فتح البصيرة في قواعد الدين المنيرة للشيخ محمد باي بن عمر الكنتي : دراسة و تحقيق

Abstract EN

Investigating the manuscripts links the past to the present because it aims at disclosing the patrimony and making it available for the researchers.

Sheikh Mohamed Bay (1348 Hijri) was one of the big investigators.

This study aims at studying and investigating one of his books entitled “Fateh Al Bassira fi Qawaid Addine Al Munira” literally “opening the heart in the enlightening religious rules” which was a brief jurisprudent text that has not been subject to a descent scientific investigation.

The study sheds light on two manuscript versions.

The first one is an original complete version written by Al Bakkai Dydy while the second is made up of two versions; the first is written by an anonymous writer while the second is by Al Khalifa Ben Bay.

Findings show that the author tackled basic religious issues in his book according to the Maliki School and 16 Hadiths.
