We have stated to you more than once–Imaam Muqbil Bin Haadee

Imaam Muqbil Bin Haadee (rahimahullaah) said:

”We have said to you and we have said to you! We do not want anyone to select us.  InShaaAllaah, we choose from the narrations of the Messenger of Allaah (Sallal-laahu wa-alaa aalihi-wasallam) just as the scholars used to choose.  We neither want authority nor leadership, and we have stated more than once; even if the leader of the state called us and said: ”Go ahead favoured with leadership”, we would say: ”Allaah’s protection is sought!  We do not see you as one who gives us sincere advice.”  We do not want leadership; we do not want to be appointed a minister; we do not want to call the people to follow us; we do not want to establish a party; but we want to call to the Book of Allaah and to the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allaah (sallal-laahu alayhi wa-alaa aalihi wasallam).

We do not have time to defend ourselves–Imaam Muqbil Bin Haadee

Imaam Muqbil Bin Haadee (rahimahullaah) said:

”We do not have time to defend ourselves; but we (defend) the Sunnah.  And even if we are tormented with fierce battle we will not leave anyone who speaks against the Sunnah of the Messenger (Sallal-laahu-alayhi- wa-alaa-aalihi-wasallam) — be he a Shia, or a Soofee or from Ikhwaan al-Muslimeen (i.e. the deviated and destructive innovated Muslim brotherhood of Egypt and else- where); because we are to sacrifice (ourselves) for the Sunnah and our objective is the Sunnah.”

If you hear a person saying, ”that is a Wahhaabee”–Imaam Muqbil Bin Haadee

Imaam Muqbil Bin Haadee Al-Waadi’ee (rahimahullaah) said:

”If you hear a man saying: ”That is a Wahhaabee’’, then know that he is one of two men: Either he is a vicious scum or an ignoramus who does not know his knee from his elbow (i.e. he is either a stupid person or one carrying ill-informed views)”

Even if I was given a million (every) month – by Shaikh Muqbil Bin Haadee

Shaikh Muqbil Bin Haadi (rahimahullaaah) stated:

Even if I was given a million every month to abandon seeking knowledge, I will not accept it; rather even if I was given this Masjid filled with gold, I will not accept it.

Our Salaf: Sufyaan Ath-Thawree Weeps

Ataa Al-Khaffaaf (rahimahullaah) said:

I never met Sufyaan Ath-Thawree (rahimahullaah) except that he was weeping; so I would say to him: What is it with you? He would say: ”I fear that I have been written as a wretched one in the preserved tablet.”

[b] Our Salaf: Ibraaheem Ibn Yazeed–from his supplications

And from his (rahimahullaah) supplications were:

”O Allaah! Safeguard me through your Book and the Sunnah of your Prophet; (Safeguard me) from opposing the truth and from following desires (due to an absence) of guidance from you; (Safeguard me) from the paths of misguidance, from the affairs that resemble truth but are falsehood in reality, from deviation, deception and blameworthy argumentation (in religion).”

Our Salaf: Mu-aadh Bin Jabal (radiyallaahu-anhu)– The station of Knowledge

Mu-aadh Ibn Jabal (radiyallaahu-anhu) said:

Knowledge is obligatory upon you, for indeed seeking it is worship; learning it for the sake of Allaah is a good deed; giving it freeing to its people is a seeking to get close to Allaah; teaching it to the one who does not know about it is charity; researching it is Jihaad and revising it is glorification (of Allaah).


[Quoted by: Shaikh Jamaal al-Fareehaan al-Haarithee in Ad-Durar Al-Manthoor Minal Qawl Al-Ma’thoor: page: 67. The Shaikh referenced the original source of this statement of Mu-aadh (radiyallaahu-anhu) to Ad-Daylamee No: 2237; Tazkiratus Saami: 35 and Majmoo Al-Fataawaa: 4/42]

Part 1: I asked Abu Khadeejah about Abdur-Raheem McCarthy-Another Wolf In Sheep’s Clothing

All praise is due to Allaah and may His salaah and salaam be upon our noble Prophet Muhammad, his family and companions.  To proceed:

 

I [Abu Mu-aawiyyah (Abdullaah al-Gambi) asked Ustaadh Abdul Waahid Abu Khadeejah (may Allaah preserve him) about the state of affairs of Abdur-Raheem McCarthy Al-Amreekee after coming across his mixing haqq with Baatil, his exaggerations and defence of the people of hizbiyyah such as the likes of Abu Muslimah and the people to be treated the same as Ahlul Bidah such as Abu Usaamah; so he (Ustaadh Abu Khadeejah) said to me: ‘’Narrate from me that I heard Shaikh Muhammad Bin Haadee (may Allaah preserve him) saying: ‘’I warn against Abdur-Raheem.’’


Next topic Inshaa-Allaah:

The false claim of Abdur Raheem that the Salafis hide the commendation (Tadeel) given to certain scholars who were imprisoned and promote the Jarh against them.  Indeed, we do not know whether to cry or laugh at this nonsense.  Abdur-Raheem–the deceiver– neither mentioned the names of those so called scholars nor did he give details of the Tadeel for them and the Jarh against them.  Indeed, we do not expect the likes of Abdur-Raheem to be brave enough to argue his position with Ilm, proofs and evidences; rather he utilised the methods of the Hizbiyyoon (i.e. general statements that can be utilised for both haqq and baatil, and then he chose to utilise them for baatil).   Inshaa-Allaah, we will discuss this in the next post and also the affair of Saeed Rageah another deceiver who exaggerates and mixes haqq with baatil.
