The Best Method for Studying Fiqh
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: May Allah preserve you, what is the best method for studying fiqh? Is it to master the school of jurisprudence according to the opinion of the majority? Or is it to know the truth with its evidence?
Answer:
The best approach is to read the curriculum and understand the material assigned to you from the books of fiqh, understanding it well. This will give you a foundation and an entry point into fiqh, allowing you to proceed into fiqh and expand your knowledge. This is the best method: to focus on the academic curricula, because they are the foundations of knowledge and the keys to knowledge. As for flying off with books, encyclopedias, and scholarly disagreements while leaving your curricula behind, this is not the path of seeking knowledge; it is a waste of time. Yes.
