- Taqleed is an obligation upon laymen and it is necessary for them to follow Ulamah, there is no choice in this matter at all!
- 20-30 years ago the Salafees used to declare Taqleed HARAM and that was the slogan. They have been comprehensively shown that they also do Taqleed of “their Ulamah” so they invested in a new term by saying we do “Ittiba” and not Taqleed,
- This absurdity needs to be highlighted as this term and differentiation is foreign in classical Islamic literature!
- We say you do Ittiba of someone of 21st century while we do Ittiba of Imam Abu Haneefa (RA). I have evidence for specific Ittiba of him, what's yours?
-
The new Salafees have woken up to classical works on Fiqh and they now say, ” No, No we don’t dismiss Fiqh we study them and evaluate them”
-
They now claim that they pick the stongest opinion out of these Fiqh books while those who follow Madhab simply follow their Madhab. Salafi study of Madhabs is primarily based on Imam Ibn Taymiyyah (RA), read their Fatwaas and they quote Hanafi, Shaf'ae, Maliki Madhab according to the lenses of Imam Ibn Taymiyyah (RA)
-
It took Classic Fuqaha years to Master one Madhab, it takes Salafi Mujtahideen one weekend Al-Maghrib course to Master all 4 Madhabs!
-
-
A greater error amongst Salafees is their derivation of Fiqh through books of Hadeeth! Comprehensively they quote Hadeeth in respond to Fiqh issue (even Deobandees are picking this up this error). Look at contemporary Deobandi Fatawa and works and note the evidence!
