Dār al-Manhal bookstore in Damascus.

Around 90% of Islamic books were banned by the former regime as mentioned by the owner.

The bookstore mostly publishes Shāfi‘ī and Ḥanafī fiqh texts, Lugha and Ḥadīth works.

While discussing the contention between Hishām Ibn ʿUrwah and Ibn Ishāq, al-Dhahabī says:

“We heard (hadīths) from a number of women, but we did not see them. Likewise, many Tābiʿīn narrated from al-Sayyidah ʿĀʾishah, and they never ever saw her.”

— Siyar Aʿlām al-Nubalāʾ, 7/38
