The group emerged in 11th century A.H. (17th century). They disallowed the method of [[ijtihad]] and [[usul al-fiqh]] for the deduction of shari'a laws. They were opposed to [[Usulis|Usuli jurisprudents]] (or fuqaha) who require the method of ijtihad and Usul al-Fiqh for the deduction of shari'a laws. | ||
The opposition between Imamiyya Akhbaris and Usulis was already there before the 11th/17th century, though in a non-official and implicit fashion.

In the second half of the 20th century, more research by European scholars has been produced concerning Akhbaris. In 1958, Scarcia presented a detailed account of the disputes between Akhbaris and Usulis in his "Intorno alle controversie tra 'Ahbari' e 'Usuli' presso gli Imamiti di Persia" (On controversies between Akhbaris and Usulis of Iranian Imamiyya). Then, [[Madelung]] introduced Akhbaris in a 1980 article in "The Encyclopedia of Islam". Moreover, [[Kohlberg]] wrote a paper under "Akhbaris" in 1985. Also, Robert Gleave composed several articles and one book in this regard. | In the second half of the 20th century, more research by European scholars has been produced concerning Akhbaris.
