Have books been written compiling the fatwas of the Companions, such as Ibn Abbas, in fiqh and tafsir, and what are the names of these books if they exist?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The fatwas of Umar ibn al-Khattab have been compiled in the book "Fiqh Umar: A Comparison with the Fiqh of the Most Prominent Mujtahids," and the tafsir of Ibn Abbas in the book "Tanwir al-Miqbas min Tafsir Ibn Abbas."

Indeed, Malik, Abd al-Razzaq, Ibn Abi Shaybah, al-Bukhari, Ibn Hazm, Ibn Abd al-Barr, and Ibn Qudamah diligently recorded the sayings of the Companions regarding jurisprudential issues. Similarly, al-Tabari, Ibn Kathir, al-Qurtubi, and al-Suyuti meticulously cited their sayings in the interpretation of the Qur'an.
