Al-Bahwati's Approach in (Arrawdh Almurabba' fi Sharh zaad Almustaqna')

Abstract

The research aims at the description and analysis of Al-Bahwati's approach in composing (Arrawdh Almurabba'). Furthermore, it also aims at demonstrating the importance of (Arrawdh Almurabba') book and its relation to (Azzaad) "Supply" and (Almuqni') "Persuasive", and clarifying the approach and style of Al-Bahwati in his explanation (Arrawdh Almurabba') of (Zaad Al-Muqni'), with a clarification of how to study (Arrawdh Almurabba').

This research depends on the descriptive and analytical approaches of Al-Bahwati's approach and method in his explanation of the text (Zaad Almustaqni') through his book (Arrawdh Almurabba').

Some of the most important results are that Al-Bahwati used the technique of blending the text and the explanation, the same technique in which he explained the other text of Al-Hijjawi (Al'iqnaa') in his book (Kashf Alqinaa' 'an Matn Al'iqnaa'); his permanent comparison between the books of the doctrine, especially between the texts of (Azzaad) and its origin (Almuqni'), and between the three texts (Azzaad), the other text of Al-Hajjawi (Al'iqnaa') and the text (Almuntaha); and that there were many statements in contradiction to what is approved by the Hanbalis, from the intermediate and later scholars, in (Azzaad), and Al-Bahwati tracked them and expounded the correct view of the doctrine, relying on the two books (Al'insaaf) and (Tasheeh Alforou') of Al-Mardawi.

Among the most important recommendations:

• Taking care of clarifying scholars' approaches in their books that they had not stated in their introductions, specifically the books that are decided to be primary references in Sharia specializations, because of the difficulty of their understanding and comprehending for those who are not familiar with browsing and reading them.
• Several suggestions for research projects can be extracted from this study in the Hanbali doctrine.
