as-Sarachsī

Shams al-A'imma Abū Bakr Muhammad ibn Ahmad as-Sarachsī ( Arabic شمس الأئمة أبو بكر محمد بن أحمد السرخسي, DMG Shams al-Aʾimma Abū Bakr Muḥammad ibn Aḥmad as-Saraḫsī , b. in Sarachs ; died around 1096 in Ferghana ) was a Hanafi legal scholar in Transoxania in the 11th century (see Karachaniden ) and is known as the author of an extensive legal compendium.

He was a student of Shams al-A'imma al-Halwani (died around 1056) in Bukhara .

He dictated his great works to his students in prison.

Students from him were from the Qarakhanid in Bukhara and Samarkand to qadis appointed.

Sarachsi wrote, among other things, the Uṣūl al-fiqh and the extensive legal compendium Kitāb al-mabsūṭ , which was published in 30 volumes.

The work of asch-Shaibānī (d. 805), one of the founders of the Hanafi school of law in Sunni Islam, on Islamic international law (dasكتاب السير الكبير kitāb as-siyar al-kabīr , DMG kitāb as-siyar al-kabīr , 'The great book on international law'), is in Sarachi's later adaptation, the Šarḥ as-Siyar al-kabīr (Šarḥ kitāb as-siyar al-kabīr li -Muḥammad Ibn-Ḥasan aš-Šaibānī) .
