The Seven Fuqaha of Medina

The Seven Fuqaha of Medina is the title of seven Muslim scholars who were the largest contributors as to the transmission of hadith and making of fatwas in Medina during the 2nd century AH.

They are :

• Said ibn al-Musayyib
• 'Urwah Ibn Az Zubayr Ibn Al 'Awâm
• Sâlim Ibn 'Abdi Llâh Ibn 'Umar
• Al Qâsim Ibn Muhammad Ibn Abî Bakr
• Abû Salama Ibn 'Abd Ir Rahmân Ibn 'Awf
• Sulaymân Ibn Yasâr
• Khârijah Ibn Zayd Ibn Thâbit.

Some scholars include Abû Bakr Ibn 'Abd Ir Rahmân Ibn Al Hârith and 'Ubaydu Llâh Ibn 'Abdi Llâh Ibn 'Utbah Ibn Mas'ûd instead of some scholars in this list, as did Imâm Abû Zahra in his biography of Imâm Mâlik (Mâlik, Hayâtuhu wa 'Asruhu, Arâ°uhu wa Fiqhuhu).
