	Maliki - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		This source, according to Malik, sometimes supersedes hadith, because the practice of the people of Medina was considered "living sunnah," in as much as the Prophet migrated there, lived there and died there, and most of his companions lived there during his life and after his death.
		Imam Malik was particularly scrupulous about authenticating his sources when he did appeal to them, however, and his comparatively small collection of ahadith, known as Al-Muwatta ("The Approved"), is highly regarded.
		Malik was once sentenced to a lashing by the caliph Abu Ja`far al-Mansur for narrating a hadith to the effect that a divorce obtained under coercion was invalid.

	Questions Pertaining to the Way of Imam Malik and his peception of the Amal of Madina
		Malik, however, does refer to "the madhhab of the people of Madina", and, to that extent, there is something that can be referred to loosely as the "madhhab of Madina" (as, indeed, one could also refer to a "madhhab of Kufa").
		Malik came to the conclusion (as far as I recall) that this amount was what you could get your hand cut off for, therefore he fixed the minimum for dowry at the nisab for theft.
		Malik is interested in the norm, not in his own personal opinion (although, of course, on some points where there is no norm, then he may well have to come up with some personal opinion as a man of knowledge).

		Malik said, "It is not halal for anyone, whether in ihram or not, to eat game which has been killed or sacrificed by some one in ihram, because, whether it was killed deliberately or by mistake, it was not done in a halal manner, and so eating it is not halal.

		A: In the school of Malik, the Imam gives tasleem to his right only by saying, 'As-Salaamu 'alaikum.' The one following is to give one salaam to his/her right, one in the direction of the Imam, and a third to the person on his/her left if there is someone there.
		As for limiting the additional recitation to one ayah, this is sufficient, although Imam Malik's view was that one should not say only part of a sura in one rak'ah.
		Malik disliked it merely because the husband doesn't have the right to prevent her from eating swine or from going to church.

		Al Imam al Shafi'i also criticized them for accepting the Mursal42 variety of Hadith, (though he himself made an exception in the case of Mursal Hadith related by Sa'id ibn al Musayyab,) and for imposing overly strict conditions for the acceptance of narrators as reliable (and the Hadith they related as authentic).
