    Another Trick of Ahlul-Bid'ah is Feigning Ignorance of Religion'sDetail to Conceal their Deviance & Evil Intention, Objective

    Undoubtedly, this religion is a religion of detail.

    Allaah, The All-Knowing, All-Wise, said:

    Alif-Laam-Raa. (This is) a Book, the Verses whereof are perfected (in everysphere of knowledge, etc.), and then explained in detail from One (Allaah),Who is All-Wise and Well-Acquainted (with all things). (Hud, ayah 1)

    This means perfect in its wording, detailed in its meaning. Thus, it is complete in its

    form and its meaning. This interpretation was reported from Mujaahid andQatadah...This means that it (the Qur`an) is from Allaah, Who is Most Wise in Hisstatements and His Laws, and Most Aware of the final outcome of matters...ThisQur`an descended - perfect and detailed - with the purpose of Allaah's worship alone,

    without any partners.1

    And Allaah, The Most High, said:

    ...And We have also sent down unto you (O Muhammad) the Dhikr (Sunnah)that you may explain clearly to men what is sent down to them... (An-Nahl,ayah 44)

    Meaning, sent down from their Lord, because you [meaning Muhammad, salallaahu'alayhi wa sallam] know the meaning of what Allaah has revealed to you, and becauseof your understanding and adherence to it, and because We know that you are thebest of creation and the leader of the Children of Adam. So that you may explain indetail what has been mentioned in brief, and explain what is not clear.2

    Shaikh Abu 'Uthmaan Muhammad Al-Anjaaree (hafidhahullaah) said: "So how did the

    Prophet (salallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) clarify that which was already revealed to us? He

    (salallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) clarified with details, either by revelation, by way of theQur`an and Sunnah, or when questions arose. As in the case when one asked himabout Dhulm(oppression), he said: It is Shirk. And when asked concerning Sidrat Al-Muntaha, he (salallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) said: It was Jibreel. And other than that. Sothe Prophet used to provide details. And if a questioner came with a question that theProphet (salallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) did not know the answer to, revelation wouldcome down to him.

    Hence the Prophet (salallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) clarified and gave detail in hisclarification. And from his action was detail. Allaah commanded us to establishthe salat, and the Prophet - by his actions - gave us a detailed description of the salat.

    And he (salallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) said: Pray as you have seen mepray. [Bukhaaree] Hence, the Prophet came as a clarifier of the Religion, with detailsand clarity for the Ummah. Thus, we are upon the clear way and the evident path ofthe Religion of Allaah. This does not accept ambiguity. This matter - meaning theReligion - does not accept what, my brothers? It does not accept ambiguity. For the

    Deen is clear and evident and explicit for everyone.

    The Prophet (salallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) left for us this Deen as the Salaf - from them

    Abu Hurairah (radiallaahu 'anhu wa arda) - have said: 'The Messenger of Allaah leftus, and there was not a bird flapping its two wings in the sky except that we

    have some knowledge concerning it.' Ibn Hibban recorded it with a sound chainof narration.

    Meaning there's no command except that we have detail concerning it, andthere's no prohibition except that it has been clarified with the utmost clarity.

    Likewise, Ikrimah (rahimahullaah) said: 'The Messenger of Allaah (salallaahu 'alayhi wa

    sallam) did not die except that he left us upon a clear methodology.' Look at this

    terminology. Ikrimah is saying that the Messenger of Allaah (salallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam)

    did not die until he had left us the path, the way, the minhaj as a clear methodology.Related by Ad-Daarimee, and the men in its chain are all trustworthy.

    Now this has become a clear issue, and it is a magnificent principle from theprinciples of al-Islaam. That we believe beyond the shadow of a doubt that theMessenger of Allaah left us upon whiteness (clarity). That the Prophet clarified to us

    with an unparalleled clarity of the truth, the Deen and the Command of Allaah. TheProphet (salallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) left behind clear details for everyone..."3

    Allaah's Messenger (sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam) said: I have left you upon clear proof

    (clarity), its night is like its day. No one deviates from it except one who isdestroyed. [Ahmad, Ibn Majah, Al-Haakim; declared Saheeh by Al-Albaanee]

    Allaah, The Most High, said:

    And thus do We explain the Ayaat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs,

    revelations, etc.) in detail, that the way of the Mujrimoon (criminals,polytheists, sinners), may become manifest. (Al-An'aam, ayah 55)

    In the previous lecture, Shaikh Al-Anjaaree (hafidhahullaah) had said: "The

    Prophet (salallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) came with al-Mufassal(that which is detailed and

    specific). When the Prophet (salallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) came, (he came) with al-Mufassal. And this is afaariq(that which distinguishes and differentiates) betweenthe da'watul-Haqq(the call to the Truth) and all of the other da'waat(all other calls).

    So beware, O 'Abdullaah, of the mujmalaat(the generalities)! Our da'wahisthe da'watus-Salafiyyah[i.e. it is clear and detailed and specific]. Fromthe mujmalaatis seeking knowledge (talabul-'Ilm), a general statement. Fromthe mujmalaatis giving importance to the books of Shaykhul-Islaam Ibn

    Taymiyyah. From the mujmalaat(generalities) is (saying), 'I am a graduate of the theIslaamic University (of al-Madeenah).' From the mujmalaatis 'Obedience to the Walee

    al-Amris obligatory.' From the mujmalaatis warning against the takfeerees."4

    One of the many deceptions and tricks that Ahlul-Bid'ah employ is putting forthgeneral texts concerning detailed situations, pretending to not know the detail and theexceptions and the specifics in order to deceive the Muslims and misguide them.

    For example, in order to seek support from the ignoramuses in their opposition to theclarification of the truth and refutations of falsehood - especially their own errors in'aqeedah and manhaj - Ahlul-Bid'ah (among them Ikhwanul Muslimoon) put forth the

    4[http://www.salafitalk.net/st/viewmessages.cfm?Forum=6&Topic=6435&sortby=desc] Meaning that all of

    these statements are general and not specific, and you will find everyone speaking with these terms. But whatthe Prophet (salallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) came with was specific and detailed, as the Shaikh further explained inhis lecture. ...

    Even some of the Khawaarij will outwardly say "rebelling against the rulers is haram," but when they feelcomfortable in their surroundings, they will add the phrase "unless he's oppressive" or "unless he'sunjust." And, of course, the ruler is not be rebelled against - even if he is oppressive or unjust, as has come inthe ahadeeth of Allaah's Messenger (salallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam). And keep in mind, these people with the

    ideology of the Khawaarij found/find fault with 'Uthmaan and 'Ali (radiallaahu 'anhum); rather their

    founder Dhul-Khwaisrah found fault with the Prophet of Allaah (salallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam)!!!

    Rather, they deem every ruler unjust or oppressive. And even when one of their own becomes a ruler, theystill rebel. They are Khawaarij.

    Prophet's (salallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) hadeeth that encourages the concealing of thesins of one's brother, and its virtues.

    When, of course, there's no contradiction.

    For example, if you see your brother committing a sin such as drinking alcohol andyou see from him that he is not advertising it or he's in fact trying to hide it, then youadvise him in private and you conceal this about him. And you will in-sha`Allaahenterinto that hadeeth and be rewarded, and haveyoursins concealed.

    However, if the sinner sins openly - advertising his sin - such as the one who callsto opposing the Qur`an and Sunnah by rallying others to rebel against the rulers, or bycalling to the worship of the graves or by calling to the denial of Allaah's Attributes orby calling to curse the companions, then those who have the ability are commandedto refute him and his falsehood (Shirk, Bid'ah) for the benefit of the Ummah - so thatthe Muslims do not follow him upon that crooked path of misguidance.

    In this case, only a "mute shaytan" would remain quiet, as the scholars have clarifiedregarding the one who has the ability to refute but remains quiet.5 In the first case ofthe individual not sinning openly, the scholars have said this is what is intended by a"praiseworthy concealment." However, in the case of the one misguiding

    5Allaah, Ta'aala, said:

    Verily, those who conceal the clear proofs, evidences and the guidance, which We have sent down,after We have made it clear for the people in the Book, they are the ones cursed by Allaah and cursedby the cursers. (Al-Baqarah, ayah 159)

    Student Abu Khadeejah (hafidhahullaah), while reading from Shaikh Saalih al-Fawzaan's (hafidhahullaah) SharhofSharh-us-Sunnah, relayed that this ayah concerning those who conceal the guidance is not limited to theInnovators, but also includes those who remain silent concerning Ahlul-Bid'ah. Allaah's Messenger (salallaahu

    'alayhi wa sallam) said: The curses of Allaah, the angels and all of mankind are upon those whoinnovate and the one who accommodates them.

    the Muslims, calling them to oppose the Qur`an and Sunnah, then this silence andconcealment is "dis-praiseworthy" and in imitation of shaytan.

    There's no contradiction whatsoever! Rather, this is from the detail of the religion.And failure to refute and warn against misguidance and falsehood and evil bringsabout division and disunity, and incurs the Anger of Allaah, and is a reason for theslave's supplication to not be answered.6

    Another famous example of the tricks that Ikhwanul Mufliseen employ in order toseek support from the ignoramuses in their objective to abolish the refutations offalsehood - again, especially their own errors in 'aqeedah and manhaj - is they putforth the general text from the Qur`an and Sunnah regarding the prohibition ofbackbiting.

    And again, of course, there is no contradiction.

    The origin of backbiting is that it is not only haram, but rather a major sin. However,there are six legislated exceptions to (permissible forms of) backbiting that areextracted from the Qur`an and Sunnah.7 Among them is warning against theInnovators. In fact, some scholars don't even call refuting the innovators an exceptionto backbiting; rather they say: this is from Naseeha (Sincere Advice) to theUmmah, and from the door of enjoining the good and forbidding the evil.

    The Messenger of Allaah (salallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) warned against Hurqus Dhul-Khwaisrah at-Tamimee - behind his back! - and warned with precise detail against himand those who would adopt his ideology after him. And the Messenger of Allaah

    6http://www.salafyink.com/aqeedah/BeingSilentHizbiyyah.pdf&

    http://www.salafyink.com/aqeedah/ShirkBidahDivideUmmah.pdf

    7 Imam An-Nawawee (rahimahullah) listed them and explained them - with detail - in chapter 256 of his

    famous bookRiyaadh-us-Saliheen. The Innovators are mentioned three times in these six exceptions tobackbiting. But be warned that the english translation (of Darus-Salaam) is missing the detail

    regarding warning against the Innovator that should in the sub-section of the fourth exception; it is oddly notthere. In the spanish translation translated by Ahmed Safi, the whole section has been omitted. AllaahulMusta'aan! Very odd, to say the least!

    Allaah's Help is sought!

    (salallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) warned against the Qadariyah by name. And likewise, theSahaaba and the rest of the Salaf warned against deviants by name. And this is whatone finds in the Qur`an that Allaah warned against deviants and false religions and

    false beliefs and ideologies. And Allaah commanded His Messenger (salallaahu 'alayhiwa sallam) - and all the Messengers ('alayhimi salaam) - to warn against ad-Dajjal(the

    Anti-Christ). And the anti-Christ is a human being!

    Shaikh Al-Anjaaree also said: "Whoever wishes to depart from that which is detailedto that which is general (and) whoever wishes to depart from that which separates(between truth and falsehood) to that false unity, then in realitythis one hasdeparted from Sirat-ul-Mustaqeem(The Straight Path)."8

    He has the left The Straight Path!

    The truth is these Ikhwanees don't want to separate between truth and falsehood.This is why the Imam of al-Jarh wat-Ta'deel, al-'Allamah Rabee' Bin Haadee al-Madkhalee - hafidhahullaah - called them a dangerous enemy to Ahlus-Sunnah.

    Shaikh Rabee' said: "Nowadays there exists in the arena those who wage waragainst Ahlus-Sunnah and call themghulaat(extremists). So they haveinsultingly named Ahlus-Sunnah withghuloo(extremism), with which theyattach them to the misguided groups. They have derisively named Ahlus-

    Sunnah withghuloobecause they (Ahlus-Sunnah) place the people of bid'ah intheir appropriate level - just as the Salaf-us-Saleh placed them - and they deal

    with those people in accordance to the path of Salafiyyah, the way those peopleof the past (such as the companions) dealt with the people of bid'ah.

    However, these people do not desire that, they do not want for you to say thatIkhwanul Muslimeen are such, nor that the Tableeghis are such, nor that soand so a group is such. They say (about themselves) that we have a vast andexpansive manhaj, it includes Ahlus-Sunnah and it includes the entireUmmah, it includes Ahlus-Sunnah. And according to them Ahlus-Sunnah is

    Jama'ah at-Tableegh and Ikhwanul Muslimeen.

    The sect of Ikhwanul Muslimeen includes other sects from the misguidedsects whom Ikhwanul Muslimeen bring together, such as the Rawaafid along

    with their various groups and the Soofiyah along with their various groups.

    All people of bid'ah are present within the organization known as IkhwanulMuslimeen - even the Christians enter into this organization!

    So when you say that they are people of bid'ah, they describe you withghuloo.The Tableeghis take bay'ah(oath of obedience) with the four Soofi paths;Soofiyah has within it hulool(deviant belief that Allaah exists within Hiscreation) and Wahdat al-Wujood(deviant belief that Allaah and His creationare one and the same), Shirk, bid'ah and misguidance. When you say aboutthem that they are Innovators, they describe you with ghuloo. Such people arefrom the most dangerous enemies to Ahlus-Sunnah, so beware of them andtheir trickery."9

    And keep in mind that these same tricksters and deceivers such as IkhwanulMufliseen actually employ the like of this detail when it is in accordance with theirdesires.

    If they are injured and are unable to pray standing - because the origin is to praystanding - they know that they have a license to pray seated, and if they are unable to

    pray seated, they know that they can pray laying down, etc...and they know this fromthe hadeeth that explains this detail. They know this and they themselves employ thisdetail when it suits them. You don't hear from them the same doubts in this affair.

    Likewise, the origin is to fast in Ramadan, but if the person is sick or travelling, he hasa license to break the fast, and make up the day after Ramadaan. They know this, andthey themselves employ this detail when it suits them. Again, you don't hear fromthem the same doubts in this affair.

    And the same with zakat (if one doesn't have the means) and Hajj (if one doesn't have

    the means or ability) and many, many other matters of the Religion, such as wuddoo(making tayamum in the absence of water). This is a detailed Religion.

    And others who after salatul-Subh(i.e. Salatul Fajr) will immediately stand up and startpraying. And if you come to teach them of the prohibition of praying after Subhuntilthe sun rises, they'll ignore the detail and resort to the origin and say: 'Is praying

    haram?' And likewise, some of them insist on fasting on either or both of the 'Eids,aoodhubillaah! And they will say, "Is fasting haram?"Yes, it is haram on this day,

    yes! This is from the detail of the religion.

    Yet these people don't have to be told twice that - although the origin is to stop at ared light and remain there waiting for the green light - that they can make a right turnduring a red light if:

    a) THE ROAD IS CLEAR, andb) There is no, NO-TURN-ON-RED sign.

    Thus, when the road is clear and there's nothing preventing them, they don't have anyproblem making a right. Why? Because it suits them. It's in accordance with theirdesires.

    Likewise, these people don't have to be told twice that such and such a product is$100 - UNLESS YOU HAVE THAT 50%-OFF COUPON. If they have thatcoupon, they will give the cashier $50, not $100. Why? Because it suits them. It's inaccordance with their desires.

    And thus, from them are those who have horrible manners with Allaah. You say toone of them, "akhee, baarak Allaahu feek, this person you have invited to give thislecture calls to Wahdatul-Wujood and worshipping the graves - both of theseaffairs are kufr. This would be a major fitnah for the community." And he says backto you, "akhee, backbiting is haram. Fear Allaah."

    Na'am, backbiting is haram and fearing Allaah is a must, however this is notbackbiting, and you also need to fear Allaah.

    Rather, from the benefits of Taqwa is distinguishing truth from falsehood. In hisbookThe Benefits of Fearing Allaah, Shaikh Muhammad Ibn Salih al-'Uthaimeen(rahimahullaah) mentioned as the fourth benefit of taqwa: "Taqwa causes the servant of

    ___________________________________________________________________________________10

    Allaah to be successful in distinguishing the truth from falsehood, and to haveknowledge of each one of them. Allaah, The Most High, says:

    O you who believe! If you obey and fear Allaah, He will grant you Furqaan acriterion (to judge between right and wrong)... (Al-Anfal, ayah 29)."

    And in the tafseer of this ayah from Tafseer Ibn Katheer - which is also included inShaikh al-'Uthaimeen's highly beneficial book - is the following statement of ImamIbn Katheer (rahimahullaah): "Whoever has taqwa of Allaah by obeying His commandsand abandoning what He has prohibitted will be given the ability to recognize truthfrom falsehood."

    Another benefit of Taqwa that Shaikh al-'Uthaimeen brought: is defending theReligion. He said: "Indeed, taqwa is a means of attaining guardianship of Allaah'sDeen. For verily, the guardians of Allaah's Deen are the ones who fear Him. Allaah,

    The Most High, says:

    ...Its (true) guardians are not but the Mutaqoon... (Al-Anfal, ayah 34)."

    So true taqwa leads one to distinguish truth from falsehood, as well as defending theReligion - and not defending the Innovators who innovate into the Religion.10

    SubhanAllaahi Wa Bi-Hamdihi.

    Ahlul-Bid'ah pretend to not know the detail and the specifics and the exceptions. Andthis pretending of theirs is from ignorance anyway, because they cannot deceive The

    All-Knowing, The All-Aware, The One Who will judge us all on the Day ofJudgment.

    Corruption in the heart leads to corruption upon the tongue and limbs. ImamsBukhari and Muslim recorded from the hadeeth of Nu'man ibn Basheer that theMessenger (salallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam) said:Verily within the body is a morsel of

    flesh. Whenever it is sound, the whole body will be righteous and sound. Andwhenever it becomes corrupted, then the whole body will become corrupted. Itis the heart.

    As Shaikh Muhammad bin 'Abdillaah al-Imaam (hafidhahullaah) said: "Allaah will makeapparent the actions of the heart concerning good and evil deeds on the Day of

    Judgement. Then the person who has a wicked heart will be disgraced in front of allof humanity, all of creation! Hence, the actions of the heart - that which angers Allaahand wages war against Allaah, and no one is able to be aware of that except for Allaah

    'Azza wa Jall - will be present on the Day of Resurrection.

    That person will be disgraced. How many people in the dunya think it will beeasier (more likely) to have the earth swallow him up than people becomingaware of his evil intentions, his corrupted goals. And suddenly, on the Day ofResurrection, he will be disgraced before all of creation.11

    And thus these people of bid'ah and dis-praiseworthy concealment deceive those whoare not firm, and thus it becomes clear that these people are suppressing the extent ofthe manifestation of distinguishment between truth and falsehood.

    Shaikh Al-Anjaaree (hafidhahullaah) said: "There will come some obstruction in theroad and some resistence to this poor Sunni, Salafee, the detailed one, the companionof the evident criterion. From Who? From the people who gather under thebanners from the children of Islamic political movements and from the parties ofbid'ah who doubt this magnificent principle (of detail and of distinguishing betweentruth and falsehood). And the companions of banners, companions of Islamicpolitical methodologies, the companions of bid'ah and innovated groups whocontinually say, "Stop. Why are you always constantly preaching this principle (separating betweentruth and falsehood; calling to Tawheed, forbidding Shirk, calling to the Sunnah, forbidding bid'ah,refuting falsehood, forbidding evil). Why are you on this ancient affair? Refrain from it."

    The Shaikh (hafidhahullaah) also said that this resistance makes the person who is notfirm - upon Salafiyyah, Sunniyah - to harbor doubts as a result of this resistance. They(the political groups) lie in wait for this poor Salafee, and bring to him new affairs and

    new objectives every day, day after day. Whereas the truth is one and does not change.

    In his excellent bookAt-Taqwa and Its Effects and the Characteristics of thePious and their Recompense, Shaikh Rabee' (hafidhahullaah) said: "When Hishamibn 'Abdil-Malik (who was the ruler) executed two of the people of bid'ah - fromamongst them Al-Ja'd ibn Dirham - Hisham was regretful; they made him regret. Soone of the scholars wrote to him and said to him, 'By Allaah the executing of those

    people was better than the killing of two thousand Persians and Romans,meaning the disbelievers, because this one corrupts the children of the

    Muslims and squanders our main assets.' ...Because of this, [many from amongst]the Salaf said: 'Indeed, Ahlul-Bid'ah are more harmful to Islaam then theexternal enemies.' Why? Because this one damages from within and, after that,opens the door for the enemy, saying to him, 'Come in!' When the Soofis and thepeople of bid'ah and misguidance ruined the Islaamic world, and colonization arrivedand took hold of it, they found it to be a ready morsel. And when the Tartars came,they found the Muslims to be a ready morsel. Why? Because bid'ah had pulverizedthem and crushed them completely. It did not make them deserving of the Help of

    Allaah, Tabarak wa Ta'aala, so those who were advancing slowly upon them arrived."

    The Prophet (salallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) used to warn against bid'ah in every khutba -and said it is the 'most evil of affairs' (Sharrul-Umoor) - even though there was nota single bid'ah in his time!

    As for the Salafee, he is firmly grounded upon the original, ancient affair,12 whatMuhammad (salallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) and his companions were upon. If hecontinues upon Salafiyyah, he will become a stranger. And Allaah's Messengersaid: Glad tidings are for the strangers.13

    12http://www.forgottensunnan.blogspot.com/2012/12/salafiyyah-is-correct-islaam.html

    13The shaikh said: The Strangers will be attacked by two groups: the opposers, and then those who forsake

    them. The Prophet said: There will never cease to be a group manifest upon the truth - not harmed bythose who oppose them nor those who forsake them - until the Command of Allaah comes. And thestrangers do not fear those who oppose them or forsake them; they are not concerned with those whooppose them or forsake them.

    Shaikh Al-Anjaaree (hafidhahullaah) said: "Imam At-Tabaree said: 'The basis of theFurqan according to us is separating between two things - and distinguishingbetween them - and that is by way of: (1) making the truth evident and

    (2) aiding it and other than that from the means of distinguishing betweentruth and falsehood.' Therefore, oh brothers, if we actualize the criterion, and thiscriterion is actualized with correct Eeman and establishment of Tawheed,

    which Prophet Muhammad (salallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) and his companions wereupon, then the correct Religion and the strong methodology will become manifest."

    And the Shaikh (hafidhahullaah) then proceeded to explain how the slave draws near toAllaah by implementing the details, and the detailed methodology - "not the Ikhwaneemethodology, not the Soofi methodology, not the Tahreeri methodology, not the

    Takfeeri methodology."

    The Shaikh (hafidhahullaah) also said words that should be engraved in gold: "Whoeverhates the criterion (distinguishing between truth and falsehood), then he hatesthe truth, which is The Religion (Islaam)."

    Whoever hates the criterion (distinguishing between truth and falsehood), thenhe hates the truth, which is The Religion (Islaam).

    Whoever hates the criterion (distinguishing between truth and falsehood), then

    he hates the truth, which is The Religion (Islaam).

    Are you paying attention ya Abu Usaamah Adh-Dhahabie! Are you paying attentionya Yusuf Estes! Are you paying attention ya Shadeed Muhammad! Are you payingattention ya Abu 'Aliyah Surkheel Sherrif! Are you paying attention ya Muhammad

    Ibn Taymiyyah said the groups are three:a- those who are aided and victoriousb- those who opposec- those who forsake (even though they may be Muslim)

    There is not a fourth group; this is Ibn Taymiyyah's statement.

    Shaikh Al-Anjaaree had earlier said that whoever is troubled or irritated by the separation betwen truth andfalsehood, then he has weakness with him, and illness has taken root in his heart, and he has been afflicted

    with something.

    Hamza Yusuf! And all those still alive whom you follow in opposition toMuhammad's guidance, and all those still alive whom follow you - in opposition toMuhammad's guidance (salallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam)!

    Whoever hates the criterion (distinguishing between truth and falsehood), thenhe hates the truth, which is The Religion (Islaam).

    Something of grave importance that needs to be addressed here is that denying orhating anything that Allaah revealed is Kufr, from the violations that expel one fromthe Religion!14 And refuge in Allaah is taken from this!

    So these people refute the one who warns against bid'ah and Shirk, but the caller tobid'ah and Shirk (and magic) is invited to talk, and even paid to do so, and well fed,and they place his picture on a poster, and advertise this and his scheduled talk on the

    walls of the masjid, in the media, on the internet. Aoodhubillaah! Aoodhubillaah!

    There are no contradictions or loopholes in this Religion, ya ikhwaan.

    SubhanAllaahi Wa Bi-Hamdihi.

    Thus, these evil people pin an ayah of Allaah against other ayat of Allaah - accusingAllaah of contradicting Himself, aoodhubillaah! - when the deficiency simply lies intheir own understanding, and/or the corruption of their intention.

    Imam Ahmad recorded that 'Amr bin Shu'ayb said that his father said that hisgrandfather said: "I and my brother were present in a gathering, which is moreprecious to me than red camels. My brother and I came and found that some of theleaders of the Companions of the Messenger of Allaah (salallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam)

    were sitting close to a door of his. We did not like the idea of being separate from

    them, so we sat near the room. They then mentioned an ayah and began disputinguntil they raised their voices.

    The Messenger of Allaah was so angry that when he went out, his face was red. Hethrew sand on them and said to them:

    Behold and take care, O people! This is how the nations before you weredestroyed, because of their disputing with their Prophets and theircontradicting parts of the Books with other parts. The Qur`an does not

    contradict itself. Rather, it testifies to the truth of itself. Therefore, whatever ofit you have knowledge in, then implement it, and whatever you do not know ofit, then refer it to those who have knowledge in it.

    Ahmad also recorded that 'Abdullah bin 'Amr said: "I went to the Messenger ofAllaah one day. When we were sitting, two men disputed about an ayah, and theirvoices became loud. The Prophet (salallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) said:

    "Verily, the nations before you were destroyed because of their disagreementsover the Book." Muslim and An-Nasa`i recorded this hadeeth.

    This is why some from the righteous predecessors used to say: "How many peopleseek to find fault with a statement that is correct, and their downfall is faultyunderstanding?"

    One of the reasons for this ignorance and deception of Ahlul-Bid'ah is their lack ofpatience in seeking knowledge. Due to this, they don't properly learn the Usool (the

    fundamentals, the 'Aqeedah, Allaah's Beautiful Names and Perfect Attributes, andwhat they necessitate) of the Religion, thus they display bad manners with Allaahand His reports (Qur`an and Sunnah) when the reports reach them. And thus they

    approach the Qur`an and Sunnah with bad manners and lack of respect, brazenlyplacing their opinions and principles and objectives above the Qur`an and Sunnah.

    As student Abul-'Abbaas Moosa Richardson (hafidhahullaah) recently explained that thereason why the Khawaarij slander the Salafee scholars by calling them "scholars ofmenses"is because some of these Khawaarij attended some lessons when they wereyounger, and they noticed that when beginning Fiqh, the scholars began

    with Tahara(purification) - which is a condition for the Salat to be accepted andenters into many areas of Fiqh. So when the Khawaarij noticed the scholars goinginto detail when teaching, these people did not have the patience to sit and learn thisdetail, so they left the circles of knowledge, and thus went astray. They couldn't getpast Tahara. They didn't have patience. So these days, when slandering the scholars,the Khawaarij use this term because in their mind the scholars are still teachingmenses 25 years later!15

    Even though they are aware of the fact that details exist, they don't have patience tolearn it. For example, they are hasty in making takfeer, and they don't have thepatience to learn the Usool of the Religion, to learn when takfeer can be applied, by

    whom, and theMawani'(those matters that would prevent takfeer) that need to beremoved - by a scholar - before takfeer can be applied to a Muslim - again, by ascholar.

    These people who don't learn the details like to put everyone under the same blanket,like when Sayyid Qutb made takfeer of the whole Ummah even though the Prophet(salallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) said: There will never cease to be a group from mynation manifest upon the truth - unharmed by those oppose them and by those

    who forsake them - until the Command of Allaah comes. [Muslim]

    Likewise, the Khawaarij have trouble differentiating between Major Shirk and minorshirk, so if they see from the ruler (whom they fix their binoculars on) any judgmentor action opposing what Allaah revealed, they are quick to shout from the minbar, orbehind a microphone, or type into their blog: "So and so is a kaafir, Taghoot,

    Fir'awn..." to the end of these names. If the explanation from Ibn 'Abaas and 'Atta

    reach them concerning the fact that this is minor Kufr (unless you know that in hisheart he declares this judgment - opposing Allaah's judgment - to be permissible, orequal to Allaah's judgment or better), they say back to you: "Just give me a Yes or no

    answer. Leave out the details." Or "answer me - Yes or no, no detail - is it Shirk?"

    They don't have patience. As Shaikh 'Adil Sayyid (hafidhahullaah) said last year aboutsome of these people, they only believe in strength - brute force, butting heads.

    They don't have patience. This religion is a religion of details.

    For example, do you treat and give da'wah the same way to a person who is eager tofollow the truth, maa`sha-Allaah, as you do to an arrogant and obstinate caller tobid'ah who has made himself an obstacle in the call to the truth? No.

    Allaah said:

    Invite (mankind, Oh Muhammad) to the Way of your Lord with wisdom (i.e.

    with the Divine Inspiration and the Qur`an) and fair preaching, and argue withthem in a way that is better. Truly, your Lord knows best who has gone astrayfrom His Path, and He is the Best Aware of those who are guided. (An-Nahl,ayah 125)

    So in this ayah, Allaah commanded with different ways of giving da'wah depending onwho the subject is. As the scholars - among them Shaikh Taraheeb Ad-Dosiri(hafidhahullaah) - have insightfully explained from the Sunnah:

    Using wisdom ------> in giving da'wah to one who wants good, loves good, but is

    ignorant of good: so you tell him the salat (prayer) is like this and its reward is likethis, siyam (fasting) is like this and its reward is like this, and so forth.

    Using admonition -----> to one who is lazy, laxed, short in doing good, whosedesire for good is little, whose desire for evil is stronger: so it is not enough that youcall him to good, like the first type. For this type, you must also remind him with

    admonition, and the fear of Allaah, and the bad results of evil.

    Argue in a way that is best ----> with those who turn away from good, runningtowards evil, supporting evil, have become an obstacle toward that which is good, andpushes (calls to) evil. So the Shaikh said that it is not enough to call this person with

    what you called the first two. In addition, you must argue in a way that is best, explainthe falsehood he is upon, remove his doubts, and support the truth with evidences.16

    And likewise, that giving da'wah itself has pillars that the caller must adhere to.17 AndJihaad has conditions that must be met.18 And likewise, wuddoo and salat and hajj,etc... This religion is a religion of details. We have even been properly taught themanners and etiquettes of going to the bathroom.

    This religion is a religion of details, with specifics and exceptions.

    When 'Aa`ishah (radiallaahu 'anha) was approached by a woman who asked 'Aa`ishah

    (radiallaahu 'anha) in a manner that people upon the truth don't ask: Why is it that wemake up the days that we miss in Ramadan (due to menses), but not the prayers? Sodue to the manner that the woman asked the question, 'Aa`ishah (radiallaahu 'anha)

    addressed the manhaj aspect of the question, and asked her in return:Are you fromHoorooriyah (the Khawaarij)?

    The Khawaarij (and all of Ahlul-Bid'ah) have major issues and doubts concerning thedetails of the Religion.

    This religion is a religion of detail, and Allaah tests us however He wills, and He is notasked about what He wills, rather we will be judged.

    When asked regarding the wisdom of praying toward the Ka'bah, the Permanent

    Committee (headed by Shaikh Baaz, rahimahullaah) answered:

    "It is known that the duty of a Muslim is to carry out Allaah's commands asmuch as possible and refrain from committing what He has prohibited.Whether one grasps its wisdom or not, one must believe that Allaah commands

    only that which is of benefit, and prohibits that which is harmful. All of Hislegislations contain wisdom which He knows; He reveals of this wisdom whatHe wishes so that believers may increase their Eeman (Faith) and witholds

    what He wishes so that believers may increase their submission to Him..."19

    Allaah, Ta'aala, said the believers are those who say: We hear and obey!

    The only saying of the faithful believers, when they are called to Allaah (HisWords, the Qur`an) and His Messenger to judge between them, is that theysay: "We hear and we obey." And such are the prosperous ones (who will liveforever in Paradise). (An-Noor, ayah 51)

    And Allaah knows best. And all Praise is for Allaah.
