![]() There is an extract of 'Al-Ghunya li-Talibin Tariq al-Haqq' available online. This book was originally written by the Noble Shaykh Abdul-Qadir al-Jilani (ra) (also a follower of the Hanbali madhhab) and translated by al-Baz Publishers. It's not a book in itself, but at least you'll have some basic rules in English. Please note that I don't know if the informations in this extract are correct. I'm not the one who will engage in endless discussions about which madhhab you should follow, but you should bear in mind that following a madhhab where you have practically no resources (Ulama, Books etc.) available will probably make your life much more difficult. I personally also had a time in my life where I was like 'obsessed' of following the Hanbali madhhab, especially after I reading how pious Imam Ahmad (ra) was, but remember just because you're following his madhhab won't render you automatically into a pious person like him. An advice I gave myself after realising my 'obsession': Don't waste your time on getting your hands on unreachable fiqh if you already have plenty of Shafi'i and Hanafi resources available. Use your time on useful things like Quran reading, dhikr, salat etc. Just some thoughts from your brother in Islam.. ![]() |
