Thus, evidently and sadly, Abu Usama displays no qualms in working alongside Innovators who themselves (mostly) free themselves of the Salafi Manhaj, rather he

🎯 Secondly: The Salaf were known for their striving in seeking Knowledge, Dawah and their diligence in educating, cultivating and producing well-adept students of knowledge. Al Imaam Muqbil Al Wad’iee says: “It is upon us all to admonish one another with the Taqwa of Allaah as well as seriousness and striving in gaining knowledge for indeed it is the path of success in this time-era, and it is that by way of which we are able to distinguish between the person of Truth and the person of Falsehood and between Guidance and Misguidance” [see Ghaarat Al Ashrita 107/1] ● Turning now to Abu Usama Ad-Dhahabi, where are the students he has produced in his 20+ years of giving Dawah, such that he be referred to as an unparralled, second to none Dawah Machine? ● Where are the Huffadh of the Quran, proficient speakers of Arabic whom he has cultivated and produced during this time-period? ⛔ Rather that which Abu Usama Ad-Dhahabi is known for (notwithstanding his seemingly endless list of controversies) is his staunch defence of the people of falsehood (such as Abdur-Rahmaan Abdul-Khaaliq and Abul Hasan al-Ma’rabee), his affiliation with Suhaib Hasan and also his cooperation and work alongside the people of innovation. ⚠ So…. no Clear Salafi Call, Distinct from the people of Innovations after 20 odd years you say? 🎯 Unfortunately not. (Not for Abu Usama at least). This then gives rise to the question, what measurement does Abu Taymiyyah Jeylani use in what is now clearly a highly-exaggerated and erroneous, mis-placed praise? You’d have to ask him. In any case, The Salafi Dawah today, is in no need of flattery, falsely-adorned speech, or in more common words “sucking up”. But what is required, in the words of Imam Albani and Imam Muqbil, is Tasfiyyah and Tamayuz, Purification and Distinction from Innovations and its people. And before that, Honesty, Sincerity and Truthfulness. I ask Allah to rectify all those mentioned above. Walhamdulilahi Rabil ‘aalamiin Written 15/01/2017
