The Best Explanations of the Poem on Islamic Etiquette by Ibn 'Abd al-Qawi
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh. A questioner says: I hope you will tell us about the best explanations of the *Alfiyyah* on Islamic etiquette by Ibn 'Abd al-Qawi.
Answer:
As for calling it the *Alfiyyah*, this is the first time I have seen it written that way. It is well known as the *Manzumah al-Adab* (Poem on Etiquette) by Ibn 'Abd al-Qawi. I do not know if the one who named it the *Alfiyyah* found an older name for it? No, this requires reflection. As for the explanations, it has been explained by a number of scholars.
It has been explained by a number of scholars, including al-Safarini, who explained it with a simplified explanation; it is a good explanation containing abundant knowledge and many insights. Imam Musa al-Hijawi, the author of *al-Iqna'*, also explained it. I do not know if his explanation has been printed or not. They mentioned explanations for it, and they also mentioned that he has an explanation of it. But the explanation that is currently available and in circulation is the explanation by al-Hafiz al-Tabari (may Allah have mercy on him).
