Sunnah Categorisation
Assalamualaikum,
I would appreciate if the below can be clarified.
1) The various categories of sunnah as explained in “Meezan”, are they all equal in their status in the Deen. For example eating pig and eating with left hand are equal transgression?
2)If the list of Sunnah (as provided in Meezan) are not equal in status then what principles (if any) have been used for sunnah categorisation.
3) What is Ghamidi Sahib view regarding fiqh categorisation of (Farz, wajib, sunnah mokada, sunnah ghair mokada, mustahab, etc. etc. ).
4)Can the fiqh categorisation in point 3 above be applied to the list of Sunnah as listed in Meezan.
Any reference to written work on the above would be very helpful.
Thank you and regards,
Anwar

1. They are not equal in their status. for example the category of Customs and Etiquette are not Farz or wajib.
2. Every injunction is qaulified according to its placement in Deen in the light of their description in Quran and its understanding which comes along with Sunnah
3. Ghamidi saheb does not adopt Fiqhi terminology in describing Shariah. Farz he aceepts, The rest of the terms are not separate categories, the things described under these are Nafl with Ghamidi saheb with different emphasis extracting from the acts of the Holy Prophet (PBUH).
4. Ghamidi saheb does not adopt them.
No work on this topic is in my knowledge.
