Colonel Sahib,

The reason why is because a weekend school is deciding to use the tas-heel series or IQRA books for their Islamic studies program and they asked my opinion on it. Personally, I'm more in favor of material from ulama that I know, plus I wanted to get some reviews, pros and cons on it from people who used it before.

A pro is the format is very simple to read and understand and the content increases according to book level but one of the down sides that I see is most of the weekend students come from a Shafi'i background the tash-heel fiqh series is from a Hanafi fiqh.

As Salamu alaikum,

I think that the text al-Mabadi al-Fiqhiyyah by Sheikh 'Umar 'Abd al-Jabbar would be quite suitable for a weekend-type program. It starts from the very basic of Shafi'i Fiqh and progressively gets more detailed will remaining simple in terms of language. I believe it is 4 or 5 volumes and is in Arabic, I do recall seeing a volume or two translated by a South African Dar al-'Ulum.
