Excerpt From Our Book The Month


Ammatul-Wahid (her name is Sutayah) besides her narrating Hadith was a scholar, jurist and  one capable of passing legal verdicts (Muftiyyah). Al-Khatib described her as follows: “ She was virtuous in herself, extremely truthful, quick to do good deeds and Hadith were narrated and written from her”

She studied Islamic jurisprudence from her father and narrated from him and from Isma’il al-Warraq and ‘Abdul Ghafir al-Himsi. She memorized the Qur’an and the fiqh of ash-Shafi and became well versed in the laws of inheritance with its associated issues, Arabic and more besides. Al-Barqani stated: “She used to pass verdicts with Abu ‘Ali bin Abu Hurayrah.” Others have said: “ She was the best memorized of the people concerning fiqh and al-Hasan bin Muhammad al-Khilal narrated from her.”
