Hujjat Allah al-Balighah (The Conclusive Argument from God)

حجة الله البالغة

A groundbreaking work that attempts to explain the wisdom and rationale behind Islamic law and practice. Shah Waliullah, the great 18th-century Indian scholar, sought to demonstrate that every ruling in Islam serves a rational purpose connected to human well-being. The work synthesizes hadith scholarship, fiqh, philosophy, and tasawwuf into a unified framework, making it one of the most intellectually ambitious works in later Islamic scholarship.
