"This translation . . . is both precise and straightforward . . . [the translator] has conveyed the meaning of the original with great clarity." —Dr. Mohammad Akram Nadwi, research fellow, Oxford Centre for Islamic Studies "[This translation] is an important contribution and vastly improves on previous attempts to render the Hidayah in English." —R. Kevin Jaques, assistant professor, Department of Religious Studies, Indiana University

This contemporary translation makes the Hidayah—the 800-year-old multivolume work used by Muslim jurists to issue Islamic-law rulings—accessible to the English-speaking world. The Hidayah is arguably the most widely read book of Islamic jurisprudence in the Muslim world and is used as a primary text in Islamic schools and seminaries. An introduction by the translator contextualizes Islamic law and explores the nuances of its legal reasoning while a glossary of key and technical terms, a commentary, and a comprehensive index ensure that all readers can navigate this translation's technical legal vocabulary.

Burhan al-Din 'Ali b. Abi Bakr b. 'Abd al Jalal al-Farghani, al-Marghinani was the Muslim world's leading 13th-century jurist. Imran Ahsan Khan Nyazee is a professor and the chief editor of Shariah and Islamic law at the International Islamic University–Islamabad. He is the translator of The Book of Revenue and The Distinguished Jurist's Primer and the author of General Principles of Criminal Law, Islamic Jurisprudence, Islamic Law of Business Organization, and Outlines of Islamic Jurisprudence.
