Everything about Islam !

Questions: Hadith-Sunnah
1) What exactly constitutes a person to ‘blindly follow’ a madhab. I can see Muslims who just ‘blindly follow’ what their parents taught them, without checking it out from a reliable scholar or source. But what Does ‘blind following’ mean for me, An Engineering student who only has time to work 40 hours/week, And not time to learn arabic immediately, or to memorize Qur’an and hadith, and to learn the Usool Al-Fiqh in order to perform istimbat, meaning going to the positions of all the scholars and picking the soundest one (which means going to the arabic sources). How do I go about attaining, which aspects of each madhahib are wrong, and which are right. Please tell me what steps I need to take to verify every apects of my Ibadah, without following a madhab?

Assalamu alaikum Br Abdullah. I wonder whether you read the book on blind following, which we have available from our bookstore. It may answer part of your question. If you are too busy in you studies, etc, then you can still get some brief but good Islamic knowledge from publications such as Hudaa, al-Ibaanah, etc. Also, if we know your address, we may be able to put you in contact with some other brothers who would help so that you can together grow in knowledge, little bit at a time.
