Imdad al-Fatawa (Urdu: امداد الفتاوى), also known as Fatawa Ashrafia, is a collection of fatwas in the Hanafi fiqh compiled by Ashraf Ali Thanwi, a scholar from India who addressed new issues and challenges.[1] The book was refined and arranged by his successor and disciple, Muhammad Shafi Deobandi, and it contains topics ranging from purification and prayer to issues related to the interpretation of the Quran, Hadith, Sufism, and theology. The six-volume book covers various topics such as marriage, divorce, inheritance, prohibited and permissible activities, and more.[2][3]
