To the Shabab who have believed in Islaam as an intellectual  Aqeedah from which a system emanates... And who have sought to  be enlightened by its guidance and have made a firm determination to  bring it about within the reality of life... To the generation of  awakening... The generation of revival... The generation of Al Jihaad... This is for you to assist you in making the Usool firmly and deeply  rooted, the thoughts deeper and also as a motivation towards  Ijtihaad....

Al-Waadih Fee Usool ul-Fiqh

The term "Taqlid" in Islamic law refers to the unquestioning acceptance of the legal decisions of another without knowing the basis for those decisions[4]. It involves conforming to the teachings and rulings of a qualified scholar or mujtahid[9]. Here are some key points to understand about Taqlid:  Definition: Taqlid linguistically means "placing the matter in the neck with an encompassment of it" and metaphorically refers to entrusting or delegating a matter to someone, as if it is tied to their neck[0]. In the context of Islamic law, it denotes the conformity of one person (muqallid) to the teachings and rulings of a qualified scholar (mujtahid)[4]. Differing Views: The understanding and usage of Taqlid vary between different Islamic schools of thought. In Sunni Islam, Taqlid is seen as the unjustified conformity of one person to the teachings of another[4]. However, in Shia Islam, Taqlid designates the general conformity of non-mujtahid individuals to the teachings of a qualified mujtahid[4]. Historical Development: In the early period of Islamic jurisprudence, independent interpretation (ijtihad) was practiced by great legal scholars who derived legal opinions from the Qur'an and Hadith[4]. However, as time passed and legal schools formed around prominent scholars, it came to be widely believed that all important legal questions had been addressed, leading to the concept of Taqlid[4]. This is often referred to as the "closing of the gates of ijtihad"[4]. Contemporary Usage: In contemporary usage, especially in the context of Islamic reformism, Taqlid is sometimes portrayed in a negative light and translated as "blind imitation"[4]. This criticism is rooted in the perception that Taqlid can restrict independent intellectual effort (ijtihad) and lead to uncritical acceptance of traditional interpretations by the religious establishment[4]. Role of Mujtahid: The concept of Taqlid assumes the presence of qualified scholars or mujtahids who possess deep knowledge of Islamic jurisprudence and can derive legal rulings from the source materials of Islamic law[4]. These scholars are considered uniquely qualified to interpret the texts and their rulings are considered authoritative for the Muslim community
