Imam Tahawi


Imam Abu Ja'far Ahmad ibn Muhammad bin Salamah bin Salmah bin 'Abd al Malik bin Salmah bin Sulaim bin Sulaiman bin Jawab Azdi, popularly known as Imam Tahawi, after his birth-place in Egypt, is among the most outstanding authorities of the Islamic world on Hadith and Fiqh (jurisprudence) He lived 239-321 A.H.,an epoch when both the direct and indirect disciples of the four Imams (Imam Abu Haniah, Imam Malik, Imam Shafi'i and Imam Ahmad bin Hanbal) were teaching and practicing. This period was the zenith of Hadith and Fiqh studies, and Imam Tahawi studied with all the living authorities of the day. He began as a student of his maternal uncle, Isma'il bin Yahya Muzmi, a leading disciple of Imam Shafi'a. Instinctively however, Imam Tahawi felt drawn to the corpus of Imam Abu Hanifah's works. Indeed he had seen his uncle and teacher turning to the works of Hanafi scholars to resolve thorney issues of Fiqh, drawing heavily on the writings of Imam Muhammad Ibn al-Hasan al-Shaybani and Imam Abu Yusuf, who had codified Hanafi Fiqh. This led Imam Tahawi to devote his whole attention to studying the Hanafi works an he eventually joined the Hanafi school.
