Mr. Williams, I just want to say that you have a great impact on us, some of the impacts that we got from you is that you are more proud and knowledgeable in a modern way which strengthen the faith. Thank you very much and keep going, we need people like you.
@@srnp0007 many scholars didn't study or learn in the modern world, some interpretations doesn't fit this era or if they do, it will be very superficial for example they would give fatwa about economic system and they know nothing about it or even study it which leads to halal interest fatwa. Other example, they hide and lie about knowledge because they believe that you would disbelieve if they teach you some interpretations which is different from what you're been teached, so they fix the wrong by continuing to lie. I can give you tons of examples but I will stop here.

Ameen. That what I always see too. Indeed Brother Paul from his actions we see that his striving/adhering towards truth. Indeed Allahu subhanahu wa ta'ala will never wrong him in this world nor in the hereafter.
Thank you so much Paul for this one! Hopefully this will clarify a lot of issues to people who didn't have ideas about the creed. Furthermore, it's a surprise to hear that the Shaykh went to KCL!! :) i went there too :D but during the years when he wasn't even in the UK! May Allah bless you both. Thank you again
Great work Paul. May Allah reward you for your work. Great to see the defence of the manhaj as-salaf on your channel. I will say it’s quite brave of you as most people in your line of content may stay away from this topic as to garner as much support across the board. Great job standing on principles. May Allah increase you in success. Ameen
@@BloggingTheology 14:00 Smart question, Paul. I heard Sheikh Abdulaziz Al-Tarifi say that to the Shiites also who worship the graves, and he said that the word “we are Muslims” is not a proof of Islam because the infidels of the polytheistic Quraish were also saying that we are on the Hanafi school, which is the religion of the Prophet Ibrahim.

You made a good point at around 20:50 I live in germany and salafiyyah here is completly seen as extreme, even almost all muslims here see salafiyya as something radical due to ignorance. They always connect it with terrorism. The situation here is rly terrible. Im glad that in the UK you have a clearer view of salafiyya and dont falsy connected it with extremism like here in germany.
O neo-salafis of today! Do you really think following your reviver Mohammed Ibn Abdul Wahab wil take you to Jannah? Have you forgotten the "Hadith about Najd" ? Read on. If you can "see" with the eyes of your heart and you are not brain dead, then the following is a wakeup call for you to repent from todays "neo Salafism" : 1. "Narrated Ibn `Umar: The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "O Allah! Bestow Your blessings on our Sham! O Allah! Bestow Your blessings on our Yemen." The People said, "And also on our Najd." He said, "O Allah! Bestow Your blessings on our Sham (north)! O Allah! Bestow Your blessings on our Yemen." The people said, "O Allah's Apostle! And also on our Najd." I think the third time the Prophet (ﷺ) said, "There (in Najd) is the place of earthquakes and afflictions and from there comes out the side of the head of Satan."" : sunnah.com/bukhari:7094 Now the interesting part here is that the Sahabah who said: "And also on our Najd." were Sahabah from the Najd area of Arabia at that time. Reason is that though many of todays "neo salafis" claim it's najd of Iraq, Iraq was not even Muslim country at that time ,so the Sahabah was from Najd of Arabia. To back this point up you need to look at Hadith about Miqat points for Haj, and it is clearly mentioned that Iraq was not Muslim at that time,so there were no Sahabah from Iraq asking for blessing for their " iraq najd"(as claimed by neo salafis) , but they were asking for blessing for the Najd of Arabia. Narrated `Abdullah bin Dinar: Ibn `Umar said, "The Prophet (ﷺ) fixed Qarn as the Miqat (for assuming the Ihram) for the people of Najd, and Al-Juhfa for the people of Sham, and Dhul-Hulaifa for the people of Medina." Ibn `Umar added, "I heard this from the Prophet, and I have been informed that the Prophet (ﷺ) said, 'The Miqat for the Yemenites is Yalamlam.' "When Iraq was mentioned, he said, "At that time it was not a Muslim country." sunnah.com/bukhari:7344 2. Imam Bukhari even wrote a whole chapter called : "(16)Chapter: “Al-Fitnah will appear from the EAST.” : sunnah.com/bukhari/92 Several Hadith mentions that the fitna will appear from the EAST. Only Najd of Arabia lies to the East of Medina ( Hijaz) : Narrated Salim's father: The Prophet (ﷺ) stood up beside the pulpit (and pointed with his finger towards the East) and said, "Afflictions are there! Afflictions are there, from where the side of the head of Satan comes out," or said, "..the side of the sun.."sunnah.com/bukhari:7092 Narrated Ibn `Umar: I heard Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) while he was facing the East, saying, "Verily! Afflictions are there, from where the side of the head of Satan comes out." sunnah.com/bukhari:7093 Abu Hurairah narrated that the Messenger of Allah(s.a.w) said: "Faith is Yemeni, and disbelief is from the direction of the EAST. Tranquility is for the people of sheep, and wickedness and Riya is in those who boast among the people of horses and the people of camels....sunnah.com/tirmidhi:2243 Now tell me who in the EAST boast among the people of horses and the people of camels? People from Najd in arabia! 3. In the first Hadith mentioned above قَرْنُ الشَّيْطَانِ ". " ( QARN-usheitan ) is mentioned. Interestingly Syyedina Mohammed (pbuh) said that Miqat point for Najd in Saudi is QARN : Narrated Salim bin `Abdullah from his father: I heard Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) saying, "The Miqat for the people of Medina is Dhul-Hulaifa; for the people of Sham is Mahita; (i.e. Al-Juhfa); and for the people of Najd is QARN. And said Ibn `Umar, "They claim, but I did not hear personally, that the Prophet (ﷺ) said, "The Miqat for the people of Yemen is Yalamlam." sunnah.com/bukhari:1528 4. Now look at this google map. Najd of Saud lies to EAST of Madinah, and Iraq is NORTH-EAST : aalequtub.files.wordpress.com/2019/12/13912697_1218930288140440_5976180288688380779_n.jpg Conclusion: The Hadith of Najd speaks about najd of Arabia and none other najd anywhere else.So anyone who wants to save their akhirah,should repent from wahabism and come over to Sufism and join true Ahlus Sunnah Wal Jamah aqeedah: www.ahlus-sunna.com
Sahih Bukhari: Prophet peace and blessings be upon him "I have loved the people of the tribe of Banu Tamim, ever since I heard three things the Messenger of Allaah , sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam, said about them. I heard him saying, 'these people (of the tribe of Banu Tamim) would stand firm against the Dajjaal.' When the Saddaqat from that tribe came, the Messenger of Allaah , sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam, said, "these are the Saddaqat (charitable gifts) of our folk." Aa'ishah had a slave girl from that tribe, and the Prophet , sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam, said to Aa'ishah, 'manumit her as she is a descendant of Ismaa'eel, alayhis salaam.'" ahadith 2543 and 4366 of al-Fath Also from Musnad Ahmad ibn Hanbal: "do not say of Bani Tameem anything but good, for indeed they are the severest of people in attacking the Dajjaal." Banu Tamim are the majority of people of the so-called Najd (Saudi Arabia). To label Najd as that area of Saudi Arabia would be in contradiction of the many hadeeth relating to Bani Tameem especially those in which they fight the Dajjal, who comes from the Najd that is to the East.

Great discussion, God bless both of you brothers . Shaykh Hassan has been doing great work in Philadelphia, hundreds of new converts, and he along with the brothers at George Town masjid have invested into their local neighborhood and taking a lead in providing value to their communities. The purchased abounded building and have opened halal business, teaching programs, etc. an updated interview would be great for the viewers to see the positive changes Islam has made to that community.
A very informative interview regarding the meaning of the term “salafi” and it’s significance in repelling the notion that Islam is a barbaric and backwards faith. Learnt alot quite frankly.
@Fisabilillah فِي سَبِيلِ ٱللَّٰهِ brother your getting Thai from forums. Please be neutral. Look at the massacres and actually buy the books and read them. If you can’t buy the books and can’t read them, then please read the history carefully without being one sided. I use to be a wahabi alhumdullah I stopped making takfir and calling others people of innovation once I saw him for what he truly was. But kitab at tawhid is a beneficial book no doubt but the movement isn’t and the massacres were disgusting. Prophet said , if you make takfir on someone one of you is a kafir. Stop misquoting and picking and choosing. This isn’t the place for argument and long discussions. Just read up on history and the movement. Bismillah. Salam all .
@@mrafiuddin Why does that matter to you or us? The important thing to ask is are we following the way of the salaf? We can't judge people but we can judge ourselves.
@@mrafiuddin Salafism emerged from Hanbalism, you're correct. Hanbalis were largly sectarian and psycho-extremists who persecuted and killed anyone who disagreed with them. Just look at the gruesome way they killed Sheikh Al Moufassereen Ibn Jarir Al-Tabari, for saying that he doesn't consider Ahmed Ibn Hanbal to have a unique Madh'aab/school of Sunni jurisprudence, but considers him to be a Moh'adet/hadith traditionist only.
@@wide_eyed_corpsebride how ignorant is this, Imam Ibn Hanbal was persecuted by the Mutazilah for preserving the Quran and beleif in Allah's attributes, they were persecuted not the other way around! Imam Ashari also followed him in end! and its his school that preserved the hadiths as he was Bukaris teachers, you are clearly very ignorant person!
@@falsesectslikeshiaarejudeo6543 Ibn Hanbal was persecuted, sure, no sane person denies that. But his followers turned out to be persecuters in their own right. They shamelessly killed Al-Tabari, a person with great 'Ilm and one of the great Mufassereen of the Qur'an, they besieged his house and refused to even let people give him a proper Janaza and burial worthy of his contributions and status. From their sect, we saw the genesis of the Takfiris and the sectarians and the current Jihadi Salafis who cheapen the blood of Muslims and kill anyone who mildly disagrees with them.
What an excellent, well mannered, informative, well paced, and absolutely necessary discussion and conversation between our brother Paul and Shaykh Hasan As-Somālī - may Allāh preserve them both, āmīn. I hope and pray that you will have other Senior Salafī Students of Knowledge on your channel, in shā Allāh. Again, great job my brother. BārakaAllāhu fīkum! 🌺
I would like to thank you for organizing such a great talk. I always wanted to communicate the true meaning of the Salafi path as I myself found it as the most authentic way to the true Islam, but I am usually confronted with a huge bias that leaves no open room for an educational discussion. This problem is present even among Arabic Muslims. However, Shaykh Hasan and you managed to communicate in a proper and open way that was actually so beneficial for me as well. I actually thank you for bringing someone like Sheykh Hassan (whom I actually did not know before this video) to explain the proper position of Muslims and in particular when it comes to the Salafi path. People either in the west or even in the Arabic/Muslim communities might confuse Salafi (as a path that calls to follow the first generations of Islam) with the terrorist groups (who are the enemies of everybody) due to biased views from media or wherever. My point here is that names by the end of the day are just names. We have to look at facts and actions. For example, Abdullah Ibn Salool was the head of Monafeqon (a group of people who are apparently believers "Muslims" but are actually disbelievers) at the time of the prophet peace be upon him. Then Allah has revealed to his prophet in Quraan a full verse called Al-Munafiqun that Allah knows about them and they are at the deepest point in the Hellfire even below the disbelievers. These groups neither benefited from calling themselves Muslims nor represented in any way what it means to be a Muslim. There are several other examples from Quraan and Sunnah and this is one of them.
Thanks! Just for futue consideration: There are many people talking none sense about the true Islam and/or the Salafi path as with many other topics. Therefore, it is not easy to know to whom someone can talk to. But I really felt that you are only interested to get as much as unbiased view as possible. This is also my path actually and that is why I found your channel very useful and impactful. So just keep going. We have a lot to share and it will be interesting to see more content from you especially when it comes to orthodox Christianity and orthodox Islam. I would really like to ask you to have another talk with Sheykh Hassan to clarify more about: 1. Authentic Islam message (which is mainly to worship God only and not just to believe in God) that was carried by all prophets and their honest followers. This by itself can be a series of discussions. 2. (if possible) the cults in Islam, why their claims are dismissed by Quraan and Sunah and why they still exist.
Clear and Well explained jazakumullahu khairan.. May Allah guide who respect and wanted to know what and who are salaafys.. Thus are the true-faith followers which will lead the rise of ISLAM Barakallahu fiikum
"There will come a time when the nations will gather against you, just as people gather around a feast.’ A man said, ‘Will it be because we will be few at that time, Oh Messenger of Allah?’. He responded, ‘No, you will be numerous in those times, but you will be like the scum of the sea, and Allah will remove your fear from the hearts of your enemies, and He will place al-Wahn in your hearts’, It was asked, ‘What is al-Wahn?’, he responded, “Love of the Dunya, and hatred of death”
Monotheism is the path of the friends of the Prophet Muhammad and they must be followed, not the innovators I heard that Shamsi was also a Sufi and left her.
Sufi isn't out of islam. Hasan al basri was sufi because of his great piety Being a sufi means that one does not have any love for this world and has a very high taqwa. They follow their reliable sheikh footsteps. However, people calling themselves sufi today are just singing and dancing and other biddats and they say we are sufi. A particular way of clothing and particular way of dance with one hand up and down and just rotating spreading your kurta They misrepresent sufism.
@@notaknot3768 No one is talking about about early sufism. Too many modern innovaters hide behind early Sufism which was in line with Quran and sunnah.
Alhamdulillaah this was very beneficial. May Allaah rectify these extremists and guide them and us all upon pure Islaam upon the way of the salaf. Ãmeen
Thank you for this excellent interview! A much needed clarification of the salafi position from an articulate and persuasive shaykh. I also grew up in Cardiff and went to the same school as "Hasan Abdi". I remember when he first started practising Islam in high school and his thirst for knowledge. I often found him studying "Riyadh us Saliheen" in the 6th form lounge when other students were gossiping or playing pool. I also remember his smile and his warmth with people. May Allah continue to shower his blessings on you Shaykh!
Wow Mr. Williams this was a surprise. Shaykh Hasan Somali has been very influential on my life over the past 20 some years and the lives of many here in America. He is a light for the Muslims of Philly and America as a whole.

A bold step brother Paul. Salafiyyah has been maligned a lot especially in the West by non Muslims and some of the Muslims alike. Hopefully this helps in clearing up a lot of misunderstanding and misconceptions attributed to Salafis and Salafiyyah especially coming from one of the seniormost and respectable Salafi students, Shaykh Hasan as-Somali (may Allah preserve him). May Allah reward you immensely brother Paul that you are using your platform in giving a just and fair opportunity to be heard and understood correctly.

As for Erdogan, then whoever makes takfir of him is either not a Salafee but only a claimant or is absolutely ignorant. He's a Muslim and he is a legitimate ruler of a Muslim country. And your accusations of "indirect takfie" has now weight.
subhanaLlah! at 9:03 Paul stated how he is confused as to why any muslim should have opposition to the orthodox (salafi) call of warning against worshipping and veneration of saints(like the sufis do) because this is clearly stated in Surah al-Fatiha. This is what I call pure fitrah (innate disposition). The truth is clear to the blind.
Thank Paul and Shikh AsSomali for the informative discussion. I just wanted to clarify something as a native Arabic speaker and a neutral main stream Suni Muslim. Thanks to AsSomali's comment, I took my time reviewing Borda'at Albosair,i together with my husband who is very critical towards most of the Sufi sayings and practices, looking for kofri expression within it. we could not find any. Borda is a great poem that is full of love and appreciation of the prophet (pbuh) while stating at multiple occasions that he is a man and denying what Christians claim about Jesus. I find it really disturbing when Muslims start to accuse fellow Muslims with Kofor as this is against the teachings of the prophet (pbuh) who was absolutely inclusive. Moreover, divisions weaken the Umah and probably serve the never old imperialist agenda. Allah knows best.
@@عبدالله-ن6ه2ص Here are two samples, if you like.

I think that the most profound testament to the truth of Islam is the fact that no single individual/group can have the last word. As the Quran says, "You shall resort to pardoning and advocate recognition" 7:199. Ultimately we were created as individuals and God will judge us as individuals. No one's perspective on these things is "all-encompassing", save that of God.
Mr. Williams, since you have given this man a platform on your channel, then perhaps you should allow for someone to come on and counter some of the whitewashed rhetoric that has been expressed here, someone who will show Salafiyyah as a splinter movement within Islam. It is not representative of mainstream Sunni Islam, and the particular brand of Salafism that the speaker here follows-Madkhalism (or the Madakhilah)-is a splinter group within a splinter group. Maybe the two people whom he mentioned by name, Shaykh Hamza Yusuf and Shaykh Yasir Qadhi, could come on here and do it. One of the biggest misappropriations exhibited here that the Salafiyyah (which is Wahhabiyyah renamed) promote is this understanding that the idol-worshipping Arabs during the time of the Prophet صلى الله عليه و سلم and the "polytheists" during the time of MIAW (Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab) were the same. This is probably the biggest myth that has been pushed as a narrative that Wahhabis have used as a pretext to kill Muslims whom they have branded as polytheists (mushriks), either by way of misunderstandings of some of the practices of the Muslims of that time (and prior), or a deliberate quest for power and control of the sacred precincts of Makkah and Madinah. An objective study of the Wahhabi movement will reveal both, and it had nothing with establishing "pure tawhid", like what you will find in many of the glossy books of the Wahhabis as being the reason for the slaughter of people who have said 'laa ilaha illallah'. This is the biggest distortion of the Wahhabi movement, making Muslims into mushriks on misunderstandings and technicalities, and it is a foundation for the movement.

Abdal Hakim Murad is an inheritor of what we today call Traditionnal islam. Traditionnal islam is "Sunni islam before Salafism" appeared some 2 centuries ago. Almost 95% or more of Sunni scholars in history, from Imam Nawawi to Ibn Hajar Al Asqalani, share it's main views which are: 1)The Aqida of the salaf formulated with a rational terminology by Imam Ashari and Imam Maturidi to counter the rationalist heresy of the Mu'tazila or the Aqida of the salad in it's original form (Athari). (The athari almost disappeared over time not because they weren't recognize but because many anthropomorphist interpretation came from some the fake scholars among them which made the Ashari and Maturidi more popular amongst scholars to avoid innovations in Aqeeda.) 2)The following of one of the four school of law, recognizing that their differences are all authentic way of understanding the aspects of the religion that are not definitive (The waiting time for a widow to remarry for example is not definitive as the word use in the Qu'ran can have many meanings in Arabic language) 3) Following the path of purification of the heart from the salaf laid down by Imam Al Junayd and his students which was know as tassawuf. (Sufism). Interestingly, Salafis generally call Traditionnal islam "Extreme sufism" which means that without realizing, Salafism consider almost all scholars of Sunni islam in history as extreme sufis...Why? Because all those scholars use to recognize sufism as an essential part of islam and all almost of them use to consider the question of intercession (Asking Allah through the Baraka of someone who's past away) as part of the understanding. The accusation of Traditionnal islam against Salafism is that: 1)Their considering of Intercession (To ask Allah through the Baraka of someone who past away) as Shirk is contrary to all previous Sunni Scholars and creates the biggest division Sunni islam ever witnessed in it's history. 2) Their discouraging of following Traditionnal schools of law open the doors of all unqualified scholars to formulated inauthentic opinions which open the doors for big innovations in the law. The fact that all terrorist groups are from the salafis and that none of them are from Traditionnal islam is for them one of the greatest proof. 3)Their rejection of mainstream sufism made them presenting an islam which is know form it's dryness and which affect the dawaah in a very bad way. The fact that in the past, muslims were recognize in the whole world as masters of spirituality to the current image of islam being a religion who's focus is on ritual and rules is clearly linked with the propagation of salafism according to them.

Took me a whole 6 years to come to Tawheed and Sunnah upon methodology of the Salaf. Especially after my visit to Maktabah Salafiyya in Birmingham in the UK. Celebrity Muslim speakers didn't help me in that path. None of them invite to the upright scholars of Sunnah. Alhamdolillah for Islam.
I really feel sorry for people like you. The forefather of ISIS Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahab was a filthy individual who made takfir upon the Muslims and also made the blood of the Muslims halal and slaughtered them... This is written in the history books of the Wahabiyya.
Allah commands the Muslims to follow the Salaf in Surat Tawbah, 9:100. The Prophet ﷺ said: The best generation is my generation, then those who came after them and then those who came after them.

www.abukhadeejah.com/categories/what-is-salafism-our-call-dawah/ To be a Salafi means adhering to the Creed, Methodology and the way of life of the Salaf As-Sālih (the Pious Predecessors). The earliest of the Salaf was the generation of our Prophet (صلى الله عليه وسلم) and his Companions. Then after them came the virtuous three generations of believers who held fast to the Sunnah (Path) of the Prophet and his Companions. The person who understands this path correctly, follows it exactly, without introducing anything into it and nor deviating from it is a Salafi. To be a Salafi is not merely to imagine that one is upon the true path of the Salaf, but Salafism is to study the religion of the Companions and follow it - it was they who understood best the meanings and intent of the speech and actions of the Prophet (صلى الله عليه وسلم).
The Prophet warned against deviated people at his time, likewise the companions and their students, and the scholars after them. If someone deviates then it's upon us to call that out and not be silent. This is from preserving the purity of Islam
@@maquacr7014 to be precise, the prophet warned from making takfeer of someone unjustly. But the prophet and Allah made takfeer of those who committed actions that took them out of Islam.

Thanks Mr. Williams. I conclude that, Don't abandon our good habits as a nation when we have converted to Islam, don't forget to lose the characteristics of our nation, keep doing that habit as long as it's not shirk.

Khawarij also used to claim what Salafis claimed but in the end, actions speak louder than words they do everything similar to Khawarij and not the salaf.
oh? what is similar between the khawarij and the salafi? The salafi follow the Qur'an and Sunnah according to the understanding of the Comapnions (May Allah be pleased with them). As for Rebellion (khurooj), it is defined as attempting to snatch away authority from the ruler, opposing him publicly, attempting to force him out of office, inciting the people against him (through demonstrations, rallies, public protests, strikes, etc), plotting against him and rising up to challenge him with writings, sermonising or the sword. Muslim reported in his Sahīh (1847) from Wā’il Ibn Hujr that: Salamah Ibn Yazeed Al-Ju’fee asked Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ): “O Prophet of Allah, what do we do if we have rulers over us who demand their rights yet they withhold our rights?” He replied: “Listen to them and obey them [regardless]. Upon them is their burden and on you will be your burden.” Obedience to the ruler, whether he is righteous, pious, sinful or tyrannical is an obligation. Muslim reported in his Sahīh (1836) from Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (ﷺ) said: “You are obligated to listen to the ruler and obey him in times of ease and in times of hardship, whether you are pleased or displeased and even when another person is given preference over you (while you were more deserving).” Source for most of this: www.abukhadeejah.com/ahlus-sunnah-wal-jamaah-believe-that-rebellion-against-the-rulers-is-forbidden/

@@mkc3177 like I said already, the khawaarij have left off the understanding of the salaf, so they aren't following the exact deen Allah sent down since Allah sent it down with an understanding to follow also, and that was taught to the sahaaba by the prophet When ibn Abbas debated them, the first thing he said is "I see none of us amongst you", meaning the sahaaba. So they left off the inheritors of the prophet, and the prophets bequeath knowledge So, I'm not too sure what point you're trying to get at, but if you actually read the works of Muhammed bin Abdul wahhab and not propaganda about him, you'd see that his works consist of evidences and quotes from the salaf.

As for anything besides these types of tawassul, then there is disagreement about it, and what we believe firmly and hold as our religion before Allaah, the Most High, is that other ways are not permissible, and not prescribed. This is because there is no acceptable proof for them, and these things have been spo- ken against by the verifying scholars in successive centuries of Islamic history. Even though some of them have been allowed by some of the scholars, so [for instance] Imaam Ahmad allowed tawassul by means of the Messenger ( ) alone, and others such as Imaam ash-Shawkaanee allowed tawassul by means of him and other Prophets and the Pious. However we, as is the case in all matters where there is disagreement, follow whatever is supported by the proof whatever that is, without blindly sticking to the opinions of men. We do not align ourselves except with the truth. So with regard to the question of tawassul, which we are presently discussing, then we see that the truth is with those who warn against tawassul by means of any created being, and we warn against tawassul by means of any created being. Indeed they cannot find anything to support what they hold except doubts which they raise and possibilities Sheikh albani book on tawassul. Pg36. Imam ahmad RH has weak iman? That he allowed tawassul?
@Blogging Theology It was narrated from Mu’aawiyah ibn Abi Sufyaan (may Allaah be pleased with him) that he said: The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) stood among us and said: “Those who came before you of the people of the Book split into seventy-two sects, and this ummah will split into seventy-three: seventy-two in Hell and one in Paradise, and that is the jamaa’ah (main body of Muslims).” The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) also described them in the following terms: “My ummah will split into seventy-three sects, all of whom will be in Hell except one group.” They said: Who are they, O Messenger of Allaah? He said: “(Those who follow) that which I and my companions follow.” This is mentioned in the hadeeth of ‘Abd-Allaah ibn ‘Amr which was recorded and classed as hasan by al-Tirmidhi (2641). It was also classed as hasan by al-‘Iraaqi in Ahkaam al-Qur’aan (3/432), al-‘Iraaqi in Takhreej al-Ihya’ (3/284) and al-Albaani in Saheeh al-Tirmidhi. Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah (may Allaah have mercy on him) said: The sign of the people of bid’ah is that they do not follow the salaf. End quote from Majmoo’ al-Fataawa (4/155).

The biggest problem with Muhamad ibn Abdul wahab is that he was the first person to consider tawasul to graves shirk while most orthodox scholars through history considered it haram. If you want his older brother Faisal ibn abdulawahab wrote a refutation towards his brother.

I think it's easier for a Muslim who reverted to Islam to identify that Salafiyah is the truth cause it makes perfect sense to follow the religion how the Prophet Peace and Blessings be upon him conveyed it and the people who understood it the best are his companions. Salafiyah is pure Islam with nothing added and nothing taken away. It's either you follow it correctly or you follow your desires. If you are a truthful and just person you won't argue with what Allaah commanded and what the Messenger peace and blessings be upon him brought, taught and warned against.
That is because new converts are unaware of their deceptions. They sound very good with their claims following sunnah and in reality, they are just takfiris ready to unleash their favourite weapon of takfir. When it will do the most harm to the ummah.

This discussion would have even better served if it was divided into two sections Orthodoxy and orthopraxy All sunni schools are united in Orthodoxy. It is Orthopaxy they are differ and is due different narrations
Core deviations that occurs among muslims is related to orthodoxy and is of prime concern. Although in Islam, orthodoxy and orthopraxy aren't so distinct due to the concepts like 'practice defines or affects belief'. Not talking about jurisprudential differences which are of secondary importance, but real sects among claimed sunnis like Asharis, Maturidhis, Mu'tazalites, Khawarij, Qadarees is based on orthodoxy.
@@dawoodbanday6267 primacy of Quran and sunnah is well established among all Muslims. The ideological differences by different schools deals with secondary qualities related to Divine Nature
No it's not. It's complete opposite. Orthopraxy, refers to practice, and almost all Muslims accept the legitimacy of each others schools (madhabs) and the opinions and practices thereof. However, the difference is in orthodoxy, which refers to beliefs. Of course, the core beliefs of Sunnis for example are the same, but in some foundational, and later branch issues, Muslims begin to divide into branches and branches, coupled with the influence of various beliefs as a result of Muslims engaging in philosophy. It is only the difference between concerning beliefs - that division occurs, in terms of misguidance, innovation (Bid'ah) and disbelief (Kufr). Beliefs are in general more central to religion, than practice. The practice build upon the beliefs. The Salafi concern is precisely about orthodoxy, and having the correct beliefs with regard to the understand of the Salaf (first three generation), and mostly is about having the correct approach to interpretation which is literal (Athari), and following the companions and those who come after with regard to the other branch issues. In the modern era, because of the political climate, Muslims have developed this kind of collectivism in the fact of a dominant civilization, and as such the focus on theological differences has declined, and a focus on unity has increased. Therefore, the only central issue discussed between Muslims mainly today, remains orthopraxy issues of the Sharia. But the more fundamental issues occurring among Muslims is beliefs. Beliefs and interpretations are at the center of difference the non-violent majority and the notorious jihadists for example. The Salafi concern is an orthodoxy concern, and they uphold the importance of this, and the most fundamental of all beliefs - Tawhid.

Second: The Turks have their geographical borders in Central Asia, and they have no right to the presence of the Turkish military in the Arab countries Third: The dispute between the first Saudi state and the Ottoman Empire regarding monotheism first, and the historical error in the presence of Turkish soldiers in the Arabian Peninsula Fourth: The first Saudi state expelled the Turks and the English did not have a presence in the Arab countries.. Then the Great Arab Revolt led by Hussein, the grandson of the Prophet Muhammad, for the same reason expelled the Turks. The land of the Arabs shakes off the polytheists who worship the shrines.

There are some ridiculous attitudes that show up in these comments sections showing how lost some who call themselves Muslims are, but show how out of touch with the reality of life they really are. One of these lost states is regarding the argument about where Allah is? To be above something, also means you are greater than it. That your position is a higher one means you are above and beyond what is being said or understood about who you are. Language itself acts as a gauge of our capacity to express the greater reality of life more clearly. Or for those that allow myths and hypocracy to get in the way, its lack of clarity is there to confuse them. When people talk non-sense it is very easy to see they have not grasped hold of the correct context of the words they are using to de-scribe reality. The actual word, understand in english is made up of two seperate words under and stand. Being under something, means we look up at it or to it, or in a spiritual context we put the idea we believe in at a higher place above us (we hold it as a having a higher value in our lives). To stand for something, means we hold onto a value making sure no matter what happens to us, we hold firm standing by what we believe is true, even to our death. True under-standing is actually inferring these qualities become the action we implement, in our beliefs that we stand for in life. This concept of under-standing takes its meaning to a much higher level, which is the same principle that the word Islam in Arabic refers to. A person is not being true to what they know if they do not hold their principles to above all other things, always staying below sub- missive to these higher values. Standing up to protect them with our lives. This is jihad. An example if this is to know the true principle of what Halel means: blessed by Allah, to know all life has been blessed by Allah, then not re-spect it, to mistreat His Creation is hypocracy. Or just to think we can mumble the words Bismilallah. And that makes it ok to abuse Allah's Creation To say one thing then do the other, only makes us hypocrites, not servents doing Allah's Will on earth. Sadly in today's modern world where a person's word mean nothing, even those who call themselves Muslim are doing so only in word not in their actions, which are still tied to the dunyah. This understanding of Islam is theoretical only, it is not a lifestyle and the actual mentality towards life being followed is still fully westernised. These actions, which have nothing to do with the truth of Islam or its correct values, or to stand up for what is true that we as true Muslims should have kept high above us. These types of self centred attitudes do not hold the right value of life or where it comes from in our beliefs in the correct place. As fake muslins we might continue a few Islamic traditions in our lives that we think are required of us, like praying 5 times a day or not eat during Ramadan. But the great path and higher truth of Islam is not in our hearts, the dunnah is. That's all we care about, and as Our beloved Prophet said, "those who think this way have already received their full reward in this life". It's a bit disappointing to notice some comments being deleted in these open chat. I speak from direct experience, where members of fanatic groups actually wanted to cut my head off, for standing up to them in person and upsetting them, because they tried to force their one eyed views onto me and I refused to accept such a one eyed views of Islam that can aldo be seen by many who make comments in here. Those who threatened to attack me, might not have been the Salafi's you might know, but that's what they also called themselves.
Why ask a sufi about what Salafis believe?! That makes no sense what so ever. And the ironic thing is that you call this neutral. Lol That's more of a sufi bias. Be sincere bro!

Ameen. That what I always see too. Indeed Brother Paul from his actions we see that his striving/adhering towards truth. Indeed Allahu subhanahu wa ta'ala will never wrong him in this world nor in the hereafter.
Thank you so much Paul for this one! Hopefully this will clarify a lot of issues to people who didn't have ideas about the creed. Furthermore, it's a surprise to hear that the Shaykh went to KCL!! :) i went there too :D but during the years when he wasn't even in the UK! May Allah bless you both. Thank you again
Great work Paul. May Allah reward you for your work. Great to see the defence of the manhaj as-salaf on your channel. I will say it’s quite brave of you as most people in your line of content may stay away from this topic as to garner as much support across the board. Great job standing on principles.

@@BloggingTheology 14:00 Smart question, Paul.
I heard Sheikh Abdulaziz Al-Tarifi say that to the Shiites also who worship the graves, and he said that the word “we are Muslims” is not a proof of Islam because the infidels of the polytheistic Quraish were also saying that we are on the Hanafi school, which is the religion of the Prophet Ibrahim.
A well selected Imām that represents true orthodox Islam who denounced extremism in all forms. Great stuff
Was looking forward to this topic. Allahu Mubarak ❤️

@@devildad666fff Allah is blessed, in the opening supplication of the prayers (authentic narration) u begin with.

You made a good point at around 20:50
I live in germany and salafiyyah here is completly seen as extreme, even almost all muslims here see salafiyya as something radical due to ignorance. They always connect it with terrorism. The situation here is rly terrible.
Im glad that in the UK you have a clearer view of salafiyya and dont falsy connected it with extremism like here in germany.
O neo-salafis of today! Do you really think following your reviver Mohammed Ibn Abdul Wahab wil take you to Jannah? Have you forgotten the "Hadith about Najd" ? Read on. If you can "see" with the eyes of your heart and you are not brain dead, then the following is a wakeup call for you to repent from todays "neo Salafism" :
1.
"Narrated Ibn `Umar:
The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "O Allah! Bestow Your blessings on our Sham! O Allah! Bestow Your blessings on our Yemen." The People said, "And also on our Najd." He said, "O Allah! Bestow Your blessings on our Sham (north)! O Allah! Bestow Your blessings on our Yemen." The people said, "O Allah's Apostle! And also on our Najd." I think the third time the Prophet (ﷺ) said, "There (in Najd) is the place of earthquakes and afflictions and from there comes out the side of the head of Satan."" : sunnah.com/bukhari:7094
Now the interesting part here is that the Sahabah who said: "And also on our Najd." were Sahabah from the Najd area of Arabia at that time. Reason is that though many of todays "neo salafis" claim it's najd of Iraq, Iraq was not even Muslim country at that time ,so the Sahabah was from Najd of Arabia. To back this point up you need to look at Hadith about Miqat points for Haj, and it is clearly mentioned that Iraq was not Muslim at that time,so there were no Sahabah from Iraq asking for blessing for their " iraq najd"(as claimed by neo salafis) , but they were asking for blessing for the Najd of Arabia.
Narrated `Abdullah bin Dinar:
Ibn `Umar said, "The Prophet (ﷺ) fixed Qarn as the Miqat (for assuming the Ihram) for the people of Najd, and Al-Juhfa for the people of Sham, and Dhul-Hulaifa for the people of Medina." Ibn `Umar added, "I heard this from the Prophet, and I have been informed that the Prophet (ﷺ) said, 'The Miqat for the Yemenites is Yalamlam.' "When Iraq was mentioned, he said, "At that time it was not a Muslim country." sunnah.com/bukhari:7344
2.
Imam Bukhari even wrote a whole chapter called : "(16)Chapter: “Al-Fitnah will appear from the EAST.” : sunnah.com/bukhari/92
Several Hadith mentions that the fitna will appear from the EAST. Only Najd of Arabia lies to the East of Medina ( Hijaz) :
Narrated Salim's father:
The Prophet (ﷺ) stood up beside the pulpit (and pointed with his finger towards the East) and said, "Afflictions are there! Afflictions are there, from where the side of the head of Satan comes out," or said, "..the side of the sun.."sunnah.com/bukhari:7092
Narrated Ibn `Umar:
I heard Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) while he was facing the East, saying, "Verily! Afflictions are there, from where the side of the head of Satan comes out."
sunnah.com/bukhari:7093
Abu Hurairah narrated that the Messenger of Allah(s.a.w) said:
"Faith is Yemeni, and disbelief is from the direction of the EAST. Tranquility is for the people of sheep, and wickedness and Riya is in those who boast among the people of horses and the people of camels....sunnah.com/tirmidhi:2243
Now tell me who in the EAST boast among the people of horses and the people of camels? People from Najd in arabia!
3. In the first Hadith mentioned above قَرْنُ الشَّيْطَانِ ". " ( QARN-usheitan ) is mentioned. Interestingly Syyedina Mohammed (pbuh) said that Miqat point for Najd in Saudi is QARN :
Narrated Salim bin `Abdullah from his father:
I heard Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) saying, "The Miqat for the people of Medina is Dhul-Hulaifa; for the people of Sham is Mahita; (i.e. Al-Juhfa); and for the people of Najd is QARN. And said Ibn `Umar, "They claim, but I did not hear personally, that the Prophet (ﷺ) said, "The Miqat for the people of Yemen is Yalamlam."
sunnah.com/bukhari:1528
4. Now look at this google map. Najd of Saud lies to EAST of Madinah, and Iraq is NORTH-EAST : aalequtub.files.wordpress.com/2019/12/13912697_1218930288140440_5976180288688380779_n.jpg
Conclusion: The Hadith of Najd speaks about najd of Arabia and none other najd anywhere else.So anyone who wants to save their akhirah,should repent from wahabism and come over to Sufism and join true Ahlus Sunnah Wal Jamah aqeedah: www.ahlus-sunna.com
Sahih Bukhari:
Prophet peace and blessings be upon him
"I have loved the people of the tribe of Banu Tamim, ever since I heard three things the Messenger of Allaah , sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam, said about them. I heard him saying, 'these people (of the tribe of Banu Tamim) would stand firm against the Dajjaal.' When the Saddaqat from that tribe came, the Messenger of Allaah , sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam, said, "these are the Saddaqat (charitable gifts) of our folk." Aa'ishah had a slave girl from that tribe, and the Prophet , sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam, said to Aa'ishah, 'manumit her as she is a descendant of Ismaa'eel, alayhis salaam.'"
ahadith 2543 and 4366 of al-Fath
Also from Musnad Ahmad ibn Hanbal:
"do not say of Bani Tameem anything but good, for indeed they are the severest of people in attacking the Dajjaal."
Banu Tamim are the majority of people of the so-called Najd (Saudi Arabia). To label Najd as that area of Saudi Arabia would be in contradiction of the many hadeeth relating to Bani Tameem especially those in which they fight the Dajjal, who comes from the Najd that is to the East.

You've chosen a very good brother to ask about this. Shaykh Hasan is very well learned and have been teaching here in Philadelphia for a very long time masha Allah.

Because you agree with terrorism

It's scary that many people believe it's halal to call upon the prophet saw for help. The prophet saw is dead, he cannot help you in your daily affairs or in the hereafter only Allah the ever living can. There should be no room for discussion
Do you have proof for what you are saying?
@@saracentiano I think the burden of proof is on you. If you seriously believe after reading the Qur'an that calling upon other than Allah is totally fine with all due respect you are intellectually dishonest

@@saracentiano “Such is Allaah, your Lord; His is the kingdom. And those, whom you invoke or call upon instead of Him, own not even a Qitmeer (the thin membrane over the date stone).
If you invoke (or call upon) them, they hear not your call; and if (in case) they were to hear, they could not grant it (your request) to you. And on the Day of Resurrection, they will disown your worshipping them. And none can inform you (O Muhammad) like Him Who is the All-Knower (of everything)”

@@soufyan454 It was narrated from ‘Uthman bin Hunaif that a blind man came to the Prophet (Peace be upon him) and said: “Pray to Allah to heal me.” He said: “If you wish to store your reward for the Hereafter, that is better, or if you wish, I will supplicate for you.” He said: “Supplicate.” So he told him to perform ablution and do it well, to pray two Rak’ah, and to say this supplication: “Allahumma lnni as’aluka wa atawajjahu ilaika bimuhammadin nabiyyir-rahma. Ya Muhammadu inni qad tawajjahtu bika ila rabbi fi hajati hadhihi lituqda.

O Muhammad, I have turned to my Lord by virtue of your intercession (waseela) concerning this need of mine so that it may be met. O Allah, accept his intercession concerning me)”.This hadith was recorded and authenticated by several traditional scolars, the following all classified it rigorously authentic (sahih): Imam Ibn Majah in his al-Sunan; Imam Nasai in his ‘Amal al-Yaum wa al-Lailah; Imam Hakim in his al-Mustadrak, Imam Baihaqi in Dala’il al-Nubuwwa; Imam Mundhiri in al-Targhib wa al-tahrib; Imam Haythami in Majma’ al zawa’id wa manba’ al-fawa’id; Imam Tibrani in his al-Mu‘jam al-Kabir.
The narration is also recorded by Imam Bukhari in his al-Tàrikh al-Kabir, Imam Tirmidhi in his Sunan, Imam Ahmad in his al-Musnad, Imam Abu Nu’aym in Marifa al-Sahaba and Imam ibn Khuzaima in his Kitab al-Sahih.
It is proved from the above hadith that it is permissible to say ‘Ya Muhammad’ and it is also permissible to make supplication to Allah with the wasila of the Prophet (may Allah bless him and grant him peace)
Great discussion, God bless both of you brothers . Shaykh Hassan has been doing great work in Philadelphia, hundreds of new converts, and he along with the brothers at George Town masjid have invested into their local neighborhood and taking a lead in providing value to their communities. The purchased abounded building and have opened halal business, teaching programs, etc. an updated interview would be great for the viewers to see the positive changes Islam has made to that community.
A very educated and respectable guest, wonderful conversation!
A very informative interview regarding the meaning of the term “salafi” and it’s significance in repelling the notion that Islam is a barbaric and backwards faith. Learnt alot quite frankly.
That's a statement of disbelief to belittle Islam. Why do you have Qur'an recitation and a thobe?
@@mrafiuddin
Look
www.salafis.com/articles/sswicax-shaykh-al-albaanee-on-the-doubt-allaah-has-named-us-muslims-so-why-use-the-label-salafi.cfm
Learn about the barabaric acts then of the salafis after ibn Abdul wahab and how in their own books they make takfir on people.
@Adem then why did he make takfir of people in his own books. Not only that made chain takfir. If you read Arabic go read his books.
@Fisabilillah فِي سَبِيلِ ٱللَّٰهِ brother your getting Thai from forums. Please be neutral. Look at the massacres and actually buy the books and read them. If you can’t buy the books and can’t read them, then please read the history carefully without being one sided. I use to be a wahabi alhumdullah I stopped making takfir and calling others people of innovation once I saw him for what he truly was. But kitab at tawhid is a beneficial book no doubt but the movement isn’t and the massacres were disgusting.
Prophet said , if you make takfir on someone one of you is a kafir.
Stop misquoting and picking and choosing. This isn’t the place for argument and long discussions. Just read up on history and the movement. Bismillah.
Salam all .
Thank you bro Paul. Both of you have touched almost all angle about salafiyyah. Very much beneficial for people to learn from.
@@mrafiuddin Why does that matter to you or us? The important thing to ask is are we following the way of the salaf? We can't judge people but we can judge ourselves.
@@mrafiuddin Salafism emerged from Hanbalism, you're correct.
Hanbalis were largly sectarian and psycho-extremists who persecuted and killed anyone who disagreed with them. Just look at the gruesome way they killed Sheikh Al Moufassereen Ibn Jarir Al-Tabari, for saying that he doesn't consider Ahmed Ibn Hanbal to have a unique Madh'aab/school of Sunni jurisprudence, but considers him to be a Moh'adet/hadith traditionist only.
@@wide_eyed_corpsebride how ignorant is this, Imam Ibn Hanbal was persecuted by the Mutazilah for preserving the Quran and beleif in Allah's attributes, they were persecuted not the other way around! Imam Ashari also followed him in end! and its his school that preserved the hadiths as he was Bukaris teachers, you are clearly very ignorant person!
@@falsesectslikeshiaarejudeo6543 Ibn Hanbal was persecuted, sure, no sane person denies that. But his followers turned out to be persecuters in their own right. They shamelessly killed Al-Tabari, a person with great 'Ilm and one of the great Mufassereen of the Qur'an, they besieged his house and refused to even let people give him a proper Janaza and burial worthy of his contributions and status. From their sect, we saw the genesis of the Takfiris and the sectarians and the current Jihadi Salafis who cheapen the blood of Muslims and kill anyone who mildly disagrees with them.

Use this emojis brother paul🤲.. Not this 🙏. May allah protect u and us.
Subhana Rabbi al A'laa. Surely, the conveyance of knowledge with wisdom is worship. I feel we were blessed by being the audience.
I would like to thank you for organizing such a great talk. I always wanted to communicate the true meaning of the Salafi path as I myself found it as the most authentic way to the true Islam, but I am usually confronted with a huge bias that leaves no open room for an educational discussion. This problem is present even among Arabic Muslims. However, Shaykh Hasan and you managed to communicate in a proper and open way that was actually so beneficial for me as well. I actually thank you for bringing someone like Sheykh Hassan (whom I actually did not know before this video) to explain the proper position of Muslims and in particular when it comes to the Salafi path.
People either in the west or even in the Arabic/Muslim communities might confuse Salafi (as a path that calls to follow the first generations of Islam) with the terrorist groups (who are the enemies of everybody) due to biased views from media or wherever.
My point here is that names by the end of the day are just names. We have to look at facts and actions. For example, Abdullah Ibn Salool was the head of Monafeqon (a group of people who are apparently believers "Muslims" but are actually disbelievers) at the time of the prophet peace be upon him. Then Allah has revealed to his prophet in Quraan a full verse called Al-Munafiqun that Allah knows about them and they are at the deepest point in the Hellfire even below the disbelievers. These groups neither benefited from calling themselves Muslims nor represented in any way what it means to be a Muslim. There are several other examples from Quraan and Sunnah and this is one of them.
Well said!
Thanks!
Just for futue consideration:
There are many people talking none sense about the true Islam and/or the Salafi path as with many other topics. Therefore, it is not easy to know to whom someone can talk to.
But I really felt that you are only interested to get as much as unbiased view as possible. This is also my path actually and that is why I found your channel very useful and impactful.
So just keep going. We have a lot to share and it will be interesting to see more content from you especially when it comes to orthodox Christianity and orthodox Islam.
I would really like to ask you to have another talk with Sheykh Hassan to clarify more about:
1. Authentic Islam message (which is mainly to worship God only and not just to believe in God) that was carried by all prophets and their honest followers. This by itself can be a series of discussions.
2. (if possible) the cults in Islam, why their claims are dismissed by Quraan and Sunah and why they still exist.

A man said, ‘Will it be because we will be few at that time, Oh Messenger of Allah?’. He responded, ‘No, you will be numerous in those times, but you will be like the scum of the sea, and Allah will remove your fear from the hearts of your enemies, and He will place al-Wahn in your hearts’, It was asked, ‘What is al-Wahn?’, he responded, “Love of the Dunya, and hatred of death”

Great video. Sheikh Hassan somali explained everything clearly for muslims and for non muslims to understand!
And the evidence from the texts of the Qur’an and the authentic hadith.
But fanatics will not like it. Doctrinal fanaticism is like religious fanaticism and may lead to fire if you violate the doctrine of the Prophet Muhammad
I wish you could’ve talked more about the history part around what Muhammad Abdul Wahhab movement did in Arabia and how the Saudi Monarchy was born.
Why would they talk about that akhi? If they talk that Muhammad ibn Abdul Wahab would be exposed.
And what of that part? My ancestors have fought severely against Muhammed AbdulWahab and the family of Al Suud, but now I'm a practicing Muslim who adheres to the Salafi doctrine the one who AbdulWahab preaches because it is based on the only reliable religious sources of Islam: Quran & Sunnah which are liberating and illuminating not as other sects that promote slavery through idolatry rituals such as worshipping tombs and constructing fancy shrines to be visited as pilgrimages and idolising clerks who utter myths and fairy tales that are not a bit sensible and robbing their followers of thier money.

Thank Paul and Shikh AsSomali for the informative discussion.

Thanks to AsSomali's comment, I took my time reviewing Borda'at Albosair,i together with my husband who is very critical towards most of the Sufi sayings and practices, looking for kofri expression within it. we could not find any.
Borda is a great poem that is full of love and appreciation of the prophet (pbuh) while stating at multiple occasions that he is a man and denying what Christians claim about Jesus.
I find it really disturbing when Muslims start to accuse fellow Muslims with Kofor as this is against the teachings of the prophet (pbuh) who was absolutely inclusive. Moreover, divisions weaken the Umah and probably serve the never old imperialist agenda.

I think that the most profound testament to the truth of Islam is the fact that no single individual/group can have the last word. As the Quran says, "You shall resort to pardoning and advocate recognition" 7:199. Ultimately we were created as individuals and God will judge us as individuals. No one's perspective on these things is "all-encompassing", save that of God.
Mr. Williams, since you have given this man a platform on your channel, then perhaps you should allow for someone to come on and counter some of the whitewashed rhetoric that has been expressed here, someone who will show Salafiyyah as a splinter movement within Islam. It is not representative of mainstream Sunni Islam, and the particular brand of Salafism that the speaker here follows-Madkhalism (or the Madakhilah)-is a splinter group within a splinter group. Maybe the two people whom he mentioned by name, Shaykh Hamza Yusuf and Shaykh Yasir Qadhi, could come on here and do it.
One of the biggest misappropriations exhibited here that the Salafiyyah (which is Wahhabiyyah renamed) promote is this understanding that the idol-worshipping Arabs during the time of the Prophet صلى الله عليه و سلم and the "polytheists" during the time of MIAW (Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab) were the same. This is probably the biggest myth that has been pushed as a narrative that Wahhabis have used as a pretext to kill Muslims whom they have branded as polytheists (mushriks), either by way of misunderstandings of some of the practices of the Muslims of that time (and prior), or a deliberate quest for power and control of the sacred precincts of Makkah and Madinah. An objective study of the Wahhabi movement will reveal both, and it had nothing with establishing "pure tawhid", like what you will find in many of the glossy books of the Wahhabis as being the reason for the slaughter of people who have said 'laa ilaha illallah'. This is the biggest distortion of the Wahhabi movement, making Muslims into mushriks on misunderstandings and technicalities, and it is a foundation for the movement.

We want Abdel Hakim Murad being invited and describing what is "Traditionnal Sunni islam"
@Georgy Porgy what exactly was new about the teaching of Muhammed bin Abdul wahhab? Was his practice contrary to that of the teachings of Islam?
abdel hakim murad is an extreme sufi...
Abdal Hakim Murad is an inheritor of what we today call Traditionnal islam. Traditionnal islam is "Sunni islam before Salafism" appeared some 2 centuries ago. Almost 95% or more of Sunni scholars in history, from Imam Nawawi to Ibn Hajar Al Asqalani, share it's main views which are:
1)The Aqida of the salaf formulated with a rational terminology by Imam Ashari and Imam Maturidi to counter the rationalist heresy of the Mu'tazila or the Aqida of the salad in it's original form (Athari). (The athari almost disappeared over time not because they weren't recognize but because many anthropomorphist interpretation came from some the fake scholars among them which made the Ashari and Maturidi more popular amongst scholars to avoid innovations in Aqeeda.)
2)The following of one of the four school of law, recognizing that their differences are all authentic way of understanding the aspects of the religion that are not definitive (The waiting time for a widow to remarry for example is not definitive as the word use in the Qu'ran can have many meanings in Arabic language)
3) Following the path of purification of the heart from the salaf laid down by Imam Al Junayd and his students which was know as tassawuf. (Sufism).
Interestingly, Salafis generally call Traditionnal islam "Extreme sufism" which means that without realizing, Salafism consider almost all scholars of Sunni islam in history as extreme sufis...Why? Because all those scholars use to recognize sufism as an essential part of islam and all almost of them use to consider the question of intercession (Asking Allah through the Baraka of someone who's past away) as part of the understanding.
The accusation of Traditionnal islam against Salafism is that:
1)Their considering of Intercession (To ask Allah through the Baraka of someone who past away) as Shirk is contrary to all previous Sunni Scholars and creates the biggest division Sunni islam ever witnessed in it's history.
2) Their discouraging of following Traditionnal schools of law open the doors of all unqualified scholars to formulated inauthentic opinions which open the doors for big innovations in the law. The fact that all terrorist groups are from the salafis and that none of them are from Traditionnal islam is for them one of the greatest proof.
3)Their rejection of mainstream sufism made them presenting an islam which is know form it's dryness and which affect the dawaah in a very bad way. The fact that in the past, muslims were recognize in the whole world as masters of spirituality to the current image of islam being a religion who's focus is on ritual and rules is clearly linked with the propagation of salafism according to them.

www.abukhadeejah.com/categories/what-is-salafism-our-call-dawah/
To be a Salafi means adhering to the Creed, Methodology and the way of life of the Salaf As-Sālih (the Pious Predecessors). The earliest of the Salaf was the generation of our Prophet (صلى الله عليه وسلم) and his Companions. Then after them came the virtuous three generations of believers who held fast to the Sunnah (Path) of the Prophet and his Companions. The person who understands this path correctly, follows it exactly, without introducing anything into it and nor deviating from it is a Salafi. To be a Salafi is not merely to imagine that one is upon the true path of the Salaf, but Salafism is to study the religion of the Companions and follow it - it was they who understood best the meanings and intent of the speech and actions of the Prophet (صلى الله عليه وسلم).
The Prophet warned against deviated people at his time, likewise the companions and their students, and the scholars after them. If someone deviates then it's upon us to call that out and not be silent. This is from preserving the purity of Islam
@@mrb7935 The Prophet also warned against making excessive Takfir.
@@maquacr7014 to be precise, the prophet warned from making takfeer of someone unjustly. But the prophet and Allah made takfeer of those who committed actions that took them out of Islam. The sahaaba that mocked the deen, Allah said "give no excuses, you have disbelieved after your belief"
Read the works of Muhammed bin Abdul wahhab, what he says is based on knowledge. Allah said and the prophet said. We have to be just akhi, may Allah bless you
Thanks Mr. Williams. I conclude that, Don't abandon our good habits as a nation when we have converted to Islam, don't forget to lose the characteristics of our nation, keep doing that habit as long as it's not shirk.

@Blogging Theology Do you know the work of the revert Haneef Oliver named "The Wahhabi Myth" ?
Yes. I have read it.
Khawarij also used to claim what Salafis claimed but in the end, actions speak louder than words they do everything similar to Khawarij and not the salaf.
oh? what is similar between the khawarij and the salafi? The salafi follow the Qur'an and Sunnah according to the understanding of the Comapnions (May Allah be pleased with them). As for Rebellion (khurooj), it is defined as attempting to snatch away authority from the ruler, opposing him publicly, attempting to force him out of office, inciting the people against him (through demonstrations, rallies, public protests, strikes, etc), plotting against him and rising up to challenge him with writings, sermonising or the sword.
Muslim reported in his Sahīh (1847) from Wā’il Ibn Hujr that: Salamah Ibn Yazeed Al-Ju’fee asked Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ): “O Prophet of Allah, what do we do if we have rulers over us who demand their rights yet they withhold our rights?” He replied: “Listen to them and obey them [regardless]. Upon them is their burden and on you will be your burden.”
Obedience to the ruler, whether he is righteous, pious, sinful or tyrannical is an obligation. Muslim reported in his Sahīh (1836) from Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (ﷺ) said:
“You are obligated to listen to the ruler and obey him in times of ease and in times of hardship, whether you are pleased or displeased and even when another person is given preference over you (while you were more deserving).”

@@mrb7935 Khawarij were also claiming to follow the pure Religion that Allah sent down to his prophet the one according to them the khulafaa left. That is where the parallel starts. The khawarij defined Iman and shirk so narrowly that even blessed Khulafaa fell into it as the Salafis do today. They do it at the time when Muslims would suffer from it the most.
@@mkc3177 like I said already, the khawaarij have left off the understanding of the salaf, so they aren't following the exact deen Allah sent down since Allah sent it down with an understanding to follow also, and that was taught to the sahaaba by the prophet
When ibn Abbas debated them, the first thing he said is "I see none of us amongst you", meaning the sahaaba. So they left off the inheritors of the prophet, and the prophets bequeath knowledge
So, I'm not too sure what point you're trying to get at, but if you actually read the works of Muhammed bin Abdul wahhab and not propaganda about him, you'd see that his works consist of evidences and quotes from the salaf. Read kitaab at-tawheed and tell me where he gives his opinion. It's filled with evidences and quotes from the salaf
May Allah forgive you
@ali to say that we dont have a muslim rulers atm is such ignorance either ur one of the khawarij or ignorant indivisual who needs to be taught in islam u cant accuse muslim of takfir without clear cut prove especially with rulers as the messenger of Allah peace be upon him mention until u see clear cut disbelief…

Abdul Hakim Murad is an extreme Sufi, caller to innovation! Why would any person who cares about his religion even waste a second listening to him!
how can you discuss islam with a Christian..obvious you won't get the correct beliefs..stop being ignorant..for you to learn salafiyah you have to learn from salafi scholars
And Sheikh Abdul Rahman Al-Dimashqiah to talk about Sufism
I find very odd that brother Hassan Somali says we don't make takfir on Muslims and at the same time he is criticising Sheikh Hamza Yusuf to be sufi Mushrik but when you challenge this Salafi Madkhalis cult about their double stander they will deny, they alwasys gaslighting and full of self administration.

Calling for help from anyone other then Allah is a sign of weak iman
As for anything besides these types of tawassul, then there is disagreement
about it, and what we believe firmly and hold as our religion before Allaah, the
Most High, is that other ways are not permissible, and not prescribed. This is
because there is no acceptable proof for them, and these things have been spo-
ken against by the verifying scholars in successive centuries of Islamic history.
Even though some of them have been allowed by some of the scholars, so [for
instance] Imaam Ahmad allowed tawassul by means of the Messenger
( ) alone, and others such as Imaam ash-Shawkaanee allowed tawassul by
means of him and other Prophets and the Pious. However we, as is the case in
all matters where there is disagreement, follow whatever is supported by the
proof whatever that is, without blindly sticking to the opinions of men. We
do not align ourselves except with the truth. So with regard to the question of
tawassul, which we are presently discussing, then we see that the truth is with
those who warn against tawassul by means of any created being, and we warn
against tawassul by means of any created being. Indeed they cannot find
anything to support what they hold except doubts which they raise and
possibilities

It was narrated from Mu’aawiyah ibn Abi Sufyaan (may Allaah be pleased with him) that he said: The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) stood among us and said: “Those who came before you of the people of the Book split into seventy-two sects, and this ummah will split into seventy-three: seventy-two in Hell and one in Paradise, and that is the jamaa’ah (main body of Muslims).”
The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) also described them in the following terms: “My ummah will split into seventy-three sects, all of whom will be in Hell except one group.” They said: Who are they, O Messenger of Allaah? He said: “(Those who follow) that which I and my companions follow.” This is mentioned in the hadeeth of ‘Abd-Allaah ibn ‘Amr which was recorded and classed as hasan by al-Tirmidhi (2641). It was also classed as hasan by al-‘Iraaqi in Ahkaam al-Qur’aan (3/432), al-‘Iraaqi in Takhreej al-Ihya’ (3/284) and al-Albaani in Saheeh al-Tirmidhi.

I think it's easier for a Muslim who reverted to Islam to identify that Salafiyah is the truth cause it makes perfect sense to follow the religion how the Prophet Peace and Blessings be upon him conveyed it and the people who understood it the best are his companions. Salafiyah is pure Islam with nothing added and nothing taken away. It's either you follow it correctly or you follow your desires. If you are a truthful and just person you won't argue with what Allaah commanded and what the Messenger peace and blessings be upon him brought, taught and warned against.
That is because new converts are unaware of their deceptions. They sound very good with their claims following sunnah and in reality, they are just takfiris ready to unleash their favourite weapon of takfir. When it will do the most harm to the ummah.

Core deviations that occurs among muslims is related to orthodoxy and is of prime concern. Although in Islam, orthodoxy and orthopraxy aren't so distinct due to the concepts like 'practice defines or affects belief'. Not talking about jurisprudential differences which are of secondary importance, but real sects among claimed sunnis like Asharis, Maturidhis, Mu'tazalites, Khawarij, Qadarees is based on orthodoxy.
@@dawoodbanday6267 primacy of Quran and sunnah is well established among all Muslims. The ideological differences by different schools deals with secondary qualities related to Divine Nature
No it's not.
It's complete opposite. Orthopraxy, refers to practice, and almost all Muslims accept the legitimacy of each others schools (madhabs) and the opinions and practices thereof.
However, the difference is in orthodoxy, which refers to beliefs. Of course, the core beliefs of Sunnis for example are the same, but in some foundational, and later branch issues, Muslims begin to divide into branches and branches, coupled with the influence of various beliefs as a result of Muslims engaging in philosophy.
It is only the difference between concerning beliefs - that division occurs, in terms of misguidance, innovation (Bid'ah) and disbelief (Kufr). Beliefs are in general more central to religion, than practice. The practice build upon the beliefs.
The Salafi concern is precisely about orthodoxy, and having the correct beliefs with regard to the understand of the Salaf (first three generation), and mostly is about having the correct approach to interpretation which is literal (Athari), and following the companions and those who come after with regard to the other branch issues.
In the modern era, because of the political climate, Muslims have developed this kind of collectivism in the fact of a dominant civilization, and as such the focus on theological differences has declined, and a focus on unity has increased. Therefore, the only central issue discussed between Muslims mainly today, remains orthopraxy issues of the Sharia.
But the more fundamental issues occurring among Muslims is beliefs. Beliefs and interpretations are at the center of difference the non-violent majority and the notorious jihadists for example. The Salafi concern is an orthodoxy concern, and they uphold the importance of this, and the most fundamental of all beliefs - Tawhid.
@@nuux1560 bidah is a false accusation and frequently used to attach folks one does not agree with. This narrative was developed by wahabis when they were rebelling against turks. Their anglican protestant masters were pushing this ideleogy to justify rebellion against ottomans. Anglicans, who knew all too well how to destroy and attack catholicism guided wahabis to use the word bidah to their advantage. These right wing khargites have shedding sacred Muslim blood time and again. Bidah is never supported by any sunni school in fact all sunni Muslims have been fighting to protect Sunnah by their dear lives. It is totally counter productive to waste time and effort on acts of unproven and unapproved religious beliefs and practices no sunni school has endorsed or approved any bidah. This charge is false and slanderous
@@najamulghanikhan I will teach you some facts that you do not know:
First: The Islamic caliphate is a right of Quraysh only with the texts of the hadiths of the Prophet Muhammad.. The Turks violated the texts of the hadith and took away the right of Quraysh to the caliphate, starting with the Turkic Mamluks who were slaves of the Arabs, marginalizing the Abbasid caliphate and ending with the Ottoman Empire’s invasion of the Arab countries and the fall of the Mamluk state.
Second: The Turks have their geographical borders in Central Asia, and they have no right to the presence of the Turkish military in the Arab countries
Third: The dispute between the first Saudi state and the Ottoman Empire regarding monotheism first, and the historical error in the presence of Turkish soldiers in the Arabian Peninsula
Fourth: The first Saudi state expelled the Turks and the English did not have a presence in the Arab countries.. Then the Great Arab Revolt led by Hussein, the grandson of the Prophet Muhammad, for the same reason expelled the Turks.
The land of the Arabs shakes off the polytheists who worship the shrines.
The land of the Arabs will shake off every person who insults his masters, the Quraysh, the descendants of the Prophet Muhammad. These caliphs only.
Brother Paul, I hope Inshallah you can have a discussion with Sheikh Yasir Qadhi regarding some of his views of "The Salafi Movement" since he moved away from those movement but still adopted "Athari Creed".
Shaikh? What ?? This guy says praying to the grave is not shirk..and you call him Shaikh... He is a nobody
He is not upon the athari creed. He is an innovator!
@@ziasmailbox are you aware He just stated some scholars of the past opinon about those issue ?. And who are you ?, are you have a qualifications for criticized a scholar who studied with some great alim. And yes I regards him as a Sheikh even I not agreed with some of his views.
@@Salafiyahisthehaqq becareful to not spread a fitnah brother. Try to clarify with him for what you said .
@@ersand2870 do you know that yessir Qadhis teachers made tabdi’ on him.
It’s not our fault if you don’t know, don’t blame people that know about him because you don’t know!
Yessir Qadhi is a innovator! May Allah guide him or stop him talking. Aameen
Yasir qadhi also studied in madina. Even met some of the great sheikhs of the school. He was a hardcore salafi and now he changed his views and came back to ahlul sunnah understanding. Would like a chat with him like how u did with this brother here. In sha Allah
Qadi is modernist, trying to reform the religion to fit the western norms. He’s as bad as he was as a salafi
@@artarak497 true that, Qadhi wants to appeal to western white supremacy
@@artarak497 so he cant be invited?
@@boredalchemist what?
@@boredalchemist Nope. I disagree with you. Why don't you watch Shaykh YQ videos from his library chats. See for yourself. Unless you have proof you should not state such statements.
Brother Paul: People's comments that show the truth of Salafies been removed from the chat. That is very bad and giving us serious massage !!
what's the truth about salafiyah
Do you know Salafism more than its people?
If you have a question, ask and we will answer you. There are no secrets in Islam
الحمد لله
عندنا الشيخ حسن الصومالي حفظه الله تعالى
Paul - you have spoken with a man who is upon The Truth - the way of the Companions.
One of the best , good to see a Muslim perspective. Alhamdullilah, I also like to watch Shamsi ( our African Lion) and all the men that help spread Islam. May Allah always guide you all.. Ameen
I follow the Qur'an and Sunnah and they way of the Salaf, keep it pure 👆
Right . To me the Salafiyya make the Deen very complex and all they do is Islam in the walls of the masjid . It is to me unnecessary to refer to one as Salafiyya . The correct term of those who follow the Quran and Sunnah is Ahl us Sunnah wal jama'at ! However , the Salafi claim that they have the best understanding and practice of the Deen is nonsense . In my experience living among them they are the worst Muslims . 8n fact Germantown masjid where this brother leads is known for fitnah and deviance ! Allah named us Muslims and the Deen Al Islam not Salafiyya .
Alhamdulilah for the Quran and the sunnah
There are some ridiculous attitudes that show up in these comments sections showing how lost some who call themselves Muslims are, but show how out of touch with the reality of life they really are.
One of these lost states is regarding the argument about where Allah is?
To be above something, also means you are greater than it.
That your position is a higher one means you are above and beyond what is being said or understood about who you are.
Language itself acts as a gauge of our capacity to express the greater reality of life more clearly.
Or for those that allow myths and hypocracy to get in the way, its lack of clarity is there to confuse them.
When people talk non-sense it is very easy to see they have not grasped hold of the correct context of the words they are using to de-scribe reality.
The actual word, understand in english is made up of two seperate words under and stand.
Being under something, means we look up at it or to it, or in a spiritual context we put the idea we believe in at a higher place above us (we hold it as a having a higher value in our lives).
To stand for something, means we hold onto a value making sure no matter what happens to us, we hold firm standing by what we believe is true, even to our death.
True under-standing is actually inferring these qualities become the action we implement, in our beliefs that we stand for in life. This concept of under-standing takes its meaning to a much higher level, which is the same principle that the word Islam in Arabic refers to.
A person is not being true to what they know if they do not hold their principles to above all other things, always staying below sub- missive to these higher values. Standing up to protect them with our lives. This is jihad.
An example if this is to know the true principle of what Halel means: blessed by Allah, to know all life has been blessed by Allah, then not re-spect it, to mistreat His Creation is hypocracy. Or just to think we can mumble the words Bismilallah.
And that makes it ok to abuse Allah's Creation
To say one thing then do the other, only makes us hypocrites, not servents doing Allah's Will on earth.
Sadly in today's modern world where a person's word mean nothing, even those who call themselves Muslim are doing so only in word not in their actions, which are still tied to the dunyah.
This understanding of Islam is theoretical only, it is not a lifestyle and the actual mentality towards life being followed is still fully westernised.
These actions, which have nothing to do with the truth of Islam or its correct values, or to stand up for what is true that we as true Muslims should have kept high above us.
These types of self centred attitudes do not hold the right value of life or where it comes from in our beliefs in the correct place.
As fake muslins we might continue a few Islamic traditions in our lives that we think are required of us, like praying 5 times a day or not eat during Ramadan.
But the great path and higher truth of Islam is not in our hearts, the dunnah is.
That's all we care about, and as Our beloved Prophet said, "those who think this way have already received their full reward in this life".
It's a bit disappointing to notice some comments being deleted in these open chat.
I speak from direct experience, where members of fanatic groups actually wanted to cut my head off, for standing up to them in person and upsetting them, because they tried to force their one eyed views onto me and I refused to accept such a one eyed views of Islam that can aldo be seen by many who make comments in here.
Those who threatened to attack me, might not have been the Salafi's you might know, but that's what they also called themselves.
Brother Paul, to be neutral, please interview Hamza Yusuf and Yasir Qadhi also.
Agreed
Why ask a sufi about what Salafis believe?!
That makes no sense what so ever. And the ironic thing is that you call this neutral. Lol That's more of a sufi bias.
Be sincere bro!
Allowing callers to falsehood is not being neutral but rather being biased to falsehood and desires. It's only people of Tawheed who need to be promoted.
Brother Paul will like to know why Yasir Qadhi left Salafi sect and also from Sheikh Hamzah, why the Salafi accused them of shirik
This guy is Wahabi influenced.
Should have asked him about shaikh Salaman AL Auda and why he's in prison. Add by asking him opinion about the immorality that is taking place in the holy land and how these mighty scholars haven't even made a peep. We know they can't but I wonder what brother Hasan will say.
@@mrafiuddin You think we should ask if the brother thinks Madkalis are Salafies?
For those still blaming selefia, lie or distort, the evidence has been brought to you and u will have no excuses on the day of judgement.
That being said, excellent coverage and good questions from Paul, besides that I must say as a selefie that I didn't expect Paul to know the basics and make good analogies on selefia, wollahi this is from the guidance of Allah. May Allah shower us with his mercy and put sincerity in our hearts, ameen.
@Real Authentic D I don't know Allahoe e3lem, do you perhaps now ?
@Real Authentic D I found a video of him explaining why he left christianity and became muslim, so elhamdolileh he's muslim.
And salafis hate all other groups of Sunni Islam
Criticizing Hanfis on Qiyaas and Maturidhi Kalam which they attribute to Jahmites.
Criticizing Orthodox Hanabilah on Tafwid Al M'ana and many issues of Fiqh which they call innovations'.
Criticizing Malikis and Shafiis for their Ashari Creed which they as wrll attribute to Jahmite.
Meaning making almost all of the Muslims as crpto mushriks.
Anyways would like to see Sh Asrar Rashid on your Channel sir...
