Detailed Description
Reviver of the 2nd Hijrī century, Imam Shāfiʿī is the titular foufnder of one of the schools of Sunni jurisprudence. But even before he was a scholar of Islam, Muḥammad ibn Idrīs was a noble of Quraysh & a quotable authority (ḥujjah) on the Arabic language.
For lovers of poetry, we have arranged a collection of the Imam’s verse, with side-by-side English, as an introduction to the Imam in his role as poet & Arab noble.
