Auzer do you believe that the best of generations are the sahabah and the salaf? as is stated int he prophetic hadith.

the rest of us Muslims certainly do and thus we base our understanding of the deen (i.e. fiqh) ont he understanding of the salaf. the madhabs are one way of preserving and following the opinions of the salaf.

out of curiosity do you think the opinions of javed ahmed ghamidi or any other modern "scholar" are preferable to the salaf when they contradict the salaf?

Well all these questions you are asking are suppose to be rhetorical questions , right?

But things are more complicated and detailed than these. Sahabas were definitely better than us ...But Qur'an supercedes everything and everyone. Sahabas probably had specific reasons for doing what they did? Sometimes , they probably had to make decisions that they would not have made under normal circumstances? There are so many details around this subject. So please specifically ask what you want to ask...
