 ارشاد الانام بشرح وصايا ابي حنيفة الامام او عقود الماس في طريق الدعاة الى قلوب الناس

هو أول شرح لوصية الإمام أبي حنيفة لتلميذه يوسف بن خالد السمتي

للشريف الشيخ الدكتور جميل بن محمد علي حليم

Text and commentary on the letter of advice that Imam Abu Hanifah gave to his student Yusuf ibn Khalid as-Samti when he was parting from his company to return to his home in Basra.

Provides great insights into Imam Abu Hanifah's methodology as a teacher and gems of wisdom for students especially as they return from their studies to their communities: how to engage with their friends, students, followers, people of opposing views and different schools of thought, and general community members, while preserving one's own spiritual and physical well-being.

The letter is brief (3 pages), but full of beautiful advices, and is followed by extensive commentary by Dr. Jameel ibn Muhammad Ali Haleem.

Ninety 90 pages of introductory material include biographies of Imam Abu Hanifah, his student Yusuf ibn Khalid, and the author of the commentary, Dr. Jameel; as well as listings of different asaneed (chains of transmission) that the author has that link him to Imam Abu Hanifah.
