Fiqh
Practical jurisprudence rooted in the classical Hanafi school.
Hanafi fiqh notes, beginning with the entry-level primers — Mukhtaṣar al-Qudūrī, Nūr al-Īḍāḥ — and progressing through the canonical chapters of jurisprudence: ritual purity, prayer, zakat, fasting, hajj, transactions, marriage, criminal law, and the rest.
Where the question of legal school arises, IlmHive defaults to the Hanafi position, with the school noted on each series. Comparative material from other schools is welcome but is always marked as such.
