Question:
Is it permissible for a Muslim to say, "I follow a specific school of jurisprudence in the matter of prayer"?

Answer:
Yes, if you are unable to determine the stronger position, identify the stronger position, or know the evidence, then following a scholar without knowing his evidence within the four schools of jurisprudence is necessary.
