Madhabs are not different sects.

they are different ways of following the quran and sunnah by the teaching of rasullulah sallalahu alaihi wasallam. I advice u brothers and sisters to analyse how these differences come about by looking at the supports and evidences given by each of the 4 imams. insha Allah u will see the truth

Mashallah. Very nice. Thanks for it.

Brothers of Islam..We Are One..i somehow agree with 207....from my knowledge,the imams are very learned scholars..they memorize thousand of hadiths..we can only manage to read thousand but to memorize thousand of hadiths takes really great effort n great ppl to do tat..even the Quran have different Rasm Mushaf but still bein accepted..diff part of e world,diff tongue,diff capability...so Insyaallah there is hikmah behind all these..Insyaallah all our deeds are accepted by Allah..its alrite to d

@MrFaarah08 Yes it is right, and you will find in each school (the Maliki, Shafi'i, Hanbali, Hanafi) slight differences, Insha'a Allah all is right.

And as mentioned about the Prophet PBUH, he used to do things sometimes in different ways, to show that all such is permissible, like for example at times he prayed his hands on his chest, at other times on his abdomen, at other times on his navel. Right on left sometimes holding on wrist, sometimes holding halfway on the forearm...

my dear brotgerm as-salaamu alaikum. i have read in maqasid that the index finger stays pointed down the whole time except for testification, is imam nawawi's opinion weak in our school, with regards to this issue?

[TheSufisomali]

Jazaka'Allah

i didnt knew when to raise the finger befor... i just used to raise my finger at the starting of the tashahhud...

jazakaAllah , now i know

[MrFaarah08]

brothers is that right???

[OumAbdullah100]

asalaamoe 3alaikoem warahamtu allahi wabarkatuh,

people should know, that the madhabs have only differences in fiqh issues.

but never and never in Aqidah.

the Aqidah is the same and one.

wa3alaikoem salaam warahamtu allahi wabaraktuh.

Thank You Wallahi

Raising the finger at Tashahhud is testifying the oneness of Allah with one finger when you say it verbally you add it allowed psychical way.

[hezb786]

i follow it the same as you do...i was taught to make a ring with the middle finger and thumb, and only raise the index finger during "ashadua la ilaha il Allahu"...and then lower the index finger....let me know if there is another way...salam
