Publisher's Synopsis
The Nominated is the translation of alMukhtaar lil Fatwaa (The Nominated for Issuing Edicts) which is one of the four, main Hanfiyy Fiqh books. The later Hanfiyy scholars have highly approved following alMukhtaar for understanding Islamic Fiqh issues according to the Hanfiyy School's rules besides: * AlWiqaayah by Taaj ashSharee`ah Mahmood bin Sadr ashSharee`ah (died 673 AH), * Majma`ul Bahrayn by Mudhaffarud Deen Ahmad bin `Aliyy Ibn asSaa`aatiyy (d. 694 AH) and * AlKanz by Namjud Deen `Umar bin Muhammad anNasafiyy (d. 710 AH). The Nominated - Purification covers alMukhtaar's Purification Book which strictly follows Imam Abu Hanifah's (80-150 AH) judgment as opposed to the judgment of his two companions Imam Abu Yusuf alQaadiy (113-183 AH) and Imam Muhammad binul Hasan ashShaybaaniyy (132-189 AH) as well as Imam Zufar binul Hudhayl (110-158 AH). Imam alMawsiliyy tracks the judgments of those scholars, including Imam ashShafi`iyy (150-204 AH), when their judgments disagree with that of Imam Abu Hanifah.
