In matters of [[Islamic jurisprudence]], the Zaydis follow Zayd ibn ’Ali's teachings which are documented in his book ''Majmu’ Al-Fiqh'' ({{lang-ar|مجموع الفِقه}}). Zaydi ''[[fiqh]]'' is similar to the [[Hanafi]] school of [[Sunni Islam|Sunni]] Islamic jurisprudence,<ref name="Sayyid 2005"/> as well as the [[Ibadi Islam|Ibadi]] school. [[Abu Hanifa]], the founder of the Hanafi school, was favorable and even donated towards the Zaydi cause.<ref>''The Princeton Encyclopedia of Islamic Political Thought'', Page 14, [[Gerhard Böwering]], Patricia Crone, Mahan Mirza - 2012</ref> Zaydis dismiss religious dissimulation ([[Taqiya|taqiyya]]).<ref name="p149">{{Cite book|title= Regional Surveys of the World: The Middle East and North Africa 2003|publisher= Europa Publications|year= 2003|isbn= 978-1-85743-132-2|location= London, England|page= 149}}</ref> Zaydism does not rely heavily on ''[[hadith]]'', but uses those that are consistent with the ''[[Qur'an]]'', and is open to ''hadith''. Some sources argue that Zaydism as simply a philosophy of political government that justifies the overthrow of unjust rulers and prioritizes those who are [[Banu Hashim]].<ref>{{cite web |author1=MAYSAA SHUJA AL-DEEN |title=Yemen’sYemen's War-torn Rivalries for Religious Education |url=https://carnegieendowment.org/2021/06/07/yemen-s-war-torn-rivalries-for-religious-education-pub-84651 |publisher=Carnegie Endowment for International Peace |access-date=7 June 2021}}</ref>

According to Zaydi traditions, ''Rāfiḍa'' referred to those [[Kufa|Kufans]] who deserted and refused to support [[Zayd ibn Ali]], who had a favourable view of the first two [[Rashidun Caliphate|Rashidun Caliphs]].<ref>{{cite book|author1=Ahmad Kazemi Moussavi|author2=Karim Douglas Crow|title=Facing One Qiblah: Legal and Doctrinal Aspects of Sunni and Shi'ah Muslims|date=2005|publisher=Pustaka Nasional Pte Ltd |isbn=9789971775520|page=186}}</ref><ref>{{cite book|author1=Najam Haider|title=The Origins of the Shī'a: Identity, Ritual, and Sacred Space in Eighth-Century Kūfa|date=26 Sep 2011 |publisher=Cambridge University Press|isbn=9781139503310|pages=196–7}}</ref><ref>{{cite book |last1=Najībābādī|first1=Akbar|title=History of Islam Volume 2|publisher=[[Darussalam Publishers]]
