This large book represents the research and is marked (Compilers of Hanbali jurisprudence of the Abbasid era). It includes, between its covers, a large group of scholars of the Islamic nation, with its great jurists and mujtahids, from the followers of the school of (Ahmed bin Hanbal) in the fundamentals and branches, and specific to the sciences of the Qur’an, its jurisprudence, and the narrators of the hadiths of the Noble Prophet The best of creation (Muhammad) peace and blessings be upon him, and it also includes a large number of reciters and ascetics, who are known for their abundance of authorship, especially with regard to the collection and numbers of classifications, and they are too large to be counted by number! But can we confine them to the time period? Nearly two and a half centuries, starting from the beginning of the fourth century AH, which is considered in the eyes of researchers, is the most fertile period that all sciences went through, including Islamic and jurisprudential sciences, and what followed until the year (656 AH), which is the date on which the light of Baghdad entered ( Treasures of science and knowledge) at a time when Europe was going through a stage of complete darkness in what is called the Middle Ages, and for this there is no wonder. If the Islamic State and its capital, Baghdad, became a haven for scholars, jurisprudence and scholars from all over the world, which made it an almost (continuous) target for all the evil hordes from the East and the West..
And if Baghdad fell at the hands of the Tatars in (656 AH), when the occupiers tried to cut the necks of its scholars, and threw its civilizational history towards the Tigris, which made its water mix with the inks of books and their scientific and jurisprudential blogs.
