A MEMBER RESPONDS:
"What shaikh yusuf hafidahullaah was referring to was without doubt someone known to be from ahl as sunnah, whom knowledge was already taken from, but who had then fallen into mistakes. As for ahl al bidah or someone not known to be upon the sunnah, then his asl was he was not to be taken from in the first place. If this person claims now to be with ahlis sunnah, or that he repented and left off his bidah, this does NOT mean we automatically take from him now..."
RESPONSE:
Are you saying that the speech of Sheikh Yusuf Al-Jazaa'iri doesn't apply because Sheikh Hisham At-Tahiri's Asl (origin) is not Sunnah?! If so, then this is extremely contradictory!
CONTRADICTION 1:
One of the more knowledgeable brothers in this group wrote:
"5. Using the speech of Shaykh Yahya Hafidhahullah and Shaykh Fawzaan Hafidhahullah, on the subject matter of Tabdee. This a reoccurring misunderstanding, Tabdee is not the only reason for stopping the taking knowledge from a person, or to not promote a person to the masses, so it's not correct to tie it to this, and bring up this topic everytime someone is advised against..." [end of quote]
My response was: This is indeed a recurring misunderstanding!

CONTRADICTION 2:
I contacted this brother on Telegram to establish if it was me intended when he shared a public message containing "some posers to knowledge". During the conversation, he made the following admission:
"But i hope you can see besides all the back and forth, what is important is that there is clearly a mistake being made here, in inviting Muhammad ibn Hisham at-Tahiri, whom I have actually known probably before anyone involved here, and whom we studied the book thalathatul usool with previously when he returned to kuwait from saudi 17 years ago. I mentioned something about this previously, that we used to call him weekly when we were still with Ubaid and spubs. But when they deviated, we left them all alhamdulillaah."
CONTRADICTION 3:
One of your main points of criticism against Sheikh Hisham was him not LEAVING his Sheikh Ubaid; who was once a Salafi by everyone's admission.

CONTRADICTION 4:
Your claim (that his Asl is not Sunnah) not only goes against the speech of the brother under contradiction 1, it also contradicts the speech of the scholars:
