Pteridophobia is the irrational, morbid and sometimes obsessive fear of ferns. Some of the people who have pteridophobia are only afraid of bracken, or fiddlehead ferns. People who have this phobia feel scared whenever ferns are close enough for them to see, or if they know a fern is near. This is a very uncommon phobia, and only a few select people have this fear globally. Patients can feel paralyzed when ferns are near. Children who have pteridophobia usually need to be carried when ferns are near them on the ground.Sigmund Freud, an Austrian neurologist, may have had the condition pteridophobia, but other sources suggest the contrast.
The Hanbali Madhab is one of the famous schools of Fiqh in Sunni Islam. Sometimes English speakers and Arab speakers mispronounces Hanbali as Hambali. However it is a mistake, and it should be pronounce as Hanbali. They recite Hambali as it is a rule of tajweed, but it should only be used in the Quran. The Arabic language is not recited with tajweed. The madhab is based on the views of Imam Ahmad bin Hanbal, and was preserved by his students. However, his views were compiled in a book by Imam Khallal in his book Jami al Khallal.
Imam Khallal is the major reason Imam Ahmad bin Hanbal views are preserved. He was the student of Imam Ahmad bin Hanbal's students. Khallal decided that it was necessary for him to record the views of Imam Ahmad bin Hanbal, so that Imam Ahmad's contribution in fiqh can help the Muslim Ummah. So he traveled and recorded the views of Imam Ahmad bin Hanbal by sitting with Imam Ahmad's 5 major students. He recorded it in his Jami al Khallal and it was 20 volumes in size. However, it was in the library of Baghdad, and was destroyed by the Tatars when they invaded Baghdad. The book was still preserved by Imam al Khiraqi, as he wrote a summarized version of Jami al Khallal.
Key terminology used in the Hanbali Madhab: Often times scholars of the Hanbali Madhab from the past and present uses terminology that is used exclusively to the Hanbali Madhab.
Sheikhan: Literally it means the two scholars. When a Hanbali scholar uses this term it refers to al Imam ibn Qudamah and Majd ud Deen ibn Taymiyyah (the grandfather of Taqi us deen bin Taymiyyah). They are coined in this term, because they were the most influential in the Madhab.
al Qadi: This term literally means the judge. Hanbali scholars uses this term to refer to the scholar Qadi Abu Ya'la.
Abu Bakr: If it is written as Abu Bakr only it refers to Abu Bakr al Marwazi and not Abu Bakr as Siddiq the first Khalifah in Islam. The Hanbali Madhab will include Siddiq if they refer to the first khalifah.
Sheikhul Islam: This term refers to Ibn Qudamah and Taqi ud deen ibn Taymiyyah. However it depends on generation. If it refers to before taqi ud deens lifetime, then it is in reference to ibn Qudamah, and if it his after then it refers to Taqi ud Deen bin Taymiyyah.
The friend of al Mughni, al Kaafi, al Muqni, al Umdah: This refers to the great scholar Imam bin Qudamah since he is the author of the books.
