Description
About The Book
Nayl al-Raja is Shaykh Ahmad b. Umar al-Shatiri's commentary on Safinat al-Naja — the celebrated short Hadrami Shafii beginner's matn composed by Shaykh Salim b. Sumayr al-Hadrami in the nineteenth century, covering the foundational rulings of tahara, salat, fasting, and the inner conditions of religious life in a brief prose tract intended for memorisation. al-Shatiri's commentary opens each section of the matn for the young Hadrami student, explaining the meaning, supplying the underlying juristic principles, and connecting the text to the broader Hadrami Shafii tradition.

About the author
Ahmad b. Umar al-Shatiri: Shaykh Ahmad b. Umar al-Shatiri rahimahullah (1312-1360 AH / 1894-1941 CE) was a Hadhrami Shafii scholar associated with the traditional Islamic learning center of Tarim in Hadramawt, Yemen. He is known for al-Yaqut al-Nafis fi Madhhab Ibn Idris, a Shafii fiqh primer he composed specifically for the Ba'Alawi pedagogical tradition of Tarim. The work draws directly on the foundational Hadhrami Shafii texts - al-Muqaddima al-Hadramiyya of Ba Fadl, Bushra al-Karim of Ba'shan, and al-Manhaj al-Qawim of Ibn Hajar al-Haytami - and presents the authoritative positions of the Shafii school in clear contemporary Arabic accessible to students. The text became a core matn of the Tarim curriculum. Al-Shatiri also authored Nayl al-Raja bi-Sharh Safinat al-Naja, a commentary on the widely-studied primer Safinat al-Naja.
