In The Name of Allaah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy
Allaah (The Most High) said:
وَتَمَّتْ كَلِمَتُ رَبِّكَ صِدْقًا وَعَدْلًا
” And the Word of your Lord has been fulfilled in truth and in justice” [Soorah Al-An-aam: Ayah: 115]
Truthful with regards to its narratives and Just with regards to its rulings.

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).
[Source: قمع المعاند page: 83. slightly paraphrased]
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.”

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)”

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.

Imaam Muqbil Bin Haadee (rahimahullaah) said:
Indeed Nad’dhaam, Abu Hudhayl and other than them amongst the enemies of the Sunnah have passed and the Sunnah of the Messenger (sallal-laahu alayhi-wasallam) has remained white and pure, and their mockery of it has not harmed it (i.e. the Sunnah). And the contemporary enemies of the Sunnah will die and the Sunnah of the Messenger (sallal-laahu-alayhi- wa-alaa aalihee wasallam,) will remain; because Allaah has guaranteed its preservation. So He (The Most High) said:إِنَّا نَحْنُ نَزَّلْنَا الذِّكْرَ وَإِنَّا لَهُ لَحَافِظُونَ— Verily We: It is We Who have sent down the Dhikr (i.e. the Qur’an) and surely, We will guard it (from corruption)’’ [15:9]

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.”
[Source: Seerah As-Salaf As-Saaliheen of Imaam Ismaa’eel Ibn Muhammad Al-Asbahaanee]
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).”
[Source: Seerah As-Salaf As-Saaliheen of Imaam Ismaa’eel Ibn Muhammad Al-Asbahaanee: section: Those who followed the companions in righteousness]
Shaikh Abdur-Razzaaq al-Badr (may Allaah preserve him) said:
Indeed, it is the common practice of the business men of the world not to miss the big (trading) seasons; rather they make perfect preparations to bring goods, display merchandize, spend time and make great efforts. And this (first ten days of Dhul Hijjah and the pilgrimage season) is a lucrative season for the trading of the afterlife and a perfect turning to Allaah [The Most High) in (obedience, submission, performance of good deeds, keeping away from sin, repentance etc.)
