About the author
Ismail b. Abi Bakr ibn al-Muqri: Ismail b. Abi Bakr Ibn al-Muqri al-Yamani al-Shafi'i (754-837 AH / 1353-1433 CE) rahimahullah was a distinguished Yemeni jurist of the Shafi'i madhhab. He is principally known for his celebrated fiqh treatise al-Irshad, also referred to as Irshad al-Ghawi, which became a widely circulated teaching text in Yemen and the broader Shafi'i tradition. His scholarly contributions placed him among the recognized authorities of Shafi'i jurisprudence during the ninth Islamic century, and his works continued to be transmitted and studied by later Yemeni scholars.
About the editor
Anas b. Muhammad Adnan al-Sharafawi: Anas b. Muhammad Adnan al-Sharafawi is a contemporary Damascene scholar and muhaqqiq (verifier and editor of classical texts) whose work centers on the disciplines of creed, logic, and Sufism. He teaches within the Ash'ari tradition in theology, giving lessons on 'aqida and logic, among them al-Bayjuri's celebrated gloss on the Jawharat al-Tawhid, and he is active in transmitting these foundational sciences to students. He has prepared more than fifty critical editions, the bulk of them for Dar al-Taqwa in Damascus and several flagship titles for Dar al-Minhaj, the Jeddah and Beirut house known for high-quality editions of Shafi'i and Ash'ari texts. For Dar al-Minhaj he edited al-Qushayri's al-Risala al-Qushayriyya, the most widely circulated classical manual of Sufism, and Imam al-Ghazali's al-Iqtisad fi al-I'tiqad, a key statement of Ash'ari theology. His other verified editions include al-Sanusi's Umm al-Barahin (al-'Aqida al-Sughra), al-Bayhaqi's al-I'tiqad wa al-Hidaya ila Sabil al-Rashad, and Ibn 'Abbad's commentary on the Hikam of Ibn 'Ata' Allah. His editions are appreciated for careful collation of manuscripts and a clear, accessible layout that serves both seminary students and general readers approaching the classical literature of theology and the spiritual path.
