If the school is the same, why are disagreements between two Muftis?

By definition, fiqh entails knowing the speaker's intention in addition to understanding what they are saying. When a speaker is speaking to a thousand people in the audience, not all of them will comprehend what they are saying. While some of the statements will be extremely specific and unambiguous, others might only be understood by a select few. This is seen as one of the main causes of the inevitable occurrence of disagreements in all spheres of life, including parental guidance, governmental regulations, and even divine revelation. The Prophet, peace be upon him, fostered an appreciation for diversity in areas that the religion did not categorise. prize.

He would even say, "For him is reward," praising the expert who attempted to reach a decision even though his response might not have been the best one. Although the scholars felt a great sense of responsibility to Allah for their lack of vigilance, this idea set the groundwork for them to respond to people's enquiries.
Steps were sought to reduce errors as much as possible so that such attempts might be carried out for Allah's sake and not be allowed to be controlled by desires. Schools of thought emerged as a result of the definition of values and dedication to communal Ijtihad.

The schools offered insight into how the religion was applied in the actual world and acted as a simple means of understanding its foundations, which are the Quran and Sunnah.
They were free to voice their disagreements on any topic that was brought up and addressed. One of the best examples of the distinctions between scholars from different eras is the Hanafi school. The distinctions between Imam Muhammad, Imam Abu Yusuf, and Imam Abu Hanifa are well known to anyone who has studied the early fiqh text Qudoori. As a student, I was always intrigued about the reasons behind their disagreements with their teachers and how these disagreements influenced how later Hanafis viewed differences as a major issue throughout the history of Fiqh, even to this day.


Whether it's the rulings of taking pictures, cryptocurrency, beard length, or the beginning of Ramadan, to mention a few, the fact that these issues are examined from different perspectives of fiqh is one of the things that causes two experts to disagree on a single issue. When drawing conclusions, scholars will consider a variety of factors, including the writings of previous experts, the books' rankings, the dominance of one viewpoint over another, outside social and political constraints, and the influence of other sciences. While some experts may look at their own guild of scholars, others may adopt the stance of some of their more senior teachers.

While others may recognise the range of interpretation in particular scholars' writings, others may even feel compelled to take the recorded fatawa of scholars more literally. This will unavoidably make certain viewpoints appear less accepting of other viewpoints and others to be more accommodating. Since ijtihad has always been a defining characteristic of schools, and the Hanafi school is no exception, the disparities will never completely vanish from the school.

One of the things I find most fascinating about Imam Ibn Abideen is that, even though he takes a firm stand on many opinions, he nevertheless addresses those of others and makes every effort to interpret them in a way that best fits his own. When, however, it isn't affordable, he will identify it as not being the right viewpoint. People can therefore understand the causes for differences if they are encouraged to be tolerant of the opinions of other knowledgeable academics, even if they are not shared.

The Critical Function of Academic Integrity in Writing

Books are an extremely powerful tool for experts and students to share their knowledge and ideas with the world. Nobody is born as a writer, particularly when it comes to subjects that are highly complex and specialised. When I read a scholar's work, I occasionally pause to marvel at the amount of work required to compile the ideas that are included in the words and sentences.

To convey the ideas in the most precise and efficient way possible, each sentence would have been meticulously crafted, reviewed several times, and then changed.

Some people are naturally gifted writers who can produce pages and volumes in a short amount of time. Regretfully, the majority of us must acquire and cultivate this important skill over time.

Students should set aside time to master good writing techniques because of this. Only a select few people will find someone who is unable to write appealing. On the other hand, someone with strong research and writing abilities can communicate their views and experiences to a larger audience.

I learnt that occasionally the audience quotes a book and gives it acclaim to others, even if they may not have read it or may not have fully comprehended it. To the point that they would discuss the book's authors with assurance without having done any analysis. I recall a teacher of mine complaining about the fact that many graduates mention texts like Fath al-Baari, al-Tahrir wa al-Tanweer, or Radd al-Muhtar without really reading the books.

It is regrettable that many graduates today will either not try to read these works firsthand or will not be able comprehend them. Instead, the years spent studying the Dars Nizami make them no more than the typical reader of articles and translations.

Any rigorous Islamic curriculum ought to naturally generate critical thinkers who are aware of the boundaries of study, are able to balance opposing viewpoints, and can recognise the disparities between them. It is only admirable to have a preconceived opinion and make a concerted effort to substantiate it with references when that opinion is unambiguous and does not allow for alternative perspectives.

There are a lot of authors and compilations in the world, but sadly, many of them haven't made any significant contributions.
Acceptance from Allah is unquestionably essential to everything in life, particularly when attempting to serve the deen.

The Journey of Fiqh is Crucial

Fiqh challenges students to extend their limitations by interacting with conversations of early experts and making sense of how they apply to ever-changing situations. When I initially started studying a book of Fiqh formally, it appeared that the author was talking about a society that I couldn't see around me, as well as topics that were split up like a mosaic that needed to be pieced together to view the larger image. I'd spend hours a week trying to read the handwritten footnotes, with some success and others leaving me much more puzzled than when I started.

A senior student once advised me, I recall, to read the text several times over anytime I was having trouble understanding it until it began to make sense. The advice, which was surprisingly effective most of the time, greatly improved my comprehension of Arabic texts and was more helpful than the fiqh component. I had a feeling that learning fiqh would be difficult, and as the years passed, I realised that the journey of fiqh was more important than anything else. Just when you think youve grasped fiqh, you run into with questions, the application of a principle, or anything else related to it, as I mentioned at the beginning.

Unquestionably, one of the most important things that helps a student advance is a trained teacher who can also impart knowledge to them while encouraging their interest in the subject. He knows just what and what not to elaborate on in class, how to frame the conversation, how to push students to ask the right questions, and how to appropriately answer them all while not overloading them with information.

The best method for gaining an advantage in intellectual growth of fiqh is by far this.
However, one should not give up if they do not have such privileges or have teachers of varying calibre; Allah will provide opportunities to those who truly wish to gain knowledge of fiqh. Never give up and always try your best, inshallah.

The student may comprehend the challenges that the Hanafis of later times faced, as well as how this hierarchy of viewpoints led to the application and journey of each case in point and masalah, producing branching off new situations.

Theoretical differences among the author's contemporaries gave the Hanafi school a degree of flexibility in allowing jurists to voice preferences for previously held opinions.
If a student is unfamiliar with the author's preferred positions of authority and points of view, they cannot be considered to have thoroughly studied Hidayah.

In conclusion, I believe it's imperative that students comprehend the author's writing style and his contributions to the discipline of fiqh, particularly when evaluating it to other works that are very similar. Once a learner has a firm grasp of these ideas, they will find it easier for one to navigate the material.

All things considered, studying the book Hidayah offers Hanafi fiqh students a priceless chance to be marvelled at the degree of scholarly integrity and meticulous observance of tradition.

How can one benefit from studying the book Hidayah in Hanafi Fiqh?

One of the most well-known books in the collection of Hanafi fiqh texts is Hidayah. The primary text, on which the author of Hidayah prepared his commentary, includes portions from Imam Muhammad's al-Jami al-Sagheer and the Qudoori manual, written in the fifth century A.H. While Qudoori and al-Jami al-Sagheer are fundamental in outlining the key stances of the school for each chapter, they are limited in offering rationale and justification for the opinions expressed.

In his work, the author of Hidayah aims to logically defend each case discussed and shed light on the reasoning behind each matter. Furthermore, in order to contrast other views held by jurists he makes cross-references between the opinions of scholars from within the hanafi school and those ouside, primarily those of Imam Shafi.

This enables the reader to see how each jurist arrived at their decision and how other scholars discussed their arguments. Although the author does not present counterarguments from each jurist, it is nevertheless a valuable exercise that helps the reader understand how jurists interacted with one another.

In what way, then, should a student approach this book to get the most out of it?

First and foremost, it should be mentioned that the book is a Hanafi Fiqh treatise. This basically means that when all words are removed, the underlying thoughts and ideas that unite to form the given scenario or theme remain and can be thoroughly explored.

Thus, the main goal is to locate pertinent evidence that is subject to jurisdictionโ€”that is, Quranic passages that address the problem. If they have a firm understanding of the verse's language in all of its varied facets, this enables the student to easily determine what may and may not be included, such as labelling it fard or haram, or the degree to which a broad word can be constrained.

After comprehending this, the student concentrates on the passages that can be further explained by reports and the views of the Sahabah. After finishing, the learner will be able to identify the sources that were utilised to build this case and masala.
However, since this is fiqh, a profound level of knowledge and a thorough examination of the reasoning behind each decision are necessary. Investigating the โ€˜howsโ€™ and โ€˜whysโ€™ of this decision and determining its consistency with prior similar rulings will be necessary.

Conversely, viewing individual masala as isolated and separate from the broader context fails to provide a coherent explanation. If there is such a strong emphasis on rationality, one could wonder why it was necessary to cite passages and narrations. The answer to this is that the former can be thought of as the essential framework and foundations without which stability cannot be maintained throughout time. The reasoning behind it plays a similar role to the invisible rules that enable the structure to form and function, which may be formalised by dissecting the entire thing.

The rationale can only be effective when it can be consistently demonstrated throughout a chapter or even multiple chapters and pass the debate test. Naturally, the frequency at which a certain usool is used in a particular context will differ from another based on a variety of factors, including the type of textual evidence that supports the debate and the nature of the subject under discussion.

Once all of this is understood, the student can explore how subsequent Hanafis, specifically the Mashaikh [Hanafis of the third and fourth centuries], addressed additional issues that prior experts had overlooked.

As the heirs of the founding Imams' writings, the Mashaikh, may differ from one another on certain matters, yet their judgements should nonetheless be carefully taken into account. By now the student should be able to discern between the founders' inferred overlaying positions on matters on which they stayed silent, and the Mashaikh's contributions to the clear-cut opinions of the early founders.

Not Every Reader Is The Same

Reading a book and deriving value from it can vary greatly from person to person, in my experience. First-time readers seldom comprehend all the author has written, particularly if the work is divided into several volumes. Even when someone is reading a book and taking thorough notes, they are essentially copying and pasting what the author says and may even believe that they have learnt something new.

Of course, all that a reader learns from a book is worthwhile and deepens their understanding of the subject at hand. The material then starts to sink in and become a part of the long-term understanding after reading the book several times, especially if the reader also reads other sources and has discussions with people. When someone with years of experience teaching and researching a certain subject picks up one of these books for the first time, it won't be a particularly exceptional reading.

Instead, because of all their knowledge, people are able to recognise the author's level of skill in the field and comprehend not just what he has written, but also where he is coming from. This kind of reader will have questions and objections, which turns reading into a critical analysis of the text rather than a simple process of absorbing information.
I can speak from my experience when I suggest that taking notes while reading books on complex subjects is crucial.

Writing down any questions you have while reading is also highly beneficial, even if the book doesn't provide the answers. This can spark your interest in the topic and perhaps even turn it into a passion that you pursue later in life. Lastly, dedicated readers usually read a book more than once. You will gain a deeper understanding of the subject matter and the author's perspective with each reading of the book. It's not necessary to agree with the author on what they write all the time.

The Purpose Of Fiqh Study

The study of Fiqh in the Hanafi school is to grasp the lawgiver's meaning in topics concerning actions and expressions.The lines of text in books dedicated to explaining fiqh are known as masail, which loosely translates as questions or scenarios. As the years passed, jurists began to introduce new problems and scenarios into this ever-expanding encyclopaedia of laws and rulings.
This demonstrates that there is a strong emphasis on not only collecting masail and cases that have been transmitted, but also striving to map out all of the missing pieces of the puzzle.

Just like a jigsaw puzzle, each piece has a spot where it fits exactly, and attempting to position it anywhere else will result in pieces appearing out of place. By laying out a methodology based on the language of the Arabs around the time of the Quran's revelation, the widespread practice of the early generation, namely the companions and tabieen, and the observable consistency in the rulings and laws, the hanafis were able to produce a robust approach in giving a sensible structure to all matters from wudu, salah, hajj, nikah, trade, and international law.

All of this was preserved in a creative way by offering scenarios and questions that allowed teachers and students to learn through practical examples. The teacher introduces the subject in the form of questions or case studies at hand and carefully guides the students by emphasising what the Hanafis look for and contrasting analogous examples.

To illustrate, the hanafis say that the lawgiver only permits ritual purification with water from the sky above. This would imply that the water must be free of any additives that modify it into something other than water. By examining various variables such as earth-based substances, beverages, and squeezed juices, they can compile an extensive array of scenarios that can be linked back to the overarching theme and concepts of using water. Engaging with these questions and scenarios helps learners acquire a grasp of the underlying concepts that underpin this and comparable cases.

Once this is achieved, they can effortlessly adapt it to other topics, like examining a tree's branches and determining the type and structure of the trunk from which they grow. On the contrary, if students view the questions and situations as the end goal of the fiqh books, they are likely to struggle to see the binding themes and overarching principles behind them, resulting in a lack of harmony in the overall pattern of fiqh. Not to mention the apparent contradictions in the viewpoints of different jurists.

The book Qudoori is an ideal text for students to learn about this concept of fiqh. There are just enough scenarios and questions in each chapter to enable students to gradually refine their understanding and fully explore all the concepts. After one has a firm understanding of this text, it is easy to place it within the lineage of later Hanafi writings.
