This workbook is NOT for independent self-study; it is your study guide and resources for the classes by Ustaadh Moosaa Richardson (or anyone else teaching this text, Risaalah Lateefah Jaami’ah.)
Abul-Muthaffir as-Sam’aanee (d.489, may Allah have Mercy on him) said:
Whoever does not know the foundations of the meanings of Fiqh (i.e. Usool al-Fiqh) shall not be saved from occasions of taqleed (bling following) and being considered among the [unlearned] common folk…
Shaykh al-Islaam Ibn Taymiyah (d.728, may Allah have Mercy on him) stated:
A person must have usool kulliyyaat (broadly applicable maxims) from which he derives rulings on juz’iyyaat (individual cases), so that he can speak with knowledge and balance, and so he knows about how those individual cases are to be assessed. Otherwise, he would remain in lies and ignorance regarding those individual cases, and in ignorance and oppression regarding the maxims. Such [ignorance] produces a serious level of corruption…


This book, Risaalah Lateefah Jaami’ah, is an excellent starting point for studying the science of Usool al-Fiqh (Islamic Legal Maxims). Shaykh ‘Abdur-Razzaaq ibn ‘Abdil-Muhsin al-Badr (may Allah preserve him and his father) described it as: “One of the best books one could start with in the field of Usool al-Fiqh.” He went on to explain this in detail, listing a number of special features of this book which make it especially befitting for study:
- Comprehensiveness: It includes the most essential fundamentals of Usool al-Fiqh.
- Conciseness: It is befittingly summarized and not long-winded.
- Simplicity: Its expressions are clear and easy to understand.
- Absence of unnecessary rhetoric, which is found in many books on Usool al-Fiqh.
- Effectiveness: It truly assists a learner in understanding texts of revelation.
- Reliability: It was authored by a masterful scholar, ‘Abdur-Rahmaan ibn Naasir as-Sa’dee.

Salam alaykoum, I was looking for a book or an article on the concept of « Rukhsa », which are, if I am not wrong, « concessions embedded in Islamic rulings ». Could you one day gather some statements and examples, then make an article or an audio on this topic ? It would be great.
Wa ‘alaykum as-Salaamu wa rahmatullaah. What you are asking about has been covered in our Usool al-Fiqh classes, as found here:

Assalamualaikum. Is what is used of psychology in graphic design halal to learn? Like for example it is said that if you use this colour it invokes such a feeling and if you arrange the image like this it has such effect?… [message truncated by admin]
Wa ‘alaykum as-Salaamu wa rahmatullaah wa barakaatuh. Whatever of that is based on actual science and observable trends of human behavior, then it is permissible worldly knowledge. If any of that is based on numerology or demonic imagery, or magic or the likes, all of that is of course impermissible. And Allah knows best.
