The questioner:
May Allah reward you. Honorable Shaykh, this questioner says: I hope you will inform us of the best commentaries on the Alfiyyah in Islamic Etiquette by Ibn 'Abd al-Qawi.
The Shaykh:
As for its being called the Alfiyyah.
The presenter:
This is the first time I have seen it written as such. It is well known that it is a poem on the Etiquette of Performance. What is well known among the scholars is that it is the poem on Etiquette by Ibn 'Abd al-Qawi.
The Shaykh:
I do not know if the one who named it the Alfiyyah found it an old name? I do not know; this requires verification. As for its commentaries, a number of scholars have commented on it, including al-Safarini. Al-Safarini commented on it with a simplified commentary. It is a good commentary, containing abundant knowledge and many benefits. Imam Musa al-Hijjawi, the author of al-Iqna', also commented on it with a commentary; I do not know if it is printed or not. They mentioned commentaries on it. The poet himself also commented on it; they mentioned that he has a commentary on it, yes. But the commentary that exists now and is in circulation, which is a comprehensive commentary, is the commentary of al-Safarini (may Allah have mercy on him), yes.
