A Great Compilation of Fatwa

The Great Compilation of Fatwa (Arabic: Majmu al-Fatwa al-Kubra) is a collection of religious tracts written by the 13th century Sunni Islamic scholar Ibn Taymiyyah.

Description

The works that were collected to form 'The Great Compilation' were gathered and complied centuries after his death to form this work, although, many existed as free-standing works previously. The subject matter is inclusive of most disciplines of Islamic theology, including several volumes dedicated to creed, several to jurisprudence, tafsir and hadith studies.
