Indeed This Knowledge Is Deen, So Look To The One You Take Your Deen From
Indeed, those whom knowledge is not to be acquired from, such as the people of innovation-warn against those scholars whom knowledge is to be acquired from. They warn against them with falsehood and describe them with ugly traits, and they describe the people of innovation with beautiful traits as well as defend them. They speak with falsehood, so why should we not speak with the truth. Shaikh Ahmad Bin Yahya An-Najmee (rahimahullaah) said:
'Just as the hizbiyyoon warn against Ahlus Sunnah, then Ahlus Sunnah must (also) be cautious about the hizboyyoon and should warn against them.'
I will give you an example of how the hizbiyyoon issue warning against the Salafi Scholars. This example is present in the magazine called Al-Fityaan No:54, Year:1424H. Its author Muhammad Al-Awaadee said:
It was between the time of maghrib and Ishaa whilst I was paying a visit to the teacher and Islamic Thinker Muhammad Qutub; so I asked him (saying):
Questioner: O ustaadh, from the angle of cultivation, what is your view concerning the methodology and guiding principles of the caller Umar Khaalid?
Muhammad Qutub:Indeed he (Umar Khaalid) possesses an approach, and he puts that into practice in the service of his Religion.
Questioner: Some of the people consider him not a scholar, and for that reason it is not permissible for him to assume this responsibility (i.e. of propagating the religion)
Muhammad Qutub:Many of the scholars are like a locked treasure of information or the transcript (of a text) from a library. This caller (Umar) Khaalid neither says that he is a scholar nor a faqeeh.....

Indeed, This knowledge Is Deen, So Look To The One You Take Your Deen From
Indeed, the error/s (committed in this affair) stresses a greater concern with regards to differentiating between the one from whom knowledge is acquired and the one from whom knowledge is not acquired- due to the result of the great harm and corruption that may arise from this. Sheikh Uthaymeen (rahimahullaah) stated:
'Error/s in the affair/s of the Sharee'ah results in great harm for the Ummah'
Sheikh Saaleh al Fawzaan (hafidha-hullaah) said:
'The youth must be distant from the people of innovations and destructive views, because they bring about evil upon them and cultivate them upon corrupt beliefs, innovations and superstitions; and that is because a teacher does have an influence upon a learner. The youth will deviate through the hands of a misguided teacher and the youth and the students will become upright through the hands of an upright teacher. Therefore, a teacher has a great role and we cannot be lackadaisical in this affair.'

Indeed, the ones from whom knowledge is not acquired are those who sever the path of reward for the Prophet (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam), as Imaam Ibnul Qayyim Al-Jawziyyah (rahimahullaah) said:
'Whoever calls the Ummah to other than the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) is an enemy in truth; because he cuts off the attainment of reward (for the Prophet) (through) that one guided to his Sunnah. This is from the greatest of enmity towards him (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) and we seek refuge with Allah from betrayal.'

And from that which manifests the importance of this subject, is that (with) the disappearance of knowledge ignorance and killing will appear, as reported by Bukhaari and Muslim in the Saheehayn from Abu Hurairah (radiyallaahu-anhu) that the Prophet (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) said:
'knowledge will be taken away (by the death of religious scholars) ignorance (in religion) and afflictions will appear; and Harj will increase.' They said: 'What is Harj, O Messenger of Allah?' He (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) replied by beckoning with his hand indicating 'killing.'
Indeed, the people's need for knowledge is more than their need for food and drink. Imaam Ahmad (rahimahullaah) said:
'The people are more in need of knowledge than food and drink, because food and drink are needed two or three times a day, whilst knowledge is needed at all times.'

Indeed, knowledge will be raised from the earth if it is not acquired from its people; because (as the Scholars) remain knowledge will remain. Allah (Azza-Wa-Jal) does not take away knowledge by taking it away from [the hearts of] the Scholars, but He takes away knowledge by taking the Scholars away, as (reported) in the hadith of Abdullaah Bin Umar (radiyallaahu-anhumaa) in the Saheehayn, from the Prophet (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) who said:
'Allah does not take away the knowledge by taking it away from [the hearts of] the people, but takes it away when none of the 'ulama' remain, and people will take as their leaders ignorant persons who when consulted will give their verdict without knowledge. So they will go astray and will lead the people astray.'
And the reason for the taking away of knowledge through the demise of the Scholars, is (because) there is no Prophet after the Prophet (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam). The nations before us had Prophets to look after their affairs, so whenever a Prophet passed away he was succeeded by (another) Prophet. As for Muhammad (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam), he is the seal of the Prophets and there is no Prophet (to come) after him, but the Scholars are the inheritors of the Prophets.
The Scholars are the inheritors of that which the Prophet (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) has left behind of knowledge. So when the Scholars pass away and knowledge was not acquired from them, then knowledge will be lost through their demise. Imaam Bukhaari (rahimahullaah) said in the Book of Knowledge (in Saheeh Bukhaari): Chapter: 'How will knowledge be taken away'
And Ameerul Mumineen Umar Ibn Abdul Azeez (rahimahullaah) wrote to Abee Bakr Ibn Hazm (rahimahullaah) saying:
''Look to what is (present) from the hadeeth of the Messenger of Allah (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam). Write it down, for I fear for the Doroos of Knowledge; ['The Doroos of knowledge' meaning: they will become scarce and non existent, and the Scholars will pass away. And do not accept, except the hadeeth of the Prophet (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) due to the taking away of knowledge, meaning: spread knowledge and sit (for knowledge) until the one who does not know comes to know; because knowledge will not be destroyed until it becomes hidden.''

The importance of this topic is made known for the fresh continuation of knowledge, so that every group acquires it from a preceding group. Knowledge will be lost if it not acquired from the Ulama, as reported by Bayhaqee in As-Sunan Al-Kubraa from Abdullaah Bin Ubaid who said:
'Indeed, if the teachers reach the Scholars, then scholars will pass away and knowledge will remain with the teachers. And knowledge will depart if the teachers do not reach it (i.e. from the Scholars)'
Therefore, it is not said that the preservation of Books is (the reason) for the continuation of knowledge......

Imaam Ibn Seereen (rahimahullaah) said: 'Indeed, This knowledge Is Deen, So Look To The One You Take Your Deen From
Sheikh Ahmad Bin Umar Bazmool (hafidha-hullaah) stated in explanation of the above statement of Imaam Ibn Seereen (rahimahullaah):
Indeed, Allah (Azza-Wa-Jal) has commanded us this (affair) when He (Azza-Wa-Jal) said: 'So ask the people of the Dhikr (the Reminder), if you do not know'. [21:7]
Allah commanded us to ask the people of the Dzikr (the Reminder), and the Salafus Saalih clarified that the Ulama are the people of the Dhikr. So Allaah (Azza-Wa-Jal) specifying the Ulama as (those) to be asked is evidence that others besides them are not to be asked. And likewise, Imaams Bukhaari and Muslim reported in the Saheehayn on the authority of Aa'isha (radiyallaahu-anhaa) that the Prophet (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) recited the statement of Allah (Azza-Wa-Jal):
''It is He Who has sent down to you (Muhammad) the Book (this Qur'aan)
In it are Verses that are entirely clear, they are the foundations of the Book [and those are the Verses of Al-Ahkaam (commandments, etc.), Al-Faraa'id (obligatory duties) and Al-Hudud (legal laws for the punishment of thieves, adulterers, etc.)]; and others not entirely clear. So as for those in whose hearts there is a deviation (from the truth) they follow that which is not entirely clear thereof, seeking Al-Fitnah (polytheism and trials, etc.), and seeking for its hidden meanings, but none knows its hidden meanings save Allaah.'[3:7]
(Then after reciting the above ayah), he (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) said: 'If you see those who follow thereof that is not entirely clear, then they are those whom Allaah has named [as having deviation from the truth]. So beware of them'[1]
In this hadeeth is a warning against a people who give out knowledge, teach and issue verdicts. So their condition must be known.
Imaam Nawawi (rahimahullaah) said: ''In this hadeeth is a warning against mixing with the people of deviation, the people of bidah and those who seek after the difficult affairs (of the Religion), seeking by it fitnah. So they are not to be consented to, rather (they are to be) restrained and subdued just as Umar Ibnul Khattaab (radiyallaahu-anhu) subdued Sabee Bin Asl when he sought after the Mutashaabih (the unclear verses).
