ANALYSING SH. AT-TAHIRI (5)

Praise of Salafi scholars Host: Briefly, what have the Salafis contributed over the past fifty or sixty years since the Nakba? I believe it’s now been around sixty-five or seventy-five years. What have the Salafis done for the Palestinian cause? Sheikh: There is a book by Sheikh Saleem Al-Hilali titled السلفيون والقضية الفلسطينية 'The Salafis and the Palestinian Cause,' which is an excellent book. It demonstrates that the Salafis have indeed made substantial contributions to the Palestinian cause—through clarification, jihad, action, and sincere advice. Even if their only support had been the assistance they provided at many critical moments, that alone would have been sufficient.
