Hadeeth: The Kharijites Will Continue to Appear And Be Cut Off Each Time Until The Dajjaal (Anti-Christ) Appears Amongst Their Latter-Day Remnants
The Kharijites (Takfiris) Will Continue to Emerge Until the Appearance of the Dajjaal Amongst ThemIbn Maajah brings under the heading "Chapter Concerning the Mention of the Kharijites" the hadeeth of Abdullah bin Umar that the Prophet (sallallaahu alayhi wasallam said:
A people will emerge who recite the Qur'an but it will not go past their throats. Every time a faction of them emerges it will be cut off.
And also:
Ibn Umar said: I heard the Messenger of Allaah (sallallaahu alayhi wasallam) say, "Every time a faction of them emerges it will be cut off", more than twenty times [before saying] "until Dajjaal appears amongst them".
This is reported by Ibn Maajah and declared Hasan by Shaykh al-Albaani in Saheeh Ibn Maajah (1/75-76, no. 144).
And in the Musnad of Imaam Ahmad there occurs in the hadeeth of Abdullaah bin Amr bin al-Aaas:
I heard the Messenger of Allaah (sallallaahu alayhi wasallam) saying: "There will emerge a people from my Ummah from the East who recite the Qur'an but it does not go beyond their throats. Every time a faction amongst them emerges it will be cut off. Every time a faction amongst them emerges it will be cut off", until he said it ten times, "Every time a faction amongst them emerges it will be cut off, until the Dajjaal appears amongst their (later) remnants."
Ahmad Shakir in his tahqeeq of the Musnad declared this to be Saheeh (11/88).
There is also the hadeeth of Abdullah bin Umar in which he narrates that the Messenger (sallallaahu alayhi wasallam) said:
A group will emerge who recite the Qur'an but it does not go beyond their throats. Every time a faction amongst them emerges it will be cut off. Every time a faction amongst them emerges it will be cut off, until the Dajjaal appears amongst them.
This hadeeth is graded Hasan by Shaykh al-Albaani in Saheeh al-Jaami' (no. 8171), and it is narrated by Ibn Majah from Ibn Umar.
The question inevitably arises:
If the Khawaarij will continue to re-emerge, then who are they today? Who are their figureheads. What are their books? If this is divinely revealed information, then surely, it is the truth, and surely, these Kharijites, their figureheads, callers, and books must be able to be identified, since the hadeeths clearly state that they will continue to be cut off each time they emerge. The answers to these questions form the basis of this website! Read and be upon baseerah!

Be warned from reading Sayyid Qutb’s In the Shade of the Qur`an
Aboo Bakr as-Siddeeq (radiallaahu ‘anhu) was asked a question about an ayah from the Book of Allaah and he said in reply, “Which earth will carry me? Which sky will shade me? If I say about an ayah from the Book of Allaah other than what Allaah, the Perfect and Most High, intended.” [At-Tabari 1:78]
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Saalih al-’Uthaymin (rahimahullaah) was asked about the books of Sayyid Qutb, particularly Fi Thilalil-Quran (In the Shade of the Qur`an) and Ma’alim fit-Tariq (Milestones).
The shaikh answered:
[From the Cassette: Aqwaal ul-Ulamaa Fee Ibtaal Qawaa`id wa Maqaalaat Adnaan Ar'oor, and checked by Shaikh Ibn Uthaimeen himself on 24/4/1421H.]
quote:
“My statement – may Allaah bless you – is that whoever is sincere to Allaah, His Messenger, and his brother Muslims, then he should encourage the people to read the books of those who have preceded us, from the books of tafsir (explanation of the Qur`an) and other than (the books of) tafsir. These books contain more blessings, are more beneficial and are much better than the books of the later ones. As for the tafsir of Sayyid Qutb – may Allaah have mercy upon him – then it contains great calamities, however we hope that Allaah pardons him. It contains great calamities…“
Shaikh ‘Abdullaah bin Muhammad as-Dawaish in his book Al-Mawrid uz-Zilaal fit-Tanbeeh alaa Akhtaa’a az-Zilaal
Wallaahu Musta’aan.
quote:
counted in Qutb’s tafseer 181 errors in ‘aqidah.
Here are some of Qutb’s errors in ‘aqidah:
- Qutb believed in the evil, Kufr-infested ideology of wahdatul wujood, which Shaikh Ahmad an-Najmee (rahimahullaah) called the “greatest of kufr,” and about which Shaikh al-Fawzaan (hafidhahullaah) said: even Iblees himself distinguished between The Creator and His creations
- Qutb believed in the likewise dangerous ideology of hulool
- Qutb made takfir of the Muslim Ummah; hence Shaikh ‘Ubaid al-Jabiree’s statement: “Sayyid Qutb is the flag-bearer of takfeer in this time.”
- Qutb denied Attributes of Allaah
- Qutb claimed the Qur`an was created
- Qutb criticized Prophet Moses (‘alayhi sallam)
- Qutb’s speaking with Hurriyatul I’tiqaad – that a person can believe in whatever religion he wishes
- Qutb denied that Jesus (‘alaihi sallam) was raised to the heavens
- Qutb ridiculed Uthman bin ‘Affan (radiAllaahu ‘anhu)
- Qutb rebelled against the ruler …
Shaikh Muhammad Amaan al-Jaamee (rahimahullaah) said,
[A lecture: Answers to questions about the manhaj of Ahlus - Sunnah wal - Jamaa'ah in calling to Allah. Cassette no. 1. Jeddah 4/1413H]
quote:
The book ath-thilaal of Sayyid Qutb is a tafseer that is not a tafseer based upon narrations, not a tafseer from the language. Rather it is a composition containing a confused mixture of the ideas of the Ash’arees, the ideas of “Wahdatul Wujood” and the ideas of the Soofees, and he was an Ash’aree about which there is no dispute.
Qutb’s massive errors in ‘aqidah can be found below (along with scholarly refutations):
Shaikh Ibn Baaz refuted Qutb’s tafsir

Importance of reading the books of the Salaf for the Salafi.
:bism2:
The distinguished carrier of the flag of Jarh Wa Ta'deel in this time- even if the noses of others are turned up- the Muhaddith Ash Shaikh Rabee' As Sunnah, may Allah preserve him, said:
May Allah give us and you his guidance and may he return us and you to the Manhaj of the Salaf Us Salih. Because verily, by Allah, there is a divide here between us and the Manhaj of the Salaf Us Salih, I ask Allah to return us to it.
And from the most important of it is allegiance and disassociation (Walaa Wal Baraa) as the Messenger :saw: said: "The most sturdy handhold of Imaan is loving for Allah and hating for Allah." So at this time is this principle existant within us or did others take it away from us?
The principle of love and hate for Allah is this existant now in us?
Is everyone upon this? No by Allah... the current situation, and we know that now that the biggest testimony to this is that we don't take this current situation seriously. Not so?
We felt this with our hands now that we find our youths with the people of innovations, those who have gone beyond the bounds and are oppressors... therefore is this Walaa and Baraa (for Allah's sake)?
The statement of the Messenger :saw: is a proof upon us where he said: "Verily the souls are like platoons, whichever one knows the other will unite and whichever one dislikes the other it will disagree, a person is with whom he loves and they will be raised with such people. They loved them and their hearts and souls united with them and their hearts and souls have become distant with many of the Salafis.
Therefore my brothers we have to repent to Allah becfause we have done major oppresion and we have entered into a dangerous deviation therefore we have to return to Allah and return to the truth and return to the chapters of Walaa and Baraa and learn them my dear brothers.
And from the books dealing with this are:
- Khalq 'Afaal Al 'Ibaad by Imam Al Bukhari and look at the stance of the Salaf toward the people of innovation.
- And also Al I'tisaam by Imam Ash Shatibi
- The Sunnah by Abdillah Ibn Ahmad
- Ash Sharee'ah by Al Ajurri,
- Sharh Usuul Al 'Itiqaad Ahlus Sunnah by Al Lalakaaee
- The Ibanatain (As Sughra and Al Kubrah) by Ibn Battah.

| How does a person leave the realm of Ad-Dawatus Salafiyyah or leave the realm of the Manhaj of the Salaf? | by Nasrin for everyone |
Question posed to Shaikh Abdus-Salâm Ibn Burjis
[May Allâh have Mercy on him]
Transcribed: Dâwûd Abdul Ali [May Allâh have mercy on him]
How does a person leave the realm of Ad-Dawatus Salafiyyah or leave the realm of the Manhaj of the Salaf?
The Sheikh [May Allâh have mercy on him] responded: If a person'sUsool [fundamentals, principles] is the fundamental with that of Ahlus-Sunnah wal-Jamaa'ah he is with them. For example, he believes in the three types of Tawheed in the type of dealing with the Names and Attributes of Allãh I and that he proceeds upon the methodology of the Salaf in this also concerning the Ruboobiyyah, the Lordship of Allãh; that Allãh created this Universe, this Kawn [ reality], and He disposes of its affairs etc…. Also, he agrees with Ahlus-Sunnah in regards that Allãh I is the only One to be worshipped in theUloohiyyah.
Also, he agrees with Ahlus-Sunnah concerning Imaan, concerning Faith; that it is saying and actions that it increases with obedience and decreases with sinning. But if a person was to be mistaken in a certain matter due to him misunderstanding it but his origin or his fundamental that he was proceeding upon was the same or in agreement to the People of the Sunnah then Insha’Allâh, this person wouldn't leave the fold or realm of Ahlus-Sunnah.
Rather, he would be mistaken in this. For example, if a person was to come along to you and say," Imaan, [Faith], is saying and actions. It increases with obedience to Allãh and decreases with disobedience." But, then he says," Kufr does not occur except with I'tiqaad[belief].” And he would say, “But Sheikh we don't differ with you in the Asal [foundation]
Whoever says this, he has agreed with the Jahmiyyah or theMurjiyyah and he should return to the truth! We advise and admonish our brothers that they should; Fear Allãh I! From making I'khaal of a person to Salafiyyah, saying that this man is a Salafi and this one is not a Salafi.
For verily this is the Religion of Allãh I and these matters need evidence and they need proof. Salafiyyah is not a group from the various groups that we call someone and we enter him into it. Rather, it is obtained by following the Kitaab and Sunnah with the Fahm[understanding]

| Signs of the Victorious Group | by Nasrin for everyone |
Signs of the Victorious Group by the Imaam 'Abdul 'Azeez ibn Baaz may Allah have
mercy upon him.
Female Questioner asks: I would like to know (who are) the Saved Sect until the
Day of Resurrection, as it comes in the hadeeth of the Messenger sallahu 'alayhi
wasallam. And are they present in one country or spread throughout the lands of
the Muslims. What can I do so that I can be from amongst them?
Answer: The Saved Sect are those who fulfill the commandments of Allah, are
steadfast upon the religion of Allah. The Prophet sallahu 'alayhi wasallam said:
(My Ummah will split into seventy-three sects, all of them in the fire except
one! It was said: Who are they Oh Messenger of Allah? He said: That which I and
my companions are upon*).
And in another narration: (It is the Jamaa'ah) meaning those who are united and
gathered upon the truth and they are the Companions of the Messenger sallahu
'alayhi wasallam and those who come after them who follow in their path.
These people are indeed the Victorious Group, the Saved Sect, those who single
Allah out in His Oneness, remain steadfast upon His religion, carry out His
obligations, refrain from His prohibitions, recommend one another with all that
is good, forbid one another from all that is evil and recommend (each other) to
be patient upon that. These ones are certainly the Victorious Group and the
Saved Sect the ones who adhere and follow the Messengers 'alayhim salaam and
remain firm upon their way, the most virtuous amongst them and their (the
Prophets) leader being our Prophet Muhammad sallahu 'alayhi wasallam.
So the Victorious Group from this nation are those who remain solid and sound
upon the religion (of Islaam) by way of statements, actions and beliefs. This is
the Victorious Group and the Saved Sect not being harmed by those who do not
support them nor by those who oppose them.

What Is Salafiyyah?
Author: Shaikh Ahmad Bin Yahya An Najmee (may Allah have mercy upon him)Translator: Abu ‘Abdis Salaam Siddiq Al Juyaanee
__________________________________________
As Salafiyyah is a connection to the Salaf. The Salaf are companions of the Messenger of Allah (sallAllaahu ‘alahi wasallam) and those who follow them in good from the first three virtuous generations and then (all those) after them (who follow them and are upon their way). This is Salafiyyah. An affiliation to Salafiyyah means (that one) affiliates (his/herself) to that which the companions of the Messenger of Allah (sallAllaahu ‘alahi wasallam) were upon and the way of the people of Hadeeth. The people of Hadeeth are those who are upon the Salafy methodology and follow it. As Salafiyyah is the (proper) belief in the names and attributes of Allah, the (proper) belief in Qadar and the (proper) belief in the Sahaabah (companions of the Messenger of Allah (sallAllaahu ‘alahi was sallam) and so on and so forth.
The Salaf believe in Allah and in His beautiful names and exalted attributes that He (Allah) has described Himself with; and that which He was described with, by His Messenger (sallAllaahu ‘alaihi wasallam). They believed in (His names and attributes) in a manner that befits the majesty of Allah (Subhaanahu wat Ta’ala), without distorting them, nor resembling them to the creation, nor negating them nor explaining them with false and erroneous explanations.
They believe in Qadar the good and bad of it and that a servant’s Imaan (faith) is not complete until he believes in the Qadar that Allah has decreed upon His Servants. Allah says,
They believe in Qadar the good and bad of it and that a servant’s Imaan (faith) is not complete until he believes in the Qadar that Allah has decreed upon His Servants. Allah says,
إِنَّا كُلَّ شَيْءٍ خَلَقْنَاهُ بِقَدَرٍ
“And verily We created everything with Qadar.”
[Suratul Qamar: 49]
“And verily We created everything with Qadar.”
[Suratul Qamar: 49]
As far as the (proper belief with regards to the) Sahaabah, this means the belief, that it is incumbent to be pleased with the companions of the Messenger of Allah (sallAllaahu ‘alahi wasallam) and that all of them are trustworthy and that they are the best of the Ummah and the best generation. The belief that every one of them is trustworthy, opposes that which is believed by the Shi’ah and the Khawaarij who considered the companions of the Messenger of Allah (sallAllaahu ‘alahi wasallam) to be disbelievers and did not recognize their rights or the truth (of their noble position).
Salafiyyah does not have a leader other than the Messenger of Allah (sallAllaahu ‘alahi wasallam). The Messenger of Allah (sallAllaahu ‘alahi wasallam) is the Imaam of Salafiyyah and the example (that is to be followed). The companions of the Messenger of Allah (sallAllaahu ‘alahi wasallam) are (also) examples (to be followed). The foundation (or source) of this principle (can be found) in the statement of the Prophet (sallAllaahu ‘alahi wasallam),
“The Jews split into seventy one groups. The Christians split into seventy two groups. This Ummah will split into seventy three groups; all of them will be in the fire except one.” They (the Sahaabah) said, “Who are they (that saved group) O Messenger of Allah?” He, (sallAllaahu ‘alahi wasallam) said, “They are the ones who are upon the like of what I and my companions are upon.”
[Hadeeth collected by Imaam Abu Dawood, Imaam Ibn Maajah, Imaam Ahmad, and Imaam Ad Daaramee. Graded hassan saheeh by Imaam Al Albaanee]
And his (sallAllaahu ‘alahi wasallam’s) statement in the hadeeth of Al ‘Irbaad bin Saariyah (radi Allahu ‘anhu) who described the Prophet’s (sallAllaahu ‘alahi wasallam) sermon, and that afterwards he (sallAllaahu ‘alahi wasallam) advised them to fear Allah. He (sallAllaahu ‘alahi wasallam) said,
“I advise you to fear Allah and to listen and obey (the Muslim ruler), even if a slave was to become your ruler.”
Then he (sallAllaahu ‘alahi wasallam) ordered that his Sunnah and the Sunnah of the rightly guided khulafaa (plural of khaleefah) be followed. He (sallAllaahu ‘alahi wasallam) said,
“Incumbent upon you is my sunnah and the sunnah of the rightly guided khulafaa after me, bite (hold) onto it with your molar teeth. And beware of newly invented matters (in the religion), for verily every newly invented matter (in the religion) is a bid’ah and every bid’ah is a misguidance.”

The Ruling on Splitting Into Groups and Parties

Imaam Muhammad Naasirud-Deen Al-AlbaaneeSource: Tape #602 of the Silsilah Al-Hudaa wan-Noor Series
Translated exclusively for www.bakkah.net [1]
QUESTIONER: All praise is due to Allaah, may His Salaah and Salaam be upon His trustworthy Messenger, and upon all of his family and companions, to proceed:
This is a question for our shaykh, the 'Allaamah, Shaykh Naasir. The questioner asks, "What is the Sharee'ah's ruling on these numerous Islaamic groups, sects, and organizations - as they are different from each other in their methodologies, styles, calls, and beliefs, the very foundations that they are established upon? In regards specifically to the hadeeth that proves that the group that adheres to the Truth is a single group?"
AL-ALBAANEE: We have made a great number of statements surrounding the answer to this question, so now let us bring forth something further about it.
We say: It is not hidden from any Muslim who knows the Book, the Sunnah, and what our righteous predecessors were upon (may Allaah be pleased with them all) that the division into parties and the gathering of the people upon their various ideas, firstly, and their various methodologies and styles, secondly [2], is not part of Islaam in any way. Rather this is from the things that our Lord, Mighty and Majestic, has prohibited us from, in more than one verse in the Noble Qur'aan, like the statement of Allaah, the Mighty and Majestic [3]:
( And do not be from the polytheists, from those who split up their religion and became sects, every sect rejoicing about what was with them )
And our Lord, the Mighty and Majestic, says [4]:
( And if your Lord so willed, He would have made the people into one nation, but they will go on differing, except those on whom your Lord has Mercy )
Allaah, the Glorified and Exalted, made an exception to this differing, this differing that we are going to see in reality, even though it is prohibited by the Sharee'ah. He exempted At-Taa'ifatul-Marhoomah (the group that will receive Mercy) from this differing, when He said:
( …except those on whom Allaah has Mercy )
And there is no uncertainty and no doubt that any group that wants to be truly sincere to Allaah, then they will try to become from the nation that receives Allaah's Mercy, those exempted from this differing that is going to exist. Verily this differing is not going to be something to help them reach their goals and they will not accomplish anything practical within the Muslim societies except by returning to the Book of Allaah, the Sunnah of the Messenger (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam), and what our righteous predecessors (may Allaah be pleased with them all) were upon.
The Messenger of Allaah (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) clarified the flawless methodology in more than one authentic hadeeth. The Prophet (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) drew a straight line on the ground one day. Then he drew short lines all around the straight line, on both sides of it. Then he recited Allaah's Statement, Blessed and Exalted [5]:
( And verily this is My Straight Path - follow it! And do not follow the other paths, as they will cause you to break away from My Path! )
After the Prophet (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) read the verse, he ran his finger along the straight path and said:
"This is the Path of Allaah, and these paths on its sides, the sides of the straight path, there is a Shaytaan at the head of every path, calling the people to it." [6]
There is no doubt that these short lines were made to represent the numerous sects and groups. Therefore it is obligatory on every Muslim who sincerely longs to be part of the saved sect, that he sets out to follow this Straight Path and does not turn right or left. There will be no successful sect other than Allaah's Sect, Blessed and Exalted, the one that He told us about in the Noble Qur'aan [7]:
( Verily it is the sect of Allaah that will be uppermost )
Therefore, every sect other than Allaah's Sect, is only one of Shaytaan's sects, and not the Sect of Ar-Rahmaan. And there is no uncertainty and no doubt that taking the Straight Path requires one to be firmly aware of what this Straight Path really is. This could never occur with blind partisanship or by blindly gathering the people together upon a statement, even a statement based on the Truth - Islaam, for they understand very little of Islaam. So this act of becoming a group will not be correct or successful unless it is coupled with awareness of Islaam - the same Islaam that Allaah revealed upon the heart of Muhammad (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam).
One sign of the saved sect, one that the Prophet (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) described clearly when he was asked about it, is found in his statement:
"It is what I and my Companions are upon this day." [8]
Therefore this hadeeth gives the concerned researcher a firm awareness that this Straight Path of Allaah must be sought upon knowledge of two very, very important affairs: (1) what the Messenger (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) was upon and (2) what his Companions were upon. That is firstly because the noble Companions were the ones who brought his guidance (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) to us, his Sunnah. Secondly, they were best of the people in truly applying this Sunnah of his. So when the affair is like this, it is not possible for us to properly understand the Sunnah of the Prophet (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) in a way other than the way his Companions understood it.
As known to people of knowledge, the Sunnah is broken down into Al-Qowliyyah (statements), Al-Fi'liyyah (actions), and At-Taqreeriyyah (approvals). As for As-Sunnah Al-Qowliyyah, then it is easily understood, it is the statements that the Companions reported from him (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam). As-Sunnah Al-Fi'liyyah is what they reported regarding his actions (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam). As for As-Sunnah At-Taqreeriyyah, it is what the Companions reported about each other, not from his actions (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam), but he saw the action and remained silent about it. This silence is not considered from his statements (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam), nor from his actions, rather it is his approval.
From here, it is appropriate for me that I stress the importance of joining together these two affairs that we have mentioned here. It is not sufficient for any Islaamic group that ascribes to the Truth, claiming to work by the Qur'aan and the Sunnah, that they summarize Islaam to be based only on the Book and the Sunnah. Rather they must also have a clear awareness of how the Companions of the Messenger (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) implemented his Sunnah.
There are many, many examples that make the importance of combining of these two affairs easily understood. I have mentioned a conglomeration of them during previous speeches and in my answers to people's questions. Another example has come to me now - verily it is what is found inSaheeh Al-Bukhaaree, the Sunan of Abee Daawood, and other books, and it comes by more than one route, that the Prophet (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) used to order his Companions to straighten the lines during the establishment of the prayer. Nu'maan ibn Basheer and others said,"One of us would connect his foot to his companion's foot and his shoulder to his companions shoulder." [9] This is something that actually took place among the Companions; it was how they carried out the order of the Messenger (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) to straighten the rows.
There is no uncertainty and no doubt that the Prophet (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) could not possibly have been unaware of what his Companions were doing directly behind him as they followed him in prayer. It was not possible for this consolidation that his Companions practiced to be hidden from him, as they were carrying out his order (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) to straighten and consolidate the rows. For verily, from the amazing things that were specific to him, from his miracles, he was able to see what was behind him just as he could see what was in front of him during the prayer. [10]
So if straightening and consolidating the rows in this fashion, connecting the feet and shoulders, had not been legislated, then it would have been takalluf (overburdening oneself, excessiveness). And if it was takalluf, then the Messenger (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) would have forbidden them from it. That is because, as in the authentic hadeeth, he prohibited takalluf. [11]
If it is said that maybe it was possible that this was done without his knowledge (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam), then I say that the avenues of 'maybe' are very expansive indeed, however this issue we are discussing can not be like that due to two reasons. I have mentioned one of them, that the Prophet (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) used to see what was behind him just as he could see what was in front of him.
The second reason is that if it so happened that he (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) had not witnessed this thing that the Companions were doing behind him in prayer, then verily no secret affair on Earth nor in the Heavens was ever hidden from the Lord of the Messenger (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam). So, as I have said about our Messenger (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) before, he had no duty other than conveying Allaah's Message. So, firstly and quite decisively, it should be said about the Lord of our Messenger, Blessed and Exalted - If He, the One whom no secret affair on Earth nor in the Heavens is hidden from, did not want to legislate this manner of straightening and consolidating the rows for His believing servants, then He would have ordered His Prophet (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) to prohibit them from this takalluf.
Therefore, it is not befitting for the Muslim to understand his silence (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) about something as anything other than something our Lord, the Mighty and Majestic, was aware of, and, furthermore, Allaah's approval for His Prophet to allow that thing to take place.
From here let us move on to refer to some of the issues that have been the source of differing for a long time, issues related to some fiqh rulings between the Hanafees and Shaafi'ees. One side would bring a proof regarding something that happened in the time of the Prophet (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam). The other side would refute that, saying that there is no clear indication in the report that what happened was made known to the Prophet (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam), it does not say that he was informed about it and approved of it. This reply that some of the people of themath-habs gave is refuted by that which has preceded in our discussion.
Let me give you an example or two. As found in Saheeh Al-Bukhaaree, Mu'aath ibn Jabal (may Allaah be pleased with him) used to pray the last prayer (of the day), the 'Eshaa' prayer, behind the Messenger of Allaah (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) in his masjid. Then he used to go to his tribe and lead them in 'Eshaa' prayer as well.
One of the narrators of the hadeeth, Jaabir ibn 'Abdillaah (may Allaah be pleased with him), said, "It was an optional prayer for him, and it was their obligatory prayer." Some of the early imaams used this as a proof to say that it is permissible for a person to pray his obligatory prayer behind someone praying an optional prayer. So some of the people of the math-habs used to refute this, saying that there is no proof in this, as there is no mention that the Prophet (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) knew that Mu'aath was returning to his people to pray with them after praying with him - an optional prayer for him, and their obligatory prayer. I think you all know the answer now.
For if we say that the Messenger of Allaah (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) truly did not know that Mu'aath was repeating this prayer optionally, then our Lord, the Mighty and Majestic, as I have said previously, knows the secret and hidden affairs. So if this action of Mu'aath was something not legislated, then the ruling would have came down from the Heavens clarifying that this is something not from the Sharee'ah.
Let me give you another example, and I will sum up our talk with this one. I am only bringing a lot of examples here because of the importance of this point, for I have seldom found it explained clearly and properly in the books of the scholars. In the Musnad of Al-Imaam Ahmad, the Mustadrak of Al-Haakim, the Sunan of Al-Bayhaqee, and other books of the Sunnah, there is another report on the authority of Jaabir (may Allaah be pleased with him) wherein he said, "We were out with the Prophet (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) during a battle when we killed a woman from the polytheists..."
I need to make a side note here, and I hope it will be very brief: This hadeeth does not contradict the narration wherein the Prophet (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) prohibited the killing of women and children. [12] That is because the prohibition has its proper place, and the killing mentioned here in the hadeeth of Jaabir has another place. The prohibition is applied to women that do not take part in the battlefield against the Muslims. This also applies to children, as they are also not part of the fighting armies.
Let us go back to Jaabir's narration, "…we killed a woman from the polytheists…" meaning from those who were fighting. He went on, "…and her husband was absent. When he returned and was informed of what happened, he vowed not to enter the village until after he had taken revenge on the Companions of the Messenger of Allaah (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) for her killing. So he followed the Companions' footsteps, tracking them down…"
It is well known that the Arabs used to know how to track people proficiently by following after their footsteps. They used to have this skill of tracing footsteps, in fact it is what led them to discover the hiding place of the Prophet (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) in the cave the day he made hijrah from Makkah to Al-Madeenah. It was his footsteps that led them to know that the Messenger (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) had reached that place since the footsteps had disappeared. But Allaah blinded their vision so they could not see the Messenger (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) nor his companion in the cave.
When his companion (Aboo Bakr As-Siddeeq) saw the feet of the polytheists, he became afraid, not for his own self, but for the sake of his Prophet (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam). So he (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) said:
( Do not grieve, for verily Allaah is with us. )
Something must be said here about what has been mentioned in some books of hadeeth, and in books of seerah as well, that the disbelievers of Quraysh, after having tracked their fugitives to the cave, saw that a dove had made its nest at the entrance of the cave, and a spider had spun a web there as well, so they allegedly said, "It is not possible for anyone to be in this cave," and departed.
This is not authentic. As for the chain of this hadeeth, it is not authentic. Furthermore there is a strong, authentic narration stating that Allaah, the Mighty and Majestic, ordered an angel to spread his wings over the cave's entrance, and thus they did not see them. [13]
Let us return to our hadeeth of the polytheist that tracked the army waging war on the village. He reached their place of rest for the night, which was in a valley. As was the Prophet's way in organizing the military, he (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) said to his Companions:
"Who will stand guard tonight?"
So two young men from the Ansaar stood up, one from the tribe of Al-Ows, the other from Al-Khazraj. They said, "We will, O Messenger of Allaah!" He (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) said to them:
"Take your places at the opening of the mountain passage."
So they went off. The polytheist was watching them from afar, waiting for his chance to fulfill his vow to get revenge for his wife. When they got to their post, the place where they were to watch over the sleeping army, the two decided to split the duty. One of them would stand guard half the night while the other slept, then they would trade places.
So then an idea came to the first one on guard, he decided to combine two forms of worship at one time - the worship of guarding the Muslim army and the worship of prayer in the tranquility of the night. So he began to pray. This is when the polytheist who was hiding behind a rock took his opportunity. He threw a spear at the praying guard, placing it in his leg. So the Companion only removed the spear and tossed it on the ground, and the blood began to stream down his leg. When the polytheist saw that his target had not ceased standing, it made him know that he was still alive of course, so he struck him with another spear, placing it in his leg. Then he struck him with another, a total of three spears hitting his target.
From Jaabir's precise use of words, he said that he "placed" [14] the spear in his leg, and "placing" is normally done by the hand. He used this word to stress the precision found in the throws, as if he placed the spear directly in him manually (without throwing it).
Even through all of this, the Companion continued his prayer without cutting it off, while the blood poured from him. He completed two rak'ahs. Then he either woke his companion up, or he woke up on his own. When his companion saw the blood, he inquired about it and asked what had caused it.
He said, "I swear by the One in whose Hand is my soul, verily I was in the middle of a soorah, and if I had not been afraid of failing to guard the passageway that the Messenger of Allaah assigned me to, then I would still be reading it." Meaning that he remembered while praying that he was on duty to watch over the sleeping army, a duty that the Messenger (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) assigned him.
So if he would have continued his prayer, allowing the sweetness of his private discourse in front of Allaah to keep him, the polytheist would have continued to strike him, then he may have been killed during that prayer, thus not fulfilling his duty and possibly allowing the enemy to attack the Muslims. For that reason, he contented himself with only two rak'ahs of prayer. He did not do that fearing his own life - no! He only did that fearing the destruction of the Companions that would have followed his death, as the enemies would have been able to attack them due to his failure.
We have reached the end of this story. The reference point from it is that some of the imaams used it as a proof that wudhoo' is not broken by bleeding, and rightly so. Since, if wudhoo' is broken upon bleeding, this man would not have continued praying. Those who oppose them say that this was his personal action only. Those being refuted say, "Yes, but this was a man from the Companions of the Messenger of Allaah (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam)." So they reply, "There is nothing in the hadeeth indicating that the Messenger of Allaah (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) knew anything about this."
We answer them with two things, and there is an answer for them in the story of Mu'aath (may Allaah be pleased with him) that has preceded as well. But there is something stronger than that in these two answers:
1 - This man was appointed to a duty by the Messenger of Allaah (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam). He suffered these injuries in such a situation, while worshipping, maintaining his good spirit. Is it possible for the commander of army to be ignorant about an event like this, any army commander?! So then what if that commander was the Messenger of Allaah (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam)? It is extremely, extremely unlikely that this could have happened without the Messenger of Allaah's knowledge (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam).
Therefore, the correct position is that the Messenger of Allaah (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) was aware of this event. Built on this, if bleeding is something that breaks wudhoo', then he (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) surely would have made it clear. As is well known in the fundamentals of fiqh, "It is not permissible to delay clarification beyond the time of need."
2 - If those who oppose this continue in their stubbornness, in their claim that there is no mention in the text that Messenger of Allaah (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) knew about this, then we say to them: It is sufficient for you that the Lord of the Messenger knew about it. This is something not possible for them to refute. So while He did not reveal anything in His Sharee'ah clarifying that blood is something that breaks wudhoo', then this story is an additional proof for those who use it to say that bleeding does not break wudhoo'.
The reason why I have brought all these points is so that we understand that there is no way to reach the true, correct understanding of Islaam, except by knowing the seerah of the Companions and how they practiced this great Islaam, the religion that he (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) taught them personally, whether by his statements, actions, or approvals.
Based on this, we believe firmly that every group that does not build upon this foundation, the Book, the Sunnah, and the methodology of the righteous predecessors, with an expansive, studious approach that includes all of Islaam's rulings, big and small, central issues and subsidiary ones, is not part of the saved sect, the one that treads the Straight Path that the Messenger (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) referred to in the authentic hadeeth.
If we took into account that there are various groups in the Muslim lands, all upon this same methodology, then these are not sects, rather they are only one group, their methodology is one methodology, their way is one way. Their division throughout the different lands is not a division because of fiqh issues, nor a division based upon different 'aqeedahs, nor a division resulting from different methodologies. Verily this division is only due to their physical separation throughout the lands, as opposed to the differing between groups and sects all in the same land, with regards to that [15]:
( …every sect rejoicing about what was with them )
We do not believe that these sects are upon the Straight Path, rather we say quite decisively that they are upon those other paths, the ones that have a shaytaan at the head of each one of their paths calling to them.
I hope that there is an answer in this to the question that preceded.

A similar statement was also reported on Anas ibn Maalik in the same chapter, and Anas added, "If I did this with one of them today, he would flee like an untamed donkey!" See Fathul-Baaree (2/260).
[10] As he (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) said, on the authority of Anas:
"Establish your rows, for verily I see you from behind my back."
It was collected by Al-Bukhaaree (#718, 2/255 of Fathul-Baaree). Also, it is important to mention that the Prophet (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam), when ordering the Companions to straighten their rows and consolidate, he would turn and face them to ensure that their lines were straight, as found in Saheeh Muslim (#978) and Sunan Abee Daawood (#662 of Saheeh Sunan Abee Daawood) for example, and the reports are many. So this action of the Companions (placing their feet and shoulders together) was done as he faced them, for why would the Companions wait for him (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) to turn around and begin praying to implement his order? Can you imagine the Companions not carrying out an order from the Messenger of Allaah (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) immediately upon hearing it?! Therefore, firstly and foremostly, their action should be considered from As-Sunnah At-Taqreeriyyah, as it was their immediate, collective reaction to a command issued to them while he (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) was in front of them, looking at them. And for those who will not accept this, then it would still be considered As-Sunnah At-Taqreeriyyah due to this excellent point of the Shaykh, may Allaah have Mercy on him, that the Prophet (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) could actually see them during the prayer from behind his back.

[ In the Name of Allaah, the All-Merciful... ]
The mistakes (found in Fiqhus-Sunnah) could be summarized by the following points:
-1- There exist many narrations that the author did not mention anything about (their authenticity), and they are in fact dha'eef (weak) [1].
-2- He used other narrations to strengthen some of them, but upon investigation, they are unsubstantiated [1].
-3- There exist some narrations that he called dha'eef, but in fact they are authentic, or they have other chains that are authentic.
-4- There exist some narrations that he traced to other than the two Saheehs (Al-Bukhaaree and Muslim), while they are actually in one or both of them.
-5- There exist some narrations that he claimed were in one of the two Saheehs or in other places, but they have no origin in those places.
-6- There exist some narrations that he has mentioned that have absolutely no basis in the books of the Sunnah.
-7- He claims that some narrations are on the authority of a certain Companion, and that they were related by a large group of Hadeeth scholars, while the narration is actually on the authority of another Companion or a group of them.
-8- At times he referenced some narrations to certain source books of Hadeeth without mentioning anything about their authenticity, while the source books that he mentions show clearly why there are problems with the authenticity of those narrations. [2]
-9- He does not follow up the issues well by bringing other related evidences. He has spoken in many issues without providing any proof to support his positions. At times, he uses analogies as proof, while there exists an authentic hadeeth. Other times, he uses a general evidence as his proof, while a specific evidence exists in the issue [1].
-10- There is a lack of research and investigation in some cases, like in the section Recommended Times for Bathing and in other places.
-11- He quotes a number of conflicting statements and positions within a single issue without providing any conclusion.
-12- There exists a lack of consistancy in his opinions in some of the topics addressed, for example he holds one opinion in the beginning of his writing, and then later in the conclusion he has another opinion.
-13- Sometimes he concludes with statements and opinions that do not deserve to be concluded with, due to either the weakness of supporting evidences for that conclusion, or the strength of the evidences that support the opposite conclusion.
-14- He opposes authentic narrations that have no reason in them for this stance. This happens in more than one place.

Wahhabism: Is it a fifth Madh-hab?
Reply given by Ibn Baz to written questions posed by a Shaykh from outside the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
From ‘Abdul-‘Aziz ibn ‘Abdullah ibn Baz to my esteemed brother, may Allah guide you to useful knowledge and to act upon it! Amen. Peace be upon you!
I have received your letter dated 2/3/1394 A.H. May Allah guide you and grant you success! It included three questions about Wahhabism. Following is my answer:
Q 1: You asked about Wahhabism and whether it is a fifth Madh-hab (School of Jurisprudence) or follows one of the four Madh-habs.
A: The term Wahhabism is used by many people to refer to the call initiated by Imam Muhammad ibn ‘Abdul-Wahhab ibn Sulayman Al-Tamimy Al-Hanbaly (may Allah be merciful to him). He is called along with his followers ‘Wahhabis’. Every knowledgeable person must have heard about Shaykh Muhammad ibn ‘Abdul-Wahhab’s movement (may Allah be merciful to him). He called for pure Tawhid (belief in the Oneness of Allah) and warned people against all forms of Shirk (associating others with Allah in His Divinity or worship), such as supplicating to the dead, trees, rocks or the like. He (may Allah be merciful to him) followed in creedal matters the Madh-hab (School of Jurisprudence) of the Salaf (righteous predecessors) while in subsidiary matters he followed the Madh-hab of Imam Ahmad ibn Hanbal Al-Shaibany (may Allah be merciful to him). This is clear in the books and Fatwas (legal opinions) of Muhammad ibn ‘Abdul-Wahhab and in the books of his followers and offspring which are published. Imam Muhammad ibn ‘Abdul-Wahhabappeared at a time when Islam was alienated, the Arabian Peninsula and other areas were engulfed in ignorance and worshiping idols was widespread. So the Shaykh took it upon himself to strive and struggle, and devoted himself to destroying all means of misguidance.
( Part No : 1,Page No:375)
He employed all the possible ways leading to the spread of Tawhid free from any kind of superstition. Allah, out of His Bounty, made Imam Muhammad ibn Sa‘ud, Prince of Al-Dir‘iyyah at that time, accept the call. Thus, the Prince, his sons, those under his authority and his followers supported the Imam, may Allah reward them, forgive them and grant their offspring success to all that pleases Him and to what sets right the affairs of His Servants! All regions of the Arabian Peninsula have lived under this righteous call to the present day. Thus, Imam Ibn ‘Abdul-Wahhab’s call was in accordance with the Qur’an and Sunnah (whatever is reported from the Prophet). Wahhabism is not a fifth Madh-hab as some ignorant and prejudiced people claim; rather, it is a call to the ‘Aqidah (creed) of Salafiyyah (those following the way of the righteous predecessors) and a way of reviving the main aspects of Islam and Tawhid which was forgotten in the Arabian Peninsula.
( Part No : 1,Page No:376)
Q 2: Do Wahhabis deny Shafa‘ah (intercession) by the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him)? A: Any wise person who has studied the biography of Imam Shaykh Muhammad ibn ‘Abdul-Wahhab and his followers know they are innocent of such a claim. The Imam (may Allah be merciful to him) wrote about Shafa‘ah, especially Kitab Al-Tawhid (Book of Monotheism) and refuted the suspicions raised about the Messenger’s Shafa‘ah for his Ummah (nation based on one creed) on the Day of Resurrection. Therefore, it is known that the Shaykh (may Allah be merciful to him) and his followers did not deny the Shafa‘ah of the Messenger (peace be upon him) and that of other prophets, angels, believers and children who die before puberty. However, they established it as Allah and His Messenger have commanded, treading the way of the Salaf in applying the evidence from the Qur’an and Sunnah.Based on this, it is clear that claiming the Shaykh and his followers denied the Shafa‘ah of the Prophet (peace be upon him) is completely groundless. It bars people from the Way to Allah and involves spreading lies against Du‘ah (callers) to Allah. However, the Shaykh (may Allah be merciful to him) and his followers only denied seeking Shafa‘ah from the dead and the like. Shafa‘ah can only be granted with the Permission of Allah to the intercessor and His being pleased with the one interceded for. Allah (may He be Glorified and Exalted) says:Surah Al-Baqarah, 2: 255
Who is he that can intercede with Him except with His Permission. 
And:Surah Al-Najm, 53: 26 And there are many angels in the heavens, whose intercession will avail nothing except after Allâh has given leave for whom He wills and is pleased with. And:Surah Al-Anbiya’, 21: 28 …and they cannot intercede except for him with whom He is pleased. And they stand in awe for fear of Him. Allah (may He be Glorified) accepts only Tawhid, while the Mushriks (those who associate others with Allah in His Divinity or worship) will not benefit from the Shafa‘ah. Allah (may He be Exalted) says:Surah Al-Muddathir, 74: 48 So no intercession of intercessors will be of any use to them. Allah (may He be Glorified and Exalted) also says:Surah Ghafir, 40: 18There will be no friend, nor an intercessor for the Zâlimûn (polytheists and wrong-doers), who could be given heed to. We ask Allah to guide us all to what pleases Him and grant us safety from anything that displeases Him! Allah is the Grantor of success!http://alifta.net/Fatawa/FatawaChapters.aspx?View=Page&PageID=174&PageNo=1&BookID=10
| What's the status and virtue of People of Knowledge in Islam? | by Nasrin for everyone |
What's the status and virtue of People of Knowledge in Islam?
Questioned His Eminence: What's the status and virtue of People of Knowledge in Islam?Answered His Eminence with his saying: The status of people of knowledge has a great status, because they are the inheritor of the Prophets as-salah and as-salam be upon them, and therefore it is obligatory upon them to explain/convey knowledge and call to Allah which is not obligatory upon other than them. They are on the earth like the stars in the sky, they guide the misguided straying creation, and they explain to them the truth, and they warn them from evil and therefore they are on the Earth as the rain strikes the dead earth so it produces vegetation with the permission of Allah.
And it is obligatory upon the people of knowledge from the actions and characters, and manners that is not obligatory upon other than them, because they are an example and model. So, they are the most rightful of people and first of people to act on the legislation in its manners and its characters.

Q: What is the ruling regarding a man who says I love the knowledge that's with Ahlis Sunnah, the etiquettes that's with the ikhwanil muslimeen, and the message of Jamaa'ah At Tabligh?
A: This is confusion. Why don't you hate ikhwanil muslimeen due to what is with them of misguidance, and abandon them because of it? And how is good manners attributed to them while you see their defamation directed towards the people of truth? Perhaps they dazzled this man with some of their fake etiquettes.
Furthermore, what message is it that the tabligh guide to? Have you not seen them convey anything except ignorance, polytheism, innovation in the religion, and fairy tales?!

الرد الجلى على من يخالط أهل الأهواء و البدع
It is known that from the Usuul of the Sunnah that one must not listen to the people of innovation or attend their conferences, lectures, meetings etc. However some of us, and may Allah guide us all, have the idea that if it is that we do not go and sit with the people of innovation and desires and their conferences, lectures etc. that we would not be able to expose the Da’wah As Salafeeyah to the people. The answer to this is as follows:
(1) There are clear evidences from the book of Allah and the Sunnah of the Messenger صلى الله عليه و سلم which show that it is Haraam to sit down and listen to the people of innovation.
From this is the statement of Allah:
It is He Who has sent down to you (Muhammad) the Book (this Qur'ân). In it are Verses that are entirely clear, they are the foundations of the Book [and those are the Verses of Al-Ahkâm(commandments, etc.), Al-Farâ'id (obligatory duties) and Al-Hudud (legal laws for the punishment of thieves, adulterers, etc.)]; and others not entirely clear. So as for those in whose hearts there is a deviation (from the truth) they follow that which is not entirely clear thereof, seeking Al-Fitnah(polytheism and trials, etc.), and seeking for its hidden meanings, but none knows its hidden meanings save Allâh. And those who are firmly grounded in knowledge say: "We believe in it; the whole of it (clear and unclear Verses) are from our Lord." And none receive admonition except men of understanding. (Tafsir At-Tabarî). {Surah 3:7}
Aisha رضي الله عنها said that the Prophet صلى الله عليه و سلم said about this verse: “If you see those who follow that which is unclear then they are those who Allah named therefore stay away from them.”
Also the statement of Allah:
And it has already been revealed to you in the Book (this Qur'ân) that when you hear the Verses of Allâh being denied and mocked at, then sit not with them, until they engage in a talk other than that; (but if you stayed with them) certainly in that case you would be like them. Surely, Allâh will collect the hypocrites and disbelievers all together in Hell {4:140}
Imam As Sa’di said in his Tafseer: “(but if you stayed with them) certainly in that case you would be like them.” Meaning if you sit with them in their aforementioned condition (you would be like them)because you have become satisfied with their disbelief and their mockery and the one who is pleased with sin is like the one who does it.”
Also the statement of Allah:
And leave alone those who take their religion as play and amusement, and are deceived by the life of this world. But remind (them) with it (the Qur'ân) lest a person be given up to destruction for that which he has earned, when he will find for himself no protector or intercessor besides Allâh, and even if he offers every ransom, it will not be accepted from him. Such are they who are given up to destruction because of that which they have earned. For them will be a drink of boiling water and a painful torment because they used to disbelieve. {6:70}
(2) It is Ijmaa’ (consensus) that sitting with the people of innovation is Haraam.
Imam As Sabuuni said in his book ‘Aqeedah As Salaf Ashaabul Hadeeth: “And they (Ahlus Sunnah) dislike the people of innovation, those who have innovated in this religion which is not from it. And they do not love them and they do not befriend them and they do not listen to their speech and they do not sit with them and they do not argue with them about the religion…”
Imam Al Barbahari said: “If you see a man who makes much effort in worship and he is a person of desires, then do not sit with him, and do not listen to him, and do not walk with him on the street.”
So how is it that one expects the Da’wah Us Salafeeyah to spread through a deed which Allah detests? In this deen the ends do not justify the means but rather the means take the ruling of the ends. Hence if the means of attaining success in this da’wah is Haraam how can there be a good end. ِAdditionally the one who is in the sittings of the people of innovation is of them. Ash Shaikh Rabee’ Ibn Haadi was asked:
http://www.sahab.net/forums/showthre…hreadid=344636
السُــــــؤَال :
مَا حُكم من يقول : أنا سلفي ، ثم بعد ذلك يجلس مع الحزبــبيين و يترك إخـوانه السلفــيين ، و يقول : علينا بطلب العلم ، اتركونا من الردود لأنها تضيع الوقت ؟
فـأجَــاب الشيخ العلامة ربيع بن هادي المدخلي حفظه الله بما يلي :
Shaikh, Al Alamah Rabee’ Ibn Haadi Al Madkhali (May Allah preserve him) answered with the following
و الله أعلم في هذا مرض و انحــراف و إلا كــيف يُخَــالف السلفيين و يُـجالس أهل البدع ، و يَـأث.. [... كلمة غير واضحة...] الــردود .
Allah knows best, in this there is sickness and deviance and other than this how can he stay away from the Salafis and sit with the people of Innovation? And ….. (words that were unclear) refutations.
و الرد عـلى البدع من بيان الشريعة و حمايتها ، و من الأمر بالمعروف و النهي عن المنــكر و من النصيحة لله و لكــتابه و لــرسوله و لأئمة المُــسلمين و لــعامتهم.
Refuting the people of innovation is from clarifying and protecting the Shariah, and it is from commanding the good and preventing the evil and it is from being sincere to Allah and his book and his Messenger and the leaders of the Muslims and their commoners
هذا عنده انحراف أو مرض.
This person has deviance and sickness
فيُنصح فــإن أصر على هذه الطــريقة فأرى أن يُـلحق بــأهل البدع. نعم .
He is therefore advised and if he continues upon this way my opinion is that he should be classified among the people of innovation, yes.
كما سئل الإمــام أحمد ـ رحمه الله : فلان يجلس إلى فلان و قد نهيته عن مجالسته
As Imam Ahmad was asked (may Allah have mercy on him): A man sits with someone and I have forbade him from sitting with him
قال : انصحه
He said: Advise him
قال : أبى
The questioner said: He refused
قال ألحـقه بصاحبه.
He said: Classify him with his friend.
هكذا أهل البدع ، الأرواح جنود مجندة ما تعارف منها ائتلف و ما تناكر منها اختلف.
This is how the people of Bid’ah are, the souls are Junnudun Mujannadah, whichever ones are known to each other will unite and whichever ones have dislikes for each other they will separate
و لهذا قال السلف : ” مَن خفيت علينا بدعته ، لم تخف علينا ألفته”.
And for this reason the Salaf have said: Whosever’s innovation is hidden from us, his companions are not hidden from us.
الألفة و المجالسة و المعاشرة يعني تدل على أن هذا منهم لأن الأرواح جنود مجندة ما تعارف منها ائتلف و ما تناكر منها اخت
Love, sitting together and living together are evidence that this one is from them because the souls are Junuudun Mujannadah whichever one knows each other they will unite and whichever ones dislike each other they will seperate.
(3) If we look at the places where the da’wah Us Salafeeyah spread in this time, especially Yemen, we see that Ahlus Sunnah held on to the fundamentals of this methodology of staying away from the people of innovation and desires. And when they did so Allah gave them success.
و قد سئل الشيخ مقبل ـ رحمه الله ـ فـي هذا المجلس ، كــان عندي : كيف انتشرت الدعوة السلفية عندكم في اليمن، ما السبب؟
قال : السبب التميز ، لأنا تميزنا عن أهل البدع فنشر الله السنة.
و ذكر مثلاً: أن واحدا من أهل البدع جـاء إلى مسجد يتكلم فيه ؛ فخرج كل من فيه ـ يعني هُجرانا له و إهانة له ـ .
يعني تشبعوا بالسنة ، و عرفوا قدرها و عرفوا شـناعة البدع و ما تنطوي عليه من الشرور.
فـكان ـ يا إخوة ـ تميز أهل السنة عن الأحزاب و أهل البدع كان سببا عظيما لانتـشار السنة ، و الامتزاج و الاختلاط يكون بالعكس سببا لتغلب البدع و أهلها على السنة و أهلها؛ فتنتشر البدع.
أسأل الله أن يثبتنا و إيـاكم على السنة و يجعلنا عاملين بها و الموالين فيها المعادون من أجلها. نعم “.

Lost are those who are impatient in giving this da’wah and compromise principles thinking that it would bring good. However, good only comes with patience and standing firm upon the book of Allah and the Sunnah not by compromising and watering down the fundamentals.
There are also Fatawa and statements from the major scholars. This is what Shaikh Rabee’ Ibn Hadi Al Madkhali had to say.
سؤال : هل من نصيحة يا شيخ إلى من يذهب إلى مجالس أهل الأهواء وحضور محاضراتهم والسلام عليهم لكي يتأكد مما يقولون ويجادلهم ...الصغار ؟
َQuestion: Is there any advice oh Shaikh for the one who goes to the sittings of the people of desires and attends their lectures and gives them Salaams in order to make sure of what they are saying and debate with them?
الجواب : هذا غالبا يذهب يصبح حزبي إما للتبليغ أو طائفة صوفية أو طائفة رافضية أو جهمية ,لابد هذا الصنف يعاقبهم الله عز وجل لأنهم خالفوا هدي محمد عليه الصلاة والسلام وتوجيهاته وخالفوا هدي السلف وغامروا بدينهم فهؤلاء غالبا ما يضيعون ويلتحقون بأحزاب الشر ,ابن عقيل جبل من الجبال في الذكاء والعمق والعلم نصحوه أن لا يذهب مع المعتزلة ذهب إليهم فصار معتزليا ,أبو ذرّ من تلاميذ الدارقطني إمام في السنة ؛سمع كلمة أخذته راح فصار أشعريا ,عبد الرزاق جالس جعفر ابن سليمان الضبعي جالسه وعنده تشيّع فانتقل ؛ذهب إلى التشيع والتفت إليه فأصبح المسكين من الشيعة ,لكن تشيعه ليس غليظا ,لا نظلمه لكن وقع وتأثر.
The answer: At most times such a person becomes a Hizbee (partisan), either a Tableegh, or from the sects of the Sufis, or the sects of the Rafidees or the sects of the Jahmeeyah. For such people it is a must that Allah takes them to task because they have conflicted the guidance of Muhammad صلى الله عليه و سلم and what he directed toward and they have conflicted the guidance of the Salaf and has fought their religion. Those people usually are not left alone and become members of evil groups. Ibn ‘Aqeel who was a mountains from the mountains of intelligence and in depth thought and knowledge was advised not to go with the Mu’tazilah but he went to them and became a Mu’tazilee. Abu Tharr who was from the students of Daraqutni and Imam of the Sunnah heard a speech that took him away and became an Ashari. Abdur Razzaq sat with Ja’far Ibn Sulaiman Ad Dib’ee and he had Shi’ism with him then he changed. He went to Shi’ism and looked at it then the poor fellow ended up Shi’ah. But his Shi’ism wasn’t extreme, we do not oppress him but there were the remnants of it.
فالذي يجالس أهل الباطل لا بدّ أن يتأثر رغم أنفه ,مهما ادعى لنفسه لابدّ أن يتأثر لأنّ الرسول الصادق المصدوق عليه الصلاة والسلام حذّر وقال : (إنما مثل الجليس الصالح وجليس السوء كحامل المسك ونافخ الكير ,فحامل المسك إما أن يحذيك وإما أن تبتاع منه وإما أن تجد منه ريحا طيبة ,ونافخ الكير إما أن يحرق ثيابك وإما أن تجد منه ريحا خبيثة) يعني الجليس الصالح ما شاء الله له ثلاث حالات كلها خير :فإما أن يحذيك ويقدم لك هدية تفضل ؛طيّبك ؛يقدم لك علبة ؛يعطيك وإما أن تبتاع منه أي تشتري منه ؛استفدت منه وهذا خير لم تشتري خمرا ولا شيئا محرما بل اشتريت شيئا طيبا يحبه الله عز وجل مطلوب منك في الصلاة ,مطلوب منك عند دخول المساجد فهذا استفدت منه ,وإما تجد منه ريحا طيبة وهذا خير
Hence the one who sits with the people of falsehood must be affected by it even if he would like to refuse. However he sees himself he must be affected because the Messenger who is the truthful and one who has been deemed truthful (by Allah) صلى الله عليه و سلم said: “Verily the example of a good companions and an evil companions is like the one who carries perfume and the blacksmith, for the one who carried perfume it is either he puts it on you or you buy it from him or you find from him a good scent, and the blacksmith is one who either burns your clothing or you find from him an evil smell.” Meaning that the good companions by the will of Allah has three conditions all of them being good. It is either he gives you something and gives you a gift and tells you to go ahead, this is your perfume, he presents to you ‘Ulbah (a type of perfume) and gives you. Or you buy it from him, you benefited from him and this good. You didn’t buy alcohol or anything Haraam but you bought something good that Allah loves and desires from you in prayer. It is desired from you also when one enters the Masjid, you benefited from him, or that you find from him a good scent and this is good.
وجليس السوء كنافخ الكير إما أن يحرق ثيابك وإما أن تجد منه ريحا منتنة يمكن يصيبك بسرطان أو مرض أو أي شيء والعياذ بالله
And the evil companion is like a blacksmith. It is either he burns your clothing or that you find from him an unbearable scent that can result in you getting worms or being sick or anything else other than that and Allah’s refuge is sought.
فجليس السوء لابدّ أن ينالك منه سوء وشر , ( والمرء على دين خليله فلينظر أحدكم من يخالل ) (الأخلاء يومئذ بعضهم لبعض عدو إلا المتقين ) أهل الأهواء والبدع ليسوا من هؤلاء ,عندك الآيات ولأحاديث تحذّر وأنت تقول : لا أمشي ,من أعطاك العصمة ؛إذا كان الرسول عليه الصلاة والسلام يحذّر الصحابة والسلف كانوا أئمة مثل الجبال يسدون آذانهم ولا يريدون أن يسمعوا لأهل البدع .
For the evil companion must have an evil effect on you, “And a man is upon the religion of his friends so let him look at those whom he befriends.” “Companions on that day would be enemies to each other except for the believers.” The people of innovation and desires are not of them (the believers), you have verses and Ahadeeth that warn against this, and you say: No, I am still going, who gave you protection? If it is that that the Messenger صلى الله عليه و سلم warned the companions and the Salaf we leaders like mountains and they used to cover their ears not desiring to hear the people of innovation.
أما أنك تذهب وتزوره وتحضر المحاضرات يصيبك من شرره ومن دخانه ومن نفثه
As for you, you go and you visit him and you are present for lectures then his evil and smoke and whispers will fall upon you.
نحن جربنا كثيرا ,جربنا الكثير ؛أكثر من ثلاثين سنة نحن مجربين ,هؤلاء المغرورون ضاعوا وتاهوا ,نهايتهم محتومة ؛يضيعون نسأل الله العافية ؛مهما بلغ من الذكاء فإنّ الله يعاقبه ,نقول له : ذكاءك لا ينفعك! لا بد أن تبذل الأسباب في حماية هذا الدين الذي أعطاك الله وتحافظ عليه ,هذه نعمة لا تلعب فيها .
We have experienced much, we have experienced much, more than thirty years we have experiences. Those who have fooled themselves became wasted and went astray. Their end is inescapable, they become wastes we ask Allah for his mercy. Whatever level of intelligence he has reached verily Allah takes him to task, we say to him: Your intelligence is of no benefit! It is a must that you take the means to safeguard the religion that Allah has given you, and to protect it, this is a blessing that you don’t play with.
الآن من ترون من الحزبيين – في هذه البلاد - كلهم أصلهم سلفيين في هذه البلاد ؛كلهم ضاعوا بسبب المخالطة والمعاشرة والقراءة والسماع لأهل الأهواء ,كل من ترونه الآن ويقال عنهم فلان حزبي وفلان حزبي ...كلهم ما ضاعوا إلا بهذه الوسيلة ,يأخذون بهذه النظرية : ( آخذ الحق وأترك الباطل ) فيأخذ الباطل ويترك الحق ويصبح عدوا للحق حربا على أهله !
At this time those who you see from the partisans- in this country- their basis was all Salafi. Every last one of them became wastes because of their mixing, and living with, and reading (the books) and listening to the people of desires. Everyone you see now and it is said about him so and so is Hizbee so and so is Hizbee… everyone of them did not become wastes except by this means,they take it through this idea ( I will take the truth and leave the falsehood) and he take the falsehood and leaves the truth and becomes an enemy to the truth who is in war with those upon the truth.

وقَولُه : ( وقال الفضيل بن عياض : لا تجلس مع صاحب بدعة ، فإنَّي أخاف عليك أن تنـزل عليك اللعنة ) أقول هذا من الزجر عن مجالسة أهل البدع ، فإنَّه لا يؤمن أن تنـزل عليهم اللعنة بسبب بدعهم ، فيكون من حضر معهم من أهل السنة له نصيبٌ من تلك اللعنة كما أنَّ من حضر مجالس الخير ، ومجالس السنة ، ومجالس الحق ، من حضر هذه المجالس فإنَّ له نصيبٌ من خيرها

In the Name of Allaah, Ar-Rahmaan, Ar-Raheem... On the authority of Ahmad az-Zahraanee (may Allaah preserve him and bless him), Shaykh Rabee' ibn Haadee al-Madkhalee (may Allaah preserve him and bless him) said, when asked about Ahmad Baazmool in comparison to 'Alee al-Halabee: أحمد بازمول عالِمٌ دَرَسَ الحديثَ والعقيدةَ والفقهَ على علماء ومؤصِّلُ تأصيلٍ علميٍّ ودكتور في الجامعة ، ولو لَمْ يَرُدَّ على عليٍّ الحلبيِّ لَرَدَدْتُ أنا عليه لكنَّه كَفَانِي "...Ahmad Baazmool is an 'aalim who studied Hadeeth, 'Aqeedah, and Fiqh under the scholars, well-grounded in knowledge, a doctor in the university. Had he not refuted 'Alee al-Halabee, I would have done so myself. However, he has sufficed me..." This is in light of claims that Shaykh Ahmad Baazmool has preceded the scholars with his open refutations and warnings against 'Alee al-Halabee.

The Ruling on Listening to Unknown Speakers?
Benefit: The Ruling on Listening to Unknown Speakers?
Shaykh Falaah Ismaa’eel al-Mandakar
| What is the Ruling on Listing to Unknown Speakers and Taking Knowledge from them?ما حكم سماع أشرطة المجاهيل وأخذ العلم عنهم؟ Bismillah al-hamdulillaah wa salaatu wa salaam ‘alaa rasoolillaah wa ‘alaa aalihi wa sahbihi wa man tabi’a hudaahu wa bad. The trails of today are very many. Innovations and mixing up innovators with the people of the sunnah and their outward call to the sunnah and salafiyyah is wide spread, for this reason one should be cautious. ‘Abdullaah ibn ‘Abbaas used to say, if a man said ‘I heard the Messenger of Allaah (sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) or the Messenger of Allaah (sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said, we (used to) rush to him and went out to seek him, listening to him, but when the fitnah occurred they began asking about the men (who were narrating the knowledge) like how Ibn Seereen mentioned “we said: name to us your men” meaning they were known by whom they narrated from. So from there they would know if they would listen and accept or refuse and not listen. If that was the case in that time, then our time has more priority. It is a must that one determines and limits those whom he listens to, and from whom he reads from, and who he takes from, and (the works he) issues, and also who he sits with, this is very important. As for being a haatib layl (one who gathers wood at nigh i.e. blindly, heedlessly), listing to everyone and those who are unknown. No, it is feared that a trail will befall this one. Surely from the signs of success from Allaah and wanting good for his slave, it is uprightness and guidance that he helps him to sit, mix with and take from the people of the Sunnah. It is obligatory to have seriousness and diligence towards seeking out that which brings about success and guidance from Allaah, and Allah is the one who grants success. بسم الله والحمدلله والصلاة والسلام على رسول الله وعلى آله وصحبه ومن تبع هداه وبعد ، الفتن اليوم كثيرة جدا, والبدع كثيرة جدا, وتلبس المبتدعة بأهل السنة وإعلانهم للسنة والسلفية كثير جدا؛ لذلك ينبغي الحذر. وإذا كان عبدالله بن عباس يذكر أنهم كانوا إذا قال رجل : سمعت رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم, أو قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم , ابتدرناه ،يبادرونه, يشرئبون إليه, يسمعون منه ، لكن لما وقعت الفتنة صاروا يسألون عن الرجال كما ذكر ابن سيرين: (قلنا : سموا لنا رجالكم). أي يعرفون عمن ينقلون, ومن ثم من خلال النقلة يعرفون هل يسمعون ويقبلون,أم يرفضون ولا يسمعون. فهذا إذا كان في ذلك الزمان, ففي زماننا أولى,لابد أن يحدد الإنسان لمن يسمع, ولمن يقرأ, وعمن يأخذ ويصدر, وعند من يجلس, هذا مهم جدا, أما أن يكون حاطب ليل يسمع للجميع وللمجاهيل ,لا,هذا تخشى عليه الفتنة ، وإن من علامات وصور توفيق الله وإرادته بعبده الخير والصلاح والهداية أن يوفقه إلى مجالسة ومخالطة والأخذ عن أهل السنة ، فالواجب الجد والاجتهاد والتحري استجلابا لتوفيق الله وهدايته ، والله الموفق Shaykh Falaah Ismaa’eel al-Mandakar http://www.mandakar.com/FatawaDetails.asp?ID=314 |

| Transcript : Shaykh ‘Ubayd al-Jaabiree Refutes Anwar al-Alack , advises Ummah to refute him with knowledge, boycott him | by Nasrin for everyone |
Bismillaah Al-Hamdulillaah wa salatu wa salaamu ‘ala rasulullaahAmma ba’d
Shaykh ‘Ubayd al-Jaabiree Refutes Anwar al-Alack , advises Ummah to refute him with knowledge, boycott him
To proceed:
Student of Knowledge Hassan as-Somali asked: So these are some of the statements of one of the du’aat. His name is Anwar al-’Awlaki. You will find his statements on his official website. We present them to the noble Shaikh ‘Ubaid ibnu ‘Abdullaah al-Jabiree (hafidhahullaa taa’ala), so he may comment upon them and so we can spread the answers and the comments among the brothers here in America and in England and throughout the West in general.
The first statement, oh our shaikh – may Allaah bless you – [of Anwar al- 'Awlaki's], is the rulers in Arabian Peninsula are playing a central role in the fight against Islam, especially the Aalee Sa’ud family. The Aalee Sa’ud of today are the ‘Abdullaah ibnu Ubai of yesterday. And the second statement [of Anwar al-'Awlaki's] is: May this be the begining of the greatest Jihaad, the Jihaad of the Arabian Peninsula that would free the heart of the Islamic world from the tyrants who are deceiving the Ummah and standing between us and victory. Should I, oh shaikh, mention the third statement as well, or should I suffice with this?
Shaikh ‘Ubaid al-Jabiree responded: Present the third statement.
Student of Knowledge Hassan as-Somali asked: And the third statement of [Anwar al-'Awlaki] is:The Jihad in Somalia should carry on until the last African union soldier leaves the country, and any forces that side with the African union, including the Shareef government become legitimate targets.And Shareef, ya shaikh, is the President who won the recent elections. So what is your comment, ya shaikh, upon these statements, may Allaah bless you.
Answer by Shaikh ‘Ubaid al-Jabiree: In the Name of Allaah, All Praise is for Allaah, and may the peace and salutations of Allaah be upon His slave and Messenger Muhammad, and upon his family and all his companions. The summary of what has become apparent to me from these three statements that you have quoted from a specific forum or specific website for Anwar al-’Awlaki – and this ‘Awlaki proves that the origin of this man is Yemeni – so the essence of what is comprised in these statements from that which is apparent to me are two affairs:
1-
And Jihadu Talab is to mobilize the troops and to dispath the armies and to prepare sufficient equipment in order to fight whosoever is surrounding them from the disbelievers – for the purpose of making the Word of Allaah uppermost. And this is from the special functions of the Muslim ruler. He is the one who can call to such an act and he is the one who sets it up, and he is the one who leads it himself. Or he appoints someone to lead a military detachment for it.
So whoever calls to Jihaad in a general manner, then he is one of two men: he is either ignorant concerning the fiqh of Jihaad, or he is a person of desires who is misguided and misguiding others – an innovator. And regardless of whether he is from the former or the latter, it is obligatory upon the Ummah to be cautious of him and to have hatred for him, and it is obligatory upon the scholars to refute him and to warn against him.
The second [kind of Jihaad] is Jihaadu Dafi` (Defensive Jihaad), and it is to defend against the assailant and the transgressor. So when an assailant and a transgressor from the disbelievers attacks the Muslim country, then it is permissible for the people of that country to defend themselves and to resist the attack in order to stop its evil and disprove its deception. And it is a required condition that they must have the ability and the strength to do this. So if they have the ability and the strength, they can mobilize themselves to defend against the subjegation of the transgressing party and to defeat its [enemy's] endeavor and to reject its tryanny.
And if they do not have the ability and the strength for that, then they have two choices: they can either flee with their religion and their honor to wherever they will be safe or they can seek a treaty of peace with this tyrannical enemy, and they can make contracts and agreements with him to preserve and safeguard the territory of the people of al-Islam. So it is concluded from this that the required condition for Jihadu Talab (Offensive Jihaad) is the ruler, since it is from his special functions, and the required condition for Jihaadu Dafi` (Defensive Jihaad) is the strength and ability to carry it out. And strength and ability are necessary for both of these acts in order to defeat the endeavor of the enemies of Allaah.
2- The second affair that has become apparent from the first two statements is that the man [al-'Awlaki] harbors resentment against the Arabian Peninsula, and he harbors resentment against the rulers from Aalee Sa’ud. And due to this, he has described them with kufr (disbelief) or nifaq (hypocrisy), or both of them. And the crime of Aalee Sa’ud – according to this one ['Awlaki] and his likes from the people of desires and splitting and the Khawarij – is that their nation state [Saudia Arabia] is a nation state of Tawheed and the Sunnah. Every person of the Sunnah testifies to this, and their nation state has been the flag bearer of Tawheed and the Sunnah since its inception at the hands of Al-Imaam Muhammad ibn Sa’ud (rahimahullaah), since it gives victory to Tawheed and the Sunnah.
Ash-Shaikh Muhammad ibn ‘Abdul-Wahhab (rahimahullaah) called to Tawheed and the Sunnah, and the ameer Muhammad ibn Sa’ud used to aid him and defend him, and he used to defend his da’wah. And the fruit of that effort was that Allaah made this righteous Imam – the Mujaahid – strong and influential due to his raising the flag of Tawheed and the Sunnah. I deem him as such, and Allaah is his Reckoner. From the fruits of this da’wah was the establishment of a mighty nation state. It has taken on the burden of establishing the religion. And there is no person of Sunnah except that his heart is with this Dawla (nation state), and likewise it has taken on the political and economic burden. So these are all fruits of aiding Tawheed and the Sunnah.
And the Khawarij in every time and place have always had enmity toward Ahlus-Sunnah – the rulers and their subjects, because Ahlus-Sunnah are from the farthest of people from at-takfeer, let alone tabdee` (declaring someone an innovator) and tafseeq (declaring someone a disobedient sinner), except with a proof that obligates takfeer or tabdee` or tafseeq of the opponent. And this is known to those who are familiar with the history of Ahlus-Sunnah and their written works. However, the one who has been overwhelmed by malice, and desire has become deep-rooted within him, then he opposes Ahlus-Sunnah and displays enmity towards them.
This is what I like to make note of and I ask Allaahu subhanahu wa taa’ala to keep the people of al-Islaam away from every evil and detestable thing and to withhold from them the evil of the Khawarij, whether they are the Khawarij who sit and incite others to khurooj (rebellion against the rulers) or whether they are the ones who carry it out themselves, and that Allaah keeps the misery of the Khawarij among their ownselves and that He allows the Muslims to see a lesson in them and that He seizes those Khawarij with a mighty and strong seizure and that He makes them a lesson for those who take heed.
And may the peace and salutations of Allaah be upon our Prophet Muhammad and his family and all his companions. This was dictated by the one in need of Allaah, ‘Ubayd ibnu ‘Abdullaah ibnu Sulaimaan al-Jabiree, a former professor at the Islamic University of al-Madinah. The date of this discussion was Wednesday night, 23rd of Dhul-Qi’dah, 1430 Hijri, corresponding to the 11th of November, 2009.
And the Tawfeeq (success) is with Allaah. And may the peace and salutations of Allaah be upon our Prophet Muhammad and his family and all his companions.

Shaykh ‘Ubayd al-Jaabiree Refutes Anwar al-Alack , advises Ummah to refute him with knowledge, boycott him
The Praise is for Allaah, and may the peace and salutations of Allaah be upon the Messenger of Allaah and upon his family and his companions and upon all those who follow the guidance.
quote:
In the aftermath of the heinous shooting at Fort Hood in Texas, the shooter’s and other Khaarijee (renegades’) connection to Anwar al-’Awlaki has come to light, especially in the Western media. ‘Awlaki is the common denominator in many of the recent terrorist acts and attempts that have recently occurred. ‘Awlaki is not one to carry out such attacks himself, rather he incites and inspires young ignorant Muslims to commit such crimes in the name of Islam. So the noble Scholar of Madinah, Saudi Arabia, Shaykh ‘Ubayd Ibn ‘Abdullaah al-Jaabiree has delivered this warning against al-’Awlaki. The Shaykh was presented with three of al-’Awlaki’s statements that impy mass takfeer of the Muslims and the Shaykh goes on to reply to these falsehoods. The Shaykh also hit the nail on the head when he said that al-’Awlaki has become polluted with the ideas of Sayyid Qutb, who is undoubtedly the catalyst for the modern-day acts of terrorism committed in the name of Islam.
To proceed:
Student of Knowledge Hassan as-Somali asked: So these are some of the statements of one of the du’aat. His name is Anwar al-’Awlaki. You will find his statements on his official website. We present them to the noble Shaikh ‘Ubaid ibnu ‘Abdullaah al-Jabiree (hafidhahullaa taa’ala), so he may comment upon them and so we can spread the answers and the comments among the brothers here in America and in England and throughout the West in general.
The first statement, oh our shaikh – may Allaah bless you – [of Anwar al- 'Awlaki's], is the rulers in Arabian Peninsula are playing a central role in the fight against Islam, especially the Aalee Sa’ud family. The Aalee Sa’ud of today are the ‘Abdullaah ibnu Ubai of yesterday. And the second statement [of Anwar al-'Awlaki's] is: May this be the begining of the greatest Jihaad, the Jihaad of the Arabian Peninsula that would free the heart of the Islamic world from the tyrants who are deceiving the Ummah and standing between us and victory. Should I, oh shaikh, mention the third statement as well, or should I suffice with this?
Shaikh ‘Ubaid al-Jabiree responded: Present the third statement.
Student of Knowledge Hassan as-Somali asked: And the third statement of [Anwar al-'Awlaki] is:The Jihad in Somalia should carry on until the last African union soldier leaves the country, and any forces that side with the African union, including the Shareef government become legitimate targets.And Shareef, ya shaikh, is the President who won the recent elections. So what is your comment, ya shaikh, upon these statements, may Allaah bless you.
Answer by Shaikh ‘Ubaid al-Jabiree: In the Name of Allaah, All Praise is for Allaah, and may the peace and salutations of Allaah be upon His slave and Messenger Muhammad, and upon his family and all his companions. The summary of what has become apparent to me from these three statements that you have quoted from a specific forum or specific website for Anwar al-’Awlaki – and this ‘Awlaki proves that the origin of this man is Yemeni – so the essence of what is comprised in these statements from that which is apparent to me are two affairs:
1-
And al-Jihaad according to Ahlus-Sunnah – who have inherited from Prophet Muhammad (salallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) the correct understanding of the Deen, the correct understanding of‘ibaadah (worship), and the correct understanding of social dealings – is of two categories: Jihadu Talab (Offensive Jihaad) and Jihaadu Dafi` (Defensive Jihaad).
quote:
The first affair is his ignorance concerning the fiqh(understanding) of Jihaad, and he has no knowledge concerning the Jihaad which is from the well-planned obligations that Allaah has established up until Allaah causes the earth and whosoever is upon it to perish. And I suspect that the man has become polluted by the ideas of Sayyid Qutb, al Misree (the Egyptian). And similiar to him are Abu Qatad and Abu Muhammad al-Maqdisee and many others besides them. So all of these individuals and this man have been influenced by the likes of Sayyid Qutb. According to the people of research and experience with examining statements, Sayyid Qutb is the flag-bearer of takfeer in this time. And his book Ma’aalim fi Tareek (translated as "Milestones") proves this clearly. So this Sayyid [Qutb] has declared the entire Ummah kufaar, falsely. The rulers and their subjects.
And Jihadu Talab is to mobilize the troops and to dispath the armies and to prepare sufficient equipment in order to fight whosoever is surrounding them from the disbelievers – for the purpose of making the Word of Allaah uppermost. And this is from the special functions of the Muslim ruler. He is the one who can call to such an act and he is the one who sets it up, and he is the one who leads it himself. Or he appoints someone to lead a military detachment for it.
So whoever calls to Jihaad in a general manner, then he is one of two men: he is either ignorant concerning the fiqh of Jihaad, or he is a person of desires who is misguided and misguiding others – an innovator. And regardless of whether he is from the former or the latter, it is obligatory upon the Ummah to be cautious of him and to have hatred for him, and it is obligatory upon the scholars to refute him and to warn against him.
The second [kind of Jihaad] is Jihaadu Dafi` (Defensive Jihaad), and it is to defend against the assailant and the transgressor. So when an assailant and a transgressor from the disbelievers attacks the Muslim country, then it is permissible for the people of that country to defend themselves and to resist the attack in order to stop its evil and disprove its deception. And it is a required condition that they must have the ability and the strength to do this. So if they have the ability and the strength, they can mobilize themselves to defend against the subjegation of the transgressing party and to defeat its [enemy's] endeavor and to reject its tryanny.
And if they do not have the ability and the strength for that, then they have two choices: they can either flee with their religion and their honor to wherever they will be safe or they can seek a treaty of peace with this tyrannical enemy, and they can make contracts and agreements with him to preserve and safeguard the territory of the people of al-Islam. So it is concluded from this that the required condition for Jihadu Talab (Offensive Jihaad) is the ruler, since it is from his special functions, and the required condition for Jihaadu Dafi` (Defensive Jihaad) is the strength and ability to carry it out. And strength and ability are necessary for both of these acts in order to defeat the endeavor of the enemies of Allaah.
2- The second affair that has become apparent from the first two statements is that the man [al-'Awlaki] harbors resentment against the Arabian Peninsula, and he harbors resentment against the rulers from Aalee Sa’ud. And due to this, he has described them with kufr (disbelief) or nifaq (hypocrisy), or both of them. And the crime of Aalee Sa’ud – according to this one ['Awlaki] and his likes from the people of desires and splitting and the Khawarij – is that their nation state [Saudia Arabia] is a nation state of Tawheed and the Sunnah. Every person of the Sunnah testifies to this, and their nation state has been the flag bearer of Tawheed and the Sunnah since its inception at the hands of Al-Imaam Muhammad ibn Sa’ud (rahimahullaah), since it gives victory to Tawheed and the Sunnah.
Ash-Shaikh Muhammad ibn ‘Abdul-Wahhab (rahimahullaah) called to Tawheed and the Sunnah, and the ameer Muhammad ibn Sa’ud used to aid him and defend him, and he used to defend his da’wah. And the fruit of that effort was that Allaah made this righteous Imam – the Mujaahid – strong and influential due to his raising the flag of Tawheed and the Sunnah. I deem him as such, and Allaah is his Reckoner. From the fruits of this da’wah was the establishment of a mighty nation state. It has taken on the burden of establishing the religion. And there is no person of Sunnah except that his heart is with this Dawla (nation state), and likewise it has taken on the political and economic burden. So these are all fruits of aiding Tawheed and the Sunnah.
And the Khawarij in every time and place have always had enmity toward Ahlus-Sunnah – the rulers and their subjects, because Ahlus-Sunnah are from the farthest of people from at-takfeer, let alone tabdee` (declaring someone an innovator) and tafseeq (declaring someone a disobedient sinner), except with a proof that obligates takfeer or tabdee` or tafseeq of the opponent. And this is known to those who are familiar with the history of Ahlus-Sunnah and their written works. However, the one who has been overwhelmed by malice, and desire has become deep-rooted within him, then he opposes Ahlus-Sunnah and displays enmity towards them.
So how astonishing is it that America let this man remain therein? Yet it [America] raises its voice to say it opposes terrorism, and when we hear about such people we say that they are Khawarij, since this man and his likes are the terrorists as the Europeans and the Americans and the Western people in general. And I think that even the non-Muslims from the people of the East like Russia have labelled them with this title. So they in reality are the instruments of terrorism, and they are the river from which the Khawarij draw out what they draw out from attacking the people of Islam and the Sunnah, and for attacking those with whom we have contracts and treaties. Since these ones do not recognize any contract or treaty, they only declare people disbelievers en masse.
quote:
So it is not strange that al-’Awlaki should take this path since he has a predecessor and he himself is from the later followers. And from here, I warn the Muslims firstly against this man [al-'Awlaki] and I call upon them to boycott him and to sever ties with him and to refute him with a knowledge-based refutation that will expose his da’wah and reveal his true condition, and show that he is an enemy to the people of Islam and the Sunnah.And this refutation must show that he [al-'Awlaki] and his likes are from those who have disfigured the image of Islam and the image of the people of Islam to the extent that they have driven those who do not possess intellect from the Jews and the Christians to attack the personality of the Messenger of Allaah (salallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) and they have degraded the mushaf. Due to their lack of intellect and their lack of knowledge of Islam and its people, they think that Anwar al-’Awlaki and his predecessors and his contemporaries represent the people of Islam and they think that this path of theirs is the true path of the people of Islam. And that the attack against the owners and the wealth and the lives, and nullifying the contracts and ratified treaties between our rulers and the rest of the non-Muslim nation states of the world, such as those of Europe and America, then those feeble-minded fools and those who have been deprived of justice and fairness, they think that this is the Islam that we practice.
This is what I like to make note of and I ask Allaahu subhanahu wa taa’ala to keep the people of al-Islaam away from every evil and detestable thing and to withhold from them the evil of the Khawarij, whether they are the Khawarij who sit and incite others to khurooj (rebellion against the rulers) or whether they are the ones who carry it out themselves, and that Allaah keeps the misery of the Khawarij among their ownselves and that He allows the Muslims to see a lesson in them and that He seizes those Khawarij with a mighty and strong seizure and that He makes them a lesson for those who take heed.
And may the peace and salutations of Allaah be upon our Prophet Muhammad and his family and all his companions. This was dictated by the one in need of Allaah, ‘Ubayd ibnu ‘Abdullaah ibnu Sulaimaan al-Jabiree, a former professor at the Islamic University of al-Madinah.

Salafee Condemnation of the Ft Hood Shooting... 0 Minutes ago | |
Salafee Condemnation of the Fort Hood Shooting and a Disavowal of Anwar al-Awlaki Audio: www.sunnahaudio.com/modules. Abul-Hasan Maalik Ibn Aadam Abul-Hasan Maalik covers various points of benefit concerning the Fort Hood shootings and the resulting aftermath. Specifically, he makes mention of the comments of Jarrett Brachman on National Public Radio that Anwar al-Awlaki follows, "the hard line understanding of Islam known as Salafism," during a discussion about Nidal Hasan Malik's correspondence with al-Awlaki prior to the shootings. Abul-Hasan clarifies that Salafism (i.e. Salafiyyah) is free from such acts and ideologies. He translates from the monumental book, al-Irhaab of Shaykh Zayd Ibn Muhammad al-Madkhalee - a Saudi Salafee Scholar - refuting the ideology that the likes of al-Awlaki follows. He then goes onto clarify the correct Islamic position on Jihaad from the book of Shaykh 'Abdul-Maalik Ramadaanee - another Salafee Shaykh based in Madinah, Saudi Arabia. He also reads from Ramadaanee's replies to the extremists who falsely declare Jihaad against the Muslim governments and carry out acts of terrorism under this fraudulent banner. From the most noteworthy points that Shaykh 'Abdul-Maalik mentions and for which he brings textual proofs from the authentic sources is that Jihaad, like everything else in Islaam must be established with condition - none of which have been fulfilled by al-Awlaki and his likes, nor do they even endeavour to fulfill the conditions of Jihaad before using its label as a tool for their bloodthirsty undertakings. Abul-Hasan reads from the essay of Shaykh Ahmad Ibn Yahyaa an-Najmee, as-Salafiyyoon Baree`oon minal-A'maalil-Irhaabiyyah (The Salafees are Innocent of the Terrorist Acts), in which he clarifies the position of Salafism (i.e. Salafiyyah) towards terrorist acts of September 11th 2001 or otherwise. Not only is Salafism innocent of such crimes, but it is also no the Salafis who are responsible for such atrocities. Rather, it is the followers of Sayyiq Qutb - like al-Awlaki who incite ignorant young Muslims to these crimes. Rather, Shaykh Ahmad - another Saudi Salafee Scholar - brings the many narrations that guarantee the Muslim a reward for killing the Khawaarij (renegades) because of the indiscriminate killings they carry out among the Muslims and non-Muslims. In fact, this noble Scholar of Islaam reminds us of how the Prophet Muhammad (sallallahu 'alayhi wa sallam) described these Khawaarij as dogs of Hell. So how could anyone associate them with the Salafees who follow the Qur`aan and the Sunnah with the understanding of the early Muslims before the Khawaarij and the terrorists came and began to use verses of the Qur`aan with their own interpretation for their own ulterior motives!? Perhaps what is most interesting of what Shaykh Ahmad an-Najmee mentions is that it is the followers of Sayyid Qutb and the Muslim Brotherhood (i.e. Ikhwaanul-Muslimoon) who accuse the Salafees of these crimes whilst their own followers carry out these crimes. And since the beginning of these phenomenon of terrorism coming out in the name of Islaam, it has been the Salafee Scholars who have been most outspoken against Usamah Bin Laden and other terrorists and acts of terrorism! Abul-Hasan brings the speech of Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Haadee al-Madkhalee - another Saudi Salafee Scholar - who showed the history of the Muslim youth who were brought up in Saudi Arabia upon Salafism, but they only learnt this terrorist ideology once they left for Afghanistan and other places and encountered the ideologies of the likes of Sayyid Qutb (k.1966CE), Usamah Bin Laden, Ayman az-Zawahiri and others. Abul-Hasan brings the speech of al-Haafidh Ibn Hajr (d.852H) about the Qa'diyyah (those who incite others to rebellion against the Muslim rulers and remain back from their own perceived 'Jihaad'), and he brings the speech of Imaam Muhammad Ibn Saalih al-'Uthaymeen (d.1421H) - yet another Saudi Salafee Scholar - in condemnation of this evil methodology. Abul-Hasan also demonstrates how the Salafees in America were warning the Muslims from the Arabic institutes in Virginia, with whom al-Awlaki has been affiliated, back in the 1990s - over a decade ago! So how could anyone associate the Salafees with al-Awlaki and his supporters in the United States! He goes onto reply to some of the ignorant statements from the deviant callers to Islam in America, such as Jamaal Zarabozo saying Islaam being spread by the sword and Abu Muslimah saying that Jihaad was the da'wah (call) of the first Muslims. And Abul-Hasan ends with the advice of Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Saalih al-'Uthaymeen (d.1421H) - another Salafee Scholar - who has advised Muslims who live in western lands to live there in peace and to obey the laws of those lands as long as those laws do not obligate upon the Muslim to go against his or her Religion. Perhaps this impassioned reminder will cause those possessing fairness, justice and intellect to take heed! | |

| From alteration of the religion is the following of one scholar (only) and dissociation from the other scholars of adherence to the prophetic methodology | by Nasrin for everyone |
بسم الله الرحمان الرحيم
"From alteration of the religion is the following of one scholar (only) and dissociation from the other scholars of adherence to the prophetic methodology"
Verily, Allah has commanded, with His legislation and in the guidance of His Messenger every individual who isn't a scholar to refer their affairs back to the scholars of Islam.
فاسألوا أهل الذكر إن كنتم لا تعلمون
"So ask Ahli-dhikr if you don't know." [An- Nahl:43]
و لو ردوه إلى الرسول و إلى أولي الأمر منهم لعلمه الذين يستنبطونه منهم
"If only they had referred it to the Messenger or to those charged with authority among them, the proper investigators would have understood it from them." [An Nisa:83]
Therefore consulting the scholars of the Book and the Sunnah both past and present is a legislative requirement. So whoever is content with referring back to one scholar regardless if he's from those who have preceded us or someone contemporary then indeed he has altered what Allah has made obligatory upon him. Also he has wronged the other scholars in that there is no acceptance of what they say with him.
Furthermore, he has fell into exaggeration with that particular scholar in that he has raised him to the level of the Prophet عليه الصلاة و السلام. This is due to the fact that it's well known that no one from the creation is followed with absolute adherence except the Messenger of Allah عليه الصلاة و السلام.
The scholar of Islam Ibn Taimiyyah said: "In contrary to those who follow a particular scholar they are those who congregate upon a mistake. In fact, every statement they make that wasn't stated by other than them from amongst the imaams can not be anything except a mistake. Verily, the religion in which Allah sent His Messenger with has not been handed over to one scholar and those that follow him. If that were the case then this individual would be equal to the Messenger and would resemble the claims of the shia regarding their infallible imaam."

Unite upon that which we agree, and excuse each other in that which we disagree
Shaykh ‘Abdul-’Azeez Ibn Baaz was asked about the correctness of the saying: "We should unite upon that which we agree, and excuse each other in that which we disagree." The Shaykh commented:
"Yes! It is obligatory to co-operate in that which we agree, by aiding the truth, calling to it and warning against that which Allaah and His Messenger sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam have prohibited. Its for excusing each other for that in which we differ – then this is not to be taken in an absolute sense, but rather in a general one. Thus, if the difference involves a particular issue of ijtihaad wherein the proofs are deep and detailed – then it is obligatory not to reproach or censure one another. However, if it opposes a clear text of the Book and the Sunnah, then it is obligatory to correct the one who has opposed the clear texts, but with wisdom, beautiful admonition and debating in the best possible manner, acting upon Allaah -the Most High’s – saying: "And help you one another in righteousness and piety, but do not help one another in sin and transgression."[Soorah al-Maa'idah 5:2] And His – the Most Perfect’s – saying: "The Believers – man and woman – are protectors to each other, they order the good and forbid the evil … " [Soorah at-Towbah 9:71]. And His – the Mighty and Majestic’s – saying: "Invite to the way of your Lord with wisdom and beautiful admonition, and argue with them in ways that are better." [Soorah an-Nahl 16:125]. And he sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam said: "Whosoever sees an evil, then let him change it with his hand. If he is unable to do this, then with his tongue, and if he is unable to do this, then with his heart. And that is the weakest of eemaan (faith)." And he sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam said:"Whosoever directs a person to do good, will have a reward similar to the one who does that good."5 And the aayaat (verses) and ahaadeeth with this meaning are plenty."
