as-Salaamu`alaykum wa-Rahmatullaah.

Does anyone know any good fiqh books in english?

was-Salaamu`alaykum wa-Rahmatullaah.

[Abuz Zubair]

Some good books, Mulakhas Fiqhi by Sh Salih al-Fawzan 2 vols

Essentials of Fiqh by Salih al-Sadlan

Fiqh al-Sunna by Sayyid Sabiq

[Yasir]

In the fiqh of the ahnaaf, quite a few books have recently been translated...
Kitaabul Aathaar of Imam Abu Hanifah, al-Muwatta of Imam Muhammad and a (new) partial translation of al-Hidaayah.

[Ibn Adam]

For fiqh of financial transactions, there's a two volume piece by Dr Wahbah al-Zuhayli - Financial Transactions in Islamic Jurisprudence.

I got a copy for 35 pounds.

[Abu_Adam]

Fiqh of Jumuah, by J. Zarabozo
Sameh Strauch has translated some small Fiqh books
The three neglected prayers (can't remember the author)
Minhaj Al Muslim, Abu Bakr alJazaa'iri

[Abuz Zubair]

For fiqh of financial transactions, there's a two volume piece by Dr Wahbah al-Zuhayli - Financial Transactions in Islamic Jurisprudence.

I got a copy for 35 pounds.
Amazing book... amazing translation... a must read for all Islamic businessmen and economists!

[Yasir]

For fiqh of financial transactions, there's a two volume piece by Dr Wahbah al-Zuhayli - Financial Transactions in Islamic Jurisprudence.Is it extracted from Sh. az-Zuhayli's "al-Fiqh al-Islaami wa-Adillatuh"?

[Abuz Zubair]

Yes it is... I love Sh Zuhayli's works... an outstanding faqih and author.

[Abu Hafsa]

i guess you need to get a copy of that to jamal harwood and others like him.

[knowrass]

Yes it is... I love Sh Zuhayli's works... an outstanding faqih and author.

isn't he ash'ari in aqeedah?

[Abuz Zubair]

Not sure... he praises Sh Muhammad b. 'Abd al-Wahhab and considers him to be one of the mujaddids, as far as I remember. Allah knows best. But in terms of fiqh and writing style, he is excellent.

have u come accross his التفسير الوجيز ومعجم معاني القرآن العزيز? it was one of the first tafsir books i ever read and it really helped me understand the qur'aan better, wish i could get it online lol.

[Abuz Zubair]

I think I have come across his tafseer, and as far as I remember, it was quite voluminous. never read into it, though

[Shaghuri]

Shaikh Wahba is an Ash'ari as far as I know. Although I have not read his book on Usul al-Din, I believe that he has written an introduction to one work in defense of the Ash'ari doctrine. Along with that, in some places in his Fatawa online (at his site), he answers questions with ending statements such as: ''khilafan lil wahhabiyah'', such as his Fatwa on group Dhikr.

[knowrass]

i thought he would be ash'ari. he still has good works, i must admit...

could someone clarify the last point he makes in this fatwa:

ما هو رأيكم في حف وجه الرجل بالخيط ما عدا اللحيه والشارب؟

حف وجه الرجل بالخيط‏،‏ وكذا المرأة حرام‏،‏ لأنه النمص الذي لعن الله فيه صاحبه‏،‏ ويجوز بغير الخيط.

^^so is he saying that removing the facial hair with something other than the thread (for example a tweezer) would be permissible for both men and women? or is he referring only to men when they remove facial hair by other means, such as shaving blades?

[Abuz Zubair]

He may well be an Ash'ari, and he may well support some bida'i opinions, and he may well refer to the Hanbalis of Najd as 'Wahhabis', as he does in his article: Mujaddid al-Din fil-Qarn al-Thani 'Ashar - The Reviver of Religion in the 12th Century.

The entire book is full of praise and an explanation as to what the 'Wahhabi da'wah' is about.

[Shaghuri]

Well, its no secret that even if he is an Ash'ari and is opposed to the ''wahhabis'' that he is a scholar of high standing and maturity. This is why he has a good relationship with scholars such as Shaikh Salah (and is a member of his AMJA fiqh group of North America that Shaikh Salah initiated).

[WM]

You mean Sh. Salah as-Sawi?

[Madarijas-Salikeen]

Fiqh us sunnah is good

Al-hidaya with commentary (a very good commentary!)

Bahishti zewar is very simple thats what i like about it.

Reliance of the traveler is good but some things are not worth reading.

[Ibn Adam]

ASsalaamu'alaykum bro, where can i purchase this from?
It was difficult to get when I searched. I found a copy in Dar at-Tawqa in Melcombe Street, London. But that was years ago and it might be easier/more difficult to find now.
