INTRODUCTION<br />

IN THE NAME OF ALLAH THE BENEFICENT THE MERCIFUL<br />

The meaning of Taqleed in terminology is to act upon the opinion of an Imam<br />

without knowing the evidence. A person singles out a particular Imam to follow<br />

and he accepts all of his opinions and Ijtihaad as religion whether his opinions or<br />

Ijtihaad is supported by the Holy Quran and the Noble Hadeeth or not.<br />

The word Taqleed is a derivative of Qalaadah. The linguistic meaning of Qalaadah is<br />

the collar that a dog wears around its neck. The one who wears this collar around<br />

his neck is termed as the Muqalladah.<br />

The Muqallid places the leash around his own neck and goes in whichever direction<br />

his master takes him.<br />

Know that surely the result of Taqleed is to accept the words of another without any<br />

evidence or arguments.<br />

Blind emulation is what this is all about.<br />
