The Schools of Law
The laws were fixed by the ones who knew them very well. The caliph was able to take care of everything.
Once arrived in Damascus they needed someone who could administrate the law
4 schools of law developed:
1. HANAFITA:
- more liberal, more space to the jurist opinion;
- they used the brain in order to find an analogy with the behaviour of the Prophet and the present case;
- they were more open minded.
2. MALIKITA:
- more conservative;
- approach strictly related to the Sura of Medina. The Mecca one is more spiritual, on the contrary this is more related to the events. They are trying to adapt something that was issued in the time of a small community, but now the situation is very different, people live in a huge dimension and coming from different cultures -> this is why this school is so complicated.
3. SHAFITA:
- related to the strict groups of friends of the Prophet;
- you can use interpretation in a conservative or a open-minded way. The more radical are coming from the HANABALITE school.
4. HANBALITE:
- they developed under the Ottoman empire;
- very strict;
- they created a new school of law.
