Hadiyyat al-aḥbāb fī dhikr al-maʿrūfīn bī l-kunā wa l-alqāb wa l-anṣāb, (Arabic: هَدیةُ الْاَحْباب فی ذِکْر الْمَعْروفین بِالْکُنی وَ الْاَلْقاب وَ الْاَنْساب) is a book in Arabic written by Shaykh Abbas Qummi (d. 1359/1941). It was a summary of two other books of Muhaddith Qummi, i.e. al-Fawa'id al-Radawiyya and Ghayat al-muna, about the lives of the companions of the Prophet (a) and Imams (a) and some Shi'a and Sunni scholars and poets who were famous either for their kunyas, titles or lineage. He tried to make the reader familiar with their lives in brief and also mentioned Arabic and Persian poems and social and historical points as well. In the introduction of the book, Shaykh 'Abbas Qummi mentioned that the treatise of Hadiyyat al-ahbab is about the scholars of the two schools of Shi'a and Sunni and the companions of Imams (a) that he has adopted from his two other books, i.e. Ghayat al-muna and al-Fawa'id al-Radawiyya and that he titled it as Hadiyyat al-ahbab fi dhikr al-ma'rufin bi l-kuna wa l-alqab wa l-ansab. Hadiyyat al-ahbab is comprised of three chapters, each of which contains entries in alphabetical order. Chapter one: this chapter is about those whose names begin with "ab". In this chapter, 100 people are introduced with their attributes. It begins with Abu Usama Zayd al-Shiham al-Kufi and ends with Abu Yusuf Qadi Ya'qub b. Ibrahim, Abu Hanifa's student. Chapter two: About those whose names begin with "Ibn". Muhaddith Qummi has mentioned 174 scholars and described their lives. This chapter begins with Ibn Abi Jumhur al-Ahsa'i and finished with Ibn Ya'ish Muwaffaq al-Din, Ya'ish b. Ali b. Ya'ish. Chapter three: it is about those who are famous for their titles or lineages. The author has mentioned 511 people in this chapter beginning with al-Abi al-Hasan b. Abi Talib al-Yusufi known as Fadil Abi and ends with al-Yafi'i Abu l-Sa'adat 'Abd Allah b. As'ad al-Yamani.
