Thank you for not returning my salam.

You said 'most based on hadith.' The question is, of what basis is this statement? If you can name a single issue in which the Hanafi position is based on no hadith whatsoever, then I will be very surprised at it; and if you cannot, then to 'rank' the madhabs based on their 'basis in hadith' is a nonsensical thing to do.

You're welcome.

I didn't say the madhab is not based on Hadeeth, I said the Hanbalis are closer to the hadeeth, at the same time If you want to be any madhab I don't care.
