Take out Deobandi scholarship and you will find that the same ambiguity exists amongst the Hanafi scholars.

Assalamu aliakum brother,

I don't believe so. The Arabs and the Indians both primarily rely upon Ibn Abideen.

Can you please quote me one major example. Even regarding the beard the Arabs/SunniPath etc. admit that fist is wajib but they are making an outside the fiqh exception.

With regards to things like Asr time and and some other issues there are clearly two (or maybe more) distinct choices and all scholars believe in these distinct valid opinions.

The only issue that comes to my mind is pants below the ankle.

Even if you see Ascent to Felicity it is almost exactly in agreement with Indian books in 99% of the issues.

In general the Hanafi and Shafi fiqhs have well defined mu'tamad opinions. If scholars are quoting a non-mu'tamad opinion then they know they are quoting a non-mu'tamad opinion. In fact finding the mu'tamad opinion in the Shafi' fiqh is more easy and more easily ascertained compared to the Hanafi fiqh.
