Assalamu alaykum ikhwaan,
I know of some brothers who sell the tapes of Muhhamad al-Jibaly, Abu Usamah adh-Dhahabi and Usamah al-Qoosee, may Allah straighten their affairs. Ameen.
I want to advice them and tell them to discontinue selling the tapes of the aforementioned individuals, until they clarify themselves. How would you advice me to approach them? (the brothers who are selling the tapes). And could you also please name the Ulama who gave the Jarh on these individuals, so that I may convey it to these brothers.
Barrak allahu feekum
Wassalam

As-Salaam Alaikum Salafi.
Here's a dhaleel from www.assalafi.com -
How to Deal with Tapes and Books of Deviants
Translated by Abu Sumayyah Aqeel Walker
Question: What is the truthful statement concerning reading the books of the innovators and listening to their tapes?
Answer: It is not permissible to read the books of the innovators or listen to their tapes, except for whoever wants to refute them and explain their deviance.
In reference to the person who is just beginning (in studying), and the student of knowledge, and the common person, or the person who only reads for the sake of seeing what's there, and not for the sake of refutation and explaining the situation of these (deviant books), then for this person it is not permissible for him to read these books. This is because they might have an effect on his heart1 and cause confusion for him, and thus he will be affected by their evil. Therefore, it is not permissible to read the books of the people of misguidance, except for the people who are specialists from the people of knowledge, in order to refute these books and warn against them.
___________________________________
1 Footnote by Shaikh Jamaal Al-Haarithee: Indeed the narrations from the Salaf regarding warning against the people of desires and innovations are too numerous to deny (Mutawaatir). So here are some of these narrations which we present to you, O my brother who is seeking the truth:
Abu Qulaabah said, "Do not sit with them - the people of innovations - and do not mix with them, for verily I do not feel safe from them immersing you all in their misguidance, or they will confuse you concerning much of what you know." (Al-Laalikaa'ee, 1/134, and the book Al-Bida' wan-Nahy 'anhaa, pg. 55, and the book Al-I'tisaam by Ash-Shaatibee, 1/172.)
Ibraaheem An-Nakha'ee said, "Do not sit with the people of innovations and do not speak to them, for verily I fear that your hearts will turn apostate." (Al-Bida' wan-Nahy 'anhaa, pg. 56, and Al-I'tisaam, 1/172.)
Abu Qulaabah said, "O Ayyub - As-Sakhtiyaanee - do not allow the people of desires any of your listening (i.e. don't listen to them at all)." (Al-Laalikaa'ee, 1/134.)
And Al-Fudhayl bin 'Iyyaadh said, "If you see an innovator on the road, then take another road." (Al-Ibaanah, 2/475.)
And Abu Zar'ah was asked about Al-Haarith bin Asad Al-Muhaasibee and his books, so he said to the questioner, "Beware of these books. These are books of innovations and deviances. You must stick to the old way (i.e. the way of the Salaf)." It was also said to him, "In these books is a good lesson." So he replied, "Whoever does not have a good lesson in the Book of Allaah, then there is no good lesson for him in these books." Then he said, "How quick the people rush to the innovations." (At-Tahtheeb, 2/117, and Taareekh Baghdad, 8/215.)
Al-Imaam Ahmad said a harsh statement regarding Al-Muhaasibee when he was asked about him, and from that which he said to the questioner was, "Do not be deceived by the hanging of his head (i.e. in piety), for verily he is an evil man... don't speak to him and there should be no respecting him... and we do not turn a blind eye to him." (See the narration in its entirety in Haashiyah, no. 49, pg. 30.)
So this is the Manhaj (methodology) of the Salaf in dealing with the people of innovations, and their (the Salaf's) position in regards to their books and listening to their speech, so measure this in comparison to their tapes (i.e. listening to them).
O how serious this is. Will our youth comprehend this Manhaj (methodology), and avoid the tapes and books of the people of innovations and desires in this time of ours?

Assala mu alaykum,
Jazzak allahu khair for relaying the information.
The Fatwa you have brought forward, from Shaikh Salih al-Fawzan, seems (from my OWN limited understanding), to warn from reading the books of the INNOVATORS. But the individuals I mentioned , in my question, have not had 'tabdee' made on them by any Shuyookh. So perhaps this fatwa doesn't apply to them? Allahu a'lam. Please correct me if I am wrong!
Barrak allahu feek

Walaykum Salaam,
On www.assalafi.com there is also a fatwa about the people that sell the books of the innovators. I briefed over the post I pasted and thought it would be of help. Breeze over assalafi.com for that specific fatwa bro.

Assalam mu alaykum,
Jazzak allahu khairan ya Abaa Jamal, that link will prove useful insha allah!
Ya akh Faruq could you tell me where exactly I could find that Fatwa on the wesite. I went there and briefly checked the website but couldn't find it. Is it in Manhaj section, Innovations etc?
Wassalam

Walaykum Salaam,
Sorry for the extremely late reply. Wa'Allah I cannot find it exactly either. I did see it though. Email the good salafi admin'ers at www.troid.org. Insha-Allah they can post the link for you or email it to you.
