Solution

The correct options are
A Hanafi
B Shafi'i
Shias are Muslims who consider prophet Muhammed's son-in-law, Ali, to be the legitimate leader of the Muslims. Sunnis accept authority of the Khalifas (early leaders of the community) and their successors. Hanafi and Shafi'i are the two schools of law in Islam.
