) instead listed the of Malik ibn Anas () as the sixth book, and other scholars list of al-Daraqutni () as the sixth book.
