Mātūrīd’iyyah
Jahmiyyah
Jahmis were the followers of the Islamic
theologian Jahm bin Safwan who
associate himself with Al-Harith ibn Surayj.
He was an exponent of extreme
determinism according to which a man
acts only metaphorically in the same way
in which the sun acts or does something
when it sets.[62] This is the position
adopted by the Ash'ari school, which holds
that God's omnipotence is absolute and
perfect over all creation.
Qadariyyah
Qadariyyah is an originally derogatory term
designating early Islamic theologians who
asserted human beings are ontologically
free and have a perfect free will, whose
exercise justifies divine punishment and
absolving God of responsibility for evil in
the world.[63][64] Their doctrines were
adopted by the Mu'tazilis and rejected by
the Ash'aris.[63] The tension between free
will and God's omnipotence was later
reconciled by the Maturidi school of
theology, which asserted that God grants
human beings their agency, but can
remove or otherwise alter it at any time.
Muhakkima
The groups that were seceded from Ali's
army in the end of the Arbitration Incident
constituted the branch of Muhakkima
(Arabic: )محكمة. They are mainly divided
into two major sects called as Kharijites
and Ibadis.
Khawarij
Murji'ah
Murji'ah (Arabic: )المرجئةwas an early
Islamic school whose followers are known
in English as "Murjites" or "Murji'ites"
()المرجئون. The Murji'ah emerged as a
theological school in response to the
Kharijites on the early question about the
relationship between sin and apostasy
(rida). The Murji'ah believed that sin did
not affect a person's beliefs (iman) but
rather their piety (taqwa). Therefore, they
advocated the idea of "delayed
judgement", (irjaa). The Murji'ah maintain
that anyone who proclaims the bare
minimum of faith must be considered a
Muslim, and sin alone cannot cause
someone to become a disbeliever (kafir).
The Murjite opinion would eventually
dominate that of the Kharijites and
become the mainstream opinion in Sunni
Islam. The later schools of Sunni theology
adopted their stance while form more
developed theological schools and
concepts.

Karram’iyyah
Anthropomorphic-Anthropopathic
Karram’iyyah was founded by Abū ʿAbd
Allāh Muḥammad b. Karrām.[114] Ibn
Karram considered that God was a
substance and that He had a body (jism)
finite in certain directions when He comes
into contact with the Throne.[115][67][116]
Ahmadiyya
The Ahmadis' beliefs are more aligned
with the Sunni tradition, such as The Five
Pillars of Islam and The Six articles of
Islamic Faith. Likewise, Ahmadis accept
the Qur'an as their holy text, face the
Kaaba during prayer, accept the authority
of Hadiths (reported sayings of and stories
about Muhammad) and practice the
Sunnah (traditions) of Muhammad.[117]
However, Many Muslims consider
Ahmadis as heretics.[118][119][120][121]

described as a school or movement led by
a contingent of scholars (ulama), typically
Hanbalite or even Shafi'ite, which retained
influence, or at the very least a shared
sentiment and conception of piety, well
beyond the limited range of Hanbalite
communities. This body of scholars
continued to reject theology in favor of
strict textualism well after Ash'arism had
infiltrated the Sunni schools of law. It is for
these reasons that we must delineate the
existence of a distinctly traditionalist, anti-
theological movement, which defies strict
identification with any particular madhhab,
and therefore cannot be described as
Hanbalite."
