Salam alykum ww,
growing up we were just muslims, that was it, i wasnt a sunni or shia or hanafi or maliki etc etc etc....just muslim i.e;submit my will and life for worship Allah....so fastfoward 23 years and im trying to gain more knowledge about my faith and improve my deen for the sake of Allah and im hitting a brick wall......i go to register for classes and classes are divided based on what "school of thought" you follow???uhn (i dont know if im hanafi or this or that etc....im just a muslim..???)....I almost want to cry, im so fustrated. Im praying for guidiance. I just want to seek knowledeg, i want to follow whats in the holy quran and the sunnah of our prohphet SAW and find out like why and when each aya was revealed,tafsir of the Quran and the transmission and naration of adeeth...etc....i think this will give me more clarity....
during the time of the prophet SAW there were no schools etc......and in the Quran its says our religion was perfected for us...it was all there, all we needed to do was follow the Quran and the way of our phrophet SAW.....so why did the uluma need to have schools...???? isnt everything we need already there for us.....Now I have a yearning to know exactly the history of our religion how we know have diffrernt school of thoughts with "so called" minute diffrences....why its sooo easy to commit bidah and we dont even know it......
at the end of the day if we are all following the Quran and the prophet SAW, shouldnt it all be the same....Im trying not to lose my mind here, were do i go to find such knowledge.......
sorry im ranting now....
