Can a Muslim following the Hanafi madhab, do Rafa ul Yadain, fold his hands on chest in prayer, and pray Witr with two salams method? I am afraid because i know that a person should stick to his particular madhab. But i have read and heard that these practices i mentioned are more authentic and i am afraid that leaving them would lead to leaving a sunnah or to sin.

ANSWER:

No problem.. it is not obligatory to stick to the practices of a particular madhab, especially when there is an established sunnah for the things mentioned.

Sheikh my question is that is it permissible to ask for solutions from a mufti or aalim who strictly follows and defends his madhab and is not ready to accept any other thought even if it is closer to quran and Sunday.

Is the reason that hanafi madhab has some weak hadith that the ahadith werent compiled yet completely or something else?
