I came across this on a Salafi/Wahhabi forum:

Is this correct?

No reference given to the statement of Mulla Ali Qari (RA) so no point in addressing the matter.

The actual position of Imam Ibnul-Hummam (RA) is this:

http://www.euro-sunni.com/en/Shariah...d-history.html

Imam Ibn al-Hummam, author of many unique works in Jurisprudence and Doctrine records the view of the Hanafi scholars on Taqlid of a single Mujtahid in the commentary of Hidayah Fath al-Qadir:

(As for the layman) it is obligatory for him (Al-wajib alayh) to do Taqlid of a single Mujtahid….The jurists have stated that the one who switches from one Madhab to another by his Ijtihad and evidence is sinful deserving of being punished. Thus one who does so without Ijtihad and evidence is even more deserving. (vol.6 p.360)

Please read the entire article and the rest is refuted easily.
