Notes
Minhāj al-vuṣūl ilá ʿilm al-ʾuṣūl is the title of one of the works written by Qāz̤ī Bayz̤āvī on the principles of Islamic jurisprudence and presented in the form of an introduction and seven books. Many commentaries have been written on this work, including 'Sirāj-i Vahhāj' by Aḥmad bin Ḥasan Jārbardī (746 AH) and 'Nahāyat al-Sūl fī Sharḥ Minhāj al-vuṣūl' by Asnavī. There is allegedly another commentary on this work called 'al-Ḥanafīyah lil-minhāj ʿalá ḥal al-matn', whose author was not known based on the avaialble sources. The present copy is a summary of the aforementioned commentary, whose author has remained unknown too.
Sample Text
In the name of Allah, praise be to Him, and afterwards... I have no permission in His words except a good reference to the abstract of the official commentary of the Hanafi curriculum on the solution of the text and the authority of the doctrine.
