The Hanafi School is one of the four major Sunni Islamic schools of jurisprudence. Founded by the scholar Abu Hanifa in the 8th century, it emphasizes reason and opinion in interpreting Islamic law. This school is known for its flexibility and adaptability, allowing for a variety of interpretations based on context. Hanafi jurisprudence covers various aspects of life, including rituals, ethics, and social issues. It is widely practiced in regions such as South Asia, Turkey, and parts of the Middle East. The school’s teachings are compiled in several texts, with the most notable being the Al-Hidayah and Fath al-Qadir.
