Meanwhile, the one who says, ‘Allāh the Almighty said’ — citing an Āyah in warning, upon the Manhaj of the Salaf, and warning against errors — even if they don’

Whoever follows the path of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ in Al-jarḥ wa At-taʿdīl and in matters of creed, adherence, and calling to refute the people of desires, upon the way of his noble companions (may Allāh be pleased with them), and the way of the Tābiʿīn — the authors of those sound and reliable works — then such a person, insha Allāh, is most deserving of the description of that victorious group. There were individuals during the lifetime of the Sheikh — may Allah have mercy on him — who had a desire for Tamyee’, but they were unable to express it openly or display it publicly. When he passed away, they attempted to expand their efforts a little, but they were struck by the fitnah of Abul Ḥasan. Abul Ḥasan caused ruin — he failed in his attempt to spread Tamyee’. He couldn’t water down anything significant; he merely dragged along those already inclined to it. He watered down what could be watered down, lost what could be lost, and Allāh preserved the da‘wah... ...As for us in Yemen, take this as a beneficial point, in shā’ Allāh: “Whoever attempts to water down the religion — ends up watered down himself — while the da‘wah leaps over him and continues on its path.” That’s it — we want this to be taken as a principle: The people of Yemen have grown accustomed to a strong and firm Manhaj. Ahlus Sunnah have been raised upon this. As for those who may have picked up some Tamyee’ ideas from the books of Abul Ḥasan or others, scribbled down here and there — that won’t be of benefit here. In other countries, such things might cause confusion or hardship, but with us, they have no influence. This kind of material simply doesn’t gain traction here. It might find success in other lands, but here, it holds no value. People are disinterested — they see it as a worthless product, something rejected and unsellable. It’s like an item that’s expired — just like yogurt (which they call “ya'ourt” in Algeria) that’s passed its expiry date..." [شرحه لصحيح مسلم كتاب الوصية الشريط رقم(2)]
