Sunnah Muakkadah are those actions which Rasulullah always did.

There's a bit more detail on here www.albalagh.net/kids/understanding_deen/Salat.shtml

I'd strongly suggest you talk to your local Imaam in regards to Fiqhi Issues.

This is Behishti Zewar (originally written for the sisters however applies to brothers as well) it's a comprehensive book on the Hanafi Madhab.

Some Hanifis I know don't consider the Behishti Zewar a reliable scource

What do you guys think of Richard Dawkins view that being taught about hell is worse than sexual abuse? Expected or genuinely surprised? I can't provide you with an actual source, as it was recorded and will be shown in December. Working on getting a clip of the debate.

I was surprised but it seems to be something that people expect from Dawkins, I know even Atheists who were disgusted by his comments though.

I assume he means that just because he is Shafi'i in fiqh, he is not biased in favour of the madhab and therefore the kind of person who rejects all other opinions and assumes just the ones from the Shafi'i madhab are correct. But I might be wrong.

If you follow a madhab you're basically accepting that whatever the jurists of that madhab say is right.

If he means that all the other madhaahib are also on Haq and they have their evidences to back them up then I'm sure we all agree with that.

You can accept what they say as being right whilst also acknowledging that other opinions are right too - I assume he means the latter.

If Muhammd is a prophet of peace, why did he say he is a prophet of war?

This is mentioned in Sahifah ibn Munabbih (earliest authentic hadith book)

i'm pretty sure you got wrong info since war is only aloud on the battle field and it is the last option :smile:

Prophet Mohammad (may peace be upon him) promoted peace and happiness read the authentic hadiths if your interested il send you some links..

Muslim men can marry a woman of the book - a Jew or Christian.

i mean that all the other madhabs are on the truth but i take opinion from a school if it is deemed to have more evidence for it as in the time of the Imams they may not have had a Hadith that another Imam used to derive a ruling So if i want to know what the ruling is on a specific subject i look at all four schools and the classical scholars to see what the majority say and what their proofs are but this does not mean i legislate for myself or use my own opinion too much or pick and mix from the madhabs to see what is easiest. So my default opinion is that of Imam Shafi

All madhabs cannot be correct all the time, that's statistically impossible. Hence it is best to rely on the views of contemporary scholars who you trust who will weigh up the evidences.

i did not say there are all correct i meant that they are all on the Right path but that's basically what i do (on of the reasons my default opinion is Shafi is because my local masjid is and i just ask the imam or a sheikh if they have an event)

I wasn't talking to anyone in particular. I was speaking generally. Following the Shafi masjid is fantastic. I've been to Shafi mosques before, they're generally not rigid and they usually try to follow the most textually-backed opinions. Whereas Hanafi mosques can be pretty firm, even when their opinions are incorrect.
