Shah Wali Allah's Attempt to Reconcile the Schools of Fiqh.

Controversies among ahl al-hadith and Hanafis had assumed serious proportions by the time of Wali Allah. Reconciliation of legal schools was a practical, rather than a merely theoretical problem. From the very beginning Wali Allah had ahl al-hadith proclivities and from that standpoint he bitterly denounced Hanafis for deviating from sunnah. At this stage his basic aim was revival of pristine Shari'ah and reform of Hanafi legal doctrines by making them conform to sunnah.
