المختار للفتوى

Al-Mukhtār lil-Fatwā

ʿAbd Allāh al-Mawṣilī · d. 683 AH Advanced Planned

The positions a Ḥanafī muftī actually gives, as distinct from the school’s theoretical strongest view. Qalam sets it for dealings — the half of the law that touches money, contracts and property.

Read the Arabic

The text

Public domain — read it at a library

Al-Maktaba al-Shāmila — inside al-Ikhtiyār, the author’s own commentary; the matn runs above the rule on every page

Al-Mawṣilī died in 683 AH and wrote both the matn and the commentary on it.

In English — ours

Not yet. We translate rather than reprint, so the English for this book begins the day its first lesson is taught.

We link rather than mirror. The classical texts are out of copyright, but the modern printed editions of them are not, so we point you at a library that already carries one instead of putting somebody else’s edition on our server. What we do host is our own work.

Lessons

Not written yet. This book is on the map so you can see where it sits in the course, not because it is ready to study here.
