    IMAM AHMED BIN HAMBAL: Imam Ahmad Bin Hanbal is one of the prominent Islamic scholars and has

    been given title of Shaikh-


    ul-Islam. Imam’s full name is Aḥmad Ibn Moḥammad Ibn Ḥanbal Abu Abdullah Al-Shaybani. He was originally from Baghdad. He
    was born in the Islamic month of Rabi-ul-Awwal, 164 AH (780 AD) and raised in Baghdad, Iraq. His father Mohammad died young at
    the age of thirty and Imam Ahmad was, therefore, raised as an orphan, which is the reason why he learned to be self-reliant from
    childhood.
    Imam Ahmed studied extensively in Baghdad. When he finished his primary/elementary Islamic education (the Maktab), Imam
    began to attend study circles at higher level of Islamic education at the age of fourteen. Then he began to focus on studying Hadith
    in 179 AH (795 AD).
    He started learning jurisprudence (Fiqh) under the celebrated Islamic scholar, Abu Yusuf, who was a renowned student and
    companion of Imam Abu Hanifa . Then Imam Ahmad remained student of Hushaim Bin Basheer. He then went to Kufah where he
    became famous as an authority on reports narrated from Hushaim Bin Basheer. He memorized all the books of Imam Wakee Ibn Al-
    Jarah and was also taught by him. Imam Ahmad leaned Islamic law from Imam Al-Shafi'ee .
    Imam Ahmad began traveling through Iraq, Syria, and Arabia to collect hadiths. During his travel, he wrote down bout three hundred
    thousand Hadiths.
    He learned and wrote Hadith from more than 280 scholars including: Yaqub Ibn Ibrahim Al-Ansari (better known as Abu Yusuf),
    Imam Al-Shafi'ee, Hushaim Bin Basheer, Ibrahim Ibn Saad, Yahya Bin Saeed Al-Qattan, Abu Moḥammad Sufyan Ibn Uyaynah,
    Imam Yazeed Bin Haroon, Imam Wakee Ibn Al-Jarah and from other scholars at their time.
    His pupils include Abu Al-Hasan Ali Ibn Muhammad Al-Mawardi, Abu Bakr Al-Athram, Salih Bin Ahmad (Imam’s son), Abdullah Bin
    Ahmad (Imam’s son), Abu Dawood Sulayman (famously known as Abu Dawood), Hambal bin Ishaaq and many other well-known
    scholars of that time.
    Imam Ahmad Bin Hanbal died on Friday, 12 Rabi-ul-Awwa, 241 AH (857 AD approx.) at the age of seventy-seven in Baghdad, Iraq,
    after brief illness of 9 days. He is also buried in Baghdad (as reported by Abu Al-Hasan Al-Marwadhi).

    WORK OF IMAM ABU HANIFA: The greatest contribution of Imam Abu Hanifa towards development of Islam is to the Fiqh
    (IslamicJurisprudence). He contributed to the development of fiqh (jurisprudence) by asking intelligent questions andtrying to answer
    them in a structured and methodical way. Imam Shafi was perhaps referring to this uniquecontribution of Imam Abu Hanifah when
    he said, “All fuqaha owe a debt of gratitude towards Abu Hanifah”;method of stating the issues before seeking the answer to them
    was also pointed to as a major contribution of theimam by Imam Ibn Suray, another eminent Shafi’i scholar. Imam Abu Hanifa is the
    most outstanding jurist of Islam whose Fiqh is followed by the majority of the Muslims.He was the pioneer in classification and
    compilation of Fiqh. He collected information for each branch of knowledge. He organized Fiqh into functional sub categories
    starting with tahara (purification). Through his efforts, the first school of Fiqh, the Hanafi school, developed. His school has the
    largest number of followers among the four imams. He is known for his unparallel knowledge of fiqhand skill in qiyaasas well as
    taqwaand an amazing memory. Some of the books directly written by Imam Abu Hanifa are: Al-Fiqh al-Akbar, Kitab al-Raddala al-
    Qadariyyah, Al-Aalim wa al-Mutaallim, Al-Fiqh al-Absat, Kitab Ikhtilaf al-Sahaba, Kitab al-Jami, Al-Kitab al-Awsat, Kitab al-Sayr,
    Risalah Abu Hanifa ila Uthman al-Bayti and Wasiyyah al-Imam Abu Hanifa fi al-Tawheed.
