Answer

The Hanafi Fiqh book, Hidaaya, is widely accepted by Hanafi scholars and jurists around the world. The author's name is Ali Abul Hasan, Burhanuddeen was his title.

His birth was on 8 Rajab 511 AH. He commenced writing the Hidaaya in 573 AH. It took him 13 years in which he continuously kept fast. He attained his knowledge from many teachers who were all experts in all subjects. He was an Imaam, Muhaddithn, Faqeeh and a Mufassir. (Dhafarul Muhassileen pg.192)
