This study aims to examine the etiquettes of supplication as articulated by Imam Abu al-Faraj Ibn al-Jawzi through his book Minhj al-Qidn wa Mufd al-diqn, by collecting, classifying, and analyzing these etiquettes and clarifying their juristic implications.The study addresses the following research question: What are the etiquettes of supplication identified by Ibn al-Jawzi in the aforementioned book?The research adopts a descriptive methodology based on presenting Ibn al-Jawzi's original texts related to the topic in full, comparing them with his views in other works to verify his juristic choices, and reviewing the opinions of the four Sunni schools of jurisprudence.Qur'anic verses are documented, Prophetic traditions are traced, and the grounds of legal reasoning are clarified.The study concludes that Ibn al-Jawzi systematically outlined the etiquettes of supplication in fourteen sections, encompassing both outward and inward dimensions.These include observing virtuous times and circumstances, facing the qiblah, lowering the voice, beginning supplication with the remembrance of God and prayers upon the Prophet , avoiding artificial rhymed prose, adhering to transmitted supplications, manifesting humility and reverence, maintaining resolve and certainty in response, persisting without haste, and prioritizing repentance, restoring rights, and lawful sustenance as foundational conditions for acceptance.The findings further demonstrate that Ibn al-Jawzi's positions align closely with the Hanbali school and broadly concur with the views of the majority of jurists.The study recommends further scholarly attention to the outward and inward etiquettes of worship as presented in Minhj al-Qidn, given its comprehensive approach to practical spiritual refinement.
