Innovations and It’s People
Shaykh Salih al-Fawzan states that claiming the first Jumu‘ah adhan was an innovation and labeling ʿUthmān a non-Sunni is itself a bid‘ah. He emphasizes that ʿUthmān is a rightly-guided caliph, and such claims show ignorance of the difference between Sunnah and innovation.

Shaykh Muhammad Aman al-Jami explains that the Ikhwan focus on gathering large numbers without teaching proper Islamic guidance. In contrast, the Salafi approach prioritizes education, purification, and nurturing Muslims with correct beliefs, worship, and manners.

Shaykh Muqbil al-Wadi’i explains that it is not required for many scholars to criticize an innovator for the criticism to be valid. If a trustworthy scholar presents clear evidence of misguidance, it must be accepted, even if no one else has spoken about the person.
Innovations and It’s People
Shaykh Muqbil al-Wadi’i explains that when both praise and criticism exist, detailed criticism takes precedence if it comes from reliable scholars. However, if the critic is weak, biased, or has a hidden agenda, their criticism is not accepted. Context and credibility must be checked.
Current Affairs
Shaykh Zayd al-Madkhali explains that bombing non Muslim or Muslim lands is unlawful and not true jihad. These acts violate treaties, cause mass harm, and resemble the Khawārij. Those involved must repent and submit to Islamic law, as their actions are transgression and oppression.
Sects and 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.

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.
Advice and Admonition
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.
Sects and 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.
Innovations and It’s People
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.
Innovations and It’s People
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.
