The Unique Views of Ibn Abd al-Barr and al-Lakhmi Contrary to the Well-Known Maliki School Regarding the Two Pillars of Purification and Prayer: An Analytical Jurisprudential Study

Abstract

This research aims to determine the extent of agreement between Ibn Abd al-Barr and Abu al-Hasan al-Lakhmi in their departure from the well-known Maliki school of thought, and to identify the reasons for this divergence. This is achieved through a study of several issues related to purification and prayer.

A comprehensive descriptive, analytical, and comparative methodology was employed to examine the opinions of the two jurists and the reasons for their departure from the established Maliki school.
