Fiqh of Sayyidah Asma: In Light of the Jurisprudence of the Companions, Successors & Juristic Imams

This scholarly work by Dr. Abdel Wadoud Moustafa Moursi El Seoudi offers a comprehensive exploration of the legal rulings and religious insights attributed to Asma bint Abi Bakr, a prominent female companion of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). Known as Dhat al-Nitaqayn (The One of the Two Belts), her life provides a rich source of Islamic jurisprudence. 

The book meticulously analyzes her contributions across various chapters of Fiqh—including worship, transactions, and family law—while contextualizing her views within the broader framework of the Sahaba, Tabi'in, and the four major schools of thought.
