[7] A Brief Look at Pseudo Researchers in Salafiyyah: [Examination of a Fabricated Quietist Faction Within Salafiyyah Called Mad’khalism]

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

Samura Bin Jundub [may Allah be pleased with him] said: The Prophet [peace and blessings of Allah be upon him] said, “I saw (in a dream), two men came to me.” Then the Prophet narrated the story (saying), “They said, ‘The person, the one whose cheek you saw being torn away (from the mouth to the ear) was a liar and used to tell lies and the people would report those lies on his authority till they spread all over the world. So he will be punished like that till the Day of Resurrection”. [(1)]

The deluded researchers at Wikipedia stated, “The movement has, in essence, been a reaction against the Muslim Brotherhood, rival Sahwa movement as well as the Qutbi movement; Sayyid Qutb, that movement’s figurehead, is considered to be an apostate by Madkhali and his movement”.[End of quote]

They say that this group known as the Mad’khalis (so-called Mad’khalis) was born out of opposition to the Muslim Brotherhood, the rival Sahwa movement, and the Qutbi movement! Indeed, this claim demonstrates the repugnant ignorance of these pseudo-researchers once again, due to the fact that the Kharijite methodology of the “Muslim Brotherhood Sect” and the “Qutbis” emerged during the era of the Sahaabah, and this destructive methodology has always been refuted in both the Books of Aqeedah and the scholars’ discussions regarding the deviant sects in the Ummah. Hafs Bin Humaid [may Allah have mercy upon him] said: I said to Abdullaah Ibnul Mubaarak [may Allah have mercy upon him], “How many sects have this Ummah spilt into?” He said, “The foundation of the sects are four: the Shia, the Harooriyyah (i.e. khawaarij), the Qadariyyah, and the Murji’ah. The Shia (further) split into twenty-two sects, the Hurooriyyah (further) split into twenty-one sects, the Qadariyyah (further) split into sixteen sects and the Murji’ah (further) split into thirteen sects. [(2)]

The above-mentioned deviant sects have been discussed by Ahlus Sunnah, both past and current, and each one is distinct from the others. Must-read articles:

Indeed, contemporary deviant groups and sects have already followed in the footsteps of the early deviant sects, and there is no doubt that Ikhwaan Al-Muslimeen (The Muslim Brotherhood Sect) and the Qutbies have had their fair share of this falsehood and deviation. Articles you should read:

After being acquainted with the knowledge presented above, the seeker of truth will realise that names cannot change reality. Whether a group is called “The Muslim Brotherhood,” “Qutbi,” or “Islamic State (ISIS),” the fact remains that these groups subscribe to and propagate the khawaarij methodology, and scholars have not ceased refuting any group that subscribes to the methodology of any of the deviated sects. So, based on the imaginations of the deluded researchers at Vikipedia and elsewhere, it would be desirable or obligatory to concoct a specific group for every Salafi Scholar who has refuted the ideas of the Qutbies and the Muslim Brotherhood, namely Baazism for Imaam Abdul Azeez Bin Baaz, Fawzaanism for Al-Allamah Saalih Al-Fawzaan, Jaamism for Al-Allamah Muhammad Amaan Al-Jaami, Uthaymism for Imaam Muhammad Ibn Saalih Al-Uthaymeen, Jaabirism for Al-Allamah Ubaid Bin Abdillah Al-Jaabi, Al-Albaanism for Imaam Al-Albaanee, Abbaadism for Al-Allamah Abdul Muhsin Al-Abbaad, Luhaydanism for Al-Allaamah Saalih Al-Luhaydaan, Salihism for Al-Allaamah Salih Aala Ash-Shaikh, Bukhaarism for Shaikh Abdullah Al-Bukhaari, Dhifirism for both Shaikh Khalid Adh-Dhafiri and Shaikh Abdullah Adh-Dhafiri etc. Imagine the response these cretins would receive if they approached Al-Allaamah Saalih Al-Fawzaan or Al-Allaamah Saalih Aala Shaikh and claimed that both of them deserved to be given a group name or that they both deserved to be called Mad’khalists for their writings against the Takfeeris among whom the Qutbis and Muslim Brotherhood Sects are the most active?!

The deluded researchers at Vikipedia say that Mad’khalism (i.e. so-called Mad’khalism) is a reaction against the rival Sahwa movement. Indeed, what must be made known as we stated earlier is that the scholars of Islam – throughout Islamic History – rebut any individual or group that opposes the sound Prophetic path whether in relation to beliefs, acts of worship, politics, enjoining good and forbidding evil, etc. When the Khawaarij first appeared and manifested their misguided zeal for upholding the pure Shariah, the Sahaabah clarified their misguidance. Ubaydullah Ibn Abee Raafi [may Allah have mercy upon him] reported that the Haruriyya (Khawarij) came out against Ali Ibn Abee Taalib [may Allah be pleased with him] and said, “There is no judgement except Allah”. Ali said, “A statement of truth by which is intended falsehood. Verily, Allah’s Messenger [peace and blessings of Allah be upon him] described some people and I recognized their description in these people. They speak the truth with their statements but it does not go beyond this”, then (the narrator) pointed to his throat. [Sahih Muslim 1066]

Ibn Abbas [may Allah be pleased with him and his father] debated with the Khawaawij and said to them, “As for your statement that Ali has appointed men to judge in an affair which only Allah can judge”, I recite to you a judgment given to men in the matter of the price of a rabbit and other hunted animals: “O you who believe! Kill not game while you are in a state of Ihram for Hajj or ‘Umrah (pilgrimage), and whosoever of you kills it intentionally, the penalty is an offering, brought to the Ka’bah, of an eatable animal (i.e. sheep, goat, cow, etc.) equivalent to the one he killed, as adjudged by two just men among you…”. [Surah Al-Maa’idah. Ayah 95] I implore you by Allah, is the judgment of men in hunted animals better or their judgment regarding their lives and reconciliation between them? You know that if Allah had willed, he would have judged himself and not appointed men. Regarding a woman and her husband, Allah Almighty said:

وَإِنْ خِفْتُمْ شِقَاقَ بَيْنِهِمَا فَٱبْعَثُوا۟ حَكَمًا مِّنْ أَهْلِهِۦ وَحَكَمًا مِّنْ أَهْلِهَآ إِن يُرِيدَآ إِصْلَٰحًا يُوَفِّقِ ٱللَّهُ بَيْنَهُمَآ

If you fear dissension between them, send a judge from his family and a judge from her family. If they desire reconciliation, Allah will facilitate it between them. [Surah An-NIsaa. Ayah 35] So, Allah has made the judgment of men an established precedent (based on the final divine revelation – the Qur’an and authentic Sunnah). [As-Sunan Al-Kubraa 15389] [Read here a detailed version of this story: https://islamtees.uk/2012/10/02/the-great-debate-of-ibn-abbas-with-the-khawarij/ ]

Therefore, in order to distinguish between fact and fiction when discussing the Sahwa-Islamic Awakening, one must be familiar with the sound Prophetic approach because it is well-known to the Salafiyyoon that the groups either deviated towards extremism or negligence while in pursuit of revival, so the upright scholars either warn the Muslims in general or refute the deviants. Al-Allaamah Saalih al-Fawzaan [may Allah preserve him] said:

The Islamic Awakening didn’t start in these days or in this era; rather, it began when Allah sent His Prophet with the message of Islam, which the people embraced in large numbers and groups. All the praises and thanks be to Allah, good has not ceased to continue in this Ummah, as the Prophet said, “There will not cease to be a group amongst my Ummah manifest (upon the truth). They will neither be harmed by those who forsake them nor by those who oppose them until the command of Allah come to pass [i.e. the day of judgment] whilst they are upon that”. Although the struggle between truth and falsehood continues, there are still callers to the truth and its helpers–those who follow the correct methodology and rise up to call it. The Ummah has not been all asleep or misguided in (any) era (during) the various eras to the extent that a group arose giving itself a name or the name “Islamic Awakening” because the meaning of this is that the entire Islamic World was misguided before these people (initiated) the awakening. This contradicts the statement of the Prophet “There will not cease to be a group amongst my Ummah manifest upon the truth”, and his statement, “My Ummah will never unite upon misguidance”.

Indeed, when carried out on the basis of the methodology of the righteous callers and that of the pious predecessors- the book of Allah, the Sunnah, and that which the pious predecessors of this Ummah were upon- and far removed from affiliations that are in opposition to the methodology of the pious predecessors, this (revival) is commended and safe from criticism. Its goal should be to become acquainted with the truth in order to act and call for it and to become acquainted with falsehood in order to avoid and warn against it, but its goal cannot be to seek leadership or ascendency in the earth and revolt against the Ja’maa’ah. This is neither the correct Dawah methodology nor that of the pious predecessors; rather, it is the methodology of the Khawaarij and the Mutazilah-those who have deviated from the methodology of the Qur’an, the (authentic) Sunnah’, and the path of the pious predecessors. (They) were a disgrace in Islamic History and a wound in the body of the Ummah. We ask Allah to guide the misguided Muslims to what is correct. [(3)]

All praise and thanks be to Allah, is this clarification by Al-Allaamah Salih Al-Fawzaan, not the identical one given by all scholars who adhere to the correct methodology of the pious forefathers? Yes, certainly, it is the same methodology taught by Imaam Abdul Azeez Bin Baaz, Imaam Muhammad Ibn Saalih al-Uthaymeen, Imaam Al-Albaanee, and al-Allaamah Saalih al-Luhaydaan [may Allah have mercy on them] and others. So, will the cretins and compulsive liars at Wikipedia give Al-Allaamah Saalih Al-Fawzaan the fictitious name Mad’khali because he opposes the Qutbies’ and Muslim Brotherhood’s flawed methodology in their pursuit of revival?!

Finally, the vicious liars at Wikipedia then stated that Al-Allaamah Rabee Bin Haadi Al-Mad’khali declares Sayyid Qutb an apostate:

We challenge Wikipedia’s spiteful, compulsive liars to identify a single unambiguous remark of Al-Allaamah Rabee that demonstrates that he has declared misguided Qutb an apostate (i.e. one who was a Muslim but has been ejected from the fold of Islam). If they do not offer their evidence, we say to them, “May Allah’s curse be upon the liars.”

[6] A Brief Look at Pseudo Researchers in Salafiyyah: [Examination of a Fabricated Quietist Faction Within Salafiyyah Called Mad’khalism]

Written by Abdullah Jallow on February 7, 2024. Posted in Articles, Contemporary Issues, Methodology - 'Manhaj', Morals and Manners - 'Akhlaaq', Refutations.

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

Imam Abu Hatim Ar-Raazee [may Allah have mercy upon him] said, “A sign of the proponents of Bidah is that they speak ill of those who adhere to the authentic narrations of the pious predecessors”. [Aqeedah As-Salaf 105]

The cretins at Wikipedia stated, “Madkhalis, in contrast to members of other groups such as the Muslim Brotherhood and the Islamic State, have been described as very simple men who do not have the same level of intellectual depth and knowledge. As such, they are viewed as less of a threat by their opponents”. [End of quote]

Once again, based on the illusion regarding the existence of a group known as Mad’khalis, the compulsive liars at Wikipedia invented a characteristic for this imaginary group that they claim distinguishes it from two other groups, namely the Islamic State (ISIS) and Ikhwaan Al-Muslimeen (The Muslim Brotherhood).

First, the goal of the cretins at Wikipedia in mentioning these two other groups besides the fictitious Mad’khali group is to merely make a false comparison while purposefully refraining from distinguishing between truth and falsehood because these pseudo researchers approach the subject matter related to the various groups that ascribe to Islam in the same way they seek to compare and distinguish between different ideologies. However, neither they nor the ideologues can hide the fact that ideologies are concocted by men and their proponents do not have an infallible text to judge between them, whereas any disagreement or debate between Muslims as well as others is to be referred back to the infallible final revelation, as Allah says:

وَمَا ٱخْتَلَفْتُمْ فِيهِ مِن شَىْءٍ فَحُكْمُهُۥٓ إِلَى ٱللَّهِ ذَٰلِكُمُ ٱللَّهُ رَبِّى عَلَيْهِ تَوَكَّلْتُ وَإِلَيْهِ أُنِيبُ

And in whatsoever you differ, the decision thereof is with Allah (He is the ruling Judge). (And say O Muhammad to these polytheists:) Such is Allah, my Lord in Whom I put my trust, and to Him, I turn in all of my affairs and in repentance. [Surah Ash-Shuraa. Ayah 10]

The Messenger [peace and blessings of Allah be upon him] said: “Verily he among you who lives long will see a lot of disagreement, so you must adhere to my Sunnah and to the Sunnah of the Khulafa ar-Rashideen [the rightly guided caliphs- AbuBakr, Umar, Uthmaan and Ali]. Cling to it stubbornly [literally: with your molar teeth]. Beware of newly invented matters [in the religion- related to beliefs and acts of worship], for verily every bidah (innovation in the religion) is misguidance. [Hadith 28. (Forty Hadith of An-Nawawi)]

Indeed, nothing remains after the preceding clarification other than to present the reality of the two groups – the “Muslim Brotherhood and Islamic State (ISIS),” and may Allah bless our elder teachers for revealing the reality of these Bidah groups. Read below:

Second, the compulsive liars at Wikipedia said that the Mad’khalis (i.e. so-called adherents to a strain of thought known as Mad’khalism) “Have been described as very simple men who do not have the same level of intellectual depth and knowledge. As such, they are viewed as less of a threat by their opponents”. [End of quote]

In the above claim, the liars desperately attempted to present a fictitious trait of the so-called Mad’khalis, which they say is lack of intellectual depth and knowledge in comparison to other groups. Once again the repugnant ignorance of these pseudo-researchers manifests because the intellect is not the criterion by way of which guidance and misguidance are distinguished in the Sight of Allah, rather, a believer is commanded to adhere to the divine revelation – the Qur’an and the authentic Sunnah. Allah [The Most High] says:

يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لَا تُقَدِّمُوا بَيْنَ يَدَيِ اللَّهِ وَرَسُولِهِ ۖ وَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ ۚ إِنَّ اللَّهَ سَمِيعٌ عَلِيمٌ
يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لَا تَرْفَعُوا أَصْوَاتَكُمْ فَوْقَ صَوْتِ النَّبِيِّ

O you who believe! Do not put (yourselves) forward before Allah and His Messenger, and fear Allah. Verily! Allah is All-Hearing, All-Knowing. O you who believe! Raise not your voices above the voice of the Prophet. [Surah Al-Hujuraat. Ayaat 1-2]

Imaam Ibnul Qayyim [may Allah have mercy upon him] said: When it is the case that Allah forbade us from giving precedence to (ourselves) over the Messenger, then which type of precedence to oneself over the Messenger can possibly be more severe than precedence to one’s intellect over the revelation he was sent with?! Many of the pious predecessors said, “Do not say anything until the Messenger speaks and do not act until he commands you”. The most disobedient individual among the people, and the worst in terms of giving precedence to himself over the Messenger, is the one who gives precedence to his or another person’s intellect over the revelation with which the Messenger was sent. And when it is the case that Allah has forbidden them from raising their voices above the voice of the Messenger, how about elevating their intellects above the Messenger’s statements and the revelation he brought? [(2)]

Imaam Abdul Azeez Bin Baaz [may Allah have mercy upon him] said: What is required of the People of Imaan is that they be followers of the religion rather than innovators and that they refrain from putting themselves forward before Allah and His Messenger. The scholars say, “Do not speak until you are commanded by Allah and His Messenger and do not act until the Messenger acts and legislates; do not put (yourself) forward before him with either speech or action. Be followers of what has been prescribed and made clear to you in the (Islamic) legislation, and this is how the people of Imaan should be, neither innovate acts of worship nor rulings in Allah’s Shariah.

[وَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ ۚ إِنَّ اللَّهَ سَمِيعٌ عَلِيم – And fear Allah. Verily! Allah is All-Hearing, All-Knowing] -Meaning, Allah hears their statements, and nothing about your situation is hidden from Him. He knows the truth you utter and everything else you say, and He knows what you do. Be mindful of Him and be warned against (disobeying Him), for nothing is hidden from Him. He hears you and is aware of your situation. As a result, it is incumbent upon you to be followers rather than innovators in Allah’s Shariah. [(3)]

The Imam was also asked: “Do those who rely on their intellects to understand many religious matters fall into the category of those who are mistaken?”

Response: It is incumbent upon him not to rely on his intellect, but rather to study the texts and rely on the divine texts from Allah’s and the Messenger’s speech since there is guidance and direction towards good in them. The intellect can be correct or incorrect. Because of their intellects, the sects that reject Ahlus Sunnah were destroyed (i.e. misguided). They believed that they had good intellects and that their intellects arrived at what was correct, so they opposed the (divine) texts through their stagnated intellects, which they believed were sound.

What, other than their corrupt intellects led the Jahmiyyah to deny Allah’s Perfect Names and Attributes? What, other than their corrupt intellects led the Mutazilah to negate the attributes of Allah and declared that the sinners will remain in hell forever? (i.e. that the one who commits major sins besides Shirk is neither a disbeliever nor a believer in this worldly life, but will abide in the fire forever in the Afterlife). Similarly, their followers who repeat this speech are in their position. What, other than their corrupt intellects led the Khawaarij to excommunicate the people for committing sins – that the sinner is a disbeliever and that he will remain in the fire forever?!

Similarly, this is true of others among the proponents of Bidah. They are destroyed by their intellects because they believe they are secure, sound, good, and infallible, whereas that is not the case; rather, they are not infallible. They make a lot of mistakes, but they have a good suspicion of their intellects and a bad suspicion of the divine texts, so they are ruined. It is incumbent to have a good suspicion of the divine texts and an evil suspicion of the intellect and to submit the intellect to the divine texts. The texts are infallible if their chain of transmission is established to be authentic. As for the intellects, they are fallible. A person is susceptible to mistakes, shortcomings and desires. As for the Messenger [peace and blessings of Allah be upon him], what he conveyed from Allah is infallible. Likewise, the Qur’an is infallible- the speech of Allah. Therefore, it is obligatory that the Qur’an and Sunnah pass judgement on your intellect and that you give precedence to the Qur’an and Sunnah over your intellect- over the intellect of the Shaikh, the Mashaayikh, your forefathers, ancestors and all the people. The texts are given precedence over all the intellects. [(4)]

Imaam Ibnul Qayyim [may Allah have mercy upon him] also said: It is said that Iblees was distanced (from Allah’s Mercy) due to false interpretation. He made an analogy and gave it precedence over the divine text – that his reasoning by analogy takes precedence over the command to prostrate. [أنا خير منه – I (Iblees) am better than him (i.e. Aadam)]; that a virtuous one cannot humble himself to one who has been given virtue over him; then he said: [خلقتني من نار وخلقته من طين – You (Allah) created me from fire, and him (Adam) you created from clay].

He thought that this reasoning by analogy that resembled truth, despite being wrong, would aid him in his false interpretation. Then what happened to transpired and he became the leader of everyone–until the day of judgement–who gives a false interpretation of the texts. Many people in this world are followers of this cursed leader. If you contemplate the vast majority of the doubts that are presented as the truth by those who misinterpret the texts and seek to disprove them, you will discover that they are similar to the doubts that Iblees attempts to present as truth. So, someone says: “If the intellect and the divine text conflict, give the intellect the upper hand”. This is where this principle comes from, and he utilises it as a fundamental principle to reject the divine texts that he believes are in opposition to the intellect, much as his leader Iblees said that a (so-called) rational proof contradicted the instruction to make Sujood. This doubt arose as a result of his pride, which stopped him from submitting to the clear texts of the divine revelation. Similarly, every false disputer against the divine texts does so out of pride. Allah [The Exalted] said:

إِنَّ الَّذِينَ يُجَادِلُونَ فِي آيَاتِ اللَّهِ بِغَيْرِ سُلْطَانٍ أَتَاهُمْ ۙ إِن فِي صُدُورِهِمْ إِلَّا كِبْرٌ مَّا هُم بِبَالِغِيهِ ۚ فَاسْتَعِذْ بِاللَّهِ ۖ إِنَّهُ هُوَ السَّمِيعُ الْبَصِيرُ

Verily, those who dispute about the Ayat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) of Allah, without any authority having come to them, there is nothing else in their breasts except pride [to accept you (Muhammad ) as a Messenger of Allah and to obey you]. They will never have it (i.e. Prophethood which Allah has bestowed upon you). So seek refuge in Allah (O Muhammad from the arrogants). Verily, it is He Who is the All-Hearer, the All-Seer]. [Surah Ghaafir. Aayah 56] [(5)]

Indeed, there is no honour for the one who wilfully misinterprets the Quran and falls into bidah, then pretends to be superior in intelligence, because all of this is a legacy of Iblees. The Salafiyyoon follow the true texts, the Qur’an and Sunnah, as practised and understood by the Sahaabah. Imaam Ash-Shaatibee [may Allah have mercy upon him] said: “Know that Allah has established this Shari’ah as evidence against the creation (i.e. humanity and jinn) – the old and the young, the obedient and the disobedient, the upright and the wicked. He did not specify the proof against anyone in exclusion of another person. Furthermore, all other revealed laws were established as evidence against all other nations to whom they were revealed. The Shariah is the judge, both in specific and in general, the (means of judgement) and the judge over all those who have reached the age of responsibility. It is the path connected to (what Allah has ordained) and it is the Greatest Guide. And have you not read Allah’s statement?

وَكَذَٲلِكَ أَوۡحَيۡنَآ إِلَيۡكَ رُوحً۬ا مِّنۡ أَمۡرِنَا‌ۚ مَا كُنتَ تَدۡرِى مَا ٱلۡكِتَـٰبُ وَلَا ٱلۡإِيمَـٰنُ وَلَـٰكِن جَعَلۡنَـٰهُ نُورً۬ا نَّہۡدِى بِهِۦ مَن نَّشَآءُ مِنۡ عِبَادِنَا‌ۚ وَإِنَّكَ لَتَہۡدِىٓ إِلَىٰ صِرَٲطٍ۬ مُّسۡتَقِيمٍ۬

And thus We have sent to you (O Muhammad) Ruhan (an Inspiration, and a Mercy) of Our Command. You knew not what is the Book, nor what is Faith? But We have made it (this Qur’an) a light wherewith We guide whosoever of Our slaves We will. And verily, you (O Muhammad) are indeed guiding (mankind) to the Straight Path (i.e. Allah’s religion of Islamic Monotheism).’’ [Surah Ash-Shuraa. Ayah: 52]

He (the Messenger) was the first to be guided to the Book and Imaan, followed by others who followed him. The Book is the Guide, and the Sunnah that was sent down to him explains that guidance [i.e. the Sunnah and the Qur’an explain each other]. It guides all of creation [including mankind and Jinn]. When this is the case, the Shariah is worthy of being the decisive proof against them (i.e. against humans and Jinn) as well as a light that guides people to the truth. Their nobility is determined by how completely they embrace its rulings–through acting on them in speech, belief, and deeds–rather than merely due to the level of their intellects or nobility among their people. This is because Allah [The Most High] determined nobility through Taqwa and no other than it. Allah [The Most High] said: [إِنَّ أَڪۡرَمَكُمۡ عِندَ ٱللَّهِ أَتۡقَٮٰكُمۡ‌ۚ – Verily, the most honourable of you with Allah is that (believer) who has more fear of Allah. [Surah Al-Hujuraat. Verse 13] The one who is more steadfast in his adherence to the Shari’ah is more deserving of honour and nobility”. [(6)]

To conclude, the compulsive liars should understand that a person’s so-called superior intelligence is not a criterion of guidance or misguidance; rather, what is given consideration is one’s adherence to the clear divine texts – the Qur’an and the Sunnah as understood by the Sahaabah. What good would intellects be to the inhabitants of the fire of hell (may Allah protect us from it) if they did not utilise their faculties as their Lord commanded?!

Allah [The Exalted] says:
وَلَقَدْ ذَرَأْنَا لِجَهَنَّمَ كَثِيرًا مِّنَ ٱلْجِنِّ وَٱلْإِنسِ لَهُمْ قُلُوبٌ لَّا يَفْقَهُونَ بِهَا وَلَهُمْ أَعْيُنٌ لَّا يُبْصِرُونَ بِهَا وَلَهُمْ ءَاذَانٌ لَّا يَسْمَعُونَ بِهَآ أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ كَٱلْأَنْعَٰمِ بَلْ هُمْ أَضَلُّ أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلْغَٰفِلُونَ

And We have certainly created for Hell many of the jinn and mankind. They have hearts with which they do not understand, they have eyes with which they do not see, and they have ears with which they do not hear. Those are like livestock; rather, they are more astray. It is they who are the heedless. [Surah Al-A’raaf. Ayah 179]

Allah [The Exalted] said:
وَقَالُوا۟ لَوْ كُنَّا نَسْمَعُ أَوْ نَعْقِلُ مَا كُنَّا فِىٓ أَصْحَٰبِ ٱلسَّعِيرِ

And they will say, “If only we had been listening or reasoning, we would not be among the companions of the Blaze.” [Surah Al-Mulk. Ayah 10]

We ask Allah
اللَّهُمَّ أَصْلِحْ لِي دِينِي الَّذِي هُوَ عِصْمَةُ أَمْرِي
وَأَصْلِحْ لِي دُنْيَايَ الَّتِي فِيهَا مَعَاشِي
وَأَصْلِحْ لِي آخِرَتِي الَّتِي فِيهَا مَعَادِي
وَاجْعَلِ الْحَيَاةَ زِيَادَةً لِي فِي كُلِّ خَيْرٍ
وَاجْعَلِ الْمَوْتَ رَاحَةً لِي مِنْ كُلِّ شَرٍّ

O Allah! Rectify my religion for me, which is the safeguard of my affairs; rectify my worldly [affairs], wherein is my livelihood; and rectify my Afterlife to which is my return, and make life for me [as a means of] increase in every good and make death for me as a rest from every evil.

[5] A Brief Look at Pseudo Researchers in Salafiyyah: [Examination of a Fabricated Quietist Faction Within Salafiyyah Called Mad’khalism]

Written by Abdullah Jallow on February 7, 2024. Posted in Contemporary Issues, Methodology - 'Manhaj', Morals and Manners - 'Akhlaaq', Refutations.

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

The deluded liars at Wikipedia stated: “In addition to Arab regimes, US policy-makers and senior advisors to the U.S. State Department have also advised the US government to fund al-Mad’khali and his strain of thought”. [End of quote]

Relationship with Muslim rulers: We’ve already talked about a Muslim’s relationship with the Muslim ruler, regardless of whether the ruler is pious or sinful. Read below:

https://abukhadeejah.com/the-tyranny-of-the-rulers-a-reason-for-rebellion/

Believer’s Bahaviour Towards Muslim Rulers – [Supplicates For Them….]

Relationship with non-Muslims in their lands: On July 28, 2000, Imaam Muhammad Ibn Saalih Al-Uthaymeen [may Allah have mercy on him] explained the Muslim’s relationship with a non-Muslim ruler and their subjects in the West as follows: Likewise, I invite you to have respect for those people who have the right that they should be respected, from those between you and whom there is and agreement (of protection) [i.e. Non-Muslims]. For the land which you are living is such that there is an agreement between you and them. If this were not the case they would have killed you or expelled you. So preserve this agreement, and do not prove treacherous to it, since treachery is a sign of the hypocrites, and it is not from the way of the Believers. And know that it is authentically reported from the Prophet that he said: “Whoever kills one who is under an agreement of protection will not smell the fragrance of Paradise.” Do not be fooled by those sayings of the foolish people: those who say: ‘Those people are Non-Muslims, so their wealth is lawful for us [i.e. to misappropriate or take by way of murder and killing].’ For by Allah – this is a lie. A lie about Allah’s Religion, and a lie in Islamic societies. So we may not say that it is lawful to be treacherous towards people whom we have an agreement with. O my brothers! O youth! O Muslims! Be truthful in your buying and selling, renting, and leasing, and in all mutual transactions. Because truthfulness is from the characteristics of the Believers, and Allah – the Most High – has commanded truthfulness – in the saying of Allah – the Most High –“O you who believe – fear and keep your duty to Allah and be with the truthful”. And the Prophet encouraged truthfulness and said: “Adhere to truthfulness, because truthfulness leads to goodness, and goodness leads to Paradise; and a person will continue to be truthful, and strive to be truthful until he will be written down with Allah as a truthful person”. And he warned against falsehood and said: “Beware of falsehood, because falsehood leads to wickedness, and wickedness leads to the Fire. And a person will continue lying, and striving to lie until he is written down with Allah as a great liar.” O my brother Muslims. O youth. Be true in your sayings with your brothers, and with those Non-Muslims whom you live along with – so that you will be inviters to the Religion of Islam, by your actions and in reality. So how many people there are who first entered Islam because of the behaviour and manners of the Muslims, and their truthfulness, and being truthful in their dealings.

As for the statement of the deluded liars “US policy-makers and senior advisors to the U.S. State Department have also advised the US government to fund al-Mad’khali and his strain of thought”, we must first remind the cretins that Al-Allaamah Rabee does not prioritize his intellect over the final divine revelation; rather, he uses Shariah texts to clarify the truth and refute all callers to falsehood. The religion he adheres to “is not a set of ideas, rather it is a divine revelation sent down – by the Lord of the universe – in the Magnificent Qur’an and the (authentic) Sunnah of the noble Messenger [peace and blessings of Allah be upon him] – the Messenger who never speaks based on his desires, rather [إِنۡ هُوَ إِلَّا وَحۡىٌ۬ يُوحَىٰ – It (i.e. the Qur’an and the authentic Sunnah conveyed by the Messenger) is nothing else but a revelation that is inspired]. As for an idea, it can be (rejected, disapproved, etc) and debated, and it may be correct or incorrect. Therefore, it is not permissible to associate Islam with the term ‘Idea’ because it is something specifically attributed to the creation [i.e. humankind and Jinn]. An idea can either be correct or wrong, (but) as for the Shariah [i.e. the sound divine law, creed, and acts of worship conveyed by the final Messenger from the Qur’an and the authentic Sunnah], it is infallible. Likewise, it is not to be said, an “Islamic idea”, because the scholar who has reached the level of Ijtihaad is restricted by the pure Shariah, so he is not allowed to contemplate (without referring back to infallible texts of the final revelation) and then legislate; rather he searches and follows the legislated Islamic path of (sound) Ijtihaad in order to derive rulings”. (2)

Indeed, if the disbelievers embarked upon funding so-called Mad’khali thought, they would have funded an illusion. Al-Allaamah Bin Haadi Al-Mad’khali follows the Qur’an and Sunnah as understood and implemented by the pious predecessors, whereas the disbelievers and liars at Vikipedia follow conjecture and desires, as Allah says:

إِن يَتَّبِعُونَ إِلَّا ٱلظَّنَّ وَمَا تَهۡوَى ٱلۡأَنفُسُ‌ۖ وَلَقَدۡ جَآءَهُم مِّن رَّبِّہِمُ ٱلۡهُدَىٰٓ

They follow but a guess and that which they themselves desire, whereas there has surely come to them the Guidance from their Lord! [Surah An-Najm]

Examine an example of the call of this Erudite Salafi Scholar (i.e. Al-Allaamah Rabee) when he stated: “The comprehensive Shariah understanding of Al-Fiqh Fid Deen “Whoever Allah wishes good for, He grants them an understanding of the religion!” When this understanding of the religion is mentioned amongst the people, they understand it to mean the books of Islamic jurisprudence (i.e. the books that discuss the rulings related to prayer, charity, fasting, marriage, etc); this is a deficient understanding. Fiqh (understanding) first and foremost is the understanding of the creed and Islamic monotheism. This is the highest level of Fiqh because the nobility of knowledge is (determined based on the) nobility of its subject matter. The best and noblest subject matter is Islamic Monotheism which teaches the people about the Attributes of their Lord and the perfection of His Attributes, (about) His Oneness, to worship Him alone and sincerely establish the entire religion for His Sake. Therefore, we seek an understanding of Islamic Monotheism from Allah’s Book (the Qur’an), the (authentic) Sunnah of Allah’s Messenger [peace and blessings of Allah be upon him], and from the understanding of our pious predecessors. We seek understanding in all areas of knowledge – understanding of halaal and haraam, acts of worship, mutual dealings, (sound) Islamic politics, economics, and in every affair. All these affairs – and all praise and thanks be to Allah – are extensively (found) within the (message) that Muhammad [peace and blessings of Allah be upon him] brought.

When Fiqh is mentioned, its intended (meaning includes) understanding of every affair that is connected to our religious and worldly affairs, and the foremost of them is the knowledge of Islamic Monotheism. There is nothing that can do without the knowledge of Islamic Monotheism. Some people deeply preoccupy (with other) sciences and subject matters, but he does not know this knowledge that Muhammad brought, to such extent that you find many people who are well versed in language, Islamic jurisprudence, philosophy and the science of rhetoric, but – by Allah – he does not know (the correct meaning] of Laa ilaaha illal laah’ – the Islamic Monotheism Allah sent all the Messengers with- the first and last of them. [وَلَقَدۡ بَعَثۡنَا فِى ڪُلِّ أُمَّةٍ۬ رَّسُولاً أَنِ ٱعۡبُدُواْ ٱللَّهَ وَٱجۡتَنِبُواْ ٱلطَّـٰغُوتَ‌ۖ – And verily, We have sent among every Ummah [community, nation] a Messenger [saying]: “Worship Allah [Alone], and avoid [or keep away from] all false deities.” [Surah An-Nahl Ayah 36]

Every Messenger came with this until the advent of the seal of the Messengers Muhammad [peace and blessings of Allah be upon him], who resided in Makkah for ten years and called to Tawheed (Islamic Monotheism) – the foremost aspect and basis of his call. The prayer – the second pillar of Islam after the testimony of faith Laa ilaaha illal laah – was not legislated until in the 10th year (of his Messengership), and the full details of Zakat were not legislated until [after his migration (to Madeenah) and all the other laws. This shows the importance of Tawheed, so how is it that many people who ascribe to Islaam- those who claim knowledge – are ignorant of it, then how about the ignorant people?! And due to this, misguidance, Bidah, and the worship of graves have become widespread, and this arose due to ignorance regarding the (perfect) Names and Attributes of Allah and negation of Allah’s (perfect) Attributes. (Also), a people from other religions entered into Islam and plotted against the people (through) corrupt sciences – rhetoric, philosophy, forged historical accounts, and what is similar to that, and thus corrupted their creed and methodology”. (3) [End of quote]

Would the unbelievers endorse Al-Allaamah Rabee’s above declaration and disseminate his works translated into English to their colleagues and universities, allowing the Salafiyyoon to promote Tawheed and Sunnah as understood and practiced by the pious predecessors in those institutions and their mainstream media?! There is no question that Allah can guide them to the Qur’an and Sunnah, and the sacred scripture is the sole upright guidance, not so-called Mad’khalism. Al-Allaamah Rabee follows the Qur’an and Sunnah even though the compulsive liars desperately seek to distort or deny what is as clear as the midday sun. Look at some of his rebuttals against the figureheads of kufr and shirk!

Who expects the unbelievers to support the stances of someone who rallies the scholars and senior students of knowledge in the Ummah to examine the unbelievers’ schemes?! Examine the Shaikh’s statement as follows: “So, it is not permissible for the Ulamaa to remain heedless of their plans (i.e. the enemies of Islaam), their actions, their publications, their missionary activities and their various calls (to the Muslims). And also the various poisons they are infusing – which are in opposition to the Qur’an and the Messenger (sallallaahu alayhi wasallam) and his Sunnah. And nor of what plans they have for (the destruction of) the beliefs and methodologies of Islaam. It is not permissible either, to remain heedless of their concentrated efforts to Christianize or secularize the Muslim youth. And along with that, the Muslim youth and the students are not able to oppose this plan and strategy. Rather it is necessary that the distinguished Ulamaa – those who are experienced and shrewd – it is for such people, in all the places to undertake this duty. So it is obligatory for some of the intelligent and ingenious people from the field of Aqeedah to be mobilised for opposing these plans. And likewise it is a must that the intelligent and distinguished from amongst the specialists in the Sunnah – that they be mobilised for the refutation of these and similarly the eminent and distinguished from amongst those in the fields of Orientalism for the refutation of the plans of the Orientalists.” (Ahl ul-Hadeeth, p.102)

He also says: “I myself believe that it is a benefit – rather it is of necessity – that we know what the enemies are planning for us, and that it is necessary for us to prepare (ourselves in strength) to destroy their plans. However, I do not exaggerate in this matter, rather my view is the view of our Ulamaa and they have all agreed upon this – that amongst the obligatory matters, there are some that are Fard Ain and others that are Fard Kifaayah – and even if knowing the state of the enemies is harmful – it is still necessary for us to know it – but it is treated as Fard Kifaayah. When some attend to it, then the harm is removed from the rest” up until he said: “So I consider that there is no criticism for the Ulamaa and the students of knowledge who take great concern for preserving the Sharee’ah of Allaah – in terms of the Book, the Sunnah, and its understanding – for this is one of the duties of the Kifaayah actions. And I believe that these people are more superior, noble, truthful and of more benefit to Islaam than those who are weak in their knowledge of the religion of Allaah or those who have no share in acquainting themselves with it.” [An excerpt from an article at www.salafipublications.com titled: The Salafis and Looking into the Affairs of the Ummah]

The above is enough to unveil the repugnant illusions of the liars at Wikipedia. Therefore, if these cretins want to demonstrate that they have realised the repugnance of their claims, lies and illusions, let them send these links to the unbelievers and command them to spread the true Salafi path; otherwise, they are among those whose lies are known to everyone with a smidgeon of common sense.

[13] Imaam Ahmad: Exemplifying Positive Engagement and Effective Communication with the Rulers

Written by Abdullah Jallow on February 6, 2024. Posted in Methodology - 'Manhaj', Morals and Manners - 'Akhlaaq', Purification of The Soul, Salaf As Saalih (Pious Predecessors), Scholars of Islam, The Salaf - Pious Predecessors, Worship - 'Ibaadah'.

Imam Ahmad Ibn Hanbal [may Allah have mercy upon him] said: “I hold that the leader of the believers is to be obeyed (in good) in private and public, in my times of hardship and ease, in my times of enthusiasm and when I dislike doing something (i.e. something that’s not unlawful, but one does not like to do it), and when others are given precedence over me. Indeed, I supplicate to Allah – night and day – for him to be successful and guided”.

[12] Ubaydullah Bin Adi Bin Al-Khiyar: Exemplifying Positive Engagement and Effective Communication with the Rulers

Ubaydullah Bin Adi Bin Al-Khiyar narrated that Al-Miswar Bin Makhrama and Abdur-Rahman Bin Al-Aswad Bin Abu Yaghuth said (to me), “What prevents you from speaking to Uthman about his brother Al-Walid because people have spoken much about him?” So, I went to Uthman and when he went out for prayer I said (to him), “I have something to say to you and it is a piece of advice for you”. Uthman said, “O man, from you.” (Umar said: I see that he said, “I seek Refuge with Allah from you.”) So I left him and went to them. Then the messenger of Uthman came and I went to him (i.e. `Uthman), `Uthman asked, “What is your advice?” I replied, “Allah sent Muhammad with the truth and revealed the Divine Book (i.e. Qur’an) to him, and you were amongst those who followed Allah and His Messenger, and you participated in the two migrations (to Ethiopia and Medina) and enjoyed the company of Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) and saw his way. No doubt, the people are talking much about Al-Walid.” `Uthman said, “Did you receive your knowledge directly from Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) ?” I said, “No, but his knowledge did reach me and it reached (even) to a virgin in her seclusion.” Uthman said, “And then Allah sent Muhammad with the truth and I was amongst those who followed Allah and His Messenger and I believed in whatever he (i.e. the Prophet) was sent with, and participated in two migrations, as you have said, and I enjoyed the company of Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) and gave the pledge of allegiance him. By Allah! I never disobeyed him, nor did I cheat him till Allah took him unto Him. Then I treated Abu Bakr and then Umar similarly and then I was made Caliph. So, don’t I have rights similar to theirs?” I said, “Yes.” He said, “Then what are these talks reaching me from you people? Now, concerning what you mentioned about the question of Al-Walid, Allah willing, I shall deal with him according to what is right.” Then he called Ali and ordered him to flog him, and Ali flogged him (i.e. Al-Walid) eighty lashes. [Sahih Al-Bukhari. 3696]

[4] A Brief Look at Pseudo Researchers in Salafiyyah: [Examination of a Fabricated Quietist Faction Within Salafiyyah Called Mad’khalism]

Written by Abdullah Jallow on February 6, 2024. Posted in Contemporary Issues, Methodology - 'Manhaj', Morals and Manners - 'Akhlaaq', Refutations.

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

The liars at Wikipedia stated, “Though originating in Saudi Arabia, the movement lost its support base in the country and has mostly been relegated to the Muslim community in Europe, with most Saudi Arabians not taking the edicts of Madkhalists seriously. Political scientist Omar Ashour has described the movement as resembling a cult, and English-language media has referred to the group as such”. [End of quote]

Response:

We’ve already proven beyond doubt in part 1 that there are no strains in Salafiyyah, let alone one known as Madkhalism; therefore, there’s no need to address anything related to its so-called origin or emergence as a movement; otherwise, we’ll engage in a fruitless debate in attempting to rebut this delusion of the deluded liars at Wikipedia. Everything said by the liars about this fictitious strain within Salafiyyah is intended to misconstrue the reality of Al-Allaamah Rabee’s approach and efforts in rebutting Ahlul Bidah. Indeed, Al-Allaamah Rabee Bin Haadi Al-Mad’khali [may Allah protect him] is their target since he, along with other well-known Salafi Scholars – such as Al-Allaamah Muhammad Amaan Al-Jaami, Al-Allaamah Ubaid Bin Abdillah Al-Jaabiri, Al-Allaamah Saalih Al-Fawzaan, Al-Allaamah Muhammad Bin Abdil Wahhaab Al-Bannah, Al-Allaamah Muqbil Bin Haadi Al-Waad’ee – exposed the corruption and deception of the Takfeeris, Qutubies, and other political activists in Saudi and elsewhere, and Al-Allaamah Rabee, in particular, revealed the reality of Sayyid Qutb, Hasan Al-Bannah, the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood sect, Adnaan Aroor, Abdur-Rahmaan Abdul Khaaliq, Ihyaa Turaath, and others. Additionally, other Salafi scholars, such as Imaam Al-Albaanee, as well as Salafi students of knowledge in the East and the West, revealed the truth about the Khawaarij, such as Usaamah Bin Ladin and Ayman Az Zawaahiri, political activists, and people who adhered to the Ikhwaanees’ methodology, such as Salman Al-Awdah, Safar, Nasir Umar, Muhammad Al-Areefee, Yusuf Al-Qaradawi, and their ilk. Visit: http://www.themadkhalis.com/md/

This is what the liars at Wikipedia and elsewhere are trying to conceal since Al-Allaamah Rabee Bin Haadi Al-Mad’khali and his students in the East and the West were amongst the first to expose all contemporary deviant groups and individuals whose orientation is a path that encourages an innovative political discourse or rebellion against Muslim rulers. So, when their misguided tactics and covert attempts to infiltrate Salafiyyah were uncovered, they concocted an imaginary strain within Salafiyyah which they called Madkhalism and falsely attributed it to Al-Allaamah Rabee Bin Haadi Al-Mad’kali. And to cover up their deviated organisations and figureheads, they also invented many bogus ideas; nevertheless, Al-Allaamah Rabee once more revealed their evil schemes. Read what the Shaikh stated in this link: https://salaficentre.com/2019/08/16/one-of-the-most-dangerous-group-shaikh-rabee-unveils-their-affair/

Regarding the claim of the liars that “the movement (i.e., so-called Mad’kalism) lost its support base in the country (i.e. Saudi Arabia) and has mostly been relegated to the Muslim community in Europe, with most Saudi Arabians not taking the edicts of Madkhalists seriously,” this is yet another desperate attempt – through this fictitious strain within Salafiyyah – to claim that Al-Allaamah Rabee’s stances are incorrect. Indeed, even if Al-Allaamah Rabee’s clarifications are rejected by all the political activists and the Khawaarij, including the pathetic liars at Wikipedia, this does not mean that the Shaikh is incorrect; rather, in Islam, what is given consideration is the clarification that is in agreement with the Qur’an and the authentic Sunnah as understood and implemented by the pious predecessors. Therefore, the sincere seeker of truth follows the proofs and does not take into account the large numbers in opposition, regardless of whether the clarifier’s clarifications are accepted or rejected in any location on Earth. Imaam Abu Shaamah [may Allaah have mercy upon him] said: “When the command to adhere to the Jamaa’ah (the main body) is (mentioned), then the intent behind it is to adhere to the truth, even if those who follow it are few and those who oppose it are numerous. That is because the truth is that which the first Jamaa’ah was upon- the Prophet [peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him] and his companions [may Allaah be pleased with them]- and one does not give consideration to the numerous people of falsehood”. [2]

Imam Abdul Azeez Bin Baaz [may Allaah have mercy upon him] said: “Let every Muslim be careful of being deceived by the great numbers [of people upon such and such idea, view, belief, way of life, etc], whilst saying, ‘Indeed, the people have become such and such, and have become accustomed to such and such, so I am with them’. This is a great calamity, for indeed many people of the past were destroyed due to this [i.e. blindly following the majority]. Therefore, O sensible one! It is obligated on you to examine yourself; take account of yourself and adhere to the truth, even if the people abandon it. Beware of what Allaah has forbidden, even if the people do it, for indeed the truth is more worthy of being followed, just as Allaah [The Most High] said: [وَإِنْ تُطِعْ أَكْثَرَ مَنْ فِي الْأَرْضِ يُضِلُّوكَ عَنْ سَبِيلِ اللَّه ِ -And if you obey most of those on earth, they will mislead you far away from Allah’s Path. [Surah Al An-aam Ayah 116]

And Allaah [The Most High] said: [ وَمَآ أَڪۡثَرُ ٱلنَّاسِ وَلَوۡ حَرَصۡتَ بِمُؤۡمِنِينَ-And most of mankind will not believe even if you desire it eagerly] [Surah Yusuf Ayah 103]. [3]

Al-Allaamah Muqbil Bin Haadee Al-Waadi’ee may Allaah have mercy upon him] said: “If numbers are the scale by way of which you judge, then the majority are mostly blameworthy; and if persuasive speech and eloquence is the scale by way of which you judge, then indeed Allah described the Munaafiqoon that they have tongues that utter beautiful speech. Allah said: [وَإِن يَقُولُواْ تَسۡمَعۡ لِقَوۡلِهِمۡ – And when they speak, you listen to their words]. [Surah Al-Munaafiqoon. Aayah 4]

Therefore, what is given consideration is that one knows the people of truth by their characteristics – that they call to the Book of Allah and the Sunnah of Allah’s Messenger [peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him, his family, and companions], and they neither desire reward from the people nor seeking to be thanked”. [4]

Indeed, the measure by which truth is distinguished from falsehood is not whether or not one takes Shaikh Rabee’s refutations seriously; rather, one examines the evidence offered by this sincere, devout, and valiant Scholar [may Allah protect him]. Likewise, may Allah bless our brave seniors at Salafipublications for delivering various articles over many years to elucidate the truth. Visit websites that are a thorn in the throats of the misguided as well as those who seek to hide behind Salafiyyah to propagate their false and bidah principles.

Finally, regarding the satanic claim of the Vikipedia Shayaateen that Shaikh Rabee Bin Haadi Al-Mad’khali and those who support his knowledge-based refutations are a cult and that this is also the view of Dr. Umar Ashqar and some in the English language media, this is undoubtedly another desperate attempt to distort the truth, just as they have done with a fictitious strain within Salafiyyah known as Mad’khalism although there are neither strains nor cults within Salafiyyah; rather, those who have deviated from sound Salafi principles and still seek to ascribe to it to justify their deviations are well known to either hasten towards extremism or negligence, and thus some Salafi scholars, including Al-Allamah Rabee, Al-Allamah Ubaid, and their students, clarified the reality regarding these deceivers. So, the deceivers accused Al-Allaamah Rabee of cultism after the robust and knowledge-based refutations against them became widely accessible to the Salafiyyoon. Indeed, none of the Shayaateen liars on Wikipedia or elsewhere can produce a single piece of knowledge-based evidence to show that Al-Allaamah Rabee and those who assisted him in his Jihaad against Ahlul Bidah and the political activists are cultists. This is why the Shaikh addressed them as follows:

“We are challenging Ahlul Bidah Wal Ahwaa [the adherents to bidah and followers of vain desires] in their creed and politics. We say, between us and you are the (path, understanding of the) pious predecessors and books (of the pious predecessors). Ahmad [i.e. Imaam Ahmad] used to say to the proponents of bidah, ‘Between us and you are the funerals (i.e. whose funeral will be attended by Ahlus Sunnah in great numbers)’. We say (i.e. at present), ‘Between us and you are the books (of the pious predecessors)- the books are present! Allah said to His Messenger [peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him]: [قل فَأْتُوا بِالتَّوْرَاةِ فَاتْلُوهَا إِنْ كُنْتُمْ صَادِقِينَ – All food was lawful to the Children of Israel, except what Israel made unlawful for himself before the Taurat (Torah) was revealed. Say (O Muhammad ): “Bring here the Taurat (Torah) and recite it, if you are truthful]. So, they bring the Torah and you prove them to be upon falsehood. We bring the books of the pious predecessors – the Qur’an, the Sunnah, the books of Al-Bukhari, Muslim, Abu Dawood, at-Tirmidhi, an-Nasaa’ee, and what was authored by Ahmad and others; we bring them (to prove) those who are on the path of these (pious predecessors) and those who turn away and oppose them. Just as Allaah challenged the Jews to bring the Torah, so the Torah was brought and they were exposed. We challenge these people to bring the books of the pious predecessors, so that the Mubtadi is exposed, and to clarify who the deviants are- whether us or them? Are they able to challenge? Can they open their mouths like this? We fill our mouths with courage – challenge everyone who says that we are upon other than the methodology of the pious predecessors. We, by Allaah, call to the methodology of the pious predecessors- to the Book of Allah and the Sunnah of Allaah’s Messenger [peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him]. We use the book of Allah and the Sunnah as proof for our beliefs, our acts of worship, our dealings with rulers and their subjects, and in dealing with groups and sects. As for the others, they are upon tricks, deception, etc By Allaah, you will not find with them anything but tricks and manipulating the emotions of youth”. https://youtu.be/mxXSfKh_sjw

As for Dr. Umar Al Ashqar, may Allah have mercy on him, if this is actually his statement as transmitted by the Shayaateen liars at Wikipedia, then indeed, it is a disgusting lie and slander. However, regardless of whether this is his statement or not, his affair was not hidden from the Salafiyyoon. Shaikh Abdul Ilaah Lahmami Al-Maghribi [may Allah preserve him] stated, “I heard from our Sheikh Muhammad Abdulwahhab Marzooq al Banna [may Allah have mercy upon him] that he (i.e. Umar Ashqar) was one of his students in the Jamiah al Islamiyyah in Madinah and that later he followed the Manhaj of the Ikhwaan Al-Muslimeen. And that even Abdulrahman Abdulkhaliq who also later followed the manhaj of the Ikhwaan complained to Sheikh al Banna about Umar al Ashqar following the Ikhwaan”. [5]

[3] A Brief Look at Pseudo Researchers in Salafiyyah: [Examination of a Fabricated Quietist Faction Within Salafiyyah Called Mad’khalism]

Written by Abdullah Jallow on February 6, 2024. Posted in Contemporary Issues, Methodology - 'Manhaj', Morals and Manners - 'Akhlaaq', Refutations.

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

Vikipedia’s pseudo researchers on Salafiyyah wrote, “Madkhalism is a strain of Quietist thought within the larger Salafist movement based on the writings of Sheikh Rabee-al-Madkhali, characterised by monarchism and loyalty to secular authoritarian governments in the Arab world. Arab states have generally favored Madkhalism due to its support for secular forms of government as opposed to other strains of Salafism, and Madkhalism’s decline in Saudi Arabia has been connected with a decline in support for secular forms of government in the Muslim world”. [End of quote]

Response:

This classification of a strain within Salafiyyah known as Madkhalism is a ruse concocted by Salafiyyah’s sworn foes. They are unable to present concrete evidence to confront the sound Salafi methodology and its upright scholars, therefore they resort to lies, fantasy, delusions, and slander. This term was concocted by Ahlul Bidah (the Qutbiyyah, Ikhwaanees, and their ilk) to discredit a great scholar of this Ummah called Rabee Bin Haadi Al-Madkhali [may Allah preserve him]. Read about this great scholar in the article compiled by Shaikh Abu Khadeejah [may Allah preserve him]: https://abukhadeejah.com/biography-of-ash-shaykh-al-allamah-rabi-ibn-hadi-al-madkhali-and-the-praise-of-the-scholars-for-him/

These sworn foes at Wikipedia and elsewhere are unable to present any credible, unequivocal knowledge-based proof that Al-Allaamah Rabee is guilty of initiating a single Bidah. The Shaikh challenged them as follows, “Do you take revenge against these Salafiyyoon and nickname them with these nicknames only because they hold onto the Book of Allah and the Sunnah of Allah’s Messenger [peace and blessings of Allah be upon him]? What is the bidah that the Salafiyyoon have for them (i.e. the false accusers) to say Mad’khaliyyah, Jaamiyyah?” [2] There is no such thing as Mad’khalism nor a quietist train in Salafiyyah.

The claim that so-called Madkhalism favours dictatorial rulers is nothing more than an attempt by the Khawaarij to hide or misconstrue the sound methodology transmitted in the Sunnah regarding how a Muslim should deal with rulers, whether pious or sinful.

Closing The Door Of Rebellion Against The Ruler – By Shaikh Abu Iyaadh [may Allaah preserve him]:

Regarding the claim that so-called Madkhalism is “Characterized by monarchism and loyalty to secular authoritarian governments in the Arab world, and Arab states have generally favored Madkhalism due to its support for secular forms of government as opposed to other strains of Salafism”, this is just another desperate attempt by the khawaarij, Qutubiyyah, and other extremists to confuse two very significant issues, namely: how to deal with a ruler who rules by secular law, and rulership itself.

Regarding the pathetic statement that so-called “Madkhalism’s decline in Saudi Arabia has been connected with a decline in support for secular forms of government in the Muslim world”, this is the statement of an idiot who knows very little or nothing about Salafiyyah, or a pseudo analyst. Read: https://salaficentre.com/2021/02/10/believers-bahaviour-towards-muslim-rulers-advise-given-in-private-supplicate-for-them-and-refrain-from-rebellion-so-beware-of-spiteful-foreign-instigators-and-some-dangerous-social-media-networ/

Indeed, the sound methodology that Al-Allaamah Rabee propagates is the same that Imaam Abdul Azeez Bin Baaz, Imaam Muhammad Ibn Saalih Al-Uthaymeen, Imaam Al-Albaanee, and others have advocated, and not a single one of them advocates false Takfeer, rebellion, demonstrations, and turmoil in Muslim lands. This so-called decline of so-called Madkhalism is nothing more than a desperate attempt by the liars to make it appear as if the methodology preached by Al-Allaamah Rabee in dealing with rulers is unique to him, when, in fact, everything the Shaikh says about rulers is what other upright Salafi scholars say. Al-Allaamah Saalih al-Fawzaan [may Allah preserve him] stated, “We know that the khawaarij are those who hold that they can renounce obedience (to the ruler). They hold that the ruler is not given the oath of allegiance or that it is not binding upon the people to maintain their oath of allegiance to him when he becomes sinful, and they (also) declare the Muslims to be disbelievers for committing major sins. So if they adopt this school of thought and there arises neither uproar nor killing, then they are left alone, advised, and given clarification in the hope that they may repent. If they cause uproar and manifest their strength, it then becomes obligatory for the Muslims (i.e. the ruler’s army) to fight them to avert their evil”.[3]

Al-Allaamah Saalih al-Fawzaan also stated, “There are different types of khawaarij: among them are those who carry weapons, those who speak out like the one (i.e. Dhul-Khuwaysirah) who said to the Messenger, “Be Just,” those who write, and the one who believes in his heart but does not speak or do anything, but has the belief of the khawaarij in his creed. However, some are worse than others”. [4]

So, based on Al-Allaamah Saalih al-Fawzaan’s clarification regarding the Muslim’s relationship with rulers and refutation of the Khawaarij, which is the identical clarification offered by all Salafi Imaams, such as Abdul Azeez Bin Baaz, Al-Albaanee, and Muhammad Ibn Saalih Al-Uthaymeen, will the liars at Wikipedia concoct a so-called strain within Salafiyyah called Fawzanism, Baazism, Uthayminism, or Al-Albaanism?!

Indeed, there is nothing left to say to the liars at Wikipedia other than that whoever among us is lying or hiding the truth regarding what they have written about so-called Makhalism and Al-Allaamah Rabee, then may Allah’s curse be upon the liar. If they are truthful, then call Allah to witness and invoke the curse of Allah upon the liar.

[11] Ibn As-Sammaak: Exemplifying Positive Engagement and Effective Communication with the Rulers

Written by Abdullah Jallow on February 5, 2024. Posted in Brotherhood, History of Islam, Morals and Manners - 'Akhlaaq', Pearls of Wisdom, Purification of The Soul, Salaf As Saalih (Pious Predecessors), The Salaf - Pious Predecessors.

One day Ibn As-Sammaak [may Allah have mercy upon him] came when Haaroon Ar-Rasheed [may Allah have mercy upon him] asked for water. After a cup of cold water was brought, he said to Ibn As-Sammaak, “Admonish me”. Ibn As-Sammaak said to him, “O leader of the believers! How much would you pay for this drink if you were deprived of it?” He replied, “Half of my reign”. Ibn As-Sammaak said to him, “Drink, may it be blessed”. After he drank, Ibn Sammaak said to him, “If this water was prevented from exiting your body, then how much would you pay for it (to be removed)”, he said, “The other half of my reign”. Ibn Sammaak said to him, “Indeed, half of the reign is the value of a little drink of water and the value of the other half is that of urine. It is befitting that you do not strive and compete with others for it”. Haaroon wept.

Ibn As-Sammaak [may Allah have mercy upon him] once gave an admonition to Haaroon Ar-Rasheed [may Allah have mercy upon him], saying, “O leader of the believers! Indeed, you will stand before Allah, and indeed you have a standing that would decide the relocation to another place (i.e. reward or punishment in the Hereafter), so ponder upon where you would be”. Haaroon then wept a lot.

He once approached one of the leaders to intercede for a poor man, saying, “I came to you for a need; the seeker and the giver are honourable if you fulfill the need, and humiliated if you do not fulfill it, so choose for yourself the nobility of giving over the humiliation of withholding, and the nobility of success over the humiliation of refusing to give (when you are able)”.

[9] Haaroon Ar-Rasheed Meets BahlooI: Exemplifying Positive Engagement and Effective Communication with the Rulers

Haaroon Ar-Rasheed [may Allah have mercy upon him] set out for Hajj and saw Bahlool [may Allah have mercy upon him] – the insane – in the middle of the town running, whilst the children were behind him; so Haaroon said, “Who is this?” They said, “It is Bahlool the insane one”. He said, “I wanted to see him, so call him without intimidating him”. They said to Bahlool, “Respond to the leader of the believers”. Haaroon said to him, “O Bahlool! Peace be upon you”, he replied, “O leader of the believers! Peace be upon you”. Haaroon said, “I desired very much for a long time to meet you”, he replied, “But I did not have that desire to meet you”. Haaroon said, “O Bahlool! Give me an admonition”, he said, “With what should I admonish you whilst these are your castles and graves”. Haaroon said, “Increase your admonition because indeed you have spoken well”. He said, “O leader of the believers! The one upon whom Allah has bestowed wealth and beauty, so he becomes chaste in his beauty and charitable with his wealth, he will be written in the register of the righteous”. Haaroon thought that Bahlool wanted something and said to him, “We have ordered that your debt is paid”. He said, “O leader of the believers! No, do not pay a debt with another debt, rather fulfill the rights of the people and eliminate your own debt from yourself”. Haaroon said, “We have been commanded to reward you”. He said, “O leader of the believers! Do you think that Allah has given you and forgotten me?!” Then he ran away.
