[2] The Stance of the Salaf Towards Ahlul Bidah

Abu Qilaabah said: “Neither sit with the people of desires (i.e. people of bidah) nor argue with them, for indeed I do not feel secure that they will plunge you in their misguidance, or bewilder you regarding what (i.e. the truth) you already know.”

[Al-Ibaanah369]

 

 

 

Salaam bin Abee Mutee said: A man from the people of bidah said to Ayyoub (i.e. Ayyoob As-Sakhtiyaanee): ‘O Abu- Bakr! Can I ask you about a word? [He (i.e. Salaam)] said: “So I saw him (i.e. Ayyoub) gesturing with his hand, whilst saying: ”’Not even half a word; not even half a word!”

[Al-Ibaanah of Ibn Battah 482]

[1] The Stance of the Salaf Towards Ahlul Bidah

Ibn ‘Abbaas (radiyallaahu-anhumaa) said:

“Do not sit with the people of desires (i.e. people of bidah), for indeed their gatherings cause sickness in the hearts.”

[Al-Ibaanah 371]

Imaam Ahmad (rahimahullaah) said:

”It is neither permissible for anyone to sit with ahlul bidah nor mix with them, nor socialize with them.”

The Nabahaani khaarijite cult [Hizb Tahrir]—Reminder to Our Noble Brothers @Masjid Al-Furqaan

بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ

I remind myself and all the brothers at [Masjid Al-Furqaan (Stoke-on-Trent)] of the following:

Al-Hasan (al-Basree) said: ‘The wise man does not argue or seek to overcome with stratagem rather he propagates his wisdom.  If it is accepted he praises Allah and if it is rejected he praises Allah'[1]

Sheikh Saaleh Al-Fawzaan (may Allaah preserve him) commented on the above statement saying: Concerning the statement of Imaam Barbahaaree that Hasan al-Basree said: ‘The wise man does not argue or seek to overcome with stratagem….’

Al-Hasan Al-Basree: He is Al-Hasan Ibnu Abil Hasan Al-Basree the well known Imaam from amongst the Taa’bi’een; he said:

‘The wise man’, that is the one who possesses wisdom, and wisdom is to place something in its (proper) place.  Likewise, the wise one means the one with understanding.   Therefore, two meanings are intended by Al-Hakeem (the wise one).  The first intended meaning is one who places the affairs in their (proper) place.  And it is also intended to mean the one who has understanding, because wisdom is understanding and knowledge of what is intended by Allah and His Messenger (i.e. the understanding of the Book of Allah, the Sunnah of His Messenger and the path of the Salaf).

He (i.e. the wise one) ‘does not argue’.  He does not debate (with) a fruitless debate that is devoid of benefit.

‘And he (i.e. the wise one) does not seek to overcome with stratagem’.  He does not seek to overcome the people of falsehood with stratagem and to make them submit.  ‘His wisdom’, that is he propagates his knowledge and if accepted he praises Allah.  This is what is sought after.  And if it (i.e. his knowledge/wisdom) is not accepted, he is absolved of his responsibility and the proof is conveyed.

And concerning the statement, ‘He (i.e. the wise one) praises Allah’; because he established and conveyed the proof, and fulfilled that which is required of him, and the guiding of the hearts is in the hands of Allah (Glorified And Exalted Be He).

 

 The Khawaarij of old and those who carry their ideology today

The Khawaarij were the first people to declare sinful Muslims to be disbelievers and they declare lawful rebellion against Muslim Rulers.  The khawaarij of old were called ‘Al-Harooriyyah’ because they began their bidah of rebellion against the Muslim rulers at a place called Haroora in Koofah.  They were also called ‘Ahlu An-Nahrawaan’ (The people of Nahrawaan) because Ali (radiyallaahu-anhu) fought them at that place.  They are divided into different groupings: The Ibaadiyyah-followers of Abdullaah Bin Ibaad; the Al-Azaariqah-the followers of Naafi Bin Azraq and others. [for further details see: Sharh Hadeethu Jibreel of Shaikhul Islaam Ibn Taymiyyah: page: 319]

Please brothers! Ignore those foolish ring leaders of the Nabahaani cult.  The Salafi brothers in Stoke are well aware of the extreme foolishness and ignorance of this cult.  They are only looking for someone to give them publicity.  In-Shaa-Allaah…the  details in following threads will be enough as an insight into the deviation and foolishness of these deviated people..

See following articles:

[2] http://www.salafitalk.net/st/viewmessages.cfm?Forum=8&Topic=11168

[3] http://www.thenoblequran.com/sps/sp.cfm?subsecID=GRV03&articleID=GRV030004&articlePages=1

 

Finally: Likewise, it is well-known to the Salafiyyoon in Stoke, Manchester and Birmingham that those ring leaders of hizb tahrir in [Stoke and else –where] are callers to bidah, and as we all know the callers to bidah are not given any consideration.  Imaam al-Awzaa’ee said: ”Do not give a person of Innovation a chance to debate…”

Brothers: If it is the case that the ring leaders of this splinter of group of the khawaarij [Hizb Tahrir] have rejected the advises of the Imams of the Sunnah in this Era [i.e. Imaam Abdul Azeez Bin Baaz, Imaam Muhammad Ibn Saaleh Al-Uthaymeen, Imaam Naasiruddeen Al-Albaani) and their brothers amongst the scholars of Ahlus Sunnah, such as the likes of [Shaikh Rabee, Shaikh Fawzaan, Shaikh Abdul Azeez Aala Shaikh, Shaikh Luhaydaan, Shaikh Ghidiyaan and others], then who else will they listen to?!  Therefore, we remind the brothers not to entertain the foolishness of this cult; rather the evidences against them will be posted on this website because the Salafi Students of knowledge in the UK have already transmitted the refutations of the scholars against them.  May Allaah guide the members of this cult or protect us from their bidah.

What is [الوسطية] [Al-Wasatiyyah (The Middle Path)?

بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ

Sheikh Muhammad Bin Saalim Baazmool (may Allaah preserve him) stated:

It is widely known with some of the people, that Al [ٱلۡوُسۡطَ] is only that which occupies the middle position between two things, and they do not call to attention the other meaning of this word, as mentioned in the Magnificent Qur’aan and the Prophetic Sunnah. [ٱلۡوُسۡطَ ]  in the Islamic legislation is that which is ‘Superior.’ [Allaah (The Most High)] said: said:

 

حَـٰفِظُواْ عَلَى ٱلصَّلَوَٲتِ وَٱلصَّلَوٰةِ ٱلۡوُسۡطَىٰ

”Guard strictly (five obligatory) As-Salawaat (the prayers) especially the Salatul Wustaa (the Asr prayer)” [2:238]

[ٱلۡوُسۡطَىٰ]; meaning: the best, more excellent etc.

And [Allaah (The Most High)] said:

مِنۡ أَوۡسَطِ مَا تُطۡعِمُونَ أَهۡلِيكُمۡ

[مِنۡ أَوۡسَطِ ] [On the scale] of the average of that which you feed your own families” [5:89]

That is: The best and most just.

And [Allaah (The Most High)] said:

وَكَذَٲلِكَ جَعَلۡنَـٰكُمۡ أُمَّةً۬ وَسَطً۬ا

”Thus We have made you [أُمَّةً۬ وَسَطً۬ا] [2:143]

That is: the best and most upright.

 

The intent behind all this is to understand that [الوسطية] in the context of the Religion is that which is ‘best’ and the ‘Justice of the Religion’—(and it is) to follow that which Allaah (The Mighty and Magestic) has commanded and keep away and refrain from that which He has forbidden.  As for the explanation of [الوسطية] in the religious context with a meaning other than this meaning; then it is (something founded upon a foundation) ready to crumble down. It is a mirage which the thirsty one considers water (i.e. an illusion). [Source: Al Haqeeqatus Shar-iyyah Fee Tafseeril Qur’aanil Adheem Was-Sunnatin Nabawiyyati page: 186]

 

Rebellion against the Rulers–O Muslims! Ponder Upon This Statement of Imaam Ibnul Qayyim

In The Name of Allaah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy

Ibn al-Qayyim (rahimahullaah) stated:

He [i.e. the Prophet (sallallaahu ‘alayhi-wasallam)] legislated for his Ummah the obligation of disapproving evil, in order that by disapproving it, the good beloved to Allaah and His Messenger is reached. And if disapproving evil will necessitate what is eviler and more hateful to Allaah and His Messenger, then it is not permitted to disapprove of it, even if Allaah hates it and loathes those who carry out (such evil). And this is similar to the disapproval towards the kings and those in charge of the affairs—by rebelling against them; for indeed it is the foundation of every evil and trial till the end of time.

And indeed the Sahaabah sought the permission of Allaah’s Messenger (sallallaahu alayhi wasallam) to kill those rulers who delay the prayer from its prescribed time, and they said: ‘’Should we not kill them?’’”So he (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) said: “’’No; as long as they establish the prayer.’’”He (sallal-laahu-alayhi-sallam) said: “Whoever sees something from his ruler which he hates, then let him exercise patience and not remove the hand of obedience to the ruler.’’”

And whoever ponders upon the greatest and smallest trials that have taken its toll on Islaam, he/she will observe that (such trials occur) as a result of neglecting this principle and (due to) the absence of exercising patience in [the face of] evil.  So he (i.e. the person) seeks to stop it and what is of greater evil emanates from it.

And indeed, Allaah’s Messenger (sallallaahu-alayhi- wasallam) saw the gravest evils in Makkah and he was unable to stop them; rather when Allaah (enabled the Muslims to) conquer Makkah and it became an Islamic Land,  he (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) was determined to alter the Ka’bah and rebuild it based on the foundations it was built upon by Ibraaheem (alayhis-salaam).  However, he refrained from (it) even though he had the ability to do so, fearing that that which is greater (disadvantage) will ensue due to the Quraish not been able to bear it; because they were new  converts to Islaam and had abandoned disbelief not so long. And because of this (reason), he (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) did not permit disapproval towards the rulers by way of using one’s hand (i.e. through fighting) due to what may result from it—affairs of greater (evil) that may come about thereafter.

An Explanation of the Sayings of The Biased-Partisans [Spubs.com]

In The Name of Allaah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy

Indeed, we did emphasise the need to visit this website [www.salafipublications.com]; because there are many reoccurring affairs of fitan, which were previously dealt with by the students at Maktabah Salafiyyah from the works of the scholars.

[الحمد لله]….there are many Maraakiz of Salafiyyah in the West—free from the falsehood of the followers of hajoori and halabi—but it is also important that we are well aware of evil plots, devilish insinuations and false accusations of those carrying the views of the Qutubis, Sorooris and Ikhwaanis.

Recently we have seen some of the ignorant liars, slanderers and allies of the innovators–such as the likes of Abu Eesa Niamatullaah—attempting to slander the Salafiyyoon in order to justify his deviated and destructive methodology.  Therefore, it is important that the young Salafi brothers and sisters are well aware of some of those affairs through which the likes of Abu Eesa and others seek to confound truth with falsehood, and in order to promote their deviated views as alternatives to the sound Manhaj positions of the Ulama of Ahlus Sunnah Wal-Jamaa-ah.  The following article is very important indeed and may Allaah grant us Tawfeeq to understand the issues….Aameen.

We ask Allaah to reward and preserve the Ulamaa of Ahlus Sunnah.  We ask Allaah to preserve and reward the students at Maktabah Salafiyyah, and may Allaah grant them the Tawfeeq to carry on defending this blessed Manhajus Salafi in the West.   Aameen.

[2] What type of Mujaddid was Sayyid Qutb?!


Allaamah Rabee Bin Haadi Al-Madkhalee (may Allaah preserve him) stated:

 

Indeed the fitna of this man and those with him is the fitna of this era. It is the severest fitna in this era because it confounds (truth with falsehood through the true) Salafi methodology.  Beware of them O brothers; they have affairs of deception, adulteration, plotting and trickery, which are not known except to Allaah. They preoccupy themselves mostly with (setting up) traps for the Salafi youth.  They neither give concern to inviting the Christians and Jews nor the rawaafid (shiites) and the soofees to the true methodology; and why is this (the case)? Because the one who is deprived of (something) cannot give it (to others).

 

So (what) they mostly preoccupy themselves with is to corrupt the righteous people and those whom Allaah has guided to the way of the Lord of the Worlds.  Most of (what) they preoccupy themselves with at present in the world is to set traps for the Salafi youth, and they wear a counterfeit Salafi gown for it; so that they are able to tear it apart and distance it from this (true) methodology.

 

They utilize various ways to defame the scholars of this (true) methodology and to defame this methodology itself–and Allaah’s Protection is sought! And they brandish the methodology of Sayyid Qutb even though within it there is insult to the prophets; and even though within it there is takfeer against some of the Sahaabah; and even though within it there is takfeer against the ummah…. (Even though within it there are) creeds of misguidance—the creed of hulool, wahdatul wujood, the nullification of Allaah’s Attributes and the (innovated speech that the) Qur’aan is created.  All these affairs (of misguidance committed by Sayyid Qutb)–in their view–does not negate revival; for according to them he is a Mujaddid (reviver)!!
We say: Yes, he is a Mujaddid; but he is a Mujaddid of every major bidah, (such as) the school of thought of the khawaarij, the rawaafid (shiites), the murjia, the jabariyyah and the soofiyyah. He revived all of them; and between us (Salafis) and them (i.e. the followers of Sayyid Qutb) are the books of Sayyid Qutb and his writings (as a witness).

According to them this is the Mujaddid and an Imaam for whose sake they (establish) alliances (with those who agree with them) and enmity (towards those who oppose them). So what calamity upon Islaam can be more severe than this calamity?

The khawaarij of old and the contemporary khawaarij–Every people have inheritors and every land has a cultivator

Al-Allaamah Rabee Bin Haadi Al-Madkhali (may Allaah preserve him) stated:

The khawaarij used to oppose Ali, and they used to oppose the sahaabah, (claiming) that they were the ones in compliance (with the teachings) of Islaam; and that the Sahaabah were misguided and had become disbelievers.  It is the same at present– as the saying goes, history repeats itself; at present–according to the these khawaarij– the scholars of the Sunnah are misguided, worshipers of the rulers, spies, employees, people of feasts and ambiguity…and ….and… other distorted (or defamatory statements of these khawaarij) by way of which they hinder the youth of the Ummah from the truth and from the path of Allaah (تبارك وتعالى).
