Sypnosis
Taqlid is the act of following the rulings and opinions of a qualified Islamic scholar, known as a mujtahid. It is a fundamental concept in Islamic jurisprudence and is practiced by the majority of Muslims worldwide.
The principle of Taqlid is based on the recognition that not everyone has the necessary knowledge and expertise to interpret the primary sources of Islamic law, namely the Quran and the Sunnah (the teachings and practices of the Prophet Muhammad).
By following the guidance of a qualified Mujtahid, Muslims can ensure that their actions and beliefs are in accordance with the teachings of Islām. This is especially important for complex or ambiguous issues where individual interpretation may lead to errors or misunderstandings.
