Which Madhab (School Of Jurisprudence) Should You Follow As A Muslim? Muhammed Ali

Episode Description from the Publisher

Muhammed Ali explains that the question 'which madhhab should I follow?' does not apply to laypeople, who should instead follow a trusted scholar who provides Quranic and Sunnah evidence. For students of knowledge, he clarifies that a madhhab (school of jurisprudence) represents a scholar's methodology and conclusions, not a religiously binding requirement. He emphasizes that while the four main madhhabs collectively contain correct Islamic jurisprudence, no single madhhab holds all truth, and students should choose based on understanding each madhhab's foundations (usul) and what brings them closer to Quran and Sunnah, ideally selecting the madhhab prevalent in their region for accessibility to teachers.
