Path of the balanced teacher clarified by Al-Allaamah Ubayd Bin Abdillah Al-Jaabiree

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

In The Name of Allah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy.

Al-Allaamah Ubayd Bin Abdillah Al-Jaabiree [may Allah have mercy upon him] stated, “Whoever only teaches people the Sunnah and does not warn against Bidah and its people, then verily with the passing of time affairs will enter amongst the people which are not from the Sunnah, and (subsequently) those who are not of them, from the Mubtadi’ah and people of misguidance, will be hidden amidst them. Also, whoever’s sole concern is warning (against Bidah and Mubtadi’ah) whilst he does not teach the people how to act upon the Sunnah, then there will emerge an ignorant generation that does not know the Sunnah, and they will not have a criterion (between truth and falsehood). Therefore understand and be aware of this! [(1)]
