Hopping from one Mazhab to another

Submitted by user2 on Mon, 2017-11-13 08:00

Q: I normally follow the hanafi madhab however I wish to follow the shafii madhab with regards to wudu as i read that the shafii madhab does not consider wudu broken if blood or pus or other liquids flow from anywhere but the front and back passage. I am in a difficult situation due to blood/liquid flow and would like to follow the shafii ruling. Is this permissible? Also if I follow the shafii madhab with regards to wudu, must I follow it with regards to prayer and ghusl as well? If so, what are the obligations of prayer according to the shafii madhab?

A: This is not permissible. You should remain committed to your mazhab.
