The Meaning of the Unique Rulings of Imam Ahmad

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, what is the meaning of the phrase "the unique rulings of Imam Ahmad (may Allah have mercy on him)"?

Answer:
It means that he differed from the other three Imams with this ruling; that is, he held this view while Abu Hanifah, Malik, and al-Shafi'i did not. This is the meaning of "the unique rulings of Ahmad." He differed from the three Imams: Abu Hanifah, Malik, and al-Shafi'i. Yes. And there is now a separate book on these unique rulings, a standalone poetic composition with a commentary, titled *Nazm al-Mufradat*. Yes.
