The Greater Fiqh

الفقه الأكبر

A short creed that Hanafi teachers ascribe to Abu Hanifah. Scholars discuss which lines are exactly his. What the later Hanafi school taught from it is simple: Allah is One and not like the creation. The Quran is the speech of Allah. People in Paradise will see Him. Faith is to confess and to believe.

  1. The Greater Fiqh

    الفقه الأكبر

    Ascribed to Abu Hanifah (died 150 AH)

    A short early creed. Read it with a teacher who knows how it was passed down.

This is a Hanafi door. It is not a stick to hit another school with.
