About The Author

Muhammad Ibn Ali ibn Muhammad ibn Abdullaah As-Shawkani, the surname ‘ash-Shawkani’ is derived from Hijrah ash-Shawkan, which is a town outside San’a.

Born into a Zaydi Shi’a Muslim family, ash-Shawkani later on called for a return to the textual sources of the Quran and hadith.

He viewed himself as a mujtahid, or authority to whom others in the Muslim community had to defer in details of religious law.

Of his work issuing fatwas, ash-Shawkani stated ‘I acquired knowledge without a price and I wanted to give it thus.

Part of the fatwa-issuing work of many noted scholars typically is devoted to the giving of ordinary opinions to private questioners.

Ash-Shawkani refers both to his major fatwas, which were collected and preserved as a book, and to his ‘shorter’ fatwas, which he said ‘could never be counted’ and which were not recorded.

He is credited with developing a series of syllabi for attaining various ranks of scholarship and used a strict system of legal analysis based on Sunni thought.

He insisted that a jurists who wanted to be a mujtahid fī’l-madhhab (a scholar who is qualified to exercise ijtihad within a school of Islamic law), was required to do ijtihad, which stemmed from his opposition to taqlid for a mujtahid.

Despite his Shi’ite background, he is regarded by many as a revivalist and has influenced contemporary Islamic movements in the Muslim world such as the Ahl-i Hadith and Salafi Movement .

His legal decisions and discussions are frequently used in contemporary debate among Muslim scholars. Allama Shawkani died in the year 1255 A.H.
