This book examines the Maliki madhhab and its roots in the legal practice of Medina (ʿamal ahl al-Madīnah), presenting it as central to early Islamic jurisprudence. It includes an annotated English translation of al-Raʿī’s 15th-century treatise Intisar al-faqir al-salik, which defends the superiority of the Maliki school. Dutton provides historical context on Imam Malik, debates among madhhabs, and the role of Medina’s traditions, arguing that the Maliki school embodies both intellectual legitimacy and contemporary relevance in Islamic legal thought.
