This study, in particular, discusses the fact that Ibn Hazm quoted texts from al-Baqlani, and the analytical method used, and relied on the method of comparison between what Ibn Hazm aimed to and what is proven in the books of Imam al-Baqlani, and also the difference between what Ibn Hazm transmitted and what is found in the books of Imam Al-Baqlani himself.
