منتهى الإرادات في جمع المقنع مع التنقيح وزيادات-للعلامة ابن النجار الفتوحي

Author: 

The Ultimate in Aspirations: A Compilation of al-Muqniʿ with al-Tanqīḥ and Additions”

Compiler (Jamʿ): al-ʿAllāma Ibn al-Najjār al-Futūḥī al-Ḥanbalī — Taqī al-Dīn Abū al-Baqāʾ Muḥammad ibn Aḥmad ibn ʿAbd al-ʿAzīz al-Futūḥī al-Miṣrī al-Ḥanbalī (b. 898H, d. 972H)

This is one of the most authoritative matns in later Ḥanbalī fiqh — the text upon which Sharḥ Muntahā al-Irādāt (by al-Bahūtī) and Kashshāf al-Qināʿ were later built. Ibn al-Najjār drew together Ibn Qudāmah’s al-Muqniʿ with al-Mardāwī’s authoritative al-Tanqīḥ (which itself records the strongest position, al-rājiḥ, within the madhhab), then added further refinements (ziyādāt). The result is a highly compressed, precisely-worded matn covering the full scope of fiqh from ṭahārah through farāʾiḍ, representing the “final word” of the later Ḥanbalī taḥrīr (verification) process — hence the title “the ultimate in aspirations.”

Volumes: 2 vols (Vol. 1 & Vol. 2 shown)
