The Reliable Jurisprudence of Prayer [al-Mu‘tamad fī Fiqh aș-Șalāh] (Part # 1)

 

“This is a translation of my Arabic book al-Mu‘tamad fī Fiqh aș-Șalāh, which roughly means ‘The Reliable Jurisprudence of Prayer’. In it, you will find the reliable opinions on Fiqh aș-Șalāh in the light of the Noble Qur’ān and authentic Sunnah, as understood and adopted by my two trustworthy Shaykhs, Aḥmed b. Ḥamed al-Khalīlī and Sa‘īd b. Mabrūk al-Qannūbī (May Allāh reward them both)…”

“In general, this book, al-Mu‘tamad, includes a preliminary introduction to Sharī‘ah, Islāmic law, and more specifically to its practical aspects. The introduction is followed by the first part of the book, which is concerned with Țahārah (purification and its legal rulings). This part has five major chapters, starting with the Chapter of Purification and end with the Chapter of Tayammum (dry ablution) …”

“It is worth saying that this translation of al-Mu‘tamad is not a literal one, as the main focus of the work is to transfer the content to the reader in plain simple English. And due to the fact that the translator of this work is the writer of the original Arabic text, he has occasionally added some issues and benefits that are not mentioned in the original text. Similarly, he has at times omitted some of what has been mentioned in the original text when necessary…” By: al-Mu‘tașim Sa‘īd al-Ma‘walī
