  1. Taqlid

    Taqlid or taklid is an Arabic term in Islamic legal terminology. It literally means "to follow", "to imitate". In Islamic legal terminology it means to follow a mujtahid in religious laws and commandment as he has derived them, that is; following the decisions of a religious expert without necessarily examining the scriptural basis or reasoning of that decision, such as accepting and following the verdict of scholars of jurisprudence without demanding an explanation of the processes by which they arrive at it, hence adherence to one of the classical schools of jurisprudence. Taqlid may be contrasted with independent interpretation of legal sources by intellectual effort.
