## Description

desertcart.com: Al-Maqasid: Nawawi's Manual of Islam (English and Arabic Edition): 9781590080115: Nawawi, Noah Ha Mim Keller: Books

Review: Qibla's chosen text for the Shafi'i course - This book is considered a matan...a summarized work of basic rulings of worship in the Shafi'i madhhab. As such, it leaves out a lot of detail and explanation because it is meant to be studied as a textbook with an Islamic scholar filling in the details in depth. Sheikh Nuh Ha Mim Keller (May God preserve Him) added many notes from the Reliance of the Traveler to supplement much of the information when he translated this book, but again...this book is NOT intended for casual reading for the unlearned, nor self-study by Muslims. I studied from this book at the school "Qibla: for the Islamic Sciences" - a TWO semester course! Sheikh Nuh Ha Mim Keller also teaches at this school himself. It is an excellent semi-intermediate text, and covers all of the fard-al-ayn (basic personally obligatory knowledge to be a practicing Muslim) in a concise, portable format. This book is a classic; and Imam Nawawi is one of the authoritative scholars in the Shafi'i school of Islamic jurisprudence.
Review: Excellent primer on Islamic law - Al Maqasid of Imam Nawawi is an excellent primer for people learning the basics of Islamic practice and law according to the madhhab of Imam Shafi'i. The text covers basic beliefs, the five pillars, spirituality, and contains various essays in the appendix section that deal with current trends that need explanation from the traditional Islamic perspective. This text is a required a in Shafi'i fiqh course offered at sunnipath.com.
