After the Industrial Revolution, the fifth phase of human civilization i.e. the Age of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) is emerging. In accordance with this advancement, the Islamic world has started looking at how Islamic religious education can be easily and effectively delivered via useful ICT applications such as websites, digital libraries and specific software packages to name a few. Technological advancement and communication and cyberspace have indeed given a new dimension to the study of hadith in a digital manner. In other words, it is also considered an effort to strengthen, uphold and preserve the texts of hadith in this era of prevalent use of digital devices. It seems that this study has identified three influential websites i.e. al - Durar al � Saniyyah, Mawqi� al-Islam as well as Islamweb that can be used to ease the takhrij al-hadith or simply defined as hadith extraction in the collections. Terminologically, takhrij is the science of hadith extraction and authentication; including validating the chains of transmitters by hadith scholars as well as grading the authenticity level of hadith. In other words, it refers to the process of tracking the hadiths in various collections. Thus, the study is in fact intended to demonstrate the ease of takhrij in the era of ICT and also to explore the websites of hadith which can facilitate learning processes. The methodology used was the quantitative data collection of hadiths on websites. On a positive note, the study found few takhrij facilities that have been refined on these websites including (1) Masdar al � Hadith (original source text), (2) Ranking of hadith, (3) Sanad (chain of hadith narrators), (4) Matn (text of hadith), (5) The position of hadith in other sources by specifying Shawahid (witnesses) and Mutaba'at (follow-up), (6) Al-wa Jarh ta'dil (a systematic approach to critiquing a narrator's position as a narrator), (7) Categories of hadiths based on the Sanad and also (8) Hukm al-Hadith (derivation of hadith ruling). It is again to emphasize that all these takhrij facilities are provided in the three websites stated earlier. Above all, Islamweb is the best website that can be used by many researchers as it has been applying comprehensively the above-mentioned eight takhrij facilities.
