The words Deen and Madhab are entirely different from each other
with regard to their underlying concepts. Although in our part of the
world we generally refer to Islam as Madhab (religion), yet what is
interesting indeed is the fact that the word Madhab has never once
been used in the entire treasury of the Quranic text and Ahadeeth
literature! Instead, the word that has almost always been used for
Islam in the original sources is Deen.
