Al-Waraqāt by Imam al-Juwaynī is one of the first texts taught to beginners in the science of Islamic Jurisprudence. It deals with the basic definitions and rules of the science.
In this upcoming course by Fluent Arabic, we will take you through this primer in an easy to understand manner suitable for beginners helping you to build a solid foundation in Usūl al-Fiqh.
Usūl al-Fiqh or the Principles of Islamic Jurisprudence is the science dealing with the rules and etiquettes of interpreting legal texts and arriving at legal rulings.
This science is defined as “knowledge of the general evidences of fiqh, how to use them, and the conditions for the person using them.” — See Sheikh Musa Furber, Sharḥ al-Waraqāt
As you can assume, this science is of paramount importance to aspiring students of fiqh, as understanding and adhering to these rules is critical, so as to not deviate from the established method of our scholars and fuqahā when deriving rulings.
