Contemporary Fatawa

Description

You must have seen many collections of Urdu and Arabic fatwas.
Today, see also a most comprehensive collection of English fatwas written by an authentic jurist of the world of Islam.

“Contemporary Fatwa”

That is, the publication of “Contemporary Fatawi” is another unique achievement of its kind, rather an honor. Alhamdulillah, this honor also came to the honorable Shaikhul Islam Mufti Muhammad Taqi Usmani Sahib Mudzalham.

It is unique because it is probably the first comprehensive collection of fatwas and modern jurisprudential issues written directly in the original English language by a Muslim and a great jurist of the Islamic world.

In it, Muslims around the world, especially in the western world, have been provided with the light of the Qur’an and the Sunnah of various problems faced by them in various fields of modern life. Live and complex issues are addressed in eloquent English language and common sense style, keeping in mind the legal requirements and nuances of the present day, while respecting the limits of the Shari’ah. It is as if the contemporary Muslim has been given a “workable” solution to every problem.

Before this, the English translation of the Noble Quran by your precious and “authentic” pen has gained popularity in the West and the East, many other English books and articles are based on it.

“Authentic” is said because behind every sentence written by you, there must be some relevant reference/reference of the Qur’an and Sunnah and the knowledge derived from them. This fundamental difference between a researcher and a non-researcher “scholar” must be kept in mind.

Your special excellence is that, thanks to the jurisprudence and magnanimity of the Mujaddin, in the light of the Qur’an and Hadith and the jurisprudential tradition derived from them, he presents such a clear solution to the most modern and complex problem, which would have taken all the precautions of the Shariat on the one hand. And on the other hand, it is also “doable” despite all the complexities of modern times. According to the scholars, this is also the glory of an innovator who presents the religion in terms of every age in such a style, language and expression as if it had just been revealed fresh for that age.

However, some of the features of this great collection of contemporary fatwas are:

1. Covering a period of about fifty years,
About seven hundred pages,
Consisting of 23 chapters,
Accurate answers to over seven hundred innovative questions

2. The special thing about this for scholars is that most of the problems with this interpretation and order have not been found in any Urdu or Arabic book of Hazrat before, that is, these answers do not contain the translation of any previous Urdu or Arabic writing.

3. Rather, many such detailed research problems have also come into it which probably could not be included in any previous writing or book with this detail.

4. A collection of Hazrat containing English fatwas published in Al-Balag International was published with this name some time ago, the current edition covers about two or three times more issues than that.

4. It was expected that this collection containing more than seven hundred questions and answers will be published in three volumes: beliefs, worship and issues. But later they were rolled up into one skin with great sophistication.

5. In printing, international standard requirements have been fully respected. The ornate title and the soft touch of soft paper is enough to compel a true book lover to get the book.

A lot can be written on the analysis of the issues that come up in the book.

Like other works of Hazrat, researchers and authors will find new angles of writing by opening the layers of this new work, God willing.
