An Epitome of Hanbali Substantive Law by Abdul al-Hadi al-Hanbali

An Epitome of Hanbali Substantive Law is a translated rendition of Yūsuf b. ʿAbd al-Hādī's (d. 909/1503) Arabic legal manual Kitāb furūʿ al-fiqh, providing a simple, modern overview of the Hanbali school of Islamic law. The translation covers both worship (ʿibādāt) and social dealings (muʿāmalāt), and includes an appendix with portions of Ibn Qudāma's al-Muqniʿ and a treatise on Islamic manners by Ibn ʿAqīl. This work is considered the shortest Hanbali legal manual, making it a valuable resource for scholars, students, and practitioners of Islamic law.
