A Word about the Work of Abū Ḥanīfa “al- Fikh al- absat”

Abstract

This article provides information about the work "al-Fiqh al-absat" which is attributed to Abū Ḥanīfa, one of the eponymous representatives of traditional (Sunnism) Islam. On the one hand, Western Islamic scholars, modern oriental scholars, and on the other hand, among the majority of medieval Eastern Muslim scholars, have debated whether this work belongs to Abū Ḥanīfa or not. Several manuscripts of "Al-Fiqh al-absat" and narrators of the work have been studied. The essence of the themes presented in the work is illuminated. Argument methods are revealed by the author of the work.
