Shaybani School

The Shaybani School is an Islamic legal school founded by the medieval scholar Abu Abdullah ibn al-‘Arabi, also known as Shaybani. It is one of the four main Sunni legal traditions, emphasizing a systematic approach to interpreting the Quran and Hadith to derive religious laws. The school primarily developed in Central Asia and has a strong focus on practical jurisprudence, balancing textual sources with reasoning. It influenced Islamic legal thought in the region and contributed to the broader development of Sunni Islamic law, shaping legal practices and religious understanding among its followers.
