Question
If there are no more Mujtahideen, then what is the meaning of the Hadith that Allah Ta'ala will send to this Ummah every 100 years, a man who will teach them their Deen.
Answer
When you lack intelligence to understand even such a simple, well-known and well-expounded Hadith, how then can you comprehend issues of an intricate nature? The Hadith refers to Mujaddideen (Revivers), not to Mujtahideen. Thus, all Mujaddids were Muqallideen of the Math-habs.
