Nad’dhaam, Abu Hudhayl and other enemies of the sunnah have passed away and the sunnah has remained white and pure. Contemporary enemies of the sunnah will die and the sunnah will remain. Allah has guaranteed its preservation.
نصيحتي لأهل السنة – P14- by Shaikh Muqbil [rahimahullaah]
Shaykh Ubayd Al Jaabiree: The Sunnah is a call to that which rectifies the present and the future.
Tabsaratul Khalaf bi Sharh At-Tuhaf fee Madhaahib As Salaf Pg 70
Imaam Ibnul Qayyim (rahimahullaah) said:
If the (bright) sun of the Sunnah rises in the heart of a servant, the mist (or fogginess) of every Bid’ah is cut from his heart and the darkness of every (act, practice or belief of) misguidance ceases to exist. [Source: Madaarij As-Saalikeen (1/379)]

Shaykh Ubayd Al Jaabiree (Allah preserve him) said:
It is said to those who innovate:
So if he said:
“No”,
He has disbelieved, and he’s become from those who have legislated that which Allah did not give permission for. [Ref 1- see footnote 1 at the end of this article]
And if he said:
“Yes”
Then it is said to him:

Ref 1- footnote 1: Refer to the principles of Takfeer in this link: http://www.salafipublications.com/sps/sp.cfm?secID=MNJ&subsecID=MNJ09&loadpage=displaysubsection.cfm
Ref 2- footnote 2: Refer to the principles of Tabdee in this link:

Finally, it should be absolutely clear to all of us (commoners) that the people of knowledge (scholars and those students whom the scholars have stated that they are qualified in this affair) are the ones with the ability to establish unambiguous proofs, remove doubts and pass the judgement of Takfeer or Tabdee. May Allaah protect us. Aameen
Answered by Shaykh Fawzaan.
Al Allaamah Ash Shaykh Saalih Al Fawzaan (hafidahullah) was asked:
Q: What is the meaning of Ikhlaas? And if a servant intends something else with his worship, what is the ruling [on that]?
A: Ikhlaas means to be free from Shirk. That the person’s deeds, his intention and goal are sincerely for Allaah’s Countenance (The Mighty and Majestic)-neither to associate partners with Allaah through them (i.e. his intention and deeds) nor to show off (in order to be seen) or to be heard. Neither aiming (to please) other than Allaah (The Mighty and Majestic) through them (i.e. his intention and deeds) nor seeking the dunya (i.e. worldly material), nor the praise of people, thus a deed becomes one (carried out) sincerely for Allaah’s Countenance because Allah does not accept deeds except those that are sincerely (done) for His Countenance.

Al Allaamah Al Faqeeh Muhammad ibn Saalih Al Uthaymeen (rahimahullah) was asked:
Question: It is said that indeed a bidah is not initiated except that a Sunnah similar to it is abandoned, as one of the salaf stated(1); so what is the abandoned Sunnah as a result of innovating the bidah of mawlid?
Answer: The abandoned Sunnah (in this instance is in relation to) abandoning this bidah because indeed the Sunnah can be by way of [ترك -(abandoning) and by way of فعل (action)]. If the Messenger ( sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam ) left something (i.e. an act of worship) despite the fact that there was a means for action, but he did not do it, then leaving it is Sunnah. So here we say: You (people) initiated a bidah and abandoned a sunnah, and Sunnah here is to abandon this bidah.

(1) Know that the people never introduce an innovation until they abandon its like from the Sunnah.
