Analysis of the Kitāb al-Hudūd section of 'Ali al-Qārī al-Harawī's Fath Bāb al-'Ināye

The science of Islamic Law has a great importance for a Muslim individual, since it deals with the religious ruling of all the problems that a person encounters from birth to death. Since these provisions are determined by Islamic Law scholars, it is an inevitable necessity to examine the works of people who have works related to fiqh and to determine their contributions in the field of fiqh. In this study, we examined the hadd section of the author's work Fethu bâbi'l-inâye in order to determine Ali al-Kari's contributions to Hanafi fiqh. In the first part of the thesis, besides determining the information about Ali al-Kari's life and scientific personality in the sources, it has been tried to introduce the intellectual environment of Ali al-Kari. In the second part, the annotation method in the hadd section of the work Fethu bâbi'l-inâye has been examined. In this section, the way Ali al-Kari handled the subject, his contributions to the text in terms of language, and his contributions to the text in terms of fiqh were tried to be determined. In the third part, the hadds section of the work called Fethu bâbi'l-inâye has been examined in terms of content. In this section, the subjects in the hadds section were summarized, his contributions to the text in terms of fiqh and hadith were tried to be determined, and the relationship of the author with the sources he used in this section and his own views were tried to be determined.
