I am following Hanafi Madhhab; may I follow any act as per Sahi Hadith? Even Hanafi maslak not follow or not believe that? May I still continue as a Hanafi? Please give answer in the light of Quran and hadith.

(Fatwa: 1665/1665/M=1432)
You are Hanafi, so you should keep on practicing as per the Hanafi Fiqh. Hanafi maslak is in accordance with the Quran and hadith. Do not become mujtahid, you shall divert from right path due to lack of Ijtehad and knowledge and ultimately land yourself in following carnal desires that is worst in Shariah.
