[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.”
