Followers of the imam school of hanbali

First, the nash (the Qur'an and the Sunnah). If he finds the texts, he will have the Koran and Sunnah and not turn to other sources. Secondly, the fatwa of friends known to nobody is against it.

Third, if the companions are different opinions, he will choose opinions judged more in accordance with the Qur'an and the Sunnah of the Prophet. If it turns out that the opinion is not clear in accordance with the Qur'an and Sunnah, then he will not set one of them, but take silence or narrate both.

Fourth, take the hadith mursal (hadith which in sanadnya not mentioned its name perawinya), and hadith daif (weak hadith, but not 'maudu', or weak hadith). In this case, hadith dhaif takes precedence over qias. And the fifth is qias, or analogy. Qias are used when no legal basis is found from the above four sources.
