Shaykh Salih al-Fawzan states that a Sunni preacher should not teach in a mosque that mixes Sunnah teaching with innovators or deviants. He advises setting a clear condition: teaching is only permissible if the mosque avoids inviting those who oppose the Sunnah.
Shaykh Muḥammad al-Madkhali emphasises that true role models are those who have passed away, as the living may face trials and deviate. He notes the decline of several figures, including Yahya al-Hajuri, who ultimately aligned with Abūl-Hasan and Ali Hasan.
Shaykh Abdullah al-Bukhari warns against Yahya al-Hajuri’s major deviations, including his attacks on the Prophet’s ﷺ Sunnah and his extreme loyalty system. He explains that defending al-Hajuri indicates ignorance or acceptance of his errors, and that his influence harms the Salafi community worldwide.
Shaykh al-ʿUthaymīn explains that the second athan on Friday, called when the imam arrives, is part of the Sunnah. Uthman ibn Affan introduced the first athan only to prepare people due to increasing numbers. Calling this an innovation is incorrect and disrespectful to the Companions.
Shaykh Muqbil al-Wadi‘i criticizes those who praise or support violent extremists like Osama bin Laden and Abu Hamza. He highlights that true Salafis reject such groups, and warns that their actions harm Muslims worldwide and spread fear and injustice.
A person asks whether fasting stops one from discussing narrators under al-jarh wa al-tadʿīl. Shaykh Muhammad ibn Hadi al-Madkhali answers that fasting does prevent it, as speaking about people may resemble backbiting. Therefore he avoids doing it during the day and prefers to speak at night.
Shaykh Muqbil explains that one should not fast one or two days before Ramadan, even if unsure about its start. The Prophet ﷺ explicitly forbade anticipating Ramadan, and if the moon is not sighted, the correct action is to complete Sha‘ban as thirty days.
Shaykh Muqbil al-Wadi’i explains that if someone sleeps before iftar and wakes after dawn, the fast still continues. The ruling is based on early practice and the Quranic permission to eat until dawn, confirming the fast is not broken by sleeping.
Shaykh Salih al-Luhaydan explains that Iran was historically Sunni, mainly following the Shafi‘i school. In the 9th century AH, the Safawi king Isma‘il bin Haidar carried out mass killings of Sunni scholars and followers, leading to Iran’s shift toward Shia dominance.
Shaykh Muqbil al-Wadi’i explains that if food is already in your mouth when the Athan is called, you should not spit it out, but you must not eat anything else afterward. Drinking is allowed only if the water is still in your hand when the Athan begins.
Shaykh Ahmad al-Najmi states that it is permissible to mention an innovator by name when warning others, especially if he is causing fitnah or leading people astray. Naming him helps protect the community from being misled.
The question asks whether dying in Ramadan is a sign of righteousness and if the virtues of such a death are authentically reported. Shaykh Muqbil al-Wadi’i states that while reports exist, they are not authentic, so it is not considered a reliable sign.
