A. Hasan, one of Persis scholars who develop the organization, is an initiator for the book to be used for Muslims in general and compulsory study of Persis members and its Islamic Boarding Schools in particular. Among the features of the book contains arguments of Islamic sharia law without any commentary and fatwa from the ulama '. The hadiths are presented concisely even the contents of the hadith have a common with other narrations outside the book. When many hadiths are not commented, the hadith is shahih (valid). As a result, the book is easy to learn by beginners, experts, and students of Persis Islamic Boarding School all over Indonesia. Nevertheless, the work of Ibn Hajar has weaknesses, such as if the hadiths are problematic due to the existence of commentary, the other narratives will have a different final evaluation, which is not explained by Ibn Hajar. From this point, Persis cadres give criticism toward the weaknesses, so the book was studied and criticized before putting into practice among the cadres.
