List of Works

  • Sharh Manhaj al-Salikin wa Tawdih al-Fiqh fi al-Din is a contemporary legal commentary that explains the concise Hanbali jurisprudence manual by Abd al-Rahman ibn Nasir al-Sa'di (d. 1376 AH). Originating from instructional lectures delivered in Rafha, Saudi Arabia, the work follows the primer's arrangement to elucidate legal rulings across major areas of fiqh, including acts of worship and commercial transactions. Its explanatory approach defines key legal terms, cites textual evidence from the Quran and Sunnah, and references classical authorities.

  • Sharh Bulugh al-Maram is a contemporary legal hadith commentary that serves as an explanatory work on Ibn Hajar al-Asqalani's (d. 852 AH) classic compendium, Bulugh al-Maram min Adillat al-Ahkam. Arranged by standard jurisprudence chapters beginning with the Book of Purification, the work uses a question-and-answer format to analyze terminology, the circumstances of narrations, hadith authenticity, and the derivation of legal rulings alongside classical consensus, scholarly disputes, and modern verdicts.

  • Tafsir al-Quran al-Karim: min al-Fatiha ila al-Nisa is a contemporary Quranic commentary covering the first four chapters of the Quran: Surah al-Fatiha, Surah al-Baqarah, Surah Al Imran, and Surah al-Nisa. Following a sequential verse-by-verse analysis, the work incorporates interpretive benefits, virtues, miscellaneous notes, and scholarly citations, concluding sections with deduced doctrinal, legal, and ethical points based on hadiths, linguistic definitions, and transmissions from major scholars.

  • Durus Fiqhiyya is a contemporary compendium of Islamic legal lessons designed as an educational aid to help students understand jurisprudence alongside its textual proofs. Drawing primarily from foundational Hanbali manuals such as Zad al-Mustaqni' and 'Umdat al-Fiqh, the work covers traditional legal topics including purification, prayer, zakat, commercial transactions, and family law. It defines terms, reviews differing juristic opinions, evaluates scriptural evidence, and identifies the preponderant view.
