Abul-Fath Asad ibn Muhammad al-Mayhani (Arabic: أبو الفتح أسد بن محمد الميهاني) was a Persian scholar, who was born in Mayhana.
According to Ibn al-Jawzi and Taj al-Din al-Subki, Asad Mayhani was a highly influential scholar of Islamic law.
The works (al-Taliqa or the Notes) of Asad al-Mayhani were adopted by the Nizamiyya Madrassa in Baghdad.
[1] Abd al-Latif al-Baghdadi said that his father studied "The Notes" of Asad al-Mayhani, who was very famous at that time.
[2] Ibn al-Jawzi said that many Hanbalites studied "the Notes" of Asad al-Mayhani, even though he was a Shafi'i.
