This is a summarised translation of Sheikh Muhammad Ba Jammāl's advice to Sheikh As-Suhaimi
#صالح_السحيمي
1. A voice clip of Sheikh Salih As-Suhaimi, may Allāh preserve him, was circulated. In this clip, he was asked by some of the Barāmikah who were complaining about the division and discord among the Salafis, referring to themselves. The clip mentioned that two major trials occurred related to Abu Al-Hasan Al-Misri and to Al-Hajoori, and that both of these trials have now faded away.

BENEFIT 316: Severity and Harshness: A Subjective and Objective Perspective
SUBJECTIVE:
You may perceive something as harsh and severe due to your personal reasons, while others might see it as an expression of gentleness, kindness, wisdom, and protective jealousy for the truth.
The key consideration here is adherence to the truth. If what is mentioned is the truth, whatever you perceive as severity and harshness will not render it false. And if what is mentioned is false, no amount of…
The task of applying the principles of Jarh wa Ta'deel to pass judgements on individuals lies with those who are qualified—those who have a thorough understanding of the reasons for criticism and the appropriate methods to justify them. If someone is unqualified, they should avoid engaging in this matter.
This much is clear to everyone, right?
However, what we aim to understand is whether students of knowledge…
BENEFIT 315: Refuting Errors Without Naming Individuals?!
Question: Is it permissible to mention the name of an innovator when refuting them, or is it sufficient to refute the falsehood without specifying them?
Sheikh Yahya hafidahullah:
The books of Jarh wa Ta'deel, the books of rudood against innovators, and the books of ’Aqeedah all include naming individuals and groups. They mention names of sects such as the Khawārij, the Rawafiḍh, the Mu’tazilah, the Qadariyyah,…
This advice falls under the principle of mutual encouragement toward truth, patience, cooperation in piety and righteousness. It is not a reproachment. Although, reproach is necessary sometimes, as it
Reproachment, when done properly, benefits relationships, whether between a person and their child, neighbour, or brother. There is no harm in that.
I reiterate: if you believe you are benefitting here, remain with calmness and tranquility...with full liberty, as long as it is within the bounds of obedience to Allah, His Book, and the Sunnah of His Messenger. He is thanked and may Allāh reward him. I thank such a…
"...A devil lies in wait for the servants of Allah at every opportunity. This is advice to my brothers: To those who believe they are conducting themselves with proper manners—among honourable brothers, may Allāh preserve them and those who listen attentively—and with good character, know that we are all in need of continual self-enrichment. This (centre) is a place for self-enrichment.
For those who feel…
Opt. 1: We would gladly support the establishment of another Markaz, as the more Salafi centres, the better. However, this must not come at the cost of brotherhood or through a restricted application of walaa wal baraa!! See the link for more details:
https://t.me/AlHajoori/730
Opt. 2: Conspiring against other Muslims is not the best approach.
Opt. 3: If divisions and disunity within the Salafi ranks does not…
"...It is incumbent upon the brothers in this case; when students of knowledge become alienated, they insult insult one another, have animosity towards one another, it is incumbent upon the people of goodness amongst the students of knowledge to reconcile between those who are estranged among fellow students of knowledge. They are the most deserving of fostering connections. How can there be estrangement and…
31. If you truly love the Salafi da’wah, then you should respect these men who are dedicated to knowledge, teaching, and calling to Allah. If you doubt my words, send your messengers to Yemen without informing anyone. Let them visit our centres and their centres, and they will see the truth. They will find out who is causing fitnah and who is genuinely benefiting the Muslims. But some of you seem to want a diluted…
We work, and they will work, and the final judgment is with Allah.
21. I give you glad tidings: Ahlus Sunnah, whom you claim are involved in fitnah, will not be affected by your words or those of others. They are only increased in steadfastness, and your words will only bring shame upon you. By Allah, your words will only bring disgrace upon you because the people are aware of the truth. They know the reality, and they know Muhammad Al-Imam and his followers. If you inquire about…
14. What is being spread about them is full of lies and falsehoods—as is the way of the Hizbiyyeen. They praise Muhammad Al-Imam and make him out to be someone he isn't. Rather, Muhammad Al-Imam shoul
15. We, though younger and with less knowledge than you, have understood the reality of these groups. Allah has guided us to see that the one you praise—who you, along with others like As-Suhaimi, commend—has a clear weakness in his manhaj (i.e. Muhammad Al-Imam). There are those who have acknowledged this in their own ranks, such as Al-Bura'ee who confirmed that there is a weakness in their manhaj. So how can you…
1. It is reported that someone asked Sheikh Wasee'ullah Abbas about the Fitnah in Yemen. The nature of the inquiry raises some suspicion regarding this questioner.
2. According to the questioner's reports, Sheikh Wasee'ullah Abbas provided advice and mentioned that there are scholars in Yemen whom he recommends to study under, such as Sheikh Muhammad Al-Imam and Sheikh Al-Bura'ee. He encouraged the individual to…

True Sisterhood
Sheikh Ibn Baz, may Allāh have mercy on him, said [edited (1)]:
"Your sister is the one who advises you, reminds you, and guides you. She is not your sister who is heedless of you, turns away from you, and abandons you. Rather, your true sister is the one who sincerely advises you, admonishes you, and reminds you of Allāh. She calls you to Allāh, clarifies the path of salvation so you may follow…

نصيحة الإخوان
(Advice to the Brothers)
Compiled by Sheikh Sa'eed Da'aas (may Allāh have mercy on him)
This was one of the first poems to be compiled relating to Abdurrahman Al-Adeni's fitnah
Contemplate the following lines:
إن الذي ينكح الدهماء في لهف
حتى إذا ضمها وارتاع بالوطر
He who engages partisanship/fanaticism in haste,
Until he embraces her, overwhelmed by desire,
يصير لا يعرف المعروف لو بزغت
كالشمس…
Teaching the works of Muhammad ibn Abdilwahhab, referencing scholars such as Imam Ahmad and Sheikhul Islam Ibn Taymiyyah, and quoting contemporary figures like Sheikh Ibn Baz, Albani, Uthaymeen, and Muqbil are all undoubtedly praiseworthy acts. However, it is equally crucial to ensure that we avoid quoting individuals like Abul Hasan Al-Ma'ribi, Al-Maghrawi, Ali Al-Halabi, Muhammad Al-Imam, AbdulMālik Ramadhani, and…
Sheikh Yahya hafidahullah says:
I sincerely advise my brothers to proclaim the truth openly, for it will brighten their faces and purify their Da’wah. I fear the weakening of the Da’wah, by Allāh. We may experience some weakness, but this is everyone's Da’wah, and it should not be hindered by laziness or someone saying, "Stay silent." My brother, we follow a Salafi methodology and adhere to a clear call. Silence on…
