Taqleed

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?

Q: I've been taught to follow the Quran and Sunnah. Many hadiths I've read say to follow Quran and Ahlul Bayt. Are those weak hadith or are there hadiths that say follow the Sunnah as well?

Q: People in my area follow different imams and they claim that their act is correct and perfect than the other. They also say to me that you follow one imam only, reply to them that I will follow what is there is in Quran and sunnah (hadith-sahih + sanan+ other books-with references) irrespective of following one imam and making sects (as said in Quran" Vo ati ullaha Vo ati ur rasula") and they don't fluctuate w.r.t time as it is followed by prophet in times. Am I correct in this case of following Quran and hadith(also includes imams +sahaba+mufti+fuqaha) or following a single imam?

Q: I would like to ask if it is okay to follow Imam Abu Hanifa in some aspects and Imam Shafi'ee in some aspect also? Or should we follow the rulings of just one Imam?

Q: If any one follows Imam Abu Hanifa and he knows hanafi fiqh very well. If he leave his fiqh with one reason for hurmat-e-musaaharah and follows another Imam, if he prays namaz and other worship according to another fiqh, his namaaz and worship are accepted or not?

Q: My question is regarding which madhab to follow? Growing up I was told that I am a Shafee. My mother is a Hanafi and I have only been trained in the Hanafi Madhab. We also live in South Africa which is a majority Hanafi country. Kindly advise on how should I proceed with my religious obligations?

Q: Is it necessary for a layman who has no knowledge of Shariah to follow one of the mazhabs such as Hanafi, Shaafi'ee, Hambali or Maaliki?

Q: I have heard that taqleed is only in 10% of Islam. Is it true? If yes then what is that 10% of Islam in which taqleed is required?

Q: I am a staunch Hanafi and believe that Taqleed of one mazhab is important as explained by our elders. I have a question in my mind and have been thinking about it lately. I hope you will guide me in this regard. As it is known,that there is difference of halaal and haram also among the four mazhabs. So does that mean that on the day of Qiyamat, will we be judged according to our mazhab? Say a Hanafi does an act which is sinful in Hanafi mazhab, he will be punished? And a Maliki will not be punished for that same act because it is permissible according to Maliki mazhab?

Q: The Salafi sect considers Ibn Taymiyyah as their leader.We, the Sunni Hanafi Deobandis obviously disagree with Ibn Taymiyyah on many issues. However, I have read that some of our elders considered Ibn Taymiyyah to be a Mujtahid in his own right. If I am not wrong, even Hazrat Thaanwi has written this. Is this correct that Ibn Taymiyyah was a Mujtahid and hence exempted from Taqleed of any of the four madhabs?
