For other uses, see Hidayah (disambiguation).
Hidayah (Arabic: هداية) is the Arabic word for present or gift. In Islamic context, it means guidance and leadership as given by Allah. It can also refer to guidance from the Qur'an and according to the Sunnah. It is also the name of a famous Hanafi juridical work by Burhan-ud-din Ali bin Abi Bakr al-Marghinani (1152-1197) which is considered widely authoritative as a guide to Fiqh amongst Muslims in Central Asia, Afghanistan and India, and is the basis for much of the Anglo-Islamic law in India and Pakistan.[1]
