The Ruling on Mocking Books of Jurisprudence and Followers of Schools of Thought

Question:
Some Islamic currents mock books of jurisprudence, disparage jurists, and turn people away from them. What is the position regarding these people?

Answer:
He calls people to Allah, urging them to fear Allah and to be punished by Allah. So, one does not mock the books of jurists, nor does he ridicule them, nor does he turn people away from them. However, he turns people away from fanaticism and blind following. He encourages people to seek knowledge based on the evidence of the Shari'ah, and to beware of blind following and fanaticism. Books of jurisprudence are diverse and varied; some mention the evidence and care for the evidence, containing the words of scholars, while others do not care for that. The student of knowledge is encouraged to look to the books that care for the evidence, mention the proofs, and mention scholarly consensus and disagreement, so that the believer may benefit from them, to beware of fanaticism and blind following, and so on.
As for mockery, it has no place. But people are guided to the fact that it is obligatory to care for the evidence of the Shari'ah, and to beware of fanaticism and blind following, from which Allah and His Messenger have warned. Yes.
