Dhakhirat al-'Uqba fi Sharh Sadr al-Shari'a al-'Uzma (5 Volumes) ذخيرة العقبى في شرح صدر الشريعة العظمى
Dhakhirat al-Uqba fi Sharh Sadr al-Shari'ah al-'Uzma is a distinguished work in Hanafi legal theory (Usul al-Fiqh), devoted to explaining the profound and intricate discussions of Imam Sadr al-Shari'ah al-Thani (d. 747 AH). His seminal works, Tanqih al-Usul and its self-commentary Al-Tawdih, have long been regarded among the most sophisticated texts in the Hanafi usul tradition, inspiring generations of scholars to compose detailed commentaries and super-commentaries.
Dhakhirat al-Uqba stands among these important scholarly works, elucidating the text's legal, theological, and philosophical arguments with precision and depth. It is an invaluable resource for advanced students and specialists seeking a deeper understanding of the Hanafi methodology of legal reasoning.
This four-volume edition from Dar al-Rayaheen has been critically established through a meticulous comparison of multiple manuscripts: two for the original text (matn), five for the commentary (sharh), and five for the super-commentary (hashiyah), resulting in one of the most reliable published editions to date.
A particularly significant feature of this edition is the first-ever publication of the compiler's minhuwwat—his personal annotations and clarifications preserved in manuscript form. These invaluable notes offer direct insight into the author's own explanations and intentions, substantially enhancing the work's scholarly value.
