المنهاج الوجيز في القواعد والضوابط والاصول الفقهية

ABOUT THE BOOK

This a concise and well-structured work on Islamic legal maxims, rules, and foundational principles of jurisprudence. Authored by Ṣalāḥ Muḥammad Abū al-Ḥāj, the book offers readers a clear and systematic introduction to the core legal principles (القواعد الفقهية) and juristic controls (الضوابط) that underpin Islamic law (fiqh), as well as the essential methodological foundations used by scholars to derive rulings. 

Spanning its topics with clarity and precision, the text explores how general legal maxims guide detailed judicial decisions, how rules are applied across diverse cases, and how underlying jurisprudential principles shape consistent legal reasoning in the Shariah. Its straightforward presentation makes it accessible to students of Islamic law, educators, and anyone eager to deepen their understanding of the structure and logic of Islamic legal thought. 

This edition, published by Dar al-Farouq, brings classical legal theory into a concise format that balances scholarly depth with approachable explanations.
