Ahmed Ibn Hanbal and the Mihna is a biography of the famous Islamic scholar Imam Ahmed Ibn Hanbal, written by Walter M. Patton in 1897. The book provides a detailed account of the life of the Imam, including his early years, his education, and his contributions to the field of Islamic jurisprudence. The book also delves into the historical context of the Mohammedan Inquisition known as the Mihna, which occurred during the years 218-234 A.H. The Mihna was a period of intense religious persecution during which Muslim scholars were forced to conform to the beliefs of the ruling Abbasid caliphate or face severe punishment. Patton's book provides a comprehensive overview of the Mihna, including its causes, its impact on the Islamic world, and the role played by Imam Ahmed Ibn Hanbal in resisting the caliphate's attempts to impose its beliefs on the Muslim community. Overall, Ahmed Ibn Hanbal and the Mihna is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the life of one of Islam's most influential scholars and the historical context in which he lived and worked.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
