Fiqh us-Sunnah by As-Sayyid Sabiq is one of the most widely read fiqh references in English, and this edition collects the first five of its volumes — purification, prayer, zakah, fasting, funerals, dhikr, supplications, Hajj and ’umrah — into a single 880-page hardback.
What Makes This Fiqh Different
Sabiq wrote Fiqh us-Sunnah to present rulings drawn directly from the Qur’an and authentic Sunnah, deliberately setting aside the practice of following a single madhhab uncritically. Where scholars differ, he lays out the viewpoints and their evidence rather than picking a side by default — in his own words, presenting what a Muslim needs to know, tied to the Book and the Sunnah, without the disputes that blind adherence to one school tends to produce.
What This Volume Covers
The five volumes bound in this edition cover Taharah (purification), Salah (prayer), Zakah, Sawm (fasting) and Hajj & ’Umrah, along with funerals, dhikr and supplications — in effect, the complete fiqh of worship a practicing Muslim needs on a day-to-day basis.
Who This Book Is For
Students of fiqh who want the evidence behind a ruling rather than a bare verdict, and any Muslim who wants one authoritative, evidence-based reference for the fiqh of worship instead of several conflicting ones.
