Book excerpt: The intention in compiling this brief commentary on the section of commercial law (Kitab Al Buyu) from the Mukhtasar of Al Quduri is to assist the layman and the early learner in understanding the various fiqhi terminologies and concepts in the manner laid down by the classical authors on Hanafi jurisprudence. A firm grasp of these fundamental concepts in the initial years of study will lay a solid foundation for a student to later build upon the more detailed books and also when applying his to contemporary issues of commercial law. The compiling author has attempted to convey the explanation of the masail and indicate the background reasoning in a simple manner without excessive reference to technical jurisprudential terminology, generally used by Arabic commentators, leaving this for the student to discover directly from these commentaries themselves or in later studies. About Imam Quduri He was the eminent jurist of Baghdad, the Imam Abul Husayn Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Ahmad ibn Jafar ibn Hamdan, famously known as Al Quduri, born in 362 AH (973 CE). He studied fiqh under Abu Abdullah Muhammad ibn Yahya Al jurjani who was the student of Abu Bakr Ar Razi. Among his notable students was Abu Al Nasr Ahmad ibn Muhammad Al Aqta. He narrated hadith from Muhammad ibn Ali Ibn suwayd Al Muaddib and Ubaydullah ibn Muhammad Al hawshabi. The chief justice Abu Abdullah An Damaghani narrated hadith from him and so did Khateeb al Baghdadi. Imam Al Quduri distinguished himself in fiqh due to his intelligence. He went on to become the leader of the Hanafi scholars in Iraq and rose among them in status and fame. He was from the Ashab At Tarjeeh i.e jurists who analyzed the strength of differing verdicts in the schools ann were qualified to give preference to one over the other.
