Your question is logical. But such a question has arisen in your mind due to not understanding. The main reason is that if we say that Hazrat Abu Bakr Siddiq should be taqlid. If Hazrat Abu Bakr Siddiq (RA) was taqlid, he had the Qur'an, the Hadith of the Prophet (SAW) and his own fatwa. But the fatwas of Hazrat Umar, Hazrat Uthman and Hazrat Ali were not with Hazrat Abu Bakr Siddiq? So if we follow his taqlid, we are deprived of the fatwa of Rashed in the other three caliphs. Similarly, if we talk about the taqleed of Umar, then Hazrat Umar has the Qur'an, Hadith, the fatwa of Hazrat Abu Bakr and his own fatwa. The rest do not have the fatwas of Uthman and Hazrat Ali. The same is true of Uthman's taqlid. If we talk about the taqleed of Hazrat Ali (RA), we will find the Qur'an, Hadith, Hazrat Abu Bakr (RA), Hazrat Umar (RA), Hazrat Uthman (RA) and Hazrat Ali (RA) own fatwas. But I do not get the fatwa of the rest of the Companions who were alive and died at that time. For this reason, the fatwas of the Qur'an, Hadith and Khulafa Rashedin are also found through the Taqleed of the Tabi'i Imam Abu Hanifa and the Tabi'i Imam Shafi'i, Malik and Ahmad bin Humble after the Companions. And we have to follow the Companions along with the Qur'an and Hadith. It is narrated on the authority of Hazrat Irbaaz bin Saria (may Allah be pleased with him). The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: Hold fast to my Sunnah. And hold on to Rashedin's circumcision in Khulafa after me. Bite them with your gums. Almuzamul Kabir Littabarani, Hadith No. 617, Sunan Ibn Majah, Hadith No. 42, Sunan Bayhaqi Kubra, Hadith No. 2012, Sunan Tirmizi, Hadith No. 150, Sunan Daremi, Hadith No. 189, Kanzul Ummal, Hadith No. 922, Mustadrake Hakeem, Hadith No. 329, Musnad Ahmad, Hadith No. 16142, Musnadul Bajjar, Hadith No. 4201, Musnadush Shamin, Hadith No. 94. Therefore, by following the taqlid of the four Imams, the masayel of the complete religion is being obtained. Which could not have been obtained by taqlid of only four caliphs. And we especially follow Imam Azam Abu Haneefah because the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said about Hazrat Ali (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) that Ibn Abbas (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: It is narrated on the authority of Ibn 'Abbas (may Allaah be pleased with him). The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: I am the city of knowledge. And Ali is the door. So whoever wants to enter the city, let him come through the door. (Mustadrake Hakeem, Hadith No. 4836, Almuzamul Kabir Littabari, Hadith No. 11071, Kanzul Ummal, Hadith No. 32790, Jameul Ahadis, Hadith No. 5842) Since we want to reach the city of knowledge through the door of the Prophet's knowledge. And the door of knowledge is lying in Kufa with the fatwas of Hazrat Ali (RA), Quran, Hadith, Hazrat Abu Bakr (RA), Hazrat Umar (RA) and Hazrat Uthman (RA). So I entered the city of knowledge of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) through the gates of all this knowledge by taqlid of Imam Azam, who was born in Kufa. For this reason we follow the example of Imam Azam Abu Hanifa. Since the treasure of all knowledge has reached him, he is blessed with the footsteps of Hazrat Ali and other Companions. Answer No. 2: In the case of taqleed, it is an important point that in the madhhab practice of the accepted mujtahids, all matters of the religion should come in a preserved form. If the solution of the religion of the mujtahid is not found in the Amalisutra, then the madhhab of the said mujtahid cannot be followed. Now has the madhhab of the four caliphs come to us in full? Is there a complete book on the school of the four Imams? If so, submit. We are ready to follow the madhhab of the four caliphs. Since the madhhabs of the four caliphs have not come down to us in a fully written form, we are from the Tabi'is, including the four caliphs, who have compiled the masalas of the perfect religion. And that madhhab has reached us in Amalisutra, we follow the religion of Allah Almighty in proportion to that madhhab. 3278482443
