Question

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?

Answer

Continue in the way that you have learnt.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
