Credit to Shaykh Musa for publishing this important work of Shafi'i fiqh. It is easy to read in both Arabic and English, properly organised and formatted and, most importantly, is accurate and a great text to learn with a qualified scholar. I hope more works are forthcoming and that people benefit, Insha'Allah.

This is an exceptional ebook that presents both the Arabic text and English translation of Qadi Abu Shujaa's Ghayat al-taqrib, a manual of Islamic law according to the Shafii school. The translator, Shaykh Musa Furber, has studied Islamic law, theology, and the ancillary sciences for over a decade and a half under qualified teachers from various parts of the Muslim world, including Damascus, Syria and al-Azhar. He has brought his considerable expertise to translating one of the key teaching texts of the Shafii school and making it accessible in a unique format for modern English speaking Muslims. It is a most welcome addition to the library of classical texts in English. The original Arabic has served as a teaching text for countless Muslims over a span of centuries and it is hoped that this translation will have the same reception amongst English speaking Muslims.
