'''''Al-Mabsūṭ fī l-fiqh al-Imāmīyya''''' (Arabic: {{ia|المبسوط في الفقه الإمامية}}) is a [[fiqh|jurisprudential]] work written by [[al-Shaykh al-Tusi]] (b. 385/995 d.460/1067-8) in Arabic. ''Al-Mabsut'' was written in response to opponents of the [[Shi'a]] who claimed that the Shiite [[fiqh]] (or jurisprudence) was very small. According to the author, the book contains all jurisprudential sections and ancillaries discussed by [[Sunni]] jurisprudents. ''Al-Mabsut'' was cited by Shiite jurisprudents in their work. | |||

Muhammad b. al-Hasan, known as [[al-Shaykh al-Tusi]] (385/995 | Muhammad b. al-Hasan al-Tusi, known as [[al-Shaykh al-Tusi]] (b. 385/995 d.460/1067-8), was a Shiite scholar in the 5th/11th century. He was an expert in [[fiqh]], the exegesis of the [[Qur'an]], [[rijal]], [[kalam]] (theology), and [[usul al-fiqh]]. His most important jurisprudential works written before ''al-Mabsut'' include ''[[al-Tahdhib]]'', ''[[al-Istibsar]]'', ''[[al-Nihaya]]'', and ''[[al-Khilaf]]''. | ||

Al-Shaykh al-Tusi says that his motivation for writing the book, ''al-Mabsut'', was to give a practical response to the anti-Shiistic claim that the [[Imami]] jurisprudence was too small, that is, it had few ancillaries and problems, because it rejects the methods of [[qiyas]] and [[ijtihad]]. However, al-Shaykh al-Tusi tried to show that all such ancillaries and problems could be found in [[hadith]]s from the Shiite [[Imams (a)]]. Thus, in his ''al-Mabsut'', he cited many hadiths from [[Ahl al-Bayt (a)]] about jurisprudential problems and ancillaries. | Al-Shaykh al-Tusi says that his motivation for writing the book, ''al-Mabsut'', was to give a practical response to the anti-Shiistic claim that the [[Imami]] jurisprudence was too small, that is, it had few ancillaries and problems, because it rejects the methods of [[qiyas]] and [[ijtihad]].

In his book, ''[[al-Jumal wa l-'uqud]]'', al-Shaykh al-Tusi had promised to devote a book to jurisprudential ancillaries so that the combination of this book and ''al-Nihaya'' could cover all jurisprudential issues. However, he changed his mind on the grounds that jurisprudential ancillaries could be fully understood only if they were put beside jurisprudential principles. He later wrote ''al-Mabsut'' for this purpose. | In his book, ''[[al-Jumal wa l-'uqud]]'', [[al-Shaykh al-Tusi]] had promised to devote a book to jurisprudential ancillaries so that the combination of this book and ''al-Nihaya'' could cover all jurisprudential issues.

''Al-Mabsut'' is devoted to jurisprudential rulings, such as those concerning [[tahara]] (cleanliness), [[prayer]], [[fasting]], [[khums]], [[zakat]], [[hajj]], [[i'tikaf]], [[marriage]], [[divorce]], [[usurpation]], [[renting]], [[waqf]] (endowment), [[charity]] (sadaqa), [[gifts]] (hiba), [[mudaraba]], [[rida']], [[hudud]], [[diyat]], and so on.

He refers to the main parts of ''al-Mabsut'' as "kitab" (book), and then divided every "kitab" into chapters. Al-Tusi compiled jurisprudential ancillaries within 30 or 80 kitabs. | ||
