al-Slamu Aleykum,

It's not obligatory that he follows a Madhab, there's no need to go out of your way to convince him that he should although it would be better if he did join a Madhab but not obligatory.

We are living in such a time where theres an upsurge in 'new thinking' and if one doesn't adopt a Madh-hab - especially if he / she is new to Islam then such a person will get dragged into this mindest - he may have already been dragged into it as he thinks there is no purdah (Hijab).

A person who doesn't follow a set of Usools will start making his own up - they will mix and match what their heart desires - they may even end up becoming like the Munkiroon al-Hadith, as some have - especially if someone is new to practicing Islam.

No doubt we are living in such a time where this new phenomenon is taking mold - infact it already has!! Rulings change due to the envoironment. Though not Fardh to adopt a Madh-hab, but it would be Wajib (Due to External Factors).
