    JazakAllahukhair for saying that the imams were all great pious men. And their piety was never in question. If we were to choose the madhab on the level of their piety it would be impossible to select one.

    Yes, we follow the Quran and Sunnah only. We don’t follow the way of men. But we get to that understanding by asking the Great Imams 😉.

      Apparently the great imaams’ students differed from great imaams in almost half of the original fatawas in some cases. Pls learn fiqh from authentic scholars who rely on Allah and His messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) when there is a difference of opinion among the conclusions drawn between the great imaams.

    The biggest evidence for following the four Imams is Ijmah on their validity throughout earlier ages. For some 800 years or more, there were four maqmat in the masjid al haram, one for each madhab. Now you can call four maqamat for leading prayer bidah (I think its in an example of what Imam Shafi and Nawawi call bidah mubah, the permissible bidah), but the fact that there were only four maqamat for each of the four madhab, and that for all those centuries no one criticised it, shows that for 800 years or plus there was a recognition that sunni Islam has four conclusive schools of jurisprudence.
    Imam Shafee said he would choose Ijmah over a sahih hadith, because Ijmah is established through mutawatir hadith and through Qur'an itself (3:110) but a single hadith can be abrogated or only for a specific time or place or situation.

    • @lukemaunehakeem147
      @lukemaunehakeem147 4 місяці тому +1

      Majority practice based on a potential mutawatir hadith over a proven saheeh hadith?
      All this gymnastics to prove your madhab or only 4 madhabs imaams are superior? Rest no scholar is true or sincere?
      Glad to be a muslim who follows all scholars who support their arguments from Quran and Sunnah and do sincere attempts at reaching a conclusion.
      May Allah guide.

      @@lukemaunehakeem147It is not about sincerity it is about safety. Any modern scholar is too far removed to do Ijtihad over settled issues. The first thing to understand is that Hadith is not Sunnah by itself, Hadith are the sayings of the prophet whose veracity has been graded by Muhadithin, their interpretation in Fiqh requires a more wholistic understanding of the Deen.

    Beautiful video. Saying Islam has too many rules and that religion should be easy are stupid. Rules are meant for ease, they create order and give us a framework to follow. The Quran calls Islam a deen, and deen means a complete system of life. No one says "Oh the united states has too many laws," or, "I live in a country that has all these rules and regulations regarding finance and social matters." Islam is not a simple fortune cooky religion, it gives us law so we can function as a society. Every society needs law and legal experts. But not everyone can be a legal expert, there needs to be farmers and builders and police and other people. These people who are not legal experts have to follow legal experts in what they say. No society can function without such rules, so why must an Islamic society be different. Why would God send down revelation regarding spiritual matters only, and leave us with imperfect ways to govern and operate societies. It makes sense God gives us guidance for all things and not leave us in the dark regarding critical matters of legislation. So why are we trying to make it look like Islam is something lawless and ruleless or that an Islamic society is this illogical system where there are either no laws or somehow everyone can be a legal expert. The fact islam has rules for everything doesn't make it hard to follow, it makes things easy for us because laws streamline things and are there to introduce order in society.
    Hazrat Umar sent different sahaba to be muftis of different cities. He didn't leave it to the common man to interpret Quran and hadith the way they want, he made things easy for them by sending each city a legal expert; a mufti.

    In an ideal islamic society, where theres a difference of opinion between 2 brothers of 2 different madhabs in a civil matter or a matter of business, which madhab conclusion becomes the ruling? Is this a non question since islamic societies on a whole tend to be ruled by one madhab or another? Or would the ideal islamic society be ruled in different districts according to what madhab exists there? In Egypt for example, entire towns are educated upon one madhab, while other towns are educated upon amother.
    - You said earlier in the 1st generation, there werent but 2 madhabs, mecca & medina being under one, and Kufa being the other, what were those two called again, ahl el hadith and ahl el analogy?

      The core difference really is not so much about which sahabah they prefer to narrate from, but about their degree of acceptance of hadiths when it comes to defining Sunnah.
      So in general...
      Malikis only accept a hadith if it doesn't clash with the amal of Medina during Malik's time.
      Hanafis only accept a hadith if the sahaba practiced what is narrated and if the hadith is the level of mutawatir and in harmony with rationality.
      Hanbalis accept ahad hadiths and the Shafiis accept ahad hadiths with conditions.

    As per hanafi madhab i believe the hair should be wiped from front until the crown.
    If i do wudhu shafi madhab way, which hanafi madhab considers incomplete, will the prayer be considered complete by both madhab?
    Should we consider wudhu and prayer , one single action?

    جَزَاكَ ٱللَّٰهُ خَيْرًا. Due to the reason that I do not have the resources nor a community that follows Maliki fiqh, I follow the fiqh of the majority in my area (which is Hanafi fiqh). I went to the mosque and asked the Imam whether sadl is acceptable or not, with him replying that it won’t invalidate the prayer I.e. the prayers are excepted, but the prayer wouldn’t be prayed as to the majority opinion of the school which is qabd. Similar to Malikis who only practise qabd, which also isn’t the majority view of their fiqh, but the salah being accepted anyways.

    • @AC-ov2hn
      @AC-ov2hn Місяць тому

      السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته,
      There was the following concern:
      As I researched more and more about the position of sadl (leaving the hands at the sides rather than qabd, which is holding them) I wanted to practise sadl.
      But the question at that time was the following - do I need to change my fiqh (which is Hanafi) to Maliki fiqh if I want to practise sadl? Or can I still follow every aspect of fiqh in the Hanafi school with the exception of sadl?
      As for the question - I asked my local imam (who is Hanafi) about this topic, he mentioned that it was seen as a sunnah in the three schools of thought, but leaving them by the sides (sadl) wouldn’t invalidate the prayer nor make it invalid in any way.
      Similar to younger generations of malikis in Morocco and North Africa that don’t follow the majority view of their fiqh, which is sadl, but their prayers are accepted anyways.
      Ahlulsunnah sees both qabd and sadl as parts of the sunnah, even though certain schools see the other as more authentic.
      What do you think about this?

      This makes no sense. There are scholars who do agree that you do not need to follow a madhab. No one is making their own rulings. You are taking the most logical, or most strongest from each. You can't blindly follow the madhabs. Perhaps swallow your ego and arrogance before being condescending. You're trying to create divisions and act superior with a difference in opinion. You're limiting yourself as a Muslim by confining yourself to a madhab. Just like political identity when people want to go right or lefy for evrything, even though when the other side has better cases for some situations. You follow Islam, and yes madhabs make sense, but you don't follow madhabs.
