I have warned against 'Abdul-Mun'im.  And I advise his organization, if they are truthful in their claim to Salafiyyah, to take a position against him, the Salafee position based upon guidance, the position that one takes for Allaah's Sake, not fearing the blame of the blamers. As there is no lip service in Salafiyyah, nor is there mutual flattery, nor are we to get behind people blindly. And the meaning of (someone being a) Salafee is: (a) To hold fast to the Book of Allaah and the Sunnah of His Messenger, sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam; (b) To take the utmost caution against things that contradict the Book of Allaah, the Sunnah of the Messenger, and what the righteous Salaf were upon; (c) To not obey anyone in an affair of disobedience to Allaah; (d) To not submit to any person of falsehood or desires; (e) To not show allegiance except for the sake of Allaah; (f) And to not show enmity except for the sake of Allaah, the Mighty and Majestic. The firmest of the handholds of Islaam, or Eemaan, is one's loving for the sake of Allaah and hating for the sake of Allaah. [1] So when 'Abdul-Mun'im aligns himself with the people of desires and the people of tribulations and turmoil, those who plot against the people of the Sunnah and the scholars of Ahlus-Sunnah, and defend the people of innovation, inventing false principles in order to wage war against the people of the Sunnah and the principles of Ahlus-Sunnah, is someone who has allegiance to these kinds of people upon any kind of Salafiyyah?! I seek Allaah's Refuge from that. This 'Abdul-Mun'im is mutahazzib for the misguided Abul-Hasan, the one who wages war against the people of the Sunnah, the one has launched an attack the likes of which we never seen before, with corrupt principles, lies, fabrications, and calumnies, the likes of which the people of the Sunnah have never encountered from any of the people of desires and misguidance before. Al-Ikhwaan Al-Muslimoon, Jamaa'ah At-Tableegh, and the groups and parties of Qutbees have not done anything like what Abul-Hasan has done in his war against the people of the Sunnah.  How can 'Abdul-Mun'im have allegiance to this warrior against Ahlus-Sunnah and stand up for him, one who causes chaos and seeks to dominate them?! How can he stand up for him if he has any respect for Salafiyyah or any respect for its people?! This is something well known from Abul-Hasan's tapes and books - there is not a single person who advises him or criticizes his falsehood except that he attacks him and incites the people against him, seeking revenge, like a ferocious lion.  All this, while verily he is like an ostrich in the faces of the people of innovation, with his head in the ground, but a lion against us. "A lion against us, but in the battles, an ostrich." So this 'Abdul-Mun'im, what is it that has fastened him to Abul-Hasan?!  What is it that has fastened him to this man? As for his principles, then the scholars have testified to the falsehood of them. And don't be deceived by 'Abdul-Mun'im's hiding behind the speech of Shaykh 'Abdul-Muhsin Al-'Abbaad!  For verily, 'Abdul-Muhsin is busy teaching the books of the Sunnah, and he has not departed from that so as to study the destructive path, irrationalities, or falsehoods of Abul-Hasan. He (Shaykh 'Abdul-Muhsin) reads the arguments, however he does not really enter into the issues, nor does he know their origins, nor does he know how far they have reached, nor does he know who is aiding them!  He has merely has assumed good (about Abul-Hasan) and offered some advice, and moreover this advice is not free of mistakes.  However, we do not cast blame on him regarding his intention, in shaa' Allaah. He has offered some advice, intending to extinguish the fitnah, and then, lo and behold, there is Abul-Fitan and his followers, the people of tribulations, kindling it from anew, claiming in front of the people that Shaykh 'Abdul-Muhsin is with them. No!  Bring forth any of Abul-Hasan's principles, the corrupt principles that allow him to cancel this and affirm that (as he likes)!  Have any of the scholars of the Sunnah, from the East to the West, have any of the scholars of the Kingdom or Yemen adopted them?  None of them (meaning those who generally praise Abul-Hasan) have adopted a single thing that he has come with!  And many of them have not studied this affair. And there also exists a great number of the eminent (scholars) of Ahlus-Sunnah, the forbearing men of them, that have studied the falsehoods, strayings, and principles of this corrupt manhaj of this man, and they have found that he is a person of misguidance and a caller to tribulations, and thus convicted him of innovation, and condemned his principles as being corruption and falsehood. So what does 'Abdul-Mun'im want?  If he wants evil for his own soul, then with this jamaa'ah (QSS) follow him as he leads them into destruction, and makes it a point of argumentation between the Sunnah and its people and the representatives of misguidance?! Verily Abul-Hasan has lead those who follow him right into the ranks of the people of falsehood!  A close union has formed between Abul-Hasan and the people of falsehood and misguidance.  Thus, the biased partisans of Al-Ikhwaan (Al-Muslimoon) and other people of misguidance have merged with him and have assisted him against the people of the Sunnah. Don't you see that if this man was upon any type of truth, then would he have given allegiance to those people?  And they rejoice over his tapes, and they rejoice over this book that Shaykh Al-'Abbaad has written, intending it to be advice, turning it into a war against the people of the Sunnah!   What is the real reason behind this?  The one who has the slightest sense of honor for the Sunnah and the slightest amount of intellect understands the real reason behind this joining of forces, mutual sympathizing, and ties of allegiance between Abul-Hasan and the people of misguidance! This is the meaning of my warning to the people of the Qur'aan and Sunnah Society, I warn them from this man ('Abdul-Mun'im), so long as he does not repent to Allaah, return back to Allaah, and openly announce his repentance and disassociation from Abul-Hasan, the misguided one.  And if he does that (repents), then let them go along with him upon the way of the Book and the Sunnah.  And if he refuses, then it is upon each and every one of them to think about where he is going and not tie himself to the people of falsehood and take their path. This is the affair of the people of misguidance, not the affair of the people of the Sunnah, (for they are) people who gain insight from the Guidance of Allaah and His Messenger, sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam, and follow it. For if a man's own father strays into misguidance, then, by Allaah, he frees himself of him! If a man's own brother deviates, then, by Allaah, he frees himself of him! If this is the case, then what about a man who you have no relationship with, no ties based upon Salafiyyah, and furthermore, no family ties or shared lineage or anything!? "O our Lord, we obeyed our chiefs and elders, and they misguided us from the right path.  O our Lord, give them a double portion of punishment, and curse them with a mighty curse!" [2] These are the disbelievers.  And the people of innovations and misguidance will also have a share of what is mentioned in it (the Verse). So be warned against becoming from those who will have a share of Allaah's Threat, and He has shown that their end result is that they will mutually curse each other and argue with each other in the Next Abode, and Allaah's Refuge is sought. I ask Allaah to guide them, and to take them by their forelocks and lead them to the Truth and to every good thing.
