Part 7.2: The False Principles of Ali Halabi (The Innovator)
In The Name of Allaah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy
Halabi Defended Those Who Were Refuted For Their deviations
Observations were made concerning the state of affairs of Usaamah Qoosee, Abu Ishaaq Al-Huwaynee, Muhammad Hassaan and Muhammad Husain Yaqoob; but even before a group of people rallied behind them and listened to them, they did utter statements indicating their deviation from the Salafi Manhaj. Therefore, the Salafis demanded from them a recantation from these deviations, but they did not; rather they launched a war against those Salafi Scholars who refuted them.
Then Ali Halabi and his companions at Markaz Imaam Albaanee did nothing but join the ranks of these people in opposing Shaikh Rabee and his brothers amongst the Salafi scholars. He did this under the false pretence of pursuing the middle path and that they were waging war against Extremism in the affair of Criticism and declaring people innovators without a justified reason. So Shaikh Ahmad An-Najmi stopped him and Mash-hoor Hasan in their tracks by refuting and warning against them. Likewise, Shaikh Ubaid did the same. As for Shaikh Rabee, he exercised a lot of patience towards Halabi and his companions and advised them repeatedly. He advised them repeatedly despite the fact that they did utter unbefitting statements against him. However, he still gave them a final advice in his house but it did not benefit them.
Then a hidden affair became manifested and that was the connection between Markaz Imaam Albaanee and the organisation Ihyaa Turaath—that organization well known for hizbiyyah, politics, its Qutbi orientation and affiliation with one of the heads of innovation of this era known as Abdur-Rahmaan Abdul Khaaliq.

The one who does not establish the true reality of Laa-ilaaha ilal Laah–Shaikh Rabee
Question:
Will the one who does not establish the true reality of ‘’laa ilaaha illa Allah” enter paradise or hellfire?
Answer:
It is inevitable that the one who does not establish the conditions of laa ilaaha illa Allah will enter the fire. If he wasn’t sincere; if he wasn’t truthful; if he did not know its meaning; if he said Laa ilaaha illa Allah and explained it as “there is no creator except Allah (and) ‘’there is no provider except Allah,’’ (then even) if we were to (give) him the excuse of ignorance the least about him is that he is from the misguided sects.
Fataawa fil Aqeedah wal Manhaj – Shaykh Rabee
Translated by Abu Abdir-Razzaaq (Amjad Khan)
In Defense of the Prophet Muhammad–by Shaikh Rabee Ibn Haadee Al-Madkhalee
In the Name of Allah, the Most Merciful, the Bestower of Mercy
All praises are due to Allah, and may Allah exalt the status of the Messenger of Allah and that of his family and his companions, and may He grant them peace.
As for what follows:
Some newspapers and other forms of media have spread hurtful, vicious information that could only emanate from the jealous, arrogant enemies of Islam and its Prophet (may Allah raise his rank and grant him peace).
That conduct comprises a calumniation of Muhammad, the Messenger of Allah and a distortion of his message by jealous individuals and Christian organizations, as well as envious and irresponsible columnists, like those who write for the Danish newspaper Jyllands-Posten.
Its writers mocked the best of Mankind and the most distinguished of the Messengers, Muhammad (may Allah raise his rank and grant him peace), the likes of whose nobility, honour, justice, and manners the earth has never known of. Neither has it known of a more complete and comprehensive message than his, nor a more just and merciful one.
It is a message that embraces belief in all of the prophets and messengers, honoring them and defending them from calumniation and defamation. It has also preserved an accurate history of the prophets, including Jesus and Moses. So whoever disbelieves in Muhammad and speaks of him in a derogatory manner has disbelieved in all of the prophets and disparaged of all of them.
Recently, some uncivilized miscreants made fun of the Prophet, drawing various pictures of him. Twelve despicable pictures, one of them portrayed him (may Allah raise his rank and grant him peace) wearing a turban resembling a bomb on his head.
We say to these criminals and their envious supporters in Europe and America: You are accusing others of your very own crimes! (*)
Let it be known that never did Muhammad (may Allah raise his rank and grant him peace), nor his righteous successors or any of his honorable companions, ever establish factories for even the most primitive of weapons, like swords and spears, let alone atomic bombs, long-range missiles, or any other weapon of mass destruction.
Never did Muhammad (may Allah raise his rank and grant him peace) build a single weapon factory. Rather, he was sent as a mercy for the entire creation, to guide all Mankind towards happiness in their worldly lives and in their hereafter, such that they fulfill their Creator’s right upon them, for it is He who created them to worship Him alone. Whoever rejects this is truly a criminal deserving punishment in this life and the next, by the Lord of all that exists, the Creator of this universe and its Master.
As for you O Westerners, claimants of civilization, you have constitutions and statutes that destroy upright moral character and permit all kinds of forbidden acts, the likes of fornication and sodomy, as well as usury which destroys the economies of entire nations, and the eating of improperly slaughtered animals (dead meats) and pork, something that causes the loss of concern for women’s values, and thus a man does not feel protective of his wife, sister, or daughter, and thus she fornicates with or intimately befriends whomever she pleases. These are some of the means which lead to ruin, and they have been prohibited in all of the prophetic messages.
As for bombs and all other weapons of destruction, war planes, tanks, and long-range missiles, you are the ones who engineered and manufactured them with your satanic minds that only think about transgression, animosity, oppression, attacking, tyranny, conquering entire races of people and enslaving them, spilling their blood, and usurping their natural resources. You think only about annihilating those who oppose you and stand in the way of your greedy aspirations, your oppression and spreading of hatred. All this wrapped up in the name of civilization, human rights, freedom, and justice!
All intelligent people know this about you. For your dark history is overflowing with uncivil and terrorist acts, a history recorded against you by both your enemies and allies alike.
Anyone who does not know this should read about your history and your occupation of numerous nations, or at least read the history and some horrible results of your two World Wars. For example, the number of fatalities in the First World War in Europe reached “More than 10 million, and they were the elite of their nations’ youth. And more than twice this number had incurred serious injuries disabling them for the rest of their lives.” [Refer to: At-Taareekh al-Mu’aasir: Uruubbaa minath-Thawratil-Fransiyyah ilal-Harbil-‘Aalamiyyaith-Thaaniyah, p.505. (Lit: Recent History, Europe from the French Revolution to the Second World War)]
The number of soldiers killed in the Second World War reached: “17 million, along with another 18 million civilian fatalities – all of them killed within a period of only five and a half years. Experts have estimated that the military expenses alone reached $1,100 billion, and that losses caused by the war reached the value of $2,100 billion. Added to this are the number of entire cities destroyed, the amount of earth scorched, the agriculture that was flooded, and the factories and plantations that stopped production, not to mention the number of livestock that were destroyed or lost.” [(Al-Harb al-‘Aalamiyyah ath-Thaaniyah by Ramadhaan Land, p.448-449) (Lit: The Second World War)]
The Hiroshima Bomb
Stated the author of the book, “al-Harb al-‘Aalamiyyah ath-Thaaniyah” (p.446-447) (Lit: The Second World War), “And perhaps it is appropriate to speak about this first atomic bomb. Let us relay what was reported directly from one of the Japanese in his interview with Marcel Junod, a representative of the Red Cross, speaking about the reality of this most frightening explosion. He said: …And suddenly there appeared these intense, muddy pinkish lights, accompanied by an unnatural tremor. This was immediately followed by an asphyxiating wave of heat and violent winds that ravaged everything in their path.
Within only a few seconds, thousands of people who walked the roads or sat in the city’s main streets were burned alive. A great number were then killed by the intense heat that spread all over. Others were left lying on the ground screaming in pain with deadly burns all over their bodies. Anything that had been at the point of impact – walls, homes, factories, and other buildings – was completely and totally annihilated, with all traces of these things sent hurling into the sky in a ghastly whirlwind. Trams were plucked from their steel tracks and flung as if they had lost their weight and substance. Trains were lifted off the ground along with their tracks as if they were mere toys. Horses, dogs, and livestock were all befallen with what befell the people. Every living thing had lost its life in one painful turn of events too difficult to describe. Trees were engulfed in blazing fires, rice fields lost their color, and farms crackled and burned away like dry straw.
As for the surrounding areas that escaped instant death: Homes were crumbled and only piles of wooden boards remained amongst bricks and stone foundations. Everything was crushed as if they were cardboard houses in a zone of destruction 10 kilometers in diameter. Those who survived found themselves totally surrounded by raging fires. The few people who managed to get to any type of shelter in time died painful deaths from gamma radiation within 20 to 30 days. By nightfall on the day of the blast, the blaze slowed down and then died out, finding nothing left to fuel it. Hiroshima had passed away into nothingness.”
These are some of the landmarks of your civilization that you sing and boast about, and become insolent towards Islam and its Prophet with. Yet you continue intensifying every form of oppression and corruption and you go on inventing more and more weapons of destruction, annihilation, and devastation, and this – by Allah – is the utmost limit of barbaric and animalistic behavior.
( Or do you think that most of them even listen or use their intellects?
They are only like cattle, rather, even more astray than that. )
[Soorah al-Furqaan 25:44]
So crown yourselves with your own bombs, including the Hiroshima bomb and its likes, and crown your leaders with them. Consider all other weapons of mass destruction as your fangs and claws that you use to prey upon wild animals and all of Mankind.
( And those who oppress shall see what kind of outcome overturns them. )
[Soorah ash-Shooraa 26:227]

Why Shaikh Rabee Was Correct And Shaikh Abdul Muhsin Was Wrong (Yet Both Are Rewarded)
Regarding Abu al-Hasan al-Ma’ribee al-Ikhwani: Why Shaykh Rabee’ Was Correct and Shaykh Abdul-Muhsin al-Abbaad Was Wrong (Yet Both Are Rewarded) – Part 1

Major Scholars past and present on Shaykh Rabee

This article is not a definitive compilation of all the statements of praise on Shaykh Rabee, but has been compiled in order to dispel the lies and deceptions of those who revile Shaykh Rabee bin Haadi Al Madkhalee. Some people say that Shaykh Rabee is not respected by the Scholars or that he is not held in high regard, or even that he has been warned against!
Well to them we say; read this article, Fear Allah and rectify your tongues. The article is not comprised of my statements or statements of fulaan or fulaan, rather in this article are a handful of statements from the major scholars past (may Allah have mercy on them) and present (may Allah preserve them) concerning the status of the Shaykh – and we do not praise anyone over the praise of Allah. Verily Ahlul ilm know the status and rank of ahlul ilm.
Before we begin let us take heed from this reminder from the noble Shaikh Zayd al-Madkhalee (hafidhahullaah) who said:
“…The one who belittles the righteous scholars, criticizes them, and describes them with that which they are free from, then he has been afflicted with the disease of doubt and the disease of lust. And the distinguishing sign of the people of bid’ah was that they would find fault with the righteous scholars…” – http://www.sunnahpublishing.net/modules/Manhaj/sittahtranslation.pdf
BaarakAllaahu feekum
Shaykh Muqbil bin Haadi Al Waadi’ee
Shaykh Muqbil said in Tuhfatul-Mujeeb, “Shaykh Rabee is a sign from the signs of Allaah (aayah min aayaatillaah) in knowing the Hizbiyyeen, not like the ayatollahs of Iraan, the Dajjaalleen…”
Shaykh Muqbil also said, “Whomever Shaykh Rabee’ says is a Hizbee, then the days will soon reveal that he is a Hizbee…”
Shaykh Abdul Mohsin Al Abbad on Shaykh Rabee
The following is a summary translation taken from sahab.net – http://www.sahab.net/forums/showthread.php?t=355344
Questioner: A rumor has appeared and it is being carried by some people with sick hearts, claiming falsely that you have spoken ill of Sheikh Rabee in a lesson from one of your lessons. And we dont believe that they want by this except to set the Scholars in opposition against one another. So what is your statement concerning this? And what is your instruction to these people? Therefore we would like to take a tape and spread it to clarify their falsehood.
Sheikh Abdul Muhsin Al Abad:
“Sheikh Rabee is from those who are busy with knowledge during this time period, and he has efforts which are good and tremendous in working with the Sunnah. And also he has authored works, so he has authored works which are good and tremendous and beneficial.And I do not criticize him, nor do I warn from him, and I say he is from those Scholars whom are well grounded and if he is busy with knowledge you find in him many benefits.
Therefore I consider Sheikh Rabee to be from the Scholars, those whom should be listened to, and from those Scholars whose benefit is great.
(Taken from a tape, from the Sheikhs explanation of forty hadith) – http://salafitalk.net/st/viewmessages.cfm?Forum=9&Topic=6447
Shaykh Uthaymeen on why people speak about Shaykh Rabee
The questioner asks:
ما هي نصيحتكم لمن يمنع أشرطة الشيخ ربيع بن هادي المدخلي بدعوى أنها تثير الفتنة وفيها مدح لولاة الأمر في المملكة ، وأن مدح الشيخ ربيع للحكام نفاق ؟ .
What is your advice concerning the one who forbids the cassettes of Shaikh Rabee’ bin Haadee [from being distributed] with the claim that they cause fitnah and that they contain praise of the Wullaat ul-Umoor of the Kingdom, and that his praise of them emanates from nifaaq (hypocrisy)?
To which the Shaykh responds:
رأينا هذا غلط وخطأ عظيم ، والشيخ ربيع من علماء السنَّة ومن أهل الخير وعقيدته سليمة ومنهجه قويم ، لكن لما كان يتكلم على بعض الرموز عند بعض الناس من المتأخرين وصموه بهذه العيوب ، أعرفت ؟
We consider this to be a great error and mistake. Shaikh Rabee’ is from the Ulamaa of the Sunnah, and from the people of goodness. His aqidah is sound and his manhaj is strong and sound. However, when he began to speak about some of the symbolic figureheads of some of the people, from amongst the latecomers they began to tarnish him with these faults. Do you know [this] now?
Shaykh Ibn Uthaymeen (rahimahullaah) said,
“Indeed we praise Allaah, Free is He from all imperfections, the Most High, that He makes it easy for our brother, the Doctor, Rabee’ bin Haadee al-Madkhalee to visit this region. [So that] the one to whom certain matters are not apparent may come to know that our brother, may Allaah grant us and him success, is upon Salafiyyah, the way of the Salaf. And I do not mean here that Salafiyyah is a hizb (party) which is set up to oppose the Muslims outside of it,but I mean by Salafiyyah, that he (i.e. Shaikh Rabee’) is upon the path of the Salaf in his Manhaj. Especially in the field of actualising Tawheed and throwing aside (i.e. refuting, clarifying) what opposes this [manhaj]. And all of us know tht Tawheed is the basis for which Allaah sent the Messengers upon them be peace and prayers…
The visit of our brother, Shaikh Rabee bin Haadee to this region, our city, Unaizah, no doubt will have a good effect and it will also become clear to many of the people what used to be hidden from them due to the scare-mongering and rumour-mongering and also letting loose the tongue [of discord]. And how numerous are those who are remorseful about what they said concerning the Ulamaa, when it becomes clear to them that they (the Ulamaa) are upon the truth.”
Then one of those present at the gathering says, “There is a question concerning the books of Shaikh Rabee’?”
To which the Shaik replied,
“It is apparently clear that this question is not in need of my answer. And just as Imaam Ahmad was asked about Ishaaq bin Raahawaih – rahimahumullaah – and he replied, “Someone like me is asked about Ishaaq! Rather, Ishaaq is to be asked about me.” And I spoke at the beginning of my speech about that which I know about Shaikh Rabee’, may Allaah grant him success, and what I mentioned has never ceased to be what I hold about him in my soul, up until this time. And his arrival here and his words that have reached me, then no doubt, they are such that they will increase a person in his love for him and in his supplication for him.” End of quote.

Shaykh Ghudyaan meeting with Shaykh Rabee
The following is a summary translation taken from sahab.net – http://www.sahab.net/forums/showthread.php?p=564579
(Sultan bin Muhammad bin Saalim Al Juni) said
“I was a companion with our Sheikh, Sheikh Rabee during his meeting with the major scholars in Taif in the year 1427 (Islamic year)
So I will mention when we went to the Noble Scholar Sheikh Abdullah Ghudayyan, may Allah preserve him.
So we entered upon him in his office and we gave him the greetings, so he stood and shook Sheikh Rabees hand, gave us the greetings, and sat us down with him.
So he began to speak with Sheikh Rabee with delight and gentle, polite humor.
Then the talk was surrounding the minhaj, so Sheikh Rabee said, We warn from mistakes in the minhaj that oppose the book and the Sunnah and oppose the minhaj of the Salafi Salih that some of the callers fall into, so that the people will not be deceived by them.
So Sheikh Ghudayyan said, I am with you in this oh Sheikh Rabee.
And before Sheikh Rabee sought permission to leave, Sheikh Ghudayyan requested some of Sheikh Rabees recent books so he could look at them, so Sheikh Rabee promised to send this to him.
Then Sheikh Rabee sought Sheikh Ghudayyans permission to depart, so he gave us permission to leave. And we left with the same, rather we left with more happiness, delight and peace of mind than we had when we were greeted.”

Shaykh Saalih Al-Luhaydaan 1431 hijri/2010
Question:
أقرأ وأسمع في بعض المجالس حملة تطعن في فضيلة الشيخ الدكتور ربيع بن هادي المدخلي والتحذير منه والأخذ عنه وأنه ليس من أهل السنة والجماعة مما جعلني في حيرة من أمري فما حكم ذلك نرجو التوضيح وجزاكم الله خيرا
The Shaykh’s Answer:
لا شك أنه من أهل العلم وهو من تلامذة شيخنا الشيخ عبد العزيز في المدينة وكان من الأساتذة في جامعة المدينة ولا أعرف عنه انحرافا لا في عقيدة ولا في أخلاق بل ظني فيه أنه حسن وأنه من أهل الخير ومن المكافحين لدعاة الفتنة
ثم إني أنصح الشباب أن يتجنبوا الوقيعة في أهل العلم ويكفوا ألسنتهم وأن يحرصوا على تقييم أنفسهم ثم إذا رأوا في أحد فيما يظنون عيبا فليفتشوا أنفسهم ولينظروا فيها فإذا وجدوا عيوبا فيحرصون على إصلاحها …
Original source: Sahab.Net, translation (taken from the one posted on ST, with corrections made to it):
I read and I hear in some sittings a campaing slandering the noble scholar as-Shaikh Rabee’ ibn Hadee al-Madkhalee and warnings against him, in addition to taking from him (knowledge), and that he is not from Ahlus-Sunnah wal-Jamaa’ah, which made me become confused in my affair (of seeking knowledge). So what is the ruling upon this, please clarify? Jazakumullaahu Khair.
He (Sheikh Saalih) answered:
There is no doubt that he (Shaikh Rabee’) is from the people of knowledge, and he is from the students of our Shaykh, Shaykh Abdul ‘Azeez (Ibn Baaz) (when they were) in Madinah, and he (Shaykh Rabee’) used to be from the teachers of Madinah (Islamic) University. I do not know any deviations of him neither in Aqeedah nor in Akhlaaq (mannerism), rather my perception of him that he is good and that he is from the people of goodness, as well as being from those who battle the callers to fitnah.
Thereafter I advise the youth is to stay away from reviling the scholars, and to withhold their tongues (from reviling the scholars). Also let them (the youth) strive to assess themselves (to improve themselves). And then if they saw what they thought is a fault in someone, then let them investigate their own souls (first), and let them look into them, so if they saw faults (in their own souls), they should be eager to rectify them …
Shaykh Saalih Al-Luhaydaan 1432 hijir/2011
Quote:
Second matter: Ash-Shaykh Rabee’ bin Haadee Al Madkhalee is from the people of knowledge and what an excellent man! …..
…Rather, if they presented this matter to Shaykh Rabee’ it would become apparent to them, that he does not intend this dangerous path and dispelling methodology, rather the intent is those lenient ones, the warners and those who say: we facilitate all the people from all walks of life and each one of us acts upon what he believes and we excuse whatever others believe! No, the matter is not like that as well. It is obligatory that the truth be dominant upon various people and their ways and it is Allaah whose help we seek.

Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab Marzooq al-Banna praise of Shaykh Rabee
How long have you known sheikh Rabee?
Since 1382h/1383h until now.
quote:
…by Allaah I would not have believed it if all the people told me for my experience of knowing Rabee while even as a student and until now I have not known him ever to lie.
quote:
Is Sheikh Rabee from the Kibaar al Ulamaa?
Who is in this time similar to him? He knows the reality of most of the callers. Who is like him? He knows with proof and evidence. He doesn’t speak about anyone except with the proof. That is why I say about Rabee Haadee is similar to Yahyah ibn Ma’een in this time. You must forgive me son I have become old I forget, now I am 90 years. Shiekh Ibn Baz rahimahullaah is the Umar ibn AbdulAziz in this era. And sheikh Nasrud Deen al Albaani rahimahullaah is the Ibn Taymiyyah of this era. and Sheikh Uthaimeen rahimahullaah is the Shaf’ee of this era. By Allaah, the most knowledgeable of our scholars in this time ibn Uthaimeen rahimahullaah and the most generous is Sheikh AbdulAziz ibn Baz rahimahullaah, And the most knowledgeable of those differences between people and knowing the truth is Sheikh al Albaani rahimahullaah, and the most knowledgeable ones of Rijaal (men) with proof and evidence is Sheikh Rabee Haadee May Allaah protect him. And May Allaah protect his intellect.
When sheikh al Albaani rahimahullaah showed the errors of Sayid Qutb and Abdullah Dawaish rahimahullaah no one moved but when Sheikh Rabee may Allaah be pleased with him, showed the misguidance of Sayid Qutb and he clarified it from his (Sayid Qutb’s) books and his situation in the past, the world was against Rabee. He said it with openness and evidence.
So may Allaah reward him and make him firm and may Allaah keep him alive to remove those who wear the clothes of salafiyyah in order to fight it. We ask Allaah to show their state and clarify them and keep their evil away from us.

Shaykh bin Baz leter to Shaykh Rabee asking him to refute an individual who made taweel of Allah’s attribute and to clarify the truth to the Muslims.
The letter has an official letter head for “the Office of the General Muftee of the Kingdom”, is dated 24/7/1415H and begins with the subject heading:
Regarding the speech of the one-called Nazih Hammad on the Noble Qur’an Radio [program].
The letter is addressed from Abdul-Aziz bin Abdullah bin Baz to the
His respectfulness, the Noble Brother, the Esteemed Shaykh, Dr. Rabee’ bin Haadee al-Madkhali, may Allaah grant him safety, Ameen.
After giving salutations, the Shaykh mentioned that he was informed by Dr. Muhammad bin Sa’ad ash-Shuway’ir of Shaykh Rabee’s hearing of the speech of the one called Nazih Hammad which was broadcast on the Noble Qur’an Radio [program] on 12/6/1415H between 7am and 8am and that he spoke about the Ta’weel of the attributes of al-hayaa and al-ghadab.
Then the Shaykh said:
For this reason, I ask from your excellence to expect reward in refuting him and clarifying the truth to the Muslims, because I have not heard this speech (directly).
May Allaah grant your excellence success in every goodness and multiply your reward, for He is all-Hearing, ever-Near…
Then the Shaykh gives his salutations and places his official seal at the end of the letter.

Part 3: Ali Halabi’s Long Journey
In The Name of Allaah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy
Ali Halabi’s Unsteady Stance towards Passing Judgments on Individuals and Deviants
[Adnaan Ar’oor and Muhammad Al-Maghraawi]
Discussion in pages 16-20 in the Arabic PDF. Download PDF here:
http://www.ajurry.co…07&d=1351203443
Before the death of the three Mashaa-yikh [i.e. Imaam Bin Baaz, Imaam Al-Albaanee and Imaam Muhammad Ibn Uthaymeen(rahimahumullaah)], Adnaan Ar’oor together with his companion Ahmad Sallaam newly invented a number of principles and fundamentals in the affair of passing judgements against individuals and the manner of dealing with the Mukhaalifoon. And for that reason, they embarked upon a number of seminars and study sessions in order to attract the salafi youth in Britain and other than it, and they called them to accept those false principles.
In their gatherings, they raised objections against Shaikh Rabee’s methodology of criticism, refutation, his stances towards the one in opposition and in the science Jarh Wat-Tadeel. They warned the youth against the methodology which they described as extreme, excessive harshness and defamation. They defended Sayyid Qutb and portrayed him to the youth as one of the best amongst those who spoke in the (affairs) of Manhaj. Shaikh Rabee opposed them and clarified the corruption of their principles and methodology and the falsity of their fundamentals and what they advocated. So they were infuriated and announced a fierce battle against Shaikh Rabee. This affair was the beginning of the Fitnah of these people and not what some think due to ignorance and deceit, that it was Shaikh Rabee who initiated the Fitnah and war with these ones.
And through a number of deceptive ways, Adnaan Ar’oor attempted to obtain the statements of the three Mashaa-yikh (Imaam Bin Baaz, Imaam Al-Albaanee and Imaam Ibn Uthaymeen) to support his falsehood and dispraise the methodology Shaikh Rabee was defending. He (Adnaan) did not reach what he wanted, because the scholars realised his plots and tricks.
And it was transmitted in a statement of Imaad Taariq Al-Iraaqee in the internet forum Kullu As-Salafiyyeen, which is under Ali Halabi’s supervision: [The Stance of our Imaam Al-Albaanee Towards Shaikh Rabee Al-Madkhali’s Refutation Against Adnaan Ar’oor, transmitted by our shaikh Ali Al-Halabi]; Imaad said: I came across a section from the speech of our Shaikh Al-Halabi in which he transmitted the stance of Shaikh Al-Albaanee towards Shaikh Rabee’s reproach against Adnaan, that when I (Ali Halabi) mentioned some of Shaikh Rabee’s proofs against Adnaan to Shaikh Al-Albaanee and Adnaan reply, he (i.e. Shaikh Al-Albaanee) said: These affairs are true, it is incumbent upon Adnaan to reply to them with clarity, and abstract speech is not enough or merely saying this is general and that is detailed and this is all inclusive and that is specific and so on, this neither rectifies nor is it of benefit in the likes of this affair.
Part 2: Abridged: Ali Halabi’s Long Journey
In The Name of Allaah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy
Ali Halabi Before and After the Death of Imaam Al-Albaanee (rahimahullaah)
In this section we will quote directly from the author and in other places where the discussion is lengthy, we will paraphrase.
The author said:
‘’During the lifetime of the Mujad-did of the era Imaam Al-lbaanee (rahimahullaah), Ali Halabi was a caller to the Sunnah alongside his brothers from Ahlus Sunnah and an opponent of innovation and its people. He used to wage war against hizbiyyah, warned against its paths and consequences. He used to wage war against Takfeer and the Manhaj of the Qutubiyyoon. He used to wage war against those who spoke ill of the scholars and the Salafi Mashaa-yikh. He used to wage war against the activists and people of politics. [political activists: http://www.spubs.com/sps/downloads/pdf/MNJ130030.pdf]
He used to wage war against the innovated views and calls, and he was manifest in warning against the Mukhaalifoon (those who hold affairs that are in opposition to the book, the Sunnah, the ijmaa and correct positions), the groups and individuals; and he particularized them when making a mention of them. He aided the (sound) fundamental principles of Ahlus Sunnah and nullified the (corrupt) principles of the various innovators. There is no doubt that this is from that which Halabi benefitted in his sittings with Shaikh Al-Albaanee (rahimahullaah), as it is not hidden from anyone regarding Shaikh Al-Albaanee’s state of affairs with the Mukhaalifeen.’’[end of quote]
Lengthy Discussion [paraphrased and abridged]
Before the death of Shaikh Al-Albaanee (rahimahullaah), a guy by the name of Muhammad Abu Raheem kindled a Fitnah with regards to the issue of Imaan and disbelief amongst the salafis. He relied upon the well- known Qutubi Safar Al-Hawaalee and his book Dhaahiratul Irjaa Fee Fikr Al-Islaamiy. This Muhammad Abu Raheem began directing his attacks at Ali Halabi and there came about refutations from both parties against one another. When the affair reached Shaikh Al-Albaanee, he declared Muhammad Abu Raheem wrong and Ali Halabi correct. So Muhammad Abu Raaheem turned on Shaikh Al-Albaanee and accused him of Irjaa using the Qutbi Safar Al-Hawaalee as proof. However, Muhammad Abu Raheem was brought down on his feet and was lowered in the eyes of the salafi. [See the following links for the verdicts of the scholars against Salmaan and Safar: [http://www.salafipublications.com/sps/sp.cfm?subsecID=NDV12&articleID=GRV070001&articlePages=1][http://www.spubs.com/sps/downloads/pdf/NDV120006.pdf]
At first Ali Halabi did not speak in detail in the subject matter of Eemaan, because whenever false accusations reached Shaikh Al-Albaanee that he (i.e. Al-Albaanee) has fallen to irjaa, he would explain and detail the affair. [See following links: The scholars free Al-Albaanee from Irjaa]http://www.salafipublications.com/sps/downloads/pdf/MSC060021.pdf] http://www.salafipublications.com/sps/downloads/pdf/MSC060017.pdf
Ali Halabi Enters into the Discussion of the Subject Matter of Eemaan
Ali Halabi agreed with the book of Muraad Shukri which was against Takfeer, but also contained mistakes in the subject matter of Eemaan and kufr [see page: 12 on this PDF]. So when Mourad Shukri’s book reached the Committee of Major Scholars in the leadership of the Mufti of the Era Shaikh Abdul Azeez Bin Baaz (rahimahullaah), the Committee passed a verdict against the book that it aided the school of thought of Irjaa and warned against the book and its author. This left Halabi in a state of great bewilderment due to his agreement with the author, and actually on the cover of the book, it was written:[Read, revised and approved for printing by Shaikh Ali Al-Halabi], but on the other hand he had to acknowledge the truth of that which the Committee of Major scholars pronounced. And at the time, Halabi stated in [Majallah Al-Furqaan Number 101]: ‘’The book (i.e. Mourad Shukri’s Book) was expressed in the author’s views, based on what he carried out of research and what was evident to him.’’ Halabi made these remarks despite the fact that he did revise and approve its printing without clarifying any errors in it. However, Halabi’s final statement on the affair was that of recantation; he said: ‘’And Indeed I praise Allaah and for His bestowal Tawfeeq, that I free myself from the least and all of that, in agreement with the scholars of Islaam and the distinguished Imaams. And with regards to that which I erred or (that which) was not clear to me in something of its affair, in this subject matter and other than it, then indeed I recant from it (i.e. from such errors), returning to what is correct (whilst) neither (harbouring) pride nor doubt.’’ [See page: 13 in the PDF]
Ali Halabi’s Long Journey (May Allaah guide him)
In The Name of Allaah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy
Ibn Abee Haatim reported in Az-Zuhd from Al-Hasan who said: ”Indeed, the hearts are more severe in losing control than feathers are on a stormy day.”
