Abstract
Despite recognition of AbÅ« l-Ḥasan al-RustughfanÄ« (d. ca. 345/956) as the most important student of AbÅ« Manṣūr al-MÄturÄ«dÄ« (d. 333/944), a sustained treatment of his theological views has not hitherto appeared. One of the challenges that has been identified in prior studies is a lack of primary sources. To overcome this obstacle, I analyse manuscripts of âBÄb al-mutafarriqÄt min fawÄʾidâ and âal-Asʾila wa-l-ajwiba,â two texts recording al-RustughfanÄ«âs theological responsa, locating them within available bibliographic information and discussing the question of literary structure. I then contextualise the material within the polemical milieu of mid-fourth/tenth century Samarqand, arguing that al-RustughfanÄ« is the earliest figure in the SamarqandÄ« ḤanafÄ« kalÄm tradition to self-consciously adopt the full name ahl al-sunna wa-l-jamÄÊ¿a to express his theological identity. Finally, I provide an annotated theological overview of the main doctrines found in the texts with a detailed case study on divine speech and the QurʾÄn, showing how al-RustughfanÄ« bridges the gap between al-MÄturÄ«dÄ«âs rationalistic kalÄm and the ḤanafÄ« traditionalism of al-ḤakÄ«m al-SamarqandÄ« (d. 342/953).
