Fiqh us-Sunnah (5 volumes in one book) by Muhammad As-Sayyid Sabiq

Fiqh us-Sunnah is one of the most comprehensive and widely used references on Islamic jurisprudence in the English language. Written by the Egyptian scholar as-Sayyid Sabiq, it takes a distinctive approach: rather than presenting the rulings of a single madhhab, it returns directly to the Qur'an and the authenticated Sunnah, citing the evidence for each ruling and presenting the positions of the major scholars where they differ. The result is a work that serves both as a practical guide to worship and as a training ground for understanding how Islamic rulings are derived.

This single-volume edition brings together all five original parts of the work — covering purification, prayer, zakah, fasting, funerals, dhikr and supplication, and Hajj and Umrah — making it one of the most complete fiqh references available in a single book.

What This Book Covers

Purification (Taharah)

The conditions of ritual purity, types of water, wudu, ghusl, tayammum, and the rulings on najasah — all presented with their evidences and the positions of the scholars on contested points.

Prayer (Salah)

The most comprehensive section of the work, covering the conditions of prayer, its pillars, obligatory acts, sunnahs, times, the congregational prayer, Friday prayer, prayer during travel, fear prayer, voluntary prayers, and much more — each ruling supported by hadith.

Zakah, Fasting, and Hajj

The remaining pillars of Islam are treated with the same thoroughness: the conditions and categories of zakah, the rulings of Ramadan fasting including its expiation and makeup, and the rites of Hajj and Umrah with their conditions, pillars, and obligations.

Funerals, Dhikr, and Supplication

Sections on the Islamic rulings regarding the dying, washing the deceased, the funeral prayer, burial, and visiting graves, followed by an extensive treatment of the prescribed remembrances and supplications from the Sunnah.
