Being a mujtahidhas conditions, from them: 1. That he knows the Shari'ah proofs which he needs in his ijtihad - such as the ayat (verses) and ahadithpertaining to rulings. 2. That he knows what relates to the authenticity or weakness of a hadith, such as having knowledge of the isnad(chain of narration) and it's narrators, and other than this. 3. T...
It is essential that the Mujtahid strives in expending his efforts to arrive at knowledge of the truth, and to give rulings in accordance to what is apparent to him. If he is correct, then he has two rewards: one for his ijtihad, and the other for arriving at the truth - since arriving at the truth means that it is manifested and acted upon. If, ho...
Linguistically, taqlid means: Placing something around the neck, which encircles the neck. Technically it means: Following he whose sayings is not a hujjah(proof). Excluded from our saying, "Following he whose saying is not a proof." is: following the Prophet sallallahu 'alayhi wa sallam, following the ijma' and also following the saying of the Sah...
Taqlidis done in two cases: 1. When the muqallid is an 'ami (a common person) who does not have the ability to acquire knowledge of the Shari'ah ruling by himself. So taqlid is obligatory upon him, due to the saying of Allah - the Most High, "Ask the people of knowledge if you do not know." [Al-Qur'an 16:43] So he does taqlidof one whom he consider...
Taqlidis of two types: general and specific. The general type: that a person sticks to a particular madhhab (school of thought), accepting it's concessions and non-concessions, in all matters of the Din. The scholars have differed about such a state. So some amongst the late-comers have reported that this is obligatory upon him, due to his inabilit...
Allah - the Most High- said: And the Ahlu'dh-Dhikr are the Ahlu'l-'Ilm (the people of knowledge), whereas the muqallidis not a person of knowledge who is followed - rather he himself is a follower of someone else. Ibn 'Abdul Barr (d. 463H) and others have said: Ibn Al-Qayyim (d. 756H) said: Ibn Al-Qayyim then quotes:
He is Abu 'Abdullah, Muhammad ibn Salih ibn Muhammad ibn 'Uthaymin al-Wuhaybi at-Tamimi. He was born in the town of 'Unayzah (Saudi Arabia) on the 27th of the blessed month of Ramadhan in the year 1347H. He memorised the Qur'an during his early life and then continued seeking knowledge under two students of Shaykh 'Abdur-Rahman as-Sa'di. He then co...
1) Mujtahid’s following other scholars’ Ijtihad despite that the truth has been made clear to him with confirmed evidence from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him: Such Taqlid is not permissible for it contradicts that which has reached him from evidence and Ijma` (Consensus of Muslim Scholars).
Taqlid is the activity that the legally unaccomplished (called muqallid or ˓ammi) are forced to perform. As they have no legal qualifications, they must merely obey the interpretation of the law put forward by the mujtahid. Taqlid in the Sunni tradition was, however, not always used with negative connotations.
