Bengali: Is it binding on a Muslim to follow one of the four Madhabs?

A question that generates more heat than almost any other in Muslim communities, and one most people inherit an answer to rather than examine.

What the Book Sets Out

Whether adherence to one of the four schools is obligatory, what role the madhabs actually play in Islamic jurisprudence, and how scholarly consensus relates to individual practice.

The four schools — Hanafi, Maliki, Shafi'i and Hanbali — developed as systematic methods for deriving rulings, and the question of whether a Muslim must bind himself to one of them has been debated since they were formed.

Who It Is For

Bengali-speaking readers who have encountered the argument and want to understand it properly rather than take a side by default.
