A strong influence on Ibn Taymiyya was the founder of the Hanbali school of Islamic jurisprudence, Ahmad ibn Hanbal.{{sfn|Haque|1982|p=7}} Ibn Taymiyya was trained in this school and he had studied Ibn Hanbal's [[Musnad Ahmad ibn Hanbal|Musnad]] in great detail, having studied it over multiple times.<ref>{{cite book|title=Fawat al-Wafayat|last=Al-Kutubi|first=Shakir |year=1881 |page=35}}</ref> Though he spent much of his life following this school, in the end he renounced [[taqlid]] (blind following).{{sfn|Haque|1982|p=8}}
 
His work was most influenced by the sayings and actions of the [[Salaf]] (first 3three generationgenerations of Muslims) and this showed in his work where he would give preference to the Salaf over his contemporaries.{{sfn|Haque|1982|p=7}} The modern [[Salafi movement]] derives its name from this school of thought.{{sfn|Haque|1982|p=7}}
