The correct method for teaching fiqh to the general public is to study a concise book and teach the student the fundamentals of the chapter being studied, along with its evidence, without delving into numerous jurisprudential disagreements and intricate details that can confuse a beginner. The study should be under the guidance of a proficient scholar who clarifies and explains the issues. One can utilize concise books for beginners, such as "Al-Mulakhkhas Al-Fiqhi" by Sheikh Saleh Al-Fawzan. If the teacher is not qualified to teach, then he should direct the student to specialized scholars.
