A special feature of the Maliki Madhab is that it is not really the madhab founded by Imam Malik. The Maliki madhab was the madhab of the 7 fuqaha of Madinah- the grandchildren of the sahabah. Imam Malik came later and became the de facto “spokesperson” due to his mastery.

If you think of the 4 madhabs along the following lines:
Hanafis- most legalistic
Malikis- most simple
Shafiis- usuli
Hanbalis- Hadith over everything
These may have been the temperaments of the imams but do not accurately describe the madhab itself.

When one does shirk, they exit islam. So if someone accuses one of shirk, they are making takfir of an individual. If an individual says that a practice done by the majority of the ummah (istaghatha) is shirk, they are making takfir of the majority of the ummah.

All of the great imams in our ummah followed a madhab. And the ones that didn’t follow one were capable of opening their own madhab.
So you got 2 options. 1) follow one of the 4 madhabs. 2) spend the next 50 years in seeking knowledge until you acquire the rank of mujtahid.

Many people skip class on Aqida after the first lesson saying what’s the point? All of this is pretty self explanatory- which it is. But the real fruit of studying Aqida is correcting false notions we might have had about the Creator and His Prophets.

When you read the rules for financial dealings in fiqh, you see that the shariah often requires “awkward” conversations between parties- such as requiring a set due date for debts to be paid- even with family.
But by doing so, you ensure that far worse consequences don’t happen

The hardest allegiances to shake are the ones that are 99% good and 1% wrong. But we remember Imam Ali’s saying to know men by truth, not truth by men. So if we find that someone we respect is wrong, it doesn’t shake our iman. No one but the Prophets are infallible.

What a degrading way of looking at women and marriage!! Marriage is not a transaction. Marriage is a contract of honor between a man and woman and the mahr is a symbol of commitment and loyalty. It’s not the price of her!! !حشا This view of marriage is completely anti-Islamic!

This might make you think: what happens if a mass transmitted (as opposed to solitary) Hadith conflicts with the ‘Amal of Madinah? Well that’s the beauty of it. The ‘Amal never ever conflicted with any mass-transmitted hadiths- a further proof in the favor of the Madhab of Madina

1: the 4 schools are in agreement that following another school is valid. There is binding consensus on this.
2: the schools of Aqida have far more in common than they have separate. Every school agrees and affirms what is in the Qur’an and what is mass transmitted.
Now apply this to the 'saved sect' Ahl al-Sunna:
You believe mutually exclusive Fiqh + 'Aqida of Sunnis are saved!
4 mutually exclusive legal Schools w/ conflicting rulings
5 Mutually exclusive creeds/belief systems about God: Ash'ari, Maturidi, Hanbali, Salafi, Akbari Sufi

Imam Malik, born in Madinah, mastered the madhab of Madinah by studying under hundreds, if not thousands of tabieen and tabi’ tabieen. Eventually his mastery reached a level where he surpassed his peers to become the undisputed authority on the madhab of Madinah.

This is why the Maliki madhab has what is called the “Amal” or practice of the people of Madinah. What is meant by this is that Imam Malik, in his witnessing of thousands of scholars from the tabieen, testifies they all observed a certain practice.

Unfortunately it is very difficult to attract audiences to Islamic programs, so ilm is cheapened in 2 ways:
1) Taking a high level text and oversimplifying it to teach beginners
2) Taking an introductory book (Like Aqida Tahawiyya) and titling your course as “Advanced XYZ”.

Assalamualaykum Imam, respectfully I’d like to add some caveats since we asked this exact question to Shaykh Zuhayr.
He said that from the Malikis, there are only 3 scholars of importance who stated the impermissibility of the Mawlid: Ibn Al-Hajj, Al-Shatibi, and Al-Faakihani
One of the things that frustrates me the most when discussing the
#Malid
with other Muslims, indeed other Mālikīs who condone the practice, that they have attempted to give the impression that it’s been a practice that was adopted without dissent. There are many Mālikī scholars

Funny enough, even this was not Malik’s idea. He learned this from the great Rabee’a who taught him that 1000 to 1000 (meaning a generation of scholars transmitting to the next generation) is more powerful than 1 to 1 (a solitary Hadith with a single narrator).

Reducing Sh. Ahmed Taya Rayyan and Sh. Ahmed Al-Maghili as mere modern contemporaries is a demonstration of one’s own ignorance of the Maliki school.
Agree with it or not, the opinion that Dr. Shadee has is verbatim the opinion of many classical scholars of the Malikiyya.
Unfortunately Dr.Shadee is now about to double down on this blunder because contemporaries in Azhar & others made the same blunder.
Will we see an outrage from the Mālikīs on this issue? or will silence prevail until this is spread into western communities

If the Hadith was so limited in its narration that it did not reach the various centers of knowledge, it indicates that the scope of the Hadith and the circumstances surrounding it are unknown. It could be Khaas, Mansukh, a Qada, and more. Better to stick to the more Qat’i source
