Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: What is the difference between the madhhab of Imam Ahmad (may Allah have mercy on him) and the madhhab of the Hanbalis? And what is the meaning of the phrase "the Imam's view"?
Answer:
The Hanbali madhhab is the madhhab of Imam Ahmad, but they may have positions they call "wujuh" (facets) which they derive from Imam Ahmad's words, though they are not explicit texts from Imam Ahmad, but rather derivations based on his principles, or among the facets of the madhhab. These are from the statements of the companions (scholars). As for a "riwayah" (narration), if one says "riwayah," it means it is from Imam Ahmad. Yes.
