Maliki fiqh
Maliki fiqh is an Islamic legal school founded by Imam Malik, primarily followed in North and West Africa. It emphasizes the Quran and Hadith but gives significant importance to the practices of the people of Medina, seen as a practical guide. Maliki jurisprudence also considers consensus among scholars and analogical reasoning to interpret Islamic law. Its approach tends to be flexible, adapting to local customs while maintaining core principles. Overall, Maliki fiqh aims to provide practical guidance for daily life, balancing tradition with contextual understanding within the framework of Islamic teachings.
