Assalamualaikum, I am Armom Ahmad from bangladesh and doing research in Islam and i like to gain knowledge about Islam and wants to preach my Religion to others also.. But the thing is that i have struck in 1 part which is very tricky and i am confused totally... I think i can get help from you in this so please help me.. My Question: Why do we follow madhab by knowing that some of their thoughts contradict with the Quran and Hadith? There are also many Scholars who are telling that following Madhab is Haram because its somewhat you are making sects in Islam.. I am still confused about this Taqleed... Allaah says,"Hold fast to the Rope of Allaah, and be not divided" Will this Verse shud be left behind? (NAuzubillaah). There are lots of other verses telling not to maf ke sects! Ii do taqleed and if the Aleem tells me a wrong thing so will i agree with him after knowing that the thing which the Aleem told me is against the Quran and Hadith. For example, Its mentioned in the Hadith that we shud recite Surah Al FAtiah before Imam; But in Hanafi Madhab its mentioned that we dont have to recite Surah Fatiah.. So if we do taqleed we have to follow the wrong thing which is again Quran and the Sunnah.. And there are many more things.. So why do you tell that we have to still make taqleed which can divide the Muslims... Please Answer my Question with Quran and Hadith.. Jazakallaah...
W-Salam,
Before I begin to answer your questions, please explain a few things:
- What is your own knowledge of Islam?
- What is your own knowledge of Qur'aan & Hadeeth?
- What is your own knowledge of Arabic?
And if you are not sufficiently knowledgable in all of these in ORIGINAL ARABIC then answer the last question:
- Since you are unable to gain knowledge of these DIRECTLY (in original Arabic) HOW do you gain knowledge of these?
Jazakullah Khairun
