المدخل الفقهي العام (Al-Madkhal al-Fiqhi al-'Amm)

This is one of the most important works of Shaykh Mustafa al-Zarqa (d. 1999 CE), which he himself regarded as essential for every contemporary faqih. Composed in two volumes, it stands as a true masterpiece, reflecting his pioneering engagement with a wide range of modern legal issues. Among its notable contributions is his early and insightful treatment of matters such as property leases and their implications for the classical discussions of immovable property in the fiqh tradition. His views have had a lasting impact on later scholarship; al-Mufti Taqi al-'Uthmani engages extensively with al-Zarqa's positions in Fiqh al-Buyu, frequently analyzing and responding to his arguments.
