The Dangers Of Abandoning The Four Schools
We all love to be given a choice. Having a range of hats or shirts to choose from is a luxury. But it would be suicide if we brought this mentality of the marketplace into our religion. When a person says it is not obligatory for the Muslim to follow one of the established schools that is what he is doing. People are then free to shop for whatever opinion takes their fancy! This is termed making your desires into religion and it is forbidden by this verse: Have you seen the one who takes his desires as his god (45:23). If the millions and billions of Muslims were supposed to apply their minds to the verses and hadith, chaos would only result. Without the scholarly expertise (or a high level of fear of Allah ta`ala) they would make horrendous mistakes. One of the legacies of the four Imams was their accurate use of analogy. That is deducting new rulings where nothing is clearly mentioned. These master scholars expended their intellects on precisely discovering the basic reason behind a ruling (`illa). If that reason is found elsewhere, they concluded, the same ruling would apply. And likewise if it is absent in another context then the ruling does not apply. For instance, many of the intoxicants and drugs that exist today were not mentioned in revelation. Nevertheless, the Islamic jurists explained, because the basic reason behind the forbidding of alcohol was intoxication, logically these other substances must also be considered forbidden by Allah Almighty. But the Salafi/“ahle-Hadith” campaign to get rid of the schools and their rules, would have individuals (and we are witnessing it happening more and more frequently today) turning to the verses and hadith and arguing,-for example- “I think the reason why ablution (wudhu) was made necessary before prayers was due to the extreme heat people lived in back in those days. In our age we have air conditioners, deodorants etc. Thus since the original reason does not exist anymore, wudhu is no longer necessary” (!) Take another example: “The reason Islam forbade having boyfriends and girlfriends was because of the danger of children being born without there being anything to bind the father to take responsibility. Today, effective contraception is easily available and DNA testing ensures no father can deny his child, thus this fear is now fully taken care of. So Muslims should also embrace the culture of men and women freely mixing and dating.” If the regulation provided by the four schools is thrown away, how do you stop the many individuals that form part of the Umma, who are weak of iman and taqwa, from turning Islam into a carnival of desires? This horror story is the ultimate end of the simplistic call of Salafism. It is this same call that has tragically even led to individuals perpetrating mass-murder on the streets of many cities in the name of Islam! Rather, it is nothing but a subversion and mockery of Islam. The far-sighted scholars of the Ahl al-Sunna long ago understood how valuable these four schools were in safeguarding the Deen of Allah Almighty. So they issued a fatwa that it was necessary for every Muslim to learn and adhere to one of the four schools.
Mashallah Allahu Akbar, very great insight brother. i say u should publish this in a article, seriously it is very good. i have copied ur comment. it is helpful to undrestand the inner dimension of this cursed salafisim which the another name of Free Will

amazing speech
Masha Allah.
This is a very interesting way of looking at this issue. This crossed my mind before, yet it is difficult to know which is correct . May we be rightly guided and hold to that which we were commanded.
marcthezani don’t doubt the truth
جزاه الله خير الجزاء
MashaAllah
No scholar today can even come close to Abu hanifa not even 10%
yes
So really the 4 Fiqh Madhabs are 4 different methodologies and systems to study and produce Fiqh and to give Fataawa. You can’t mix and match to make a new Madhab claiming your following the Quran and Sunnah. Jzkl
I heard that 5th school of thought is zahiri fiqh
the one saying which completely destroys the argument of those who say everyone should be a Muqallid of one of the four fiqh. Allamah Sarkhisi quoted from Muhammad bin Hasan Shaibani:
If Taqleed was allowed then they are more better for taqleed who were before Abu Haneefa like Hasan Basree and Ibraheem an Nakha'ee.
[Al Mabsoot sarkhisi Volume 16 page 28]
Very well, if we are to act on this saying I think we have 2 options for us here:
1. Let's study the fiqh as brought out by Hasan Basree and/or Ibraheem an Nakha'ee, let's compile and form the madhab.
2. We are mentioning people further up and closer to the Prophet; thus it's a good idea to not stop taqleed at the tabieen level, let's do taqleed of a sahabi or, even better, the Prophet. Let's compile and form the madhab of a sahabi or the Prophet.
brother you missed the main point Imam Shaibani (Rahimaullah) made here. he (despite being a student of Imam Abu Hanifa) said "IF" Taqleed WAS allowed then it would better to Taqleed of Hasan Al Basree (Rahimaullah), Ibraheem an Nakhaee (Rahimaullah) etc. he is not saying Taqleed is correct if make Taqleed of someone who was closer to the Sabaha or the Sahaba themselves. Ibn Masood (Radhi Allahu Anhu) prohibited his students from making Taqleed, even if it`s a Sahabi.
first confirm that taqleed as mentioned by Imam Shaibani is by technical definition and usage the same as that used by the muqallid scholars, and that it is used in the same context.
Maybe then we can proceed to research maybe starting in the literal sense like critical analysis of statements e.g. like-for-like comparisons and other analyses to the arabic matn of these sayings/quotes
The irony... of not wanting to accept a *whole madhab* based on the teacher, while gladly accepting and emphasisisng *one sentence* supposedly attributed to the student
where is the irony ? if the students themselves were not followers of the whole Madhab than how could i be ??? by the way it`s not just one student of Imam Abu Hanifa (Rahimaullah). you find the students of all 4 scholars of Fiqh saying the same about making Taqleed of their teacher.

Is following madhab required? ?
of course not. What was the prophet saw madhab?
+Aaron al-Tayyib agree brother. these scholars speak so much about madhab that they forget the concept of hadith.
+Crysus Bu so you believe its must to follow a nadhab?
+Crysus Bu Brother i respect scholars and i take my knowledge from scholars but i dont blindly follow them. The scholars whom i take knowledge from always gives reference from Quran and sahih hadith. i hope i am clear
***** just saying he doesn't have to follow a madhab its not required. Either way is acceptable and still Islam
Ishant sharma follow him on instagram
17:30 lol he said its "cheating" if you follow 2 opinions ? how childish. so when you analyze your religion you have to close ur eyes and follow one person even if it is wrong ..
a layman must follow a madhab
[1] The famous Imam al-Haramayn Abu al-Ma‘āli Abd al-Malik bin Yusuf al-Juwayni (419-478 AH) writes in his book Al-Burhan:“The expert scholars have agreed that the masses are obligated (‘alayhim) with following the schools of the (four) Imams who thoroughly investigated and researched, who compiled the chapters (of Fiqh) and mentioned the circumstances of the rulings.” (vol. 2, P. 1146)
[2] Shaikh al-Islam Ahmad Ibn Hajr al-Haytami writes in Tuhfa al-Muhtaj fi Sharh al- Minhaj:“The claim the layman has no madh-hab is rejected, rather it is necessary (yalzamuhu) for him to do taqlīd of a recognised school. (As for the claim: scholars did not obligate following one school), that was before the codification of the schools and their establishment.” (Vol.12 p.491-Kitab al-Zakah)
[3] Imam al-Nawawi writes in Al-Majmu‘ Sharh Al-Muhadhdhab:“The second view is it is obligatory (yalzamuhu) for him to follow one particular school, and that was the definitive position according to Imam Abul-Hassan (the father of Imam al-Haramayn Al-Juwayni). And this applies to everyone who has not reached the rank of ijtihād of the jurists and scholars of other disciplines. The reasoning for this ruling is that if it was permitted to follow any school one wished it would lead to hand-picking the dispensations of the schools, following one’s desires. He would be choosing between Halal and Haram, and obligatory and permissible. Ultimately that would lead to relinquishing oneself from the burden of responsibility. This is not the same as during the first generations, for the schools that were sufficient in terms of their rulings for newer issues, were neither codified nor widespread. Thus on this basis it is obligatory for a person to strive in choosing a madh-hab which alone he follows.” (vol.1 p. 93)
[4] Shaikh Salih al-Sunusi writes in Fath al-‘Alee al-Malik fil-Fatwa ‘ala madh-hab al-Imam Malik:“As for the scholar who has not reached the level of ijtihād and the non-scholar, they must do taqlīd of the Mujtahid… And the most correct view is that it is obligatory (wajib) to adhere to a particular school from the four schools…” (p.40-41, in Usul al-Fiqh)
[5] Imam Sharani, an undisputed authority in the Shafi school writes in Al-Mizan al-Kubra:“…You (O student) have no excuse left for not doing taqlīd of any madh-hab you wish from the schools of the four Imams, for they are all paths to Heaven…” (p.55 vol.1)
[6] Imām Shams al-Din Dhahabī (673-748 AH) writes in Siyar A‘lam al-Nubalā under Ibn Hazm Zāhirī’s comment:“I follow the truth and perform ijtihād, and I do not adhere to any madh-hab”, “I say: yes. Whoever has reached the level of ijtihād and a number of imāms have attested to this regarding him, it is not allowed for him to do taqlīd, just as it is not seeming at all for the beginner layman jurist who has committed the Qur’ān to memory or a great deal of it to perform ijtihād. How is he going to perform ijtihād? What will he say? On what will he base his opinions? How can he fly when his wings have not yet grown?” (Vol.18, Pg.191)
[7] In the famous twelve volume Maliki compendium of fatāwā, Al-Mi‘yar al-Mu‘rib an fatāwā ahl al-Ifriqiyya wa al-Andalus wa al-Maghrib, Imam Ahmad al-Wanshirisi records the Fatwa on taqlīd: “It is not permitted (lā yajoozu) for the follower of a scholar to choose the most pleasing to him of the schools and one that agrees the most with him. It is his duty to do taqlīd of the Imam whose school he believes to be right in comparison to the other schools.” (vol.11 p.163-164)
[8] The Hanbali scholar Imam ‘Ala al-Din al-Mardawi in his major Juristic compendium Al-Insaf, cites the statement of the famous scholar Imam Al-Wazir ibn Hubaira (died 560 ah):“Consensus has been established upon taqlīd of every one of the Four Schools and that the truth does not lie outside of them.” (Vol.11 p.169, Dar al-Kutub al-‘Ilmiyyah).
[9] Imam Badr al-Din al-Zarkashi states in Al-Bahr al-Muhit,“There has been established a consensus amongst the Muslims that the truth is restricted to these (four) schools. This being the case it is not permitted to act upon an opinion from other than them. Nor is it permitted for ijtihād to occur except within them (i.e. employing their principles that is the tools of interpretation).” (vol.6 p.209)
[10] In the commentary of the Shafi text Jam‘ al-Jawami‘, Imam Al-Jalāl Shams al-Din al-Mahalli writes:“And the soundest position (wal-Asahh) is that it is obligatory (yajibu) for the non-scholar/layman and other than him of those (scholars) who have not reached the rank of ijtihād, adherence of one particular school from the madh-habs of the Mujtahid Imams (iltizam madh-hab Muayyan min madāhib al-Mujtahideen) that he believes to be preferable to another school or equal to it.” (Kitab al-ijtihād, p.93)
[11] Imam Rajab al-Hanbali writes in his book: “Refutation of anyone who follows other than the four schools” [A title that emphatically exposes the deception of the Salafi claim that it is they who represent true Islam]:“…that is the Mujtahid, assuming his existence, his duty (Farduhu) is to follow what becomes apparent to him of the Truth. As for the non-Mujtahid his duty is taqlīd.” Elsewhere having indicated in the latter the rarity of the lofty status of ijtihād, he states: “As for all other people who have not reached this level (of ijtihād), it is not allowed (lā yasau‘hu) for them but to do taqlīd of these Four Imams and to submit to that which the rest of the Ummah submitted to.” (Majmoo‘ al-Rasail Ibn Rajab, vol.2 p. 626 and p.624 respectively).
[12] In the famous commentary of the treatise of Imam Ibn Abi Zayd al-Qayrawani Al-Risalah, entitled “Al-Fawākih al-Dawāni,” Imam Ahmad al-Nafrawi (died 1126 ah) also confirms the Ijma of all the scholars that following one Imam is obligatory: “The consensus of the Muslims has been established upon the obligation (Wujub) of following one of the four Imams today; Abu Ḥanīfa, Malik, Shafi and Ahmad- May Allah be pleased with them… What we explained before, in terms of the obligation of following one of the four Imams, is in relation to those who do not possess the capability of performing ijtihād.” (vol.2 p.574, Bab Fi al-Ruyah wa al-Tathāub, 1997).
+tlsa Mashallah, zabardast explanation bhai
thanks for the copy and paste.. but it doesn't change anything.. following the truth is not CHEATING ! this is religion not high school exam every muslim should strive to find the truth and correct his worship according with the sunnah not your "medhab".
+imsoniceee that's exactly what we are saying . hadeeth Is not anyone's father's property to use it as they like. you coming 1400 years down the line are better than those students of sahaba??
you go to school and university and accept whatever your teacher teaches you. but religion is everyone's father's property, so they can have their comments and research. Mashallah..have pity on yourself , you are betraying yourself.
you're reply is confusing me a little bit but i will try to respond. You are not saying what im saying ..this video is saying follow someone even if they are wrong on certain issue > that is not what im saying dont say "that's exactly what we are saying" that is not what your saying .
There was and is no fifth Madhahib. But more than that. But in our time four have become prominent. Hanafi, Shafie, Hanbali and Maliki. We are to follow them based on daleel. So if in an issue there is no daleel in Hanafi and say Shafie have daleel then we accept Shafie Madhab. And not blind follow Hanafi. Or Maliki madhab has no evidence on an issue but Hanbali madhab has it, than we go with the Hanbali. That's how a Muslim is to live their lives. Following the Quran and the Sunnah as the way Sahabah understood it and the Ulamah based upon daleel. If there is no daleel on an issue then Scholars do ijtihad. So one can follow the opinion that is closest to the truth as there is no specific daleel. We have been given akl. And to listen and read. No one is to blind follow a Scholar unrestrictedly. All the Aimma warned the Ummah of this
OH MY GOD! Allaah will always protect his Scholars in Mecca Madinah and does not need help from Group's or Movements who named themselves after Villages or Places in Far East India which is the Present day Land of Statue Making and Idolatry Worship.
Allah takes help from whom he wishes is not just restricted to madina and makkah they won't be any progress if it was restricted to them two places
Shah Waliullah RA left Taqlid, as did Ibn Taymiyyah RA and others. Scholars restricting themselves to one school of thought is absolute madness.
Proof please

Ibn taymiyyah was hanbali, he didn’t abandon one of the four schools rather he wrote a book called “ in defence of the four imams” Wa‘salamu’alaykum.
This morbid deceiver is at it again. No doubt he represents the Hanafi Club not Ahlus-Sunnahwal-Jamaa‘ah, he asks his ignorant audience why is it that half of the Muslim population is following the Hanafi Madhab? Mr Mufti what has numbers got to do with the truth? Answer me Mr Mufti? What did Allah say about this (numbers) : In Sura 6 Ayat 116 Allah Azza-Wa-Jal says:
وَإِن تُطِعْ أَكْثَرَ مَن فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ يُضِلُّوكَ عَن سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِۚ إِن يَتَّبِعُونَ إِلَّا ٱلظَّنَّ وَإِنْ هُمْ إِلَّا يَخْرُصُونَ
And if you obey the majority upon the earth, they will mislead you from the way of Allah. They follow not except assumption/ conjecture, and they preach nothing but falsehood.
Abdullah Ibn Mas’ud (radiAllahuanhu) said "The Jama‘ah is what accords to the truth even if you are alone" where is the issue of numbers.
Mr Mufti why don't you start to speak the truth?
Also Mr Mufti why don't you tell your audience whom you are holding to ransom imam Abu Haneefah and Hammaad Ibn Abee Sulaiman's position on Eeman? Why don't you Mr Mufti? By Allah we defend these scholars and will never give them undue merit. They are no doubt scholars of Ahlus-Sunnah wal-Jamaa‘ah but on the issue of Eeman both of them erred and this was massive. The blind-follower of the Hanafi madhhab will never learn this because false greatness is thrown at his madhhab and the adherents simply reject any opposition.
Please go and learn your religion.
