How the 4 Madhabs Took Over the Muslim World.

Why do most Muslims in Pakistan follow the Hanafi madhab, while Muslims in Morocco follow the Maliki madhab and those in Indonesia mostly follow the Shafi'i madhab? The answer goes back centuries, to the spread of Islamic scholarship, the journeys of students, the rise of powerful empires, and the trade routes that connected distant parts of the Muslim world. In this video, we explore the history of the four Sunni madhabs: Hanafi, Maliki, Shafi'i, and Hanbali. We'll look at how the teachings of the four great imams spread across different regions, how rulers and scholars influenced which madhab became dominant, and why the Islamic world gradually developed the religious landscape we see today. From the Abbasids and Ottomans to Muslim scholars travelling across the Indian Ocean, the story of the four madhabs is about much more than four schools of Islamic jurisprudence. It's a story of knowledge, history, and how generations of Muslims preserved and passed on their understanding of Islam. And despite their differences in Islamic law, the four madhabs are connected by a shared scholarly tradition, with generations of scholars learning from one another. So how did four schools of thought that began in the same early Islamic world become so influential across different countries? Let's find out.
