 الرسالة في أصول الفقه Kitab al-Risalah fi Ilm Usul al-Fiqh, Written in the 2nd Islamic century by al-Imam al-Shafii (d. 204AH) radi Allahu ta'ala anhu, the founder of one of the four Sunni schools of law, this important work gives the fundamental principles of Islamic jurisprudence and its influence continues to the present day. He established the principles by which the various legal doctrines could be synthesised into a coherent system.


In the Risala, which laid down the basis for such a synthesis, Imam al-Shafii established the overriding authority, next only to the Qur’an, of the Sunnah or example of the Prophet Muhammad, salla Allahu 'alayhi wa Sallam, as transmitted in the traditions.

 

About Imam Shafi'i :

He is Abu Abdullah Muhammad bin Idris  al-Shaf'i'i, radi Allahu ta'ala anhu, he was descended from the Hashimi family of the Quaraysh tribe to which the Noble Prophet Muhammad, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, belonged.

He was born in Gaza, Palestine, and was raised in Makkah, his parents' home town. He memorised the holy Qur'an while he was still a young child. When he reached fifteen, his knowledge was so thorough, Muslim Ibn Khalid Al-Zinji, the Mufti of Makkah, told him: 'O Abu Abdullah, give fatawa (religious rulings), for by Allah it is time for you to do so!

Imam al-Shafi'i, Arabic jurist (born 150 AH/767 CE ) was active in juridical matters and his teaching eventually led to the school of fiqh named after him. He was a man of vast knowledge and authority. Scholars gave him the honorific title 'Father of Usul Al-Fiqh" (The Patriarch of the Foundation of Islamic Jurisprudence). Imam Shafi'i died in the Year 204 A.H./ 820 C.E. and  was laid to rest in Egypt.
