Hanafi school

The Hanafi school is one of the four major Sunni Islamic legal schools, founded by Imam Abu Hanifa in the 8th century. It emphasizes reasoning and opinion in interpreting Islamic law, alongside the Quran and Hadith (sayings of the Prophet Muhammad). Known for its flexibility, the Hanafi school allows for adaptability in various cultural contexts and is prevalent in South Asia, Turkey, and parts of the Arab world. It covers various aspects of life, including rituals, family law, and ethics, enabling practitioners to navigate modern challenges while remaining rooted in Islamic principles.
