Muslim Brotherhood and Political Groups
Shaykh Muhammad al-Madkhali warns against the new group al-Mukhadilyun who abandon Ahl al-Sunnah and spread false accusations. Their goal is to weaken the Sunnah from within and mislead ordinary Muslims. The faithful must remain firm and avoid their influence.
Innovation and Innovators
Shaykh Salih al-Fawzan explains that refuting those who oppose the Sunnah is part of the Prophet’s ﷺ methodology. The Qur’an and Sunnah contain many refutations, and the Salaf practiced this. Staying silent to avoid division is not correct.
Principles of the Salafī Methodology
Shaykh Rabi stresses that if a shaykh makes a mistake, you must accept the truth even if it contradicts your shaykh. Do not follow blindly or become partisan. Criticism based on evidence and respect is allowed, and mistakes must be corrected regardless of status.
Muslim Brotherhood and Political Groups
Shaykh Rabi warns against blind loyalty to personalities, groups, or methodologies. He urges Muslims to follow the truth based on evidence and to unite under Allah’s guidance. Patience, humility, and steadfastness on the Sunnah are essential for true unity.

Shaykh Muqbil advises Muslims to avoid attending the lectures, gatherings, and mosques of hizbis and innovators. He encourages praying on the Sunnah, even with only a few people, and returning only when they follow correct Islamic teachings.
Innovation and Innovators
Shaykh Muqbil advises Ahl al-Sunnah to avoid attending gatherings or lectures of people of innovation. Doing so weakens their influence and prevents spreading falsehood. He emphasizes that these meetings are based on deception, so avoiding them is a strong form of advising.
Muslim Brotherhood and Political Groups
Hizbiyah means partisan loyalty to a deviant ideology that opposes the Qur’an and Sunnah. A hizb is not required to be organized; it is any group that clings to false beliefs and argues for them. If they are organized, their corruption is even greater.
Khawārij and Extremism
The scholars explain that the Prophet ﷺ did not praise the Khawarij. The hadith about their prayer and fasting ends with a warning that they will leave the religion like an arrow passing through a target. This is a clear dispraise, not praise, and praising them is incorrect.
Khawārij and Extremism
Shaykh ʿAbd al-Raḥmān Muhiyadīn condemns the debate with a Khārijī supporter who declares Makkah to be a land of disbelief. He warns that both parties are ignorant and harmful to Islam, emphasising that speaking without knowledge and engaging with extremists only damages the religion.

Shaykh Aḥmad al-Najmī explains the correct principles of boycotting ahl al-bidʿah. He emphasises that boycotting is permissible only when it brings benefit and may lead the innovator to repent. If it only increases stubbornness, Muslims should avoid them without showing kindness, while maintaining moderation and balance.
Innovation and Innovators
Shaykh Ahmad an-Najmi explains that boycotting must have a clear benefit, especially to guide people back to the truth. If boycotting increases stubbornness, then it is not required. Instead, avoid closeness and kindness, but greet if approached, and maintain moderation without exaggeration.
Scholars and Students of Knowledge
Shaykh Salih al-Fawzan advises that fatwa must be sought from trustworthy scholars known for their knowledge and piety. The recipient should avoid those who issue rulings without proper knowledge, and instead rely on established scholars who are firm and reliable.
