Yes, but if the Madhab goes against the Sunnah, I follow the Sunnah. For example according to the Shafi’i Madhab, a man break his wudhu if he touches his wife (even without lust). But that contradicts the Sunnah, as the prophet kissed his wives before heading to the mosque to lead the prayers.

But in terms of ijtihad matters, I tend to follow the Shafi’i Madhab as it’s ingrained in us.
The Shafi’i madhab isn’t ignorant of the Sunnah, or that Hadith about the Prophet kissing his wives. Their principles/Usul Fiqh led to that ruling.

To say the Shafi’is is wrong, would mean you disagree with their methodologies in deriving rulings and interpreting from the Quran and Sunnah, which is the difference between them and the Hanafi, Maliki and Hanbali madhab. They didn’t just read the Sunnah of the Prophet and disagree with them. They developed their own hermeneutics, looked at the same evidence the Shafi’i madhab had, and their principles gave them a different conclusion.

You need to develop your own hermeneutics if you want to derive rulings from the Sunnah to say they are wrong, or else your opinion is subjective, based on how you feel, and isn’t rooted in logic like modernists.

your wrong broski. for example abu hanifa ra didnt have as much access to authentic haditth compared to the other great imams such as imam shafii malik and imam hanbal who were well travelled and abu hanifa had to use logic more then hadith due to lack of resources. No disrespect to the great imam

this is why the hanafi madhab has more contridictions against the sunnah and staunch hanafi supporters who blindly follow the school go against the sunnah
Abu Hanifa created the Usul of Fiqh of the Hanafi madhab, and founded it. Those principles are what’s followed by them, not all of his rulings. If he came to the wrong conclusion due to lack of resources, it simply means that the later Hanafis will use that now available evidence through the principles he created and come to a new conclusion.

Yeah all that is bid'ah or non existent to them. One of them even said Imam Abu Hanifa 'relied on logic' like that's somehow derogatory.

Funniest bit is how much of Muslim conveniences in the West rely on Hanafi jurisprudence :ftw9nwa: from drinking fizzy drinks to praying on a plane

I really want to hear how they explain differences in usul and jurisprudence you can see AMONGST THE SAHABA- they all lived and breathed the Sunnah and yet had differences in their opinions on matters that can be differed upon. How will they explain this?

Unfortunate walahi if the faculty given to you by Allah - the same one you are told to use over and over again is considered a bid'ah or unnecessary by some

Yes they simplify the world to black and white. Ok so you have access to Quran and you have access to all Sahih hadith in your library.

Now what? What’s the next step? What do you do with all these texts and evidences? How do you take a hadith and derive a ruling from it? What if it seems contradictory to another, which do you choose? Or are you just gonna go by what feels right?

Do they even know what Usul ul Fiqh is? Or do they reject it entirely? The entire science is based off logic and Arabic language.
