Hopping from one Mazhab to another
Question
I normally follow the hanafi madhab however I wish to follow the shafii madhab with regards to wudu as i read that the shafii madhab does not consider wudu broken if blood or pus or other liquids flow from anywhere but the front and back passage. I am in a difficult situation due to blood/liquid flow and would like to follow the shafii ruling. Is this permissible? Also if I follow the shafii madhab with regards to wudu, must I follow it with regards to prayer and ghusl as well? If so, what are the obligations of prayer according to the shafii madhab?
Answer
This is not permissible. You should remain committed to your mazhab.
