Anti Mazhab Quotes

“One wonders what the classical Sunni scholars such as Imām Ibn Rajab would have said if they could see our state today, where we nd the Four Schools being actively targeted and made to seem deviant, and where Muslims who are not Sharī‘a experts, and thus choose to rely on one of the four great imāms, are maligned for doing so; and where people who do not accept the central role of the four schools, dishonestly portray classical scholars like Imam Ibn Rajab as being against taqlīd and, like them, not adherents of any of them, although in the case of Ibn Rajab, his name is never mentioned except with the open declaration that he was a Hanbali???”

“The throwing away of the four schools of law is the equivalent of throwing away of a thousand years of learning. In fact, the state of the one who leaves the four Schools is perhaps far more dangerous, as it is accepted that a person of this age is not on the same level in capability as those early scholars and nor does the fear of God and piety exist today, as testi ed to by the hadith, that would safeguard him from deviation.”
