Summary/Abstract: Along with the codification of the Islamic sciences, many works are written within the procedural and descendent fields of fiqh. In addition to producing works and training students, the scholars of fiqh are also active in the field of practical law such as the qada. One of these scholars is the Shafi'i jurist Mawardi who has many works in different fields. This study focuses on the first and second volumes of Mawardi’s work, el-Hâvi’l-kebîr which was published independently as the name of Edebü'l-ḳāḍî. The study, after briefly mentioning Mawardi’s life, his works, and the edebü'l-kâdî of science; discusses the possibility of using Sunnah as a source, its sections, and the views of Mawardi in the frame of his work, Edebü’l-Kâdî. For instance, it deals with how Mawardi handles the concept of khabar and its variations. Contrary to the classical classification, Mawardi divides khabar into three parts such as mustefîd, mutewâtir ve âhad. Finally this study emphasizes Mawardi’s opinions that go beyond the general conception of Shafi'i sect.
