A Response to Tahir Wyatt, Muhammad Akhtar Chaudhury, Nadir Ahmad And Unveiling the Realities Behind the Madeenah.Com / FatwaOnline Operation

Excerpt:

"A number of articles appeared recently and were distributed through the website Madeenah.Com, and the Fatwa-Online mailing list. Tahir Wyatt, Muhammad Akhtar Chaudhury and Nadir Ahmad are the writers of the article. The general theme of these articles is the claim that the various statements published on Madeenah.Com in criticism of Salafi Publications are from the intent and  angle of refuting the opposer (ar-radd alaa al-mukhaalif) and are not to be considered "attacking the Salafis." To an onlooker who does not know what has been happening behind the scenes, this appears to be believable until you step back slightly, understand the wider picture, look at the history of these people as it relates to "ar-radd alal-mukhaalif", and a look at the chronological order of events (as it relates to their activities), which is what these articles will shed light on inshaa'Allaah. Once, we have done this, inshaa'Allaah, the sincere person will come to realize that far from being the self-claimed rectifiers, these individuals have turned out to be mischief makers, as already pointed out by the likes of Shaykh Ubayd, Shaikh Muhammad bin Haadee (who called some of them "liars, transgressors"), Shaykh Ahmad as-Subay'ee, Shaykh Muhammad al-Anjaree and a number of other Mashaayikh. Indeed, it puzzles a person to think why these three individuals have started writing these recent articles when their reality has already been made clear by some of the very Shaykhs they were initially trying to use as part of their agenda."

Excerpt:

"On Monday 29th October 2007, Madeenah.Com published an article containing an answer by Shaykh Waseeullaah  to a question posed about our brother Abu Khadeejah / Salafi Publications in which the Shaykh carried a slander against Abu Khadeejah that was narrated to him by those who were surrounding him during his visit to the UK in that month. Muhammad Akhtar Chaudhury sent out this article to many thousands of people via his fatwa-online mailing list. Short of two weeks later, Shaykh Ahmad al-Subayee of Kuwait wrote a three page letter addressed to these individuals... "

We thank our brother Anwar Wright and Sunnah Publishing for the above article and their support and defence of the manhaj of the contemporary Salafi Scholars, jazaahumullaahu khayran. One thing that must be highlighted and which is from the great benefits contained in the article is the following statement of Shaykh Muhammad bin Haadee (hafidhahullaah):
quote:
So these people sell their hereafter for their present, so the affair of sincerity dear brothers is something great. And sincerity (ikhlaas) is that a person does not intend by his actions except the face of Allah the Mighty and Majestic, and the Hereafter. So he walks straight upon the truth and upon guidance and he does not let anything turn him away from it. This is the true thabaat (being firm upon the truth)...

Although many of the people who cause corruption today, the majority of them are hidden, even if they ascribe to the Sunnah, they are criticized, even if they ascribe to the Sunnah. Rather we do not see them speaking harshly except against Ahl as-Sunnah, and on the opposite, they make excuses for the people of desires and they defend them and they justify their falsehood! Sometimes they even say that they [the people of falsehood] are Salafis and other times they say: "We can not take them out of Salafiyyah" and the likes of these statements.

So they open their chest to the likes of these individuals, however the Salafis are not safe from their tongues. So these individuals, their danger is greater upon the Salafis than the people of desires and innovation so be warned from them O my sons and brothers. Be warned from them at all costs! So if you see those from whom the likes of this statement comes and he does not open his chest to the people of the sunnah and does not make excuses for them however opens his chest for those who are criticized, and seeks to makes excuses for them then he by Allah is a liar!!! Even if his status and rank reaches the reigns of the heavens!
The point made by Shaykh Muhammad (that which has been bolded above) is the very thing that has been repeatedly pointed out by "the Salafis" in the West when they repeatedly saw from certain people this very behaviour Shaykh Muhammad has pointed out, that we find individuals who will show the sternest, harshest of behavior towards their Salafi brothers, by openly refuting them, and demanding that ties be severed with them whilst at the same time promoting and defending open callers to misguidance - showing them the "Rifq" (leniency and gentleness) that Ahlus-Sunnah, the Salafiyyoon are deserving of!  

We also stated in one of the footnotes to Part 1 above (download here) the following:
quote:
Regarding this term, "the Salafis", despite all of the propaganda by Madeenah.Com, "the Salafis"  walhamdulillaah are not a handful of people in one city in the West, rather "the Salafis" are a very large number of people who are united upon a single way, who honour and respect the Salafi manhaj, and who are behind the Scholars who uphold that manhaj - in particular those Scholars who are at the forefront of clarifying the methodologies of the Salaf as a result of which we have a da'wah that is upon clarity, whose adherents love each other for the sake of Allaah, and amongst whom there is mutual love and cooperation and they are found walhamdulillaah in all corners of the globe.

Unfortunately, this type of clarity is not to the liking of Tahir Wyatt, Muhammad Akhtar Chaudhary and their likes, who quite often display greater closeness towards the callers to misguidance and their followers than those who (even if they may have shortcomings, as no one is free of them) are upon the Salafi manhaj, loving it, venerating it, calling to it, defending it and honouring it and its Scholars. This is the legacy of al-Ma'ribee no doubt.

For this reason, when you see that Shaykh Muhammad bin Haadee, after the period in which these individuals were playing their games, he said what he said in commendation of Salafi Publications, then this really grieved Tahir Wyatt, Muhammad Akhtar Chaudhury and Nadir Ahmad, and out of hypocrisy in action, we see them today continuing to treat Salafi Publications as those who must be warned against at every expense and continuing to play games and using deception in order to confuse people in the West who do not really know the full details of what has been transpiring behind the scenes over the years.
It looks like these "Madeenah Students" (yet again) fail to grasp and understand the usool of the Salafi manhaj and start criticising "the Salafis" because they have been pointing out and warning against a type of deviation which is the very type of deviation that the Scholars themselves have pointed out and warned against and which is the very deviation whose characteristics these "students" are displaying fairly openly in the West but showing a different face to the Scholars in their midst in Madeenah!

Make no mistake, O reader, their "enmity" towards Salafi Publications and other brothers in the various parts of the West (Europe, UK and the US) is solely on the basis that they dislike the clarity which is being disseminated. It is NOT due to any deviations we have in the usool or the 'aqeedah - rather it is due to the fact that they are upon a particular orientation that accommodates the people of misguidance, shows lenience and support to them and allows for the infiltration of the political methodologies of the hizbiyyeen into the Salafi ranks.

Excerpt:

"...This now brings us to our "Madeenah students" whom we listed at the end of Part 1 in this series  and in particular the claim of Tahir Wyatt, Muhammad Akhtar Chaudhury and Nadir Ahmad that they are simply lifting the banner of "refuting the  opposer." We shall see in pictures of what type of da'wah, and loyalty and allegiance these people show towards those whom the Scholars declared innovators, deviants, hizbees and declared to be very harmful to the Salafi da'wah, all with evidences that cannot be denied or explained away.  We will present to you each exhibit on its own, and each exhibit will be released as individual instalments of Part 3, alongside brief comments and explanations as to the significance of the action of the party concerned."

Excerpt:

"...In 2007, Masjid al-Ghurabaa (followers of al-Ma'ribee, al-Maghraawee, al-Halabi in Luton)  organized a conference (between 24th and 27th August) in which this oppressive and unjust Takfiri, Muhammad al-Maghraawee was a speaker (alongside Musa Nasr, Faisal Jaasim of Ihyaa al-Turaath al-Islaamee, Khalid al-Anbaree).   Also invited and in attendance  was Shaykh Waseeullaah Abbaas. One would have expected that Madeenah.Com / Fatwaonline - being there in Madeenah with Scholars (such as Shaykh Muhammad bin Haadee, Shaykh Ubayd al-Jaabiree and access to Shaykh Rabee' via phone) whose word is depended upon in matters like these - would have made recourse to these Scholars for guidance and advice "for the greater benefit of the da'wah". Muhammad Akhtar Chaudhury promoted this event to his fatwa-online list of around 8,000 members..."

A Word About Tahir Wyatt's Translation of an Article Deceptively Titled, "Monopolizing Salafiyyah"



Truly, all praise is due to Allaah. May His peace and blessing be upon the last Messenger Muhammad, his Family and his Companions. As for what follows.

It seems, wallaahul musta'aan (and Allaah is the One from whom aid is sought), once more, history has repeated itself. In February of 2007CE, Madeenah(dot)com, or more specifically Aboo 'Abdur-Razzaaq Taahir Wyatt, from the members and contributors to Madeenah(dot)com,  published the translations of some of our noble and beloved Scholars regarding the  tremendously important subject matter of participating in democratic elections. The questions that led to these fataawaa were indeed general and broad. They did not mention the specific conditions of any one community, or the intricacies that should undoubtedly be included in an affair that can so easily be misunderstood by the masses. Coincidentally, the publication of these verdicts were surprisingly close to the timing of Taahir Wyatt's attempt at entering some of the masaajid into the affairs of American democracy and assisting the former administration of Germantown Masjid in drawing close to the local politicians of the city; and if Allaah wills, we will address this issue in detail in the coming articles.

It would seem, that Taahir Wyatt is inclined to present vague and incomprehensive fataawaa at times that suit him and his agenda. Yet once again, at a time when his companion, Abu Zubayr Shadeed Muhammad has been refuted by the likes of al-'Allaamah Rabee' Ibn Haadee al-Madkhalee, al-'Allaamah 'Ubayd Ibn 'Abdullaah al-Jaabiree, al-'Allaamah Muhammad Ibn Haadee al-Madkhalee and Shaykh Falaah Ibn Ismaa'eel, and this speech has been spread by the hands of our brothers all over the west, has Taahir Wyatt deemed it suitable to publish a translation of a fatwaa by al-'Allaamah Saalih Ibn Fawzaan al-Fawzaan titled by Taahir,[1] "Monopolizing Salafiyyah." As for what exactly is the intention of Taahir Wyatt, then that is between him and Allaah, but from what is apparent is that it is uncomfortably close to Shadeed Muhammad being labeled as "misguided,  misguiding others" by Shaykh 'Ubayd al-Jaabiree and Shaykh Rabee's statement that Shadeed's sayings "are nothing but the wide, expansive methodology of Abul-Hasan al-Ma`ribee."

As for the speech of our father, Shaykh Saalih al-Fawzaan, may Allaah preserve him,  then it is clear, and we also understand it in context with the abundance of other fataawaa from the Shaykh, some of which have been translated here to provide our brothers and sisters with a more comprehensive understanding of this affair.

Abu Hafsah Kashiff Khan


The Response of Shaykh Saalih al-Fawzaan to al-'Areefee's Article, "The Description Salafee, Tableeghee and Ikhwaanee is not from Islaam"

His eminence, Dr. Saalih bin Fawzaan al-Fawzaan (hafidhahullaah), member of the Committee of Major Scholars has criticized what has been printed in the newspaper 'Ukaadh from the caller to Allaah, Shaykh Muhammad al-'Areefee. The criticism of Dr. Saalih al-Fawzaan was concerning the first installment of the series that was titled, "The Description Salafee, Tableeghee and Ikhwaanee is not from Islaam."

Said ash-Shaykh Saalih al-Fawzaan, "So indeed, I read in the newspaper 'Ukaadh published on Sunday 28/4/1426H (corresponding to June 5, 2005CE), issue (no. 14162), an evil title for a gathering that took place with some noble Scholars, and this was the text of it "The Description Salafee, Tableeghee, and Ikhwaanee is not from Islaam," and I was amazed at how the author of this title included as-Salafiyyah as being not from Islaam, and the meaning of it (i.e. Salafiyyah) is following the methodology of the Righteous Predecessors from the Companions, and their students, and the honourable generations. And Allaah the Most High says,

 At-Tawbah ( 9):100
æóÇáÓøóÇÈöÞõæäó ÇáÃóæøóáõæäó ãöäó ÇáúãõåóÇÌöÑöíäó æóÇáÃóäÕóÇÑö æóÇáøóÐöíäó ÇÊøóÈóÚõæåõã ÈöÅöÍúÓóÇäò ÑøóÖöíó Çááøåõ Úóäúåõãú æóÑóÖõæÇú Úóäúåõ æóÃóÚóÏøó áóåõãú ÌóäøóÇÊò ÊóÌúÑöí ÊóÍúÊóåóÇ ÇáÃóäúåóÇÑõ ÎóÇáöÏöíäó ÝöíåóÇ ÃóÈóÏðÇ Ðóáößó ÇáúÝóæúÒõ ÇáúÚóÙöíãõ

And the first to embrace Islâm of the Muhâjirûn (those who migrated from Makkah to Al-Madinah) and the Ansâr (the citizens of Al-Madinah who helped and gave aid to the Muhâjirûn) and also those who followed them exactly (in Faith). Allâh is well-pleased with them as they are well-pleased with Him. He has prepared for them Gardens under which rivers flow (Paradise), to dwell therein forever. That is the supreme success.



And Allaah the Most High says regarding the Companions,

 Al-Anfal ( 8):72
Åöäøó ÇáøóÐöíäó ÂãóäõæÇú æóåóÇÌóÑõæÇú æóÌóÇåóÏõæÇú ÈöÃóãúæóÇáöåöãú æóÃóäÝõÓöåöãú Ýöí ÓóÈöíáö Çááøåö æóÇáøóÐöíäó ÂæóæÇú æøóäóÕóÑõæÇú ÃõæúáóÜÆößó ÈóÚúÖõåõãú ÃóæúáöíóÇÁ ÈóÚúÖò æóÇáøóÐöíäó ÂãóäõæÇú æóáóãú íõåóÇÌöÑõæÇú ãóÇ áóßõã ãøöä æóáÇóíóÊöåöã ãøöä ÔóíúÁò ÍóÊøóì íõåóÇÌöÑõæÇú æóÅöäö ÇÓúÊóäÕóÑõæßõãú Ýöí ÇáÏøöíäö ÝóÚóáóíúßõãõ ÇáäøóÕúÑõ ÅöáÇøó Úóáóì Þóæúãò Èóíúäóßõãú æóÈóíúäóåõã ãøöíËóÇÞñ æóÇááøåõ ÈöãóÇ ÊóÚúãóáõæäó ÈóÕöíÑñ

Verily, those who believed, and emigrated and strove hard and fought with their property and their lives in the Cause of Allâh as well as those who gave (them) asylum and help, - these are (all) allies to one another. And as to those who believed but did not emigrate (to you O Muhammad (sallallaahu alayhi wasallam)), you owe no duty of protection to them until they emigrate, but if they seek your help in religion, it is your duty to help them except against a people with whom you have a treaty of mutual alliance, and Allâh is the All-Seer of what you do.



Until He says,

 Al-Anfal ( 8):75
æóÇáøóÐöíäó ÂãóäõæÇú ãöä ÈóÚúÏõ æóåóÇÌóÑõæÇú æóÌóÇåóÏõæÇú ãóÚóßõãú ÝóÃõæúáóÜÆößó ãöäßõãú æóÃõæúáõæÇú ÇáÃóÑúÍóÇãö ÈóÚúÖõåõãú Ãóæúáóì ÈöÈóÚúÖò Ýöí ßöÊóÇÈö Çááøåö Åöäøó Çááøåó Èößõáøö ÔóíúÁò Úóáöíãñ

And those who believed afterwards, and emigrated and strove hard along with you, (in the Cause of Allâh) they are of you. But kindred by blood are nearer to one another regarding inheritance in the decree ordained by Allâh. Verily, Allâh is the All-Knower of everything.



And He the Most High says in Sooratul-Hashr,

  Al-Hashr ( 59):8-9
áöáúÝõÞóÑóÇÁ ÇáúãõåóÇÌöÑöíäó ÇáøóÐöíäó ÃõÎúÑöÌõæÇ ãöä ÏöíÇÑöåöãú æóÃóãúæóÇáöåöãú íóÈúÊóÛõæäó ÝóÖúáðÇ ãøöäó Çááøóåö æóÑöÖúæóÇäðÇ æóíóäÕõÑõæäó Çááøóåó æóÑóÓõæáóåõ ÃõæúáóÆößó åõãõ ÇáÕøóÇÏöÞõæäó  ¤  æóÇáøóÐöíäó ÊóÈóæøóÄõæÇ ÇáÏøóÇÑó æóÇáúÅöíãóÇäó ãöä ÞóÈúáöåöãú íõÍöÈøõæäó ãóäú åóÇÌóÑó Åöáóíúåöãú æóáóÇ íóÌöÏõæäó Ýöí ÕõÏõæÑöåöãú ÍóÇÌóÉð ãøöãøóÇ ÃõæÊõæÇ æóíõÄúËöÑõæäó Úóáóì ÃóäÝõÓöåöãú æóáóæú ßóÇäó Èöåöãú ÎóÕóÇÕóÉñ æóãóä íõæÞó ÔõÍøó äóÝúÓöåö ÝóÃõæúáóÆößó åõãõ ÇáúãõÝúáöÍõæäó  ¤ 

(And there is also a share in this booty) for the poor emigrants, who were expelled from their homes and their property, seeking Bounties from Allâh and to please Him. And helping Allâh (i.e. helping His religion) and His Messenger (Muhammad (sallallaahu alayhi wasallam)). Such are indeed the truthful (to what they say);- And those who, before them, had homes (in Al-Madinah) and had adopted the Faith, love those who emigrate to them, and have no jealousy in their breasts for that which they have been given (from the booty of Banî An-Nadîr), and give them (emigrants) preference over themselves, even though they were in need of that. And whosoever is saved from his own covetousness, such are they who will be the successful.



Until He says,

 Al-Hashr ( 59):10
æóÇáøóÐöíäó ÌóÇÄõæÇ ãöä ÈóÚúÏöåöãú íóÞõæáõæäó ÑóÈøóäóÇ ÇÛúÝöÑú áóäóÇ æóáöÅöÎúæóÇäöäóÇ ÇáøóÐöíäó ÓóÈóÞõæäóÇ ÈöÇáúÅöíãóÇäö æóáóÇ ÊóÌúÚóáú Ýöí ÞõáõæÈöäóÇ ÛöáøðÇ áøöáøóÐöíäó ÂãóäõæÇ ÑóÈøóäóÇ Åöäøóßó ÑóÄõæÝñ ÑøóÍöíãñ

And those who came after them say: "Our Lord! Forgive us and our brethren who have preceded us in Faith, and put not in our hearts any hatred against those who have believed. Our Lord! You are indeed full of kindness, Most Merciful.



And the Prophet (sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) said, "Indeed, this Ummah will divide into seventy three sects, each of them in the Fire save one." They said, "And who is that (saved one)?" He said, "Those upon what I am upon today and my Companions."[2]

And he (sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) said, "Mandatory upon you is my Sunnah and the Sunnah of my Rightly Guided Caliphs."[3]

Therefore, Salafiyyah is that true methodology that is obligatory for us to follow, and we should abandon what opposes it from different methodologies and its adherents. They (as-Salafiyyeen) are the Saved Sect. They are Ahlus-Sunnah wal-Jamaa'ah and the Victorious Group until the last day. May Allaah make us from them.


Shaykh Saalih al-Fawzaan on Clarifying the
Danger of Hizbiyyah to the Youth and Common Folk


His eminence, Shaykh Saalih al-Fawzaan, was also asked, "Is it permissible for the people of knowledge to clarify to the youth and common folk the danger of hizbiyyah (bigoted partisanship) and schisms?"

He answered, "Yes, it is obligatory to clarify the danger of partisanship and the danger of dividing and separating so the people can be upon clarity, because nowadays the common folk are deceived by some of the sects, thinking that they are upon the truth.  So it is a must to clarify to the students of knowledge and the laymen the dangers of the groups and parties, because if they (the people of knowledge) remain silent, the common people will say, 'the Scholars knew about these things and said nothing,' and therefore they would be misguided.  So it is a must to make clarification when the likes of these matters occur. And the danger facing the common folk is greater than the danger facing the student of knowledge, because if the Scholars remain silent, the layperson will believe that this thing is correct and from the truth."[4]


Shaykh Saalih al-Fawzaan on the "Jamaa'aat"


He was also asked, "What is your opinion concerning the jamaa'aat as a general ruling?"

He answered, "Everyone who opposes the jamaa'ah of Ahlus-Sunnah, then he is astray.  There is no jamaa'ah according to us, except one: it is Ahlus-Sunnah wal-Jamaa'ah.[5] Whatever opposes this Jamaa'ah, then it is in opposition to the manhaj of the Messenger (sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam).  We also say, everyone that opposes Ahlus-Sunnah wal-Jamaa'ah, then he is from the people of desires.  And elements of opposition vary in ruling of them being misguided or outside of Islaam with relation to how large, small, far or near they are from the truth."[6]


"Don't Refute the People of Falsehood"
is the Call to Separation and Division


He was also asked, "Many people say that those who refute the people of innovation are the cause of separation."

Shaykh al-Fawzan answered, "Yes, separation between the truth and the falsehood; this is correct. We make a distinction between truth and the falsehood and (also between) the people of truth and the people of falsehood. We are going to refute (the people of falsehood), and the Scholars refuted (the people of falsehood). This is not for the purpose of causing division; this is to gather the people upon the truth, because with people remaining upon misguidance and upon the speech of falsehood, then this causes division between the Muslims. As for clarifying the truth for the people, so they can gather upon it, then this is the da'wah towards unity, not the da'wah towards separation. The da'wah towards separation is when it is said, 'The people of falsehood are not to be refuted.' This is the da'wah to division if they only gave thought."[7]


More on the "Jamaa'aat"


[Q]: We hear about what are called Islaamic Jamaa'aat in this age in the various parts of the world.  So what is the basis of this term?  Is it permissible to go along with then and assist them if they do not have an innovation?

[A]: The Messenger (sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) informed and explained to how we must interact.  He did not leave anything that brings his Ummah closer to Allaah, except that he explained it to them.  And he (sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) leave anything that takes his Ummah farther away from Allaah, except that he clarified to them, and from that is this issue.  The Prophet (sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) said, "So whosoever from amongst you lives long, then he shall see much differing."  However, what is the treatment for these new occurrences?  He (sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) continued, "So hold firmly to my Sunnah and the Sunnah of the Rightly-Guided Caliphs after me.  Hold onto it with your molar teeth, and beware of newly invented affairs.  Indeed, every newly invented affair is an innovation and every innovation is in the Fire."[8] So who from amongst these jamaa'aat[9] is upon the guidance of the Messenger (sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) and the Companions, especially upon the guidance of the of the Rightly-Guided Caliphs and the virtuous generations?  So which jamaa'ah is upon this manhaj (methodology) so that we may be with this jamaa'ah, ascribe ourselves to it and work with it?

So whatever opposes that guidance of the Messenger (sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam), then we must avoid it, even if it is called an 'Islaamic Jamaa'ah.'  A term is not defined by names, it is defined by its realities.  The names could be magnificent, but the thing itself could be futile, not consisting of anything, or being false.  The Messenger of Allaah (sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) said, "The Jews split up into seventy one sects, and the Christians split up into seventy two sects.  And my Ummah shall split up into seventy three sects, all of them being in the Fire except one."  We said, 'Which one is that, O Messenger of Allaah?'  He said, "The one that follows what I am upon and my Companions."[10]

The path is clear, we must join the jamaa'ah which possesses this sign; whoever is upon the likes of what the Messenger (sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) and his Companions were upon.  So they are the true Islaamic Jamaa'ah.  As for whoever opposes this manhaj (methodology), and traverses upon another manhaj, then he is not from us and we are not from him.  We do not attach ourselves to him, nor can he attach himself to us; and that is not to be called a jamaa'ah.  It is only to be called a sect from the astray sects, because the Jamaa'ah cannot be anything except the truth.  So it is that which the people have united upon.  As for the falsehood, then it divides and it does not unite.  Allaah the Exalted said,

 Al-Baqarah ( 2):137
ÝóÅöäú ÂãóäõæÇú ÈöãöËúáö ãóÇ ÂãóäÊõã Èöåö ÝóÞóÏö ÇåúÊóÏóæÇú æøóÅöä ÊóæóáøóæúÇú ÝóÅöäøóãóÇ åõãú Ýöí ÔöÞóÇÞò ÝóÓóíóßúÝöíßóåõãõ Çááøåõ æóåõæó ÇáÓøóãöíÚõ ÇáúÚóáöíãõ

So if they believe in the like of that which you believe, then they are rightly guided, but if they turn away, then they are only in opposition. So Allâh will suffice you against them. And He is the All-Hearer, the All-Knower.

COMMENTS:

As the audience can surely decipher, these fataawaa are readily available, not only in Arabic but also in the English language. Not only do they explain the reality of Salafiyyah, but also who are the Salafees, the characteristics of the opposition, and the mannerisms utilized whilst dealing with them. Is it that Taahir Wyatt and Madeenah(dot)com do not know where to find these fataawaa, or do they simply choose to publish what will suit there personal ambitions of labeling the Salafees in the west as extreme and excessive. Surely these fataawaa are just as readily available as those that they choose to promote.

Endnotes:
[1]: This brings to mind the question of where the translator, Taahir Wyatt, came up with title for this translation. For indeed we have seen some of the sites of hizbiyyah, most specifically those affiliated with Abul-Hasan al-Ma`ribee titling the verdict as تضييق السلفية (Restricting Salafiyyah). While Taahir's title carries the same meaning  احتكار السلفية (Monopolizing Salafiyyah). At the same time, if the reader looks at the very same fatwaa on the Shaykh al-Fawzaan's website - or other Salafee websites, you will not find such a title, rather, on the Shaykh's page  you will find it in the section فرقة السلفية (Sect of Salafiyyah) without any title whatsoever. So if the Shaykh himself did not title it in this way, and we cannot find it titled in this way on the other Salafee websites, then this leads to either one of two possibilities: [1]: Taahir took the likes of this titling from a hizbee website or [2]: He subconsciously came up with a title very similar to that the followers of al-Ma`ribee, and the sweetest of the two is bitter.  Additionally, Taahir's title was read to some of the Scholars who were surprised at his choice of wording.
[2]: Saheeh: Related by at-Tirmidhee (no. 2641), al-Haakim (1/129) and Ibn Maajah (no. 3992).  It was authenticated by al-Albaanee in Silsilatus-Saheehah (1/358).
[3]: Saheeh: Related by Aboo Daawood (no. 4607), at-Tirmidhee (no. 2676) and Ibn Maajah (no. 34).  It was authenticated by al-Albaanee in al-Irwaa`ul-Ghaleel (no. 2455).
[4]: Refer to Dhaahirut-Tabdeeý (p. 50) of Saalih al-Fawzaan.
[5]: Jamaal Ibn Fuhrayhaan al-Haarithee adds, "So they are the Taa`ifatul-Mansoorah (the Victorious Group), the Firqatun-Naajiyah (Saved-Sect), Ahlul-Hadeeth, Ahlul-'Ilm (people of knowledge).  From them, upon the likes of their way, are the Four Imaams for whom Imaamate has been testified to, and others who were in their generation.  Then there are those who followed them traversing their methodology, even if he came long after their era.  As for referring to these sects that oppose the one Jamaa'ah of the Muslims as jamaa'aat, then that is not correct as I have mentioned previously.  Rather, it is to be said about them: sects (firaq) and parties (ahzaab)."
[6]: Refer to al-Ajwibatul-Mufeedah (p. 10) of Saalih al-Fawzaan, with the annotations of Jamaal al-Haarithee.
[7]: Taken from the recorded lessons of Shaykh Saalih al-Fawzaan in explanation of Sharhus-Sunnah of Imaam al-Barbahaaree (d.329H).
[8]: Saheeh: Related by Aboo Daawood (no. 4607), at-Tirmidhee (no. 2676), Ibn Maajah (no. 34).  It was authenticated by al-Albaanee in Irwaa`ul-Ghaleel (no. 2400).
[9]: Jamaal Ibn Furayhaan al-Haarithee comments, "It is better to label very group that opposes the Book and the Sunnah upon the methodology of the Salafus-Saalih as sects.  This is the Sharee'ah term for them, as the Messenger of Allaah (sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) labeled them in the following hadeeth of sects.  As for the jamaa'aat, then there are none, except the Jamaa'ah of the Muslims, as is pointed out in the hadeeth of sects, and Allaah knows best."
[10]: Saheeh: Related by at-Tirmidhee (no. 2641), al-Haakim (1/129) and Ibn Maajah (no. 3992).  It was authenticated by al-Albaanee in Silsilatus-Saheehah (1/358).
[11]: Refer to al-Ajwibatul-Mufeedah (p. 11) of Saalih al-Fawzaan, with the annotations of Jamaal al-Haarithee.

A Response to Tahir Wyatt, Muhammad Akhtar Chaudhury, Nadir Ahmad And Unveiling the Realities Behind the Madeenah.Com / FatwaOnline Operation


Alhamdulillaah was-Salaatu was-Salaamu alaa Rasoolillaah, wa ba'ad:

>> Download Part 3.2 Here <<

Excerpt:

"...It has become clear that they have been showing two-faces all along. One face to the Scholars in Madeenah, and another face to those in the West. The face they show to the West is itself split into two faces. One towards those whom they are happy to cooperate with from the Hizbiyyeen, and another to Salafis. Imagine, Shaykh Muhammad bin Haadee or Shaykh Ubayd or Shaykh Abdullah al-Bukhaaree knowing that these Madeenah graduates are sitting with Suhayb Hasan and the likes of Abu Usamah ath-Thahabi, making ta'aawun in da'wah, and accommodating these people in this manner and happy to see their own names associated with these people of desires. ..."

2008: Murtaza Khan + Muawiyah Tucker
2009: Murtaza Khan + Anwar al-Awlaki


"Pictures Speak Louder Than Words"




This event was organised by "Al-Wasatiyyah Foundation" at The Brady Arts and Community Centre in London, Saturday 11th & Sunday 12th April 2009.

Alhamdulillaah was-Salaatu was-Salaamu alaa Rasoolillaah, wa ba'ad:

Murtaza Khan is a clear outright misguided caller known to the Salafis for years. His close companionship and alliances with the takfeeris has not gone undetected - yet Madeenah.com see it correct to cooperate and share platforms with him*, whilst at the very same time compiling and publicizing baseless refutations against Salafi Publications.

Al-Awlaki is a well-known takfeeri Khaariji caller, who has been refuted for his deviations and innovations.

* See Part 3.2 above for Muawiyah Tucker's cooperation with the likes of Murtaza Khan and other political harakiyyeen.

2007: Fatwa-online (Madeenah.com) send out Download Link to a Lecture of the Liar and Misguided Caller Abdullaah as-Sabt

"Pictures Speak Louder Than Words"




Over a decade after the Scholars such as the Imaam of Yemen Muqbil bin Haadee (rahimahullaah) had refuted this kadhdhaab, caller to misguidance, and a head of the hizbi Jam'iyyah Ihyaa Turaath al-Islaami, madeenah.com (Abu Abdullah Muhammad Akhtar) send out an email to over 8,000 to download his lecture.

Recently Shaikh Muhammad bin Haadee (hafidhahullaah) refuted him and exposed him once again due to his lies against the Allaamah Rabee' bin Haadee al-Madkhalee (hafidhahullaah). See below for the comments of Shaikh Muhammad bin Haadee on [url=http://salafitalk.net/st/viewmessages.cfm?Forum=6&Topic=10170]Abdullaah as-Sabt[/url].

All this in their desire to legitimize the Manhaj of "Call to Islam Luton" who are followers and supporters of al-Maghraawi, al-Ma'rabi, and Al-Halabi, amongst others.

So where is the "radd 'alal-Mukhaalif" (Refuting the Opposer)? Or is that only reserved for Salafi Publications whilst the true people of misguidance are promoted and defended?
