| | The Fiqh of Imam al-Ghazali? |
 | | Additionally, the authorities of the Muslim biographers and historiographers like Imam al-Taj Subki and others who preceded or followed him mentioned Imam al-Ghazali as a Shafii, not as an independent mujtahid who left adherence to Imam Shafiis madhab (Allah be well pleased with him and show him mercy), and Allah knows best. |
 | | Also, the imams of our madhhab of the past and present still pass on the opinions and words of al-Ghazali and research into them as an imam of the madhab and whose words and opinions are a position within it, not as a separate mujtahid who has left following the Shafii madhab. |
 | | There is no disagreement that al-Ghazali, Allah have mercy on him, is not just an adherent of the Shafii school of fiqh, but one of the greatest imams of the madhab, with several well known works for which he is still known by the great scholars of biography and history. |
