Al-Mulakhkhaṣ al-Fiqhī is one of the most respected contemporary works on Islamic jurisprudence (Fiqh). Written by Shaykh Ṣāliḥ ibn Fawzān al-Fawzān, a member of the Permanent Committee for Fatwa and the Council of Senior Scholars of Saudi Arabia, this book presents the fundamental rulings of Islamic law in a clear, structured, and accessible style.
