Criticism Against a Book of Taleeghi Jamaat titled ‘Hayaatus Sahaabah’
In The Name of Allaah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy
Imaam Albaani [rahimahullaah] stated that the one who authored this Book [i.e. Hayaatus Sahaabah] is not merely an individual amongst Jamaat At-Tableegh, but he is a figurehead- if not a figurehead of the figureheads. He authored this book and the Jamaa’ah At-Tableegh apply what it guides to. However, this book is compiled in a haphazard manner- the author did not distinguish what is in this book with a mention- first and foremost- of what is narrated from the Messenger [sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam] with authentic chains of transmission. That is because the speech of the Messenger is not like the speech of others, even if they [i.e. others] are from the righteous friends of Allaah.
Secondly: The author mentioned many narrations attributed to the Sahaabah [radiyallaahu-anhum]- but when it is the case that he did attribute unauthentic narrations to the Prophet [sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam], which the people of knowledge do not consider to be authentic based on the science of Hadeeth, its chains of transmissions and the biographies of the narrators, then it is most likely that he would mention numerous unauthentic narrations attributed to the actions, methodology and manners of the Sahaabah.

What is Fusooq—Shaikh Fawzaan (may Allaah preserve him) explains…
Question:
Concerning the statement of Allaah (The Most High): [وَكَرَّهَ إِلَيْكُمُ الْكُفْرَ وَالْفُسُوقَ وَالْعِصْيَان] – ”And has made disbelief, wickedness and disobedience (to Allah and His Messenger) hateful to you.” [Al-Hujuraat. Ayah 7] Al-Fusooq and Al-Faasiqoon have been mentioned several times in the Qur’aan and the Sunnah, so what is Fusooq and how can a Muslim be careful of becoming from a people who are Faasiqeen?
Answer:
Concerning Allaah’s (The Most High) statement: [وَكَرَّهَ إِلَيْكُمُ الْكُفْرَ وَالْفُسُوقَ وَالْعِصْيَان]- ”And has made disbelief, wickedness and disobedience (to Allah and His Messenger) hateful to you”; He (Glorified Be He) mentioned the three types of acts of disobedience in this noble Ayah:
(A) The type of disobedience that removes a person from the fold of Islaam, such as Kufr (Akbar) and Shirk (Akbar). [Ref 1]
(B) The major type of disobedience which is lesser than Kufr (Akbar) and Shirk (Akbar) and it does not remove a person from the Religion but it decreases one’s Imaan—a manifest decrease–; such as fornication, theft, drinking alcohol and other than that of the major sins. They are referred to as Fusooq (wicked deeds) and the person who commits them is referred to as a Faasiq (wicked sinner) because Fisq means removing oneself from obedience to Allaah (The Mighty and Majestic].
(C) Then He (The Most High) mentioned the type of disobedience that is lesser than the major sins and are not tantamount to Fisq, and they are the minor sins.
So Allaah (Glorified Be He) informed (us) that He has made all these three types of disobedience hateful to the people of Imaan and make them have a love for the various types of acts of obedience and righteous actions that draws them close to their Lord.

Question: Brixton Masjid Admin and Staunch Affiliates –[Halabiyyoon]—which group do you belong to?!
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ
Al-Allaamah Zayd Bin Haadi (may Allaah preserve him) said:
As for the followers of a leader from amongst the people of desires, then in most cases they are of two categories:
The First Category:
Those who possess knowledge, but they harbour evil intentions; so they yield to Satan, desires and the urge of the evil soul. They follow the people of misguidance and oppose the callers to guidance (in that which) Allaah sent His Messenger Muhammad (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) with.
The Second Category:
Their share of knowledge is little, so the people of desires take advantage of them and they become (part) of their group. They convince them that what they call them to is the manifest truth and that what their opponents are upon is falsehood. And they convey to them a huge (number) of affairs that resemble the truth but are falsehood in reality, in order to deceive them and submerge them into misguidance.

Statements of Some of The Kibaarul Ulamaa
In The Name of Allaah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy
Al-Allaamah Hammaad Al-Ansaari (rahimahullaah) stated:
“The Sahaabah never differed in Aqeedah; rather the differing (in Aqeedah) took place after them.” [1]
Al-Allaamah Saaleh Al-Luhaydaan (may Allaah preserve him) was asked about the one who says that the sahaabah differed in aqeedah; so he said: [“أستغفر الله – none says this except a Mubtadi Daal (i.e. an innovator, astray one). [2]

Al-Allaamah Ahmad Bin Yahyah An-Najmi (rahimahullaah) was asked about the one who says that the Sahaabah differed in Aqeedah; so he replied: “The one who says that the sahaabah differed in Aqeedah should support his speech with evidences; otherwise he is a liar, false accuser…. [3]
The Shaikh (rahimahullaah) also said:
Has lying and false accusation been made easy for the utterer (of this statement) to such a level: Falsely accusing the Companions of the Prophet (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallaam)?! [4]
The Shaikh (rahimahullaah) also said:
”Indeed this speaker who says that the Sahaabah differed in Aqeedah–it is obligated on him to keep quiet and should be prevented from speaking about Aqeedah; because he is ignorant about it.” [5]
The Shaikh (rahimahullaah) also said:
As for differing in the rulings pertaining to subsidiary issues of (the religion) based on Ijtihaad, then this did occur between the Sahaabah and each of them stated what he saw to be the truth, and none amongst them found fault with anyone. Not a single one of them reproached the one who was in opposition to him; but the aim of this speaker–false accuser–is to pave the way for the differing of hizbiyyah (i.e. to find room– by way of this false claim–for the differing of the people of illegal partisanship against the sound Manhaj positions of the Salafis). And he has established against himself that he is a hizbi…. [6]

Ref 2: Clarification: The Muta-aalim (Pseudo Shaikh Asim Al-Hakeem) has not been declared an innovator; rather this is a general ruling and not specific to anyone until the evidence is established against such an individual. However, it shows the severity of Asim’s devilish insinuations and ignorance.
