Fiqh Al-Imam: Key Proofs in Hanafi Fiqh

Rating:
Summary: The resolution to doubts
Review: Shaykh Abdurrahman ibn Yusuf has done a wonderful job on this short book. It is especially good for any hanafis who have any doubts about the basis for hanafi fiqhi positions. It is also a counter-point to salafi agression against those on the path of sound traditional scholarship. It is clear, honest , and accurate to the best of my knowledge (although i have no right to speak about the knowledge of someone like shaykh Abdurrahman). Be aware however that it is not a fiqh book and is not meant as one. If that is what you are wanting, have patience. Amal Press is releasing a translation of Al-Marghinani's "Al- Hidayah" insha'allah this Ramadan (2005). There are some resources right now but this should be a huge step up.
