translations[edit]

seems to me that the translations of 'ahl al hadith' and 'ahl ar ra'i' could be improved. Possibly 'family/followers of the oratory' and 'family/followers of [personal] opinion' respectively? the translation of 'ahl al hadith' as 'traditionalists par excellence' seems especially...generous. But I am still a student of the language and I welcome any correction.--Arabicstudent2 (talk) 16:22, 3 October 2009 (UTC)

In more than a few instances in the Arabic Language, as in English, a word will convey one meaning in one context, and another in a different context. In this particular case, the difference in context is between the general linguistic meaning a word and its technical meaning. The word hadith means, literally, speech, and as terminology, hadith as used in this article, it refers to a recorded statement of Muhammad. As for the word ahl, one meaning is 'family' or 'people', however, it can also mean 'a person capable or worthy of something'. The reason Ahle Hadith is sometimes translated as 'traditionalist' is based upon the translation of a hadith, in the technical sense, as a 'tradition', therefore, a person specializing in hadith becomes a 'tradtionalist'. Supertouch (talk) 00:36, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

Asalamu wa 'alaykum Br. I see you're student of language and not Fiqh. Imam Malik's school was called in Arabic 'Ahlul Hadith' and the other school 'Ahlul Ra'i'. this is why they have listed it so thee is no mistake in the translation and why one must cover all bases before publicly speaking on matters of knowledge. JazakumAllahu Khyran! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.168.245.134 (talk) 16:44, 28 September 2014 (UTC)

The above comment is absolutely wrong, sir. First of all, the matter of terminology is a combination of Arabic language and history of these groups; fiqh is the study of jurisprudence regarding worship, transactions, and so forth. Fiqh has nothing to do with this.

Second, 'Ahlul Hadith' typically referred to the main body of Shafi'is and Malikis as well as smaller schools such as Hanbalis, Laithis, Zahiris and those who were unaffiliated with a school but leaned toward the collection of hadith. 'Ahlur Ra'i' referred to the Hanafis (quite a sizeable number of followers by itself) as well as the Thawris. So suggest that 'Ahlul Hadith' just referred to Malik's school betrays a gross ignorance of the history of development of the different schools along with their mutual alliances, rivalries and debates. There are also more than two schools, not simply Malik's school and 'the other school.'

Third, the translation is not accurate as it is a peacock term that is too generous, as said. Traditionalist is fine but 'par exellence' is unnecessary hyperbole and can be deleted.

Lastly, I would suggest that the term used be that which is used in reliable sources (by the standards of WP:IRS). If most English language sources just say 'ahlul hadith' then we don't need to translate at all. If most sources say 'traditionalists,' let's keep it as that. If most sources use a different term entirely, then that source should be used. Sticking with what mainstream published sources use removes the need for many discussions of this nature.

ayin[edit]

Oy! Is there some reason people took out the ˤayns in Šāfiˤī and replaced them with glottal stops (alifs)? Seems silly to have it spelled wrong, especially when the ˤayns are so readily available. em zilch 22:34, 12 February 2006 (UTC)

Acute Misuse[edit]

Anyhow the accent cute is misused as an apostrophe: Shafi`i should be Shafi'i. Terrible, just annoying. For more information, have a look here: http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/ucs/quotes.html89.247.111.108 (talk) 13:17, 6 July 2008 (UTC)

Shafi'i school[edit]

Hi there

Regarding this paragraph:

The Shāfi‘ī school is considered one of the more conservative of the four schools of Islamic jurisprudence, but there are many adherents of the Shāfi‘ī tradition who maintain liberal views in practicing their religion.

It is not quite true, Shafites are not one of the more conservatives of the four schools of Islam. Indeed they are the most liberal ones.

This is a almost entirely subjective arguement. On what basis do we determine how conservative or liberal a mathhad is? Perhaps in regards to individual issues of jurisprudence this can be determined but not as a generalization. Supertouch (talk) 11:50, 19 February 2009 (UTC)

Lead[edit]

The lead of this article should be expanded so those interested in just quickly learning about the most basic information don't have to read through the whole article. Just summarise the main article into two or three paragraphs. see WP:LEAD. Merbabu 12:53, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

Doubtful propaganda might need to be removed[edit]

The paragraphs implying that the other schools somehow also believe that Shafi`i is the best madhhab sound a bit too propaganda-ish. It might be a good idea for a muslim with more knowledge of these things to review those statements. -- 18:06, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

For Non-Muslims[edit]

The history and philosophy of the Shafi'i Madhab is very interesting and important but this article seems to be very short of practical examples. As a non-muslim myself I would be interested to read about the practical day to day difference between the Shafi'i Madhab and any of the other 3 Sunni Madhab. For instance a friend of mine told me that there are different rules of prayer to be observed for each Madhab? If this is true I think this is the sort of information that would be good in this article. Ryan Albrey (talk) 03:11, 27 December 2007 (UTC)

Map blocks text[edit]

Is it possible to format the map so that it doesn't out any of the article?David Cheater (talk) 18:25, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

Two lists of Names?[edit]

It hardly seems necessary to have both lists of notable Shafi'is. I propose deleting the first list entirely, making sure all of the names in it are present in the second. My reasoning is that the organization of the first list is superior to that of the second - as many scholars excelled in more than one disciple their name would then appear on the list more than once.Supertouch (talk) 23:42, 13 September 2009 (UTC)

Regional spread info is inconsistent with the Hanafi article[edit]

Hanafi article says:

Today, the Hanafi school is predominant among the Sunnis of Egypt, Syria, Lebanon, Palestine, Central Asia, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Bangladesh, India, China as well as in Iraq, Mauritius, Turkey, Albania, Bosnia, Kosovo, Macedonia in the Balkans and the Caucasus.

and the map in Hanafi article indicates similar info. Now, this Shafi'i article says:

It is the dominant madhab of Syria, Palestinian Territories, Lebanon, United Arab Emirates, Chechnya, Kurdistan, Egypt, Djibouti, Eritrea, Somalia, Yemen, Sudan, Maldives, Singapore, Malaysia, Brunei Darussalam and Indonesia.

So both articles make claims about being dominant in Egypt and the Levant areas. From cursory google search I get the impression that the Hanafi claims for dominance in these places are valid for the modern times and the Shafi'i ones refer to some past era and are no longer relevant. 76.24.104.52 (talk) 04:12, 18 July 2010 (UTC)

Merge[edit]

Content was recently merged from Sunni Islam, though the more relevant discussion can be found on that article's talk page. Per Wikipedia:Merging, however, I am still required to open a discussion here. I would suggest reading my comments on Talk:Sunni Islam first. MezzoMezzo (talk) 05:38, 9 January 2013 (UTC)

Accuracy[edit]

Really disappointing that Wikipedia doesn't have a proper article on this important school of jurisprudence. There are: 0 in line citations, many dubious assertions, general formatting issues (over-linking, prose style, poor writing, lead etc). Uphill task. --Tachfin (talk) 15:42, 5 May 2014 (UTC)

Well, GoogleBooks might be a good place to start for the history of the school. The task intimidates me, and possibly others, simply because there is a buttload of material out there from Brill Publishers, major university presses and so forth and while it provides a good amount of citable material on the onehand, it also makes for a mammoth undertaking to create a real article on the other hand. If we can round up some support on Wikiprojects and other places, are you down to volunteer some time? I'll step forward and admit that I would only be willing if others jump on the bandwagon too. MezzoMezzo (talk) 05:03, 6 May 2014 (UTC)

Sorry, forgot to tag. User:Tachfin, what do you think of the above? MezzoMezzo (talk) 03:47, 7 May 2014 (UTC)

@ User:MezzoMezzo Yes but unfortunately I can't promise any scheduled commitment. Before posting the above message, I had already started improving the prose then stopped when I realised the quantity of work needed. I think there may be a better earlier version of this article, we might start from there. The good news is, the Shafi'i school is relatively well formalised and documented, therefore one good synthesis book or paper could be sufficient to source most of the article. --Tachfin (talk) 05:13, 7 May 2014 (UTC)

User:Tachfin, I agree on all counts. It doesn't have to be done tomorrow, so a scheduled thing would be cumbersome. GoogleBooks might be a good place to start, I will run a quick search in a few moments to see if I can throw in citations for at least the basic info. MezzoMezzo (talk) 03:29, 8 May 2014 (UTC)

Four or five schools?[edit]

Opening sentence says 'The Shafi'i (Arabic: شافعي‎ Šāfiʿī ) madhhab is one of the four schools of Islamic law in Sunni Islam'. The Infobox lists five schools: Hanafi, Hanbali, Maliki, Shafi'i, and Ẓāhirī. So, is it 4 or 5? Muzilon (talk) 10:21, 6 August 2015 (UTC)

• @Muzilon: four schools form about 99% of Sunnism. The fifth school exists but most lay people haven't heard of it. That occasionally causes righteous Muslim editors to come in guns blazing to correct what they feel is a basic piece of knowledge only to find out that tecnically it's five, and the topic has been done to death across a few talk pages. Byt technically, five, though a great deal of people only know of four. MezzoMezzo (talk) 03:33, 10 August 2015 (UTC)

Removing the bias in the page.[edit]

Peace, I have provided my argument here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:NeilN#Peace.2C_here_to_go_through_what_you_said_I_did.

Too long didn't read.

Biased, makes 5% of the Madhab seem like 95%.

Orphaned references in Shafi‘i school[edit]

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Shafi‘i school's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Br.shafi Speech Videos

BARCELONA: Barcelona president Josep Maria Bartomeu resigned from the club on Tuesday ahead of a vote of no confidence that was due to be held next month after some 20,000 fans signed a petition demanding that he step down.

The rest of the board of directors also resigned.

'It`s a thought-out, serene, informed decision' to resign, Bartomeu said in a televised speech.

Bartomeu, 57, has been facing growing resentment in the last year due to the club’s worsening finances and the team’s decline on the pitch, which came to a head with their 8-2 defeat to Bayern Munich in the Champions League quarter-finals in August.

He has been widely criticised after talisman forward Lionel Messi requested a transfer following the Champions League humiliation and was facing a vote of no confidence from the club`s `socios`.

He had tried to convince the Catalan government to scrap the censure vote due to the coronavirus pandemic but it would not budge.

Bartomeu called the government`s decision irresponsible in his speech while thanking the club and saying he could not have resigned earlier.

Br.shafi Speech In Nizamabad

'The easiest thing after the Champions (League defeat) was to resign, but one had to take decisions amid an unprecedented global crisis,' he said, adding that later on, in the wake of the Messi spat, he could not let the club be run by external, temporary figures.

'Who would have ensured that Messi stayed? Who would have hired a new coach?' said Bartomeu, who took over at Barcelona from Sandro Rosell in 2014.

Messi handed Barca an official notice in August of his desire to terminate his contract before eventually deciding to stay for this season, the last on his current deal because he did not want to face a legal battle with the club.

After rowing back on his decision to leave, the Argentine continued to attack Bartomeu in a September interview, when he described his stewardship of the club as a 'disaster'. He also criticised Barca for their treatment of Luis Suarez, who left the club for Atletico Madrid.

On the pitch, Barca`s struggles have continued into the new campaign after they ended last season trophyless.

Having appointed their former player Ronald Koeman as a manager in the close season, Barca have won only two of their opening five league games and lost 3-1 at home to rivals Real Madrid on Saturday.
