The Mālikī (Arabic مالكي) madhhab is one of the four schools of Fiqh or religious law within Sunnī Islam. It is the third-largest of the four schools, followed by approximately 15% of Muslims, mostly in North Africa, West Africa, the United Arab Emirates, and some parts of Saudi Arabia. In the past, it was also followed in parts of Europe under Islamic rule, particularly Islamic Spain and the Emirate of Sicily. Madhhabs are rites, not sects. They constitute schools of jurisprudence. The other three schools of thought are Shāfi‘ī, Ḥanafī, and Ḥanbalī.
