This Tareeqah was first manifested by Al-Imaam Ash-Shaafi’iy (Muhammad Bin Idrees Ash-Shaafi’iy) who passed away in the year 204 AH in Egypt. That was in his ‘Risaalah’ in Usool and it happened without him having any connection to the Mutakallimoon although he agreed with them in respect to utilising the intellectual (‘Aqliy) judgement to establish the Qawaa’id (principles) that he provided for Usool ul-Fiqh.
