[quote][quote]http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/intro/islam-hanafi.htm Abu Hanifa's interpretation of Muslim law was extremely tolerant of differences within Muslim communities. He also separated belief from practice, elevating belief over practice. ... Comment: Then why are the Mullahs so damn uptight and unreasonable over every issue?[/quote] [font=Trebuchet MS][size=2]Assalaamu Alaikum. The connection you seem to be drawing between the Hanafi school and 'mullah-ism'/'maulvi-ism' seems incorrect. Almost all Pakistani Muslims call themselves Hanafis. I urge you to try and quench your thirst for learning about the Hanafi school from any of them. You'll mostly find yourself disappointed. I think almost no one would know what Imam Hanifa said, what jurisprudence comes from his pen.... In Pakistani, the Barelvis, the Deobandis and the Ahle Hadith, all call themselves Hanafis. So, if Imam Hanifa placed belief above practice, how can the three "sects" ever be reconciled. The very thing that differentiates them all is 'belief'. [Sssh, why can't we just be 'Muslims', above everything else!] Is my analysis faulty? I'm slightly unsure. Comments are welcome. Wasalaam.
