'''Muhammad Abu 'Abd Allah ibn Muhammad at-Tarabulsi al-Hattab al-Ru'yani (May 21, 1497 – 1547 CE) (902 AH – 954 AH) (), more commonly referred to in Islamic scholarship as al-Hattab or Imam al-Hattab', was a 16th-century CE Muslim jurist from Tripoli, the capital of modern-day Libya. Al-Hattab was a scholar of the Maliki school of Islamic jurisprudence (fiqh). His book Mawahib al-Jalil'', which was one of the first major commentaries on Khalil's Mukhtassar (Concise Text), is considered one of the best and most thorough commentaries in the Maliki school of law.
