Al-Muwatta of Imam Malik

Al-Muwatta of Imam Malik

Ash-ShÄfi'Ä« said, "After the Book of Allah, there is no book on the face of the earth sounder than the book of MÄlik." 'AlÄ' ad-DÄ«n Maghlaá¹Äy al-á¸¤anafÄ« said, "The first person to compile the á¹£aá¸¥Ä«á¸¥ was MÄlik." Ibn á¸¤ajar said, "The book of MÄlik is sound by all the criteria that are demanded as proofs in the mursal, munqaá¹i' and other types of transmission." As-SuyÅ«á¹Ä« followed Ibn á¸¤ajar's judgement and said, "It is absolutely correct to say that the Muwaá¹á¹a' is sound (á¹£aá¸¥Ä«á¸¥) without exception." Al-BukhÄrÄ« and Muslim transmitted most of its á¸¥adÄ«ths and included them in their á¹¢aá¸¥Ä«á¸¥ collections. The authors of the rest of the six books, the ImÄm of the á¸¥adÄ«th scholars, Aá¸¥mad ibn á¸¤anbal, and others did the same. But, in addition, the Muwaá¹á¹a' contains a record of the practice of the people of MadÄ«nah of the first generations, a transmission of the ethos that permeated the city and ImÄm MÄlik's painstaking clarification of the Sunna, the á¸¥adÄ«ths, the practice and legal judgements. Imam MÄlik's full name is MÄlik ibn Anas ibn MÄlik ibn AbÄ« 'Ä€mir al-Aá¹£baá¸¥Ä« and he was related to DhÅ« Aá¹£baá¸¥, a sub-tribe of á¸¤imyar. He was instructed in the learning and recitation of the Noble Qur'Än by ImÄm NÄfi' ibn 'Abd ar-Raá¸¥mÄn ibn AbÄ« Nu'aym, the ImÄm of the reciters of MadÄ«na and one of the "seven reciters". Among the huge number of his teachers in á¸¥adÄ«th and fiqh were NÄfi', the mawlÄ of 'AbdullÄh ibn 'Umar and Ibn ShihÄb az-ZuhrÄ«. He sat to give fatwÄ when he was seventeen years old after seventy ImÄms had testified that he was worthy to give fatwÄ and teach. His own students included ImÄm ash-ShÄfi'Ä« and ImÄm Muhammad ibn al-á¸¤asan ash-ShaybÄnÄ« the á¸¤anafÄ« mujtahid, as well as a great number of ImÄms of á¸¥adÄ«th and fiqh and thus he is known as ImÄm al-A'immah 'the ImÄm of the ImÄms'.
