Imaam Maalik never hesitated to change his rulings, even if he had already uttered them in public, if proof to the contrary came to him from a reliable source. One of his main students, Ibn Wahb, confirmed this attitude of the Imaam saying, "I once heard someone ask Maalik about washing between the toes during Wudoo, to which he replied, 'People do not have to do it.' I waited until most of the people left the study circle and informed him that there is a Hadeeth concerning it. He asked what it was, so I said, that al-Layth ibn Sa'd, Ibn Luhay'ah and 'Amr ibn Al-Haarith all related from al-Mustawrid Ibn Shidaad al-Qurashee that he saw Allaah's Messenger ﷺ rub between his toes with his little finger. Maalik said, 'Surely that is a good Hadeeth which I have never heard before.' Later when I heard people ask Maalik about washing between the toes, he used to insist that it must be washed."203 This narration is clear proof that Maalik's Madh-hab, like Abu Haneefah's, was that of the sound Hadeeth, even though we do not have a specific statement by him to that effect, as in the case of Abu Haneefah.
