      As introductory to the study of FIQH, we shall now survey the text
       resources available, in the context of Nusantara (S.E. Asia), -
       understanding the common traditional curriculum and how one should
       proceed seeking teachers learned in FIQH to be taught and guided.


      One must not attempt self-study from text (or on internet) alone
       devoid of constant guidance and nurturing from Islamic religious
       teacher. Only a FAQIH can nurture another to be FAQIH – who not only
       has the knowledge but importantly, the ADAB and AKHLAQ
       (disposition) required of a learned Islamic scholar.

As we have explained, the objective of a Muslim learning
         FIQH is towards him / her understanding the Islamic
         rulings - incumbent upon him to manifest his “ISLAM” –
         “submission or obedience towards the Will of Allah.”

         The extent of these guidelines or corpus of rulings –
         AHKAM – is very extensive indeed.

         Yet, we must not forget our place – which is as students –
         firstly seeking knowledge from teachers and scholars of
         FIQH chosen for us in the community we are from.

Also, due to the nature of its development as expanded by
         the respective Islamic scholars usually faithful to one
         MADZHAB (school of jurisprudence they are from in our
         context - Nusantara), the information and knowledge
         regarding resources relevant to one’s MADZHAB that are
         available to refer to, is important.

         Without which, one may be clueless as where to begin and
         how. It is the unspoken rule that by default, one belongs
         to the MADHZAB of the one’s religious guide or teacher .

Even if one may have access to books and other materials,
         it would still be a very daunting task to wade through
         voluminous materials without guidance of teachers.

         Yes, we do not deny the presence of teachers of other
         MADZAAHIB here, but the ADAB demands that we accord
         priority with appreciation, to that school of jurisprudence
         which we (our parents and community) have been
         fortunate to belong to have put us through.
         WalHamdulillaah!.

The immediate concern in seeking this knowledge (FIQH)
          is the fulfilment of a Muslim’s duty and obligations – those
          that has to be complied – obligatory - either by
          commission or omission.

          It is sufficient to follow the stipulated decision in
          accordance with one’s MADZHAB – in our case here we
          begin with the SHAFI-’IEYYAH school. It is not as yet
          imperative that one knows the full legal basis upon which
          the author / scholar has based his opinion upon.

Even with accessibility to information in these manuals
        and books, it cannot replace seeking advice directly from
        an ‘ALEEM (learned scholar) or your religious teacher.

        In fact by using these text and referencing it with a
        teacher (as in a life-long study), following the order of its
        curriculum, one’s competency and scholarship in FIQH
        would gradually be enhanced.

           The list of books chosen here is due to its availability in English
           translation, but there are also those not as yet translated.

      There are many kinds of curruculum for Islamic education, which
        traditionally follows that of developing learned religious scholars.
       While this may be suitable in developing scholars, the ordinary lay
        Muslim may require a different – yet relevant curriculum for their
        development which must remain loyal to the Islamic principles, ethos
        and worldview.
       Especially today, because most ordinary Muslims may not have any
        penchant to be teachers or scholars of Islam, therefore usually they
        attend religious classes irregularly – once a week perhaps.
       Yet certain knowledge are regarded as FARDHU ‘AIN even for them.

      In this module, the emphasis is towards inculcation of ADAB –
        specifically in regards to the Islamically guided relationship a Muslim
        has to encounter in life which must be nurtured.
       Thus it it not strictly FIQH (as in jurisprudence) but include appropriate
        AQEEDAH (Faith/Belief) as well as the noble or praiseworthy AKHLAQ
        (Disposition) a Muslim must adopt in regards to each of these
        relationship.
       Thus it provide the ultimate in a Muslim’s compulsory education, i.e.
        FARDHU ‘AIN (personal religious obligation) – that of being and
        becoming rather than merely knowing of subjects theoretically.

      And in this module-curriculum, each aspect is addressed in accordance
        with the required sequence of a Muslim’s growth and development –
        organically.
       Thus, it deals with whatever is required (IIMAN-’AMAL-IHSAN) at each
        stages unlike having to undergo the separate discourses in their study of
         ‘ILM TAUHEED, ‘ILM FIQH and ‘ILM AKHLAQ.
       Al-Hamdulillaah! The feedback from the trial run was positively
        encouraging.
       So allow me to briefly present this alternative module – as my response
        to what is now in vogue – (the so called A.L.I.V.E. program) which are
        but imitation (albeit with modification) from those adopted in the
        churches.

“Has there not been over Man a long period of Time, when he
             was nothing--(not even) mentioned?― Verily We created Man
             from a drop of mingled sperm, in order to try him: so We gave
             him (the gifts), of Hearing and Sight. We showed him the Way:
             whether he be grateful or ungrateful (rests on his will).”

           whom are our PARENTS.

Traditionally in this kind of session using Ahadith manual, the
           teacher must be a FAQIH, because religious ruling is not merely
           based upon Ahadith alone.

           Muhadith preserves the Ahadith of Prophet s.a.a.w, whereas
           a Faqih is the one who extracts the rules of Deen of Allah SWT
           from Qur’an, Ahadith and other principles (of Fiqh).

           Thus, in practice, the FAQIH ought to be followed. Students must
           refrain from passing ruling from mere reading of these Hadith,
           without referring also to one who is a FAQIH.

This is because a FAQIH (jurist) possess a basic understanding of
           the various sciences of Hadith as well gathers abstracts of
           common meanings from them; the ability to explain the apparent
           contradictions that are found in the Ahadith and untie their knots;
           also deep understanding of the Qur’an and its Tafsir and related
           sciences, well versed in the various sciences of the Arabic
           language as well as possesses the knowledge of the statements of
           the Sahabah r.a., with comprehensive understanding of the
           principles of analogy (Qiyas).

It is for this reason that Sufyan ibn ‘Uyaynah rhm.a. an
                   illustrious scholar of Hadith, used to say:




                      “(Muslim’s) submitting to the Fuqaha (expert opinions),

                       is safety in (his following) the Deen (religion of Islam)”.

He, Sufyan ibn ‘Uyaynah rhm.a. also used to say:




                         “The Hadith can lead (ignorant people) astray except

                                  (when explained by) the FUQAHA (jurists)”.

A man came to the famous (Muhaddith), Zuhair ibn Mu’awiyah
             (to learn). He asked him: “Where do you come from?” (i.e. where
             were you learning previously). The man replied: “from Abu
             Hanifah (Faqih)”.

             Imam Zuhair remarked:“Your going to Abu Hanifah for one day is
             more beneficial for you than staying with me for one month”.

Imam A’mash rhm. when meeting with Imam Abu Hanifah r.a.
               was astonished at his response and comment to one Hadith
               which he just conveyed to Imam Abu Hanifah till he exclaimed:

                    “Enough! You wish to narrate to me in one moment what I
                    narrated to you in 100 days. I was not aware that you have
                                    practical application to all these Ahadith.

                                                    (Then he said:)

Muhammad ibn ‘Abdullah ibn Al-Hakam was asked:

           “Who is a Faqih? “


           He replied: “That person who extracts one principle from
           the Qur’an or As-Sunnah in which he was not preceded by anyone,
           then divides that principle into one hundred branches”.


             The person asked: Who is it that has such ability?

             In reply he said: “Muhammad ibn Idris Ash-Shafi-’ie (r.a.)”.

Those reading-circle using Ahadith manual in our community
           following the SHAFI’IE school, actually has the purpose to revise
           (and even memorising) the Hadith, as well as gaining blessings
           especially when the manual is read by those possessing ISNAD link.

           It is thus primarily meant for one to improve one’s knowledge of
           Hadith, not necessarily FIQH, because Imam Ash-Shafi-’ie
           prioritized the knowledge of Hadith over the dominance of Ra-’iy
           (juristic reasoning) in equipping our scholars of FIQH. But as to the
           learning FIQH itself, one must require a qualified teacher of FIQH.

This clarification is to dispel the notion – especially to those who are
          new, merely learning and quoting a Hadith itself (although one of
          prerequisite), this is not sufficient for pronouncing a FIQH ruling.

          Scholars specializing only in Hadith (MUHADDITH) must comply with
          the ADAB of not usurping the place of those who are the FAQIH.

          It is most unfortunate that some Hadith manuals compiled by people
          like Imam An-Nawawi, is being ‘used’ to incite people to become
          ‘non-Madzhabi ’ while Imam An-Nawawi himself followed a
          Madzhab and even has a manual on FIQH of the SHAFI’IE MADZHAB.

    As introductory to the study of FIQH, we shall now survey the text resources available, in the context of Nusantara (S.E. Asia), - understanding the common traditional curriculum and how one should proceed seeking teachers learned in FIQH to be taught and guided.  One must not attempt self-study from text (or on internet) alone devoid of constant guidance and nurturing from Islamic religious teacher. Only a FAQIH can nurture another to be FAQIH – who not only has the knowledge but importantly, the ADAB and AKHLAQ (disposition) required of a learned Islamic scholar.

    As we haveexplained, the objective of a Muslim learning FIQH is towards him / her understanding the Islamic rulings - incumbent upon him to manifest his “ISLAM” – “submission or obedience towards the Will of Allah.” The extent of these guidelines or corpus of rulings – AHKAM – is very extensive indeed. Yet, we must not forget our place – which is as students – firstly seeking knowledge from teachers and scholars of FIQH chosen for us in the community we are from.

    Also, due tothe nature of its development as expanded by the respective Islamic scholars usually faithful to one MADZHAB (school of jurisprudence they are from in our context - Nusantara), the information and knowledge regarding resources relevant to one’s MADZHAB that are available to refer to, is important. Without which, one may be clueless as where to begin and how. It is the unspoken rule that by default, one belongs to the MADHZAB of the one’s religious guide or teacher .

    Even if onemay have access to books and other materials, it would still be a very daunting task to wade through voluminous materials without guidance of teachers. Yes, we do not deny the presence of teachers of other MADZAAHIB here, but the ADAB demands that we accord priority with appreciation, to that school of jurisprudence which we (our parents and community) have been fortunate to belong to have put us through.

    The immediate concernin seeking this knowledge (FIQH) is the fulfilment of a Muslim’s duty and obligations – those that has to be complied – obligatory - either by commission or omission. It is sufficient to follow the stipulated decision in accordance with one’s MADZHAB – in our case here we begin with the SHAFI-’IEYYAH school. It is not as yet imperative that one knows the full legal basis upon which the author / scholar has based his opinion upon. All Rights Reserved © Zhulkeflee Hj Ismail (2013) )

    Even with accessibilityto information in these manuals and books, it cannot replace seeking advice directly from an ‘ALEEM (learned scholar) or your religious teacher. In fact by using these text and referencing it with a teacher (as in a life-long study), following the order of its curriculum, one’s competency and scholarship in FIQH would gradually be enhanced. The list of books chosen here is due to its availability in English translation, but there are also those not as yet translated.

    There are many kinds of curruculum for Islamic education, which traditionally follows that of developing learned religious scholars.  While this may be suitable in developing scholars, the ordinary lay Muslim may require a different – yet relevant curriculum for their development which must remain loyal to the Islamic principles, ethos and worldview.  Especially today, because most ordinary Muslims may not have any penchant to be teachers or scholars of Islam, therefore usually they attend religious classes irregularly – once a week perhaps.  Yet certain knowledge are regarded as FARDHU ‘AIN even for them. All Rights Reserved © Zhulkeflee Hj Ismail (2013) )
  • 33.
    In this module, the emphasis is towards inculcation of ADAB – specifically in regards to the Islamically guided relationship a Muslim has to encounter in life which must be nurtured.  Thus it it not strictly FIQH (as in jurisprudence) but include appropriate AQEEDAH (Faith/Belief) as well as the noble or praiseworthy AKHLAQ (Disposition) a Muslim must adopt in regards to each of these relationship.  Thus it provide the ultimate in a Muslim’s compulsory education, i.e. FARDHU ‘AIN (personal religious obligation) – that of being and becoming rather than merely knowing of subjects theoretically. All Rights Reserved © Zhulkeflee Hj Ismail (2013) )
  • 34.
    And in this module-curriculum, each aspect is addressed in accordance with the required sequence of a Muslim’s growth and development – organically.  Thus, it deals with whatever is required (IIMAN-’AMAL-IHSAN) at each stages unlike having to undergo the separate discourses in their study of ‘ILM TAUHEED, ‘ILM FIQH and ‘ILM AKHLAQ.  Al-Hamdulillaah! The feedback from the trial run was positively encouraging.  So allow me to briefly present this alternative module – as my response to what is now in vogue – (the so called A.L.I.V.E. program) which are but imitation (albeit with modification) from those adopted in the churches.

    Traditionally in thiskind of session using Ahadith manual, the teacher must be a FAQIH, because religious ruling is not merely based upon Ahadith alone. Muhadith preserves the Ahadith of Prophet s.a.a.w, whereas a Faqih is the one who extracts the rules of Deen of Allah SWT from Qur’an, Ahadith and other principles (of Fiqh). Thus, in practice, the FAQIH ought to be followed. Students must refrain from passing ruling from mere reading of these Hadith, without referring also to one who is a FAQIH.

    This is becausea FAQIH (jurist) possess a basic understanding of the various sciences of Hadith as well gathers abstracts of common meanings from them; the ability to explain the apparent contradictions that are found in the Ahadith and untie their knots; also deep understanding of the Qur’an and its Tafsir and related sciences, well versed in the various sciences of the Arabic language as well as possesses the knowledge of the statements of the Sahabah r.a., with comprehensive understanding of the principles of analogy (Qiyas).

    Muhammad ibn ‘Abdullahibn Al-Hakam was asked: “Who is a Faqih? “ He replied: “That person who extracts one principle from the Qur’an or As-Sunnah in which he was not preceded by anyone, then divides that principle into one hundred branches”. The person asked: Who is it that has such ability? In reply he said: “Muhammad ibn Idris Ash-Shafi-’ie (r.a.)”. All Rights Reserved © Zhulkeflee Hj Ismail (2013) )

    Those reading-circle usingAhadith manual in our community following the SHAFI’IE school, actually has the purpose to revise (and even memorising) the Hadith, as well as gaining blessings especially when the manual is read by those possessing ISNAD link. It is thus primarily meant for one to improve one’s knowledge of Hadith, not necessarily FIQH, because Imam Ash-Shafi-’ie prioritized the knowledge of Hadith over the dominance of Ra-’iy (juristic reasoning) in equipping our scholars of FIQH. But as to the learning FIQH itself, one must require a qualified teacher of FIQH. All Rights Reserved © Zhulkeflee Hj Ismail (2013) )
  • 97.
    This clarification isto dispel the notion – especially to those who are new, merely learning and quoting a Hadith itself (although one of prerequisite), this is not sufficient for pronouncing a FIQH ruling. Scholars specializing only in Hadith (MUHADDITH) must comply with the ADAB of not usurping the place of those who are the FAQIH. It is most unfortunate that some Hadith manuals compiled by people like Imam An-Nawawi, is being ‘used’ to incite people to become ‘non-Madzhabi ’ while Imam An-Nawawi himself followed a Madzhab and even has a manual on FIQH of the SHAFI’IE MADZHAB.
