Al-Khiraqi

Abū al-Qāsim ʿUmar ibn al-Ḥusayn al-Khiraqī al-Baghdadi ( – 945/46) was a prominent Sunni jurist of Hanbali school.

He is best known for his work Mukhtasar al-Khiraqi (al-Mukhtasar fi al-Fiqh), the only surviving text attributed to him. This was the first legal compendium composed for the Hanbali school of law, and it was later subject of comprehensive commentary titled Al-Mughnī, authored by Hanbali scholar Ibn Qudama. The Mukhtasar was widely accepted by his contemporaries among the Hanbalis and by the generation after that.
