Importance of Preserving 40 Hadiths - Qazwini

Imam Sadiq said: “If anyone preserves forty of our traditions, God will raise him on the Day of Resurrection as a scholar and one deeply learned in Islam.” What is meant by these 40 traditions is authentic traditions of the Ahlul Bayt. What does the word ‘hafizha’ mean? The word hifz has several meanings, one
meaning is memorize. The linguistic meaning of hifz is to protect. What is the relationship between protecting and memorizing here? When you memorize something, you protect it from being lost.
What does it mean to protect 40 hadiths?
There are several dimensions:
1. The first level of protection is to memorize it yourself. One who memorizes 40 teachings, he has protected those teachings from being lost in history. A person who memorizes something will tend to practice it and teach it to others.
2. To record it and spread it. Had the companions of the Imam not preserve the hadiths, all would have been lost!
3. To take these 40 hadiths and put them into practice. This is the most profound. What kind of hadiths are we talking about here? From other narrations, we understand that the type of hadiths that should be memorized are those related to aqidah (usul al-deen) and moral standard ls of the Ahlul Bayt.
