As’salaamualaikum Mufti Saheb
.
I am a follower of the Hanafi madhab.
I would like to enquire about the following:
Why do the arab ulema not recognise Imam Abu Hanifa and the Hanafi madhab. If they follow the Hambali or Maliki madhab, did not Imam Ahmed bin Hambal and Imam Malik recognize Imam Abu Hanifa and the Hanafi madhab?
