The work, as the title suggests, represents the result of the discussions on linguistic, legal-theoretical and normative issues that had taken place in the šāfiʿite legal tradition up to this time. Renowned scholars recognise the epochal significance of this work in legal history and particularly appreciate its well-founded linguistic theory and linguistic philosophy. The reading from the Maḥṣūl will be supplemented at appropriate points by other works by ar-Rāzī, with relevant text passages being summarised in German and made available to participants in the form of a handout.

The event will take place in hybrid format.
