Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: What is al-Fiqh al-Akbar?
Answer:
Al-Fiqh al-Akbar is tawhid (the oneness of Allah). Al-Fiqh al-Akbar is tawhid. After that comes fiqh (Islamic jurisprudence) regarding the branches, such as taharah (ritual purity) and salah (the ritual prayer). This comes after al-Fiqh al-Akbar. The meaning of the two testimonies is al-Fiqh al-Akbar, and the meaning of the remaining pillars of Islam is the fiqh that follows it. We do not call it al-Fiqh al-Asghar, but we say it is after al-Fiqh al-Akbar. Yes.
