IMAM ABOU HANEEFAH �, IMAM ABOU YOUSUF �
AND IMAM MUHAMMAD �
Imam Abu Haneefah: also called Al-Imam Al-A’zam, meaning the Great Imam,
was born around year 80 Hijri and died year 150 H. Left a great legacy and a
tremendous amount of knowledge. Qadi Abu Yousuf, and Imam Muhammad,
are both his students. Often scholars refer to them as his companions. Imam
Abu Haneefah was more specialized in fiqh than other subjects, yet he was a
top learned scholar in all fields of Islamic Sciences, loved by all the Muslims,
and Allah blessed him so much by so many people still loving him and making
supplication for him until this day and probably till the day of judgement.
Some ignorants in recent years attempted to blemish him, but Allah will
always protect his Awliya. Imam Shafi’iy said: “people are all children if
compared to Abu Haneefah in Fiqh” ‫رضي هللا عنهم‬.

Imam Abou Haneefah is the first of the four Mujtahid Imāms and the only
Successor (tābiʿī) among them, having seen the companions Anas ibn Mālik,
ʿAbd Allah ibn Abī Awfā, Sahl ibn Saʿd al-Sāʿidī, Abū al-Ṭufayl, and ʿĀmir ibn
Wāthilah ‫رضي هللا عنهم‬.

Imam Abū Yūsuf Yaʿqūb ibn Ibrāhīm al-Anṣāri al-Kūfi (d. 182 A.H.) was one
of the most famous students of Imām Abū Ḥanīfa. He served as the chief
religious judge (qāḍī) under the Abbasid caliph Harūn al-Rashīd. Abū Yūsuf
wrote Kitāb al-Kharāj (Book on Taxation ), which is a basic treatise on the
issues of public finance in Islamic Law.

Abū ʿAbdullāh Muḥammad ibn al-Ḥasan ibn Farqad al-Shaybānī was born in
Wāsiṭ in 132 A.H., and grew up in Kūfa. He was a student of Imām Abū Ḥanīfa
and a teacher of Imām al-Shāfiʿī. He passed away in Rayy in 189 A.H.

O AS-SALAF AS-SWÂLIH
Salaf liguistically pertains to people-who predeceased (good and bad).
However, when accompanied by “As-Swalih” it means: the pious predecessors.
According to Imâm Ibn ‘Asâkir �, As-Salaf As-Swalih refers to the pious
Muslims who lived during the first three centuries after the Prophet  and
were on the path of Ahl-us-Sunnah Wal Jama’ah.

Rasoulullâh  dire:
‫وَنُ ْم ُث َمم ال َم ِذي من يمل ُ م‬
‫اس قم ْر ِِن ُث َمم ال َم ِذي من يمل ُ م‬
ِ ‫مخ ْْي النَم‬
The best of the people are those of my
century, then those coming after them,
‫وَنُ ْم‬ ُ
then those coming after them.

Ref: Swaheeh Bukhâriy HNo 2652

On the other hand, Khalaf, usually refers to Muslims who lived after the Salaf.
