I have embraced Islam. Which Math-hab should I follow?

Answer

All Four Math-habs are the Haqq. It is improper to say that one Math-hab is better than the other. A person who has no Math-hab should adopt the Math-hab whose teachings are readily available to him. It is of no benefit to adopt a Math-hab and remain ignorant about the teachings. You will then not know how to follow the Deen correctly. If you have adequate knowledge of the rules pertaining to Tahaarat, Salaat, Saum, etc. for your daily needs in terms of the Maaliki Math-hab, then you should remain a Maaliki. There is extremely little literature in English in terms of the Maaliki Math-hab, and there is no Maaliki Ulama of the Haqq versed in English with whom you could communicate. This is your big problem if you choose to remain a Maaliki. However, you say that you had studied for some time under a Maaliki Ustaadh and have sufficient Maaliki kutub to guide you. If this is so, then you may continue with the Maaliki Math-hab.
