Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: Some people who claim to be scholars say that the division of people into Ash'aris, Maturidis, and people of the Hadith is like the division of people into Shafi'is, Hanbalis, Hanafis, and Malikis.
Answer:
This is a liar. No, no, it is not like that. The Shafi'is, Hanbalis, and Malikis are scholars of the Book and the Sunnah. As for the scholars of logic and the scholars of kalam, they have nothing from the Shari'ah; it is only argumentation and saying "so-and-so said this" and "so-and-so said that." Yes.
