prof. dr. mas'ud ahmad rahimahullah wrote the book sartaaj al-fuqaha and whilst i was in malegaon earlier this year, it was published for the very first time in india from malegaon by noori mission. ghulam mustafa rizwi spoke to mawlana yaseen akhtar misbahi during the latter's visit to malegaon and mawlana suggested the name ra'ees al-fuqaha because sartaaj is persian and fuqaha is arabic. he felt ra'ees al-fuqaha was better as both words are arabic. here is an earlier copy of the book: http://almazhar.com/Sirtaj-ul-Fuqha.php
