SubhanAllah, I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw the name! It immediately stirred up so many memories. It was 27 years ago that I became Muslim. I was living in Oregon and trying to learn Islam on my own through books and the internet (which was much different than it is now). Alhamdulilah, a brother which I met over the internet, sent me a few tapes by Dawud Adib. I listened to them 100's of times. It was through him that I was introduced to dawatus Salafiyah. I didn't know anything at the time about all the drama that was associated with the "movement", I just knew the Islam he was talking about resonated with me and made sense. A lot more sense than some of the Islamic books I had been getting from the library or other things I had seen on the internet. May Allah reward the Brother. He impacted a lot of lives, more than he probably knows! It was a treat to see this well done interview!
I am Egyptian. I was this close to atheism and Hizbiyyah when Allah introduced me to Abu Aaliyah Battle, who introduced me to Shaykh Dawud Adib. I am indebted to both of them for who I am today - by the grace of Allah and after his mercy and فضل. I was a misguided Arab, and Allah guided me on the hands of Muslim Americans who were influenced by Malcom X rahimahu-Allah! سبحان الله. I love Shaykh Dawud for the sake of Allah, and I ask Allah to reward him and raise his rank.
Mashallah, so good to hear from Sheikh Dawud Adib. I first met him at the East Orange Masjid. After Jumah the Masjid sold dinners. So one day I'm drinking a soda with my left hand while holding my plate with my right hand, so Dawud told me to drink with my right, I said my plate is in my right, he said put your plate in your left then drink with your right. To this day a appreciate that correction so much. Also i had a little pamphlet that some Christian organization was putting out directed to the Muslims which i gave to Dawud and he did a wonderful kutbah on that pamphlet. Also to this day I still have a cassette where he gave a kutbah on Defense in Islam. I was in Egypt from 2015 -17 and some of the brothers were saying that Dawud Adib was in Al Rehab and were going to see him. I'm not sure if he was actually there, i didn't go. So my thanks to Dawud Adib for being such a part of my journey in Islam.
Salaam alaikum rahmahtullah this was a very good interview may Allaah reward you!!!....i didn't Throw any of my tapes away you were a becon light for a lot of us may Allaah bless you.

I apologise for myself and on behalf of my friend for bothering you with question that evening because you were clearly tired.

Al hamdulilah I learned Salafi from Ustadh Dawud Adib in the 90s in Newark and East Orange Islamic center on Lincoln st. May Allah preserve and Increase him. Amiin!
Allaahumma Baarak Alayh, Shaykh has helped me in the 90’s to leave Sufism all the way and explained to me about using certain terminology which is not from the correct Methodology. WalHamdulillaah Allaah allowed him to be part of our growth and development for us to ascribe to As-Salaafiyah taking the time to teach us the basics and some Biidhnillaah. I was at a point after hearing some of the lectures and talks that my “Shahadah” was not valid since I was part of that “letter” cult, (F.O.I., M.G.T., G.C.C. etc) and then the Sufi Cult and the way I came to say the Shahadah back in the 70’s, and then in the Sufi Cult we said the Shahadah a certain way… after asking our Brother, Shaykh Abu Tasneem hafidhahullaah about my concern, he immediately told to say the affirmation (Shahadahtayn) and afterwards he said “you’re Muslim now” … back in 1999….Time went by fast Allaahul Musta’aan! May Allaah ArRaheem keep us firm and allow us enter our graves upon righteousness so that we are able to answer the Questions correctly since He Ta’Alaa is The Only One Who can, Allaahumma Aameen!

It is interesting that you mentioned the connection between Imam Warith Deen Muhammad and the Ahmadiyyah teachings because I learned, after serious, intense study that Drew Ali, W.D.

But I am also glad you cleared up the fact that some of Imam Warith D. Muhammad's followers today have come around to the proper understanding of Islam. It is also interesting that he said, at 1:19:29 that his "Islam did not come from Madina but from America" because when Imam Abu Muslimah said something similar, he was boycotted and considered a deviant (including yourself), though he was just as much on the Salafi daw'ah as anyone else! And he apologized as well but his opponents refused to accept his apology or listen to what he said to clarify the matter! As Allah says we should be harsh on the Unbelievers and compassionate on the Believers! Too often, we do the exact opposite and I seek refuge from those who blindly following the people of error and from "be divided among ouselves" (even amongst those who claim to be upon the same daw'ah)! I remember your work in the prisons upstate New York way back when and I must applaud you, however, for apologizing and I read your book "Letter to My Christian Parents" and you appear to have really grown and sincerely left behind a lot of the negativity some of our Brothers on this min'haj have associated themselves with that has given the Salafi daw'ah a bad taste in a lot of people's mouth! Which is a shame because the Truth deserves a listen and the oppportunity to correct our misconceptions about the deen!
@1:04:20 May Allah preserve and protect our shaykh(elder) n keep him firm upon the truth. This statement here and Allah knows best is gonna make some ppl very upset. So be prepared for the pdfs videos rumors n every other form of attacks u can think of to start rolling out. No matter what one thinks abt this person or that person know!!! That the truth is bitter. May Allah join the hearts of the muslims together upon the truth
To make a long word short: a lot of people are using the tem "Salafi" almost in an exclusionary and sectarian manner, making the term "salafi" the primary means of identification instead of the term "Muslim." As such we began to see ourselves as different instead of interacting kindly towards the ummah in order to call them to the correct methodology, which is the methodology of the salaf. I also sometimes shun using the word because the ultimate goal of following the salafi minhaaj is to follow Islam correctly, not simply to identify yourself as "salafi"
Subhanallah first I’d like to say May Allah bless this brother and forgive him of his shortcomings. I really appreciate the transparency of his answers. I can truly say that I became salafi through our brother Dawood from a tape I purchased at a masjid in Allentown PA on 7th st Masjid AtTuba at the time. What was ironic is the brothers there didn’t like the Salafi Dawah So when things happen in my life I’m led to guided to a thing that has some lessons I’m sure it’s Allah that has guided me to it. I may miss the guidance, the blessing or favor but I’m 100% sure that Allah has caused it to accrue. This is why for me when I moisten my young with the remembrance of Allah I’ll seek his forgiveness 70% of those times. 😢
As Salaamu alaykum Ustaath Dawud! I hope you see this comment. This is your li'l bro Mikaal Yusuf Waters (Ibn Yusuf Ben Yusuf) 🫶🏽 Great to relive the founding days of Masjid At Taqwa, learning deen at your feet and those of Br. Abdur Rauf 🤎🤎🤎🤎🤎
This man, Dawud Adib, single-handedly led the boycott of Abu Muslimah and split the black Salafi community nationwide in half! If Dawud wants to be “mentioned” so bad then let him tell that story. This man was a sheer menace and truly destructive force. Oh, and I’ve yet to hear anything even remotely resembling an apology for what he did to rip us apart!
Though I’m opposed to Wahhabism in general and specifically Saudi attempts to control Islam in America, this is an historical account which must be preserved.
Whether you agree with him or not, this is important history. If there are others with corrections and other perspectives on the time period they should come forward. For those in our urban areas we fail generation after generation because its hard to grow as a group of people not just individuals when you are not clear of your history. You make the same mistakes and think its brand new. His example of harsh treatment of those you disagree with vs for the sake of Allah correcting people is a huge lesson. Also it amazes me how people feel comfortable belittling those students that it appears sacrificed their youth, livihood and Allah knows best what else for knowledge. We act like it is not apparent that the effect of this that basic knowledge is not wide spread from amongst us. We continue to make the mistake of pointing to ourselves or a few others that try to learn. We are allowing our youth to be taken because we belittle the knowledgable. That is not what we see from those that have been successful with connecting their families to the deen.
As Salaamu Alaikum wa rahmatulilahi wa Barakatahu Alhamdulilaah to be on the Salafi Manhaj. I came from the Nation of Islam to Warith Deen Muhammad in West Philadelphia. I strongly believe he was guiding us to the Qur’an and Sunnah and advised us to purchase and read Sahih Bukhari . May Allah make his grave spacious and bless him with a home in Paradise Ameen
In response to the question asked by the host at the 1 hour 48 minute mark in regards to some examples of Dawood's call to the salafi minhaaj at that time: 1."Take revelation in its entirely" 2. "The Saved Sect" Both were Friday sermons given by Shaikh Dawood at Lincoln St, East Orange during the mid 90's
Assalam alaikum. May Allah preserve Shaykh Dawood. I remember in the 90s how close Dawood was to Shaykh Adly when him and the Shaykh used to visit Ahli Sunnah in East Orange. I'm glad he spoke a few words about Shakh Adly and what happened to their relationship. Alhamdulillah I'm glad he has changed his ways and extremely glad he spoke about the effect Shaykh Al albani had on his dawah.. May Allah continue to guide us all to what is pleasing to him the Most High!!
السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته I first heard about salafiyah was dawud in East orange new jersey. This was in 1994 my uncle and auntie lived in the sameprojects
Bro i remember salafi bros in the 90s most of yhem straight out of jail going around asking where is Allah in a very rude way to muslims and having beef with imaams and elders seems like only now they are getting the message that muslims exist outside their circle and scholars can be non arab . Now most of them guys identify as hanbali now, it just takes time for people to get knowledge and experience to understand that you cant do diy fiqh you need the imaams of the early generation's .
Dawud Adib is not being mentioned out of mercy for him, concealing his long legacy of fitnah and division and his single-handed destruction of entire communities. This man could have been a great leader with all of his oratorical gifts, but he squandered them due to his hatred and jealousy of other voices who were on the scene. No, those of us who were there in the 90’s refuse to bring up Dawud’s name today because it is simply too painful to remember.
(M). ماشالله شيخ دَاوُۥدُ May Allah accept this. And have mercy on and forgive us and you. If we heard the mistakes that were made and the atomic blast that it created, whose radius expands beyond US boarders, it would be educational and hopefully by it, many will be guided by learning 'what not to do'. "I was one of the noble brothers." 🤣 My man. I love you for Allah.
"They are trying to remove people like myself from the History, by not mentioning me." Who is doing this? As evidenced by what? Where is the evidence of such a claim?
May Allah Almighty guide and help us… most brothers brought that separation to Al-lslam in Ninty and jealousy of each others and still go on now in our community. We have to follow Quran and the Sunnah of our beloved prophet Muhammad SAW.
*Benefit From Imaam:* *Muqbil bin Hādi* *Al-Waadi* -May Allāh have mercy on him- 👉🏾"If the weighing scale with you is the majority/having the numbers, then having numbers is blameworthy. 👉🏾 If the weighing scale with you is eloquence in speech, then Allaah has described the Munaafiqeen that they are ones with sharp tongues and He said; ☝️🏾(وَإِن يَقُولُوا۟ تَسْمَعْ لِقَوْلِهِمْ) *"and when they speak, you listen to their words."* [Al-Munaafiqoon: 4] 👉🏾 So that which is taken into consideration is knowing the people of truth by their attributes, and that they call to the Book of Allaah and the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allaah ﷺ, they don't want any reward or thanks from the people." 📚 *Qam'l-Mu'aanid* (2/551) *Translated by:* Abu Abdillaah 'Omar bin Yahyaa Al-'Akawi
Narrated Ibn Abbas (Radi-Allahu 'anhu): Al-Imām Ahmad رحمه الله said: “May الله bestow mercy upon a servant who: ‘Speaks the truth, follows the Athār [narrations]; adheres to the example and guidance of the Messenger of الله, and emulates the righteous Salaf asSaleh [Pious Predecessors and Successors].’” Tabaqāt al-Hanābilah 1/36
The Prophet and his companions then the generation after them then the generation after them, These three generations the Prophet praised them and said they are the best generations, so the understanding of the Deen is taken from them.
He was saying we will all have to stand before Allah and that he witnessed a brother made tasleem to the right and couldn't complete the tasleem to the left because he died in his prayer. Hope that helped. Assalam mu Alaikum

Current salafism and early salaf is not the same, so called today's salaf is the product of wahabists from petro dollars in arabia, they do say we are salafi and practice the true islam and others are wrong, they denied the good imans who lived 300 years after the prophet , the 4 four mainstream imams in islam, imam maliki, habafi, shafi'i and imam ahmed ben hambal as well, obviously these great imam lived their best time in islam. Today's salafist idealogy is the tool to dismantle unity of muslims.
They definitely don't deny the 4 emaams, I've lived in Saudia for 10 years and all the scholars here take from them, but their courts follow specifically Imaam Ahmed Ibn Hanbal. Don't beleive the hype!
The Prophet pbuh gave us Islam not salafiyya. I remember when salafiyya before it was completely morphed from wahabi islam to salafiyya, they didnt accept madhabs. Now madhabs are accepted. Then they started reading more and theyve started translating some ashari ma'turidi scholars. For example you'll find translation by Sh Saalih al Uthaymeen of Riyad as Saliheen or Al Albani writing on Fath al Baari of Ibn Hajr al Asqalani.

You were affected because you wanted to eat as the rest of them were doing and continue to do. Makes sense, his own explanation. Sad part is that you took the back seat to young ones.
There is no such thing as salafi islam this is an innovation and sectarianism . Allah Almighty says in the Quran it is i that named you muslim , he didn't say i named you salafi , Allah Almighty also said i today have perfected the religion and chise islam as your religion sunni shia all these names added to islam are bidah and misguided , the cresent moon and star symbol is also a bidah and has no significance in the deen the only thing Muslims are supposed to follow is prophet Muhammad pbuh Quran and SUNNAH nothing else , Rasul said I leave two things if you follow you wont go astray the Quran and the SUNNAH
The rawafidh (shia) commit many kufr acts and the many sects who call themselves “sunni” will also believe in bid’ah (and some will do kufr). How are you meant to differentiate yourself from these people? You saying you are a Sunni will be different from someone in Sierra Leone who is allegedly a Sunni but practices sihr
He gives dawah everyday my brother. Not knowing about the existence of a thing does not negate the existence of that thing. Knowledge before statements and actions.
He’s a Salafi Shaykh from America, is firm upon it, loves the truth, and is not a partisan. He doesn’t belong to the Hizbi group(s) of this day. If you don’t know him, fall back and be quiet (respectfully), Rahimakallaah.
Subhaanallaah. He’s friends with the Salafi Da’ee, with a Master’s Degree in The Sciences of Hadith, Shaykh Muhammad Mufti Muneer? It must be nice and beneficial, Maashaa Allaah Tabaarakallaah.

Assalaam Alaikum, I love you sheikh for Allah’s sight Your Dua impacted a generation by Allah’s permission! The late 80’s and 90’s were best days for many of us. Knowing very little what happened but felt the impact. I would hope you would make a “public statement” apologizing and asking forgiveness from the entire Muslim communities that were impacted . Many communities were damaged and unity broken. So it’s not just a hand full of people’s. By Allah’s permission, hopefully your best Dua days are ahead of you. Look forward hearing more of your lectures
Either speak good or remain silent. Many of the believers don't have correct abab. The Prophet Muhammad ibn Abdullah may Allah be pleased with him had Hikmah many of you who say you follow our beloved Nabi have bad manners and your speech is very harmful to other's and these individuals you attack pray to the same Allah you do and allow the Nabi like you do, and offer the salat like you do and are upon the same Aqeedah you are on. However you don't have good manners, and your Muslim brother or sister is not safe from your harm (speech or words or blood) Al Bayhaqi said faith has over 77 branches and good manners shyness etc are only some of them. If you silence is better than your harmful speech go check yourself go repent rectify your affairs. If you don't like someone or you don't like who they be around, addresses that individual one on one who bring your proof from the Quran and Sunnah foe your argument and come alone . Because the platform was for people lobe and appreciate our brother Shaykh Dawid Adib HafidUllah Aameen so how did you even get on this page it's brand new. Did not Allah has do not spy on one other? And our beloved Nabi said not to vilified one another this is from the four pillars of kufr jealousy envy rankor and hatred. We know them by heart thanks to Allah blessing us with Shaykh Dawud Adib. Too much speech with no benefit from it, it's better to just remain silent because some of you'll speech is like fire and hot coals ot lives us empty and with a bad smell!
Those saafiqa are the worst fitnah hizbee people I’ve never known,, al hamdulah our noble alama muhamad bin hadee exposed these hizbees saafiqa ashrar,,
Man get out of here with that Saafiqah nonsense, Muhammad bin Hadee was responsible for a good chunk of the chaos we see today with the Salafi da’wah in the West today, leave that hizbiyyah to yourself
@@palestinianmaytr48 no cares about the bin hadi fitna but at least he knows quran and has ilm. Your imaam AK can't call himself a scholar or an alim. He doesn't know quran nor have i personally see him lead the salah after a khutbah. 77 scholars of ahlul sunnah refuted in a 12 year period. Some with good merit, others with no good reason.
I could careless about that whole Saafiqah Musafiqah fitnah nonsense but lets be truthful, the only reason why it went out of hand was Muhammad ibn Hadi spoke out about it instead of keeping it behind closed doors like the scholars advised.

I remember your work in the prisons upstate New York way back when and I must applaud you, however, for apologizing and I read your book "Letter to My Christian Parents" and you appear to have really grown and sincerely left behind a lot of the negativity some of our Brothers on this min'haj have associated themselves with that has given the Salafi daw'ah a bad taste in a lot of people's mouth! Which is a shame because the Truth deserves a listen and the oppportunity to correct our misconceptions about the deen!
Mashallah, GREAT interview, Shaykh. May Allah continue to guide and protect you (Amin)🙏🏽
@1:04:20 May Allah preserve and protect our shaykh(elder) n keep him firm upon the truth. This statement here and Allah knows best is gonna make some ppl very upset. So be prepared for the pdfs videos rumors n every other form of attacks u can think of to start rolling out. No matter what one thinks abt this person or that person know!!! That the truth is bitter. May Allah join the hearts of the muslims together upon the truth
To make a long word short: a lot of people are using the tem "Salafi" almost in an exclusionary and sectarian manner, making the term "salafi" the primary means of identification instead of the term "Muslim." As such we began to see ourselves as different instead of interacting kindly towards the ummah in order to call them to the correct methodology, which is the methodology of the salaf. I also sometimes shun using the word because the ultimate goal of following the salafi minhaaj is to follow Islam correctly, not simply to identify yourself as "salafi"
I couldn't agree with you more!
Subhanallah first I’d like to say May Allah bless this brother and forgive him of his shortcomings.
I really appreciate the transparency of his answers.
I can truly say that I became salafi through our brother Dawood from a tape I purchased at a masjid in Allentown PA on 7th st Masjid AtTuba at the time.
What was ironic is the brothers there didn’t like the Salafi Dawah
So when things happen in my life I’m led to guided to a thing that has some lessons I’m sure it’s Allah that has guided me to it.
I may miss the guidance, the blessing or favor but I’m 100% sure that Allah has caused it to accrue.
This is why for me when I moisten my young with the remembrance of Allah I’ll seek his forgiveness 70% of those times. 😢
As Salaamu alaykum Ustaath Dawud! I hope you see this comment. This is your li'l bro Mikaal Yusuf Waters (Ibn Yusuf Ben Yusuf) 🫶🏽 Great to relive the founding days of Masjid At Taqwa, learning deen at your feet and those of Br. Abdur Rauf 🤎🤎🤎🤎🤎
This man, Dawud Adib, single-handedly led the boycott of Abu Muslimah and split the black Salafi community nationwide in half! If Dawud wants to be “mentioned” so bad then let him tell that story. This man was a sheer menace and truly destructive force. Oh, and I’ve yet to hear anything even remotely resembling an apology for what he did to rip us apart!
'Word is Bond'....'I Bond my Word'....'Word'. Ya'll youngins don't know bout that.
I grew up on that lol. Especially growing up in NY.
This is what’s needed.
Though I’m opposed to Wahhabism in general and specifically Saudi attempts to control Islam in America, this is an historical account which must be preserved.
Whether you agree with him or not, this is important history. If there are others with corrections and other perspectives on the time period they should come forward. For those in our urban areas we fail generation after generation because its hard to grow as a group of people not just individuals when you are not clear of your history. You make the same mistakes and think its brand new. His example of harsh treatment of those you disagree with vs for the sake of Allah correcting people is a huge lesson. Also it amazes me how people feel comfortable belittling those students that it appears sacrificed their youth, livihood and Allah knows best what else for knowledge. We act like it is not apparent that the effect of this that basic knowledge is not wide spread from amongst us. We continue to make the mistake of pointing to ourselves or a few others that try to learn. We are allowing our youth to be taken because we belittle the knowledgable. That is not what we see from those that have been successful with connecting their families to the deen.
As Salaamu Alaikum wa rahmatulilahi wa Barakatahu
Alhamdulilaah to be on the Salafi Manhaj. I came from the Nation of Islam to Warith Deen Muhammad in West Philadelphia. I strongly believe he was guiding us to the Qur’an and Sunnah and advised us to purchase and read Sahih Bukhari . May Allah make his grave spacious and bless him with a home in Paradise Ameen
May Allah bless you for sharing this!
I only met you twice and heard you speak once, and I can attest that you were good at reading the room and gentle with the people.
In response to the question asked by the host at the 1 hour 48 minute mark in regards to some examples of Dawood's call to the salafi minhaaj at that time: 1."Take revelation in its entirely" 2. "The Saved Sect"
Both were Friday sermons given by Shaikh Dawood at Lincoln St, East Orange during the mid 90's
Subhaan'AllAAH...
May AllAAH subhana wata'alaa place Dawud Adeeb in the highest level of Paradise...
Aameen
May Allah bless and keep our sheik in good health ameen ya rab,I know him from Germantown masjid, it's refreshing to listen to him masallah
Assalam alaikum. May Allah preserve Shaykh Dawood. I remember in the 90s how close Dawood was to Shaykh Adly when him and the Shaykh used to visit Ahli Sunnah in East Orange. I'm glad he spoke a few words about Shakh Adly and what happened to their relationship. Alhamdulillah I'm glad he has changed his ways and extremely glad he spoke about the effect Shaykh Al albani had on his dawah..
May Allah continue to guide us all to what is pleasing to him the Most High!!
السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته I first heard about salafiyah was dawud in East orange new jersey. This was in 1994 my uncle and auntie lived in the sameprojects
wow subhanALLAh the sheikh himself!!!!! so many books translatde by him and lectures
Bro i remember salafi bros in the 90s most of yhem straight out of jail going around asking where is Allah in a very rude way to muslims and having beef with imaams and elders seems like only now they are getting the message that muslims exist outside their circle and scholars can be non arab . Now most of them guys identify as hanbali now, it just takes time for people to get knowledge and experience to understand that you cant do diy fiqh you need the imaams of the early generation's .
Dawud Adib is not being mentioned out of mercy for him, concealing his long legacy of fitnah and division and his single-handed destruction of entire communities. This man could have been a great leader with all of his oratorical gifts, but he squandered them due to his hatred and jealousy of other voices who were on the scene. No, those of us who were there in the 90’s refuse to bring up Dawud’s name today because it is simply too painful to remember.
(M). ماشالله شيخ دَاوُۥدُ May Allah accept this. And have mercy on and forgive us and you. If we heard the mistakes that were made and the atomic blast that it created, whose radius expands beyond US boarders, it would be educational and hopefully by it, many will be guided by learning 'what not to do'. "I was one of the noble brothers." 🤣 My man. I love you for Allah.
"They are trying to remove people like myself from the History, by not mentioning me." Who is doing this? As evidenced by what? Where is the evidence of such a claim?
May Allah Almighty guide and help us… most brothers brought that separation to Al-lslam in Ninty and jealousy of each others and still go on now in our community. We have to follow Quran and the Sunnah of our beloved prophet Muhammad SAW.

👉🏾"If the weighing scale with you is the majority/having the numbers, then having numbers is blameworthy.
👉🏾 If the weighing scale with you is eloquence in speech, then Allaah has described the Munaafiqeen that they are ones with sharp tongues and He said;

*"and when they speak, you listen to their words."*
[Al-Munaafiqoon: 4]

I wish our Shaykh was still in Philly. Anybody know where he is at exactly in New York? Me and the brothers would love to visit him.
Mashallah.. I miss this brother
Maashaa Allaah Allaahumma Barak
Love and peace to our dear brother Abu taubah

Narrated Ibn Abbas (Radi-Allahu 'anhu):
Al-Imām Ahmad رحمه الله said:
“May الله bestow mercy upon a servant who: ‘Speaks the truth, follows the Athār [narrations]; adheres to the example and guidance of the Messenger of الله, and emulates the righteous Salaf asSaleh [Pious Predecessors and Successors].’”
Tabaqāt al-Hanābilah 1/36
If done for Allah’s Pleasure then Allah will reward you
Masha'allah I know exactly who he's talking about . If your not with us your against us menhaj.
Dawud was the most savage practitioner of boycotting and ruining the name of fellow Muslims, disgraceful!
SPUBS hated on Dawud already...
Yup 1:31:42
who are the salaf salafiyyah follow? ibn taymiyyah not from the salaf, as well ibn abdul wahab. please enlighten me
The Prophet and his companions then the generation after them then the generation after them, These three generations the Prophet praised them and said they are the best generations, so the understanding of the Deen is taken from them.
What was the point being made regarding seeing someone do one tasleem? Near 1:37
He was saying we will all have to stand before Allah and that he witnessed a brother made tasleem to the right and couldn't complete the tasleem to the left because he died in his prayer. Hope that helped. Assalam mu Alaikum

No longer a Muslim but Salafi for nearly 28 years. As the elders of the Salafis get older, these stories have to be told. Stay gold, Sheikh Dawud. 🙏🏽
Current salafism and early salaf is not the same, so called today's salaf is the product of wahabists from petro dollars in arabia, they do say we are salafi and practice the true islam and others are wrong, they denied the good imans who lived 300 years after the prophet , the 4 four mainstream imams in islam, imam maliki, habafi, shafi'i and imam ahmed ben hambal as well, obviously these great imam lived their best time in islam. Today's salafist idealogy is the tool to dismantle unity of muslims.
They definitely don't deny the 4 emaams, I've lived in Saudia for 10 years and all the scholars here take from them, but their courts follow specifically Imaam Ahmed Ibn Hanbal. Don't beleive the hype!
💔
😭😣😩😫
That’s right… NORK, NJ, Shaykh 😂
The Prophet pbuh gave us Islam not salafiyya. I remember when salafiyya before it was completely morphed from wahabi islam to salafiyya, they didnt accept madhabs. Now madhabs are accepted. Then they started reading more and theyve started translating some ashari ma'turidi scholars. For example you'll find translation by Sh Saalih al Uthaymeen of Riyad as Saliheen or Al Albani writing on Fath al Baari of Ibn Hajr al Asqalani.
Dawahta salafiyaa
Maaaaaannnnnn
Would you agree Dawood Adeeb, that you fell into blind following some of the Ulema of Saudi of America, as did most of the pseudo Salafis today ?

@1:36:20 better wake up!!!!

You were affected because you wanted to eat as the rest of them were doing and continue to do. Makes sense, his own explanation. Sad part is that you took the back seat to young ones.
Yeah,but where is the connection to the actual Salaf. Always talking about contemporary approaches.
@sarahmuhammad261 be careful you don't want to be a called a liar
They were destined to eat their young.
There is no such thing as salafi islam this is an innovation and sectarianism . Allah Almighty says in the Quran it is i that named you muslim , he didn't say i named you salafi , Allah Almighty also said i today have perfected the religion and chise islam as your religion sunni shia all these names added to islam are bidah and misguided , the cresent moon and star symbol is also a bidah and has no significance in the deen the only thing Muslims are supposed to follow is prophet Muhammad pbuh Quran and SUNNAH nothing else , Rasul said I leave two things if you follow you wont go astray the Quran and the SUNNAH
The rawafidh (shia) commit many kufr acts and the many sects who call themselves “sunni” will also believe in bid’ah (and some will do kufr). How are you meant to differentiate yourself from these people? You saying you are a Sunni will be different from someone in Sierra Leone who is allegedly a Sunni but practices sihr
No you got it wrong, you weren't mentioned because you left on your own. You stopped giving dawah for your own personal reasons!
He gives dawah everyday my brother. Not knowing about the existence of a thing does not negate the existence of that thing. Knowledge before statements and actions.
Laa he was locked out the Masjid. I was there at that time.
After Abdul Rahman Al Afriki was attacked and has soda poured on him. While noone stopped the attacked!
@@rafiaahabbas3935 stop lying for him!
He’s a Salafi Shaykh from America, is firm upon it, loves the truth, and is not a partisan. He doesn’t belong to the Hizbi group(s) of this day. If you don’t know him, fall back and be quiet (respectfully), Rahimakallaah.
Yeah but now your buddy is mufti Muneer. You are on the deen of your friend.
Subhaanallaah. He’s friends with the Salafi Da’ee, with a Master’s Degree in The Sciences of Hadith, Shaykh Muhammad Mufti Muneer? It must be nice and beneficial, Maashaa Allaah Tabaarakallaah.
@abukanaaz5377 he's definitely not no sheikh..who did he study under and who gave him ijaza and im referring to mufti muneer...as far as dawud adib I love the brother alhamdulillah
@@aqeedatulsalafiyyahThis is when you need to learn to shut up. your either one of the two
1. Your an internet jinn/ or human jinn/ messing around on the internet causing fitna
2. or your basically just a hater.
Assalaam Alaikum,
I love you sheikh for Allah’s sight
Your Dua impacted a generation by Allah’s permission!
The late 80’s and 90’s were best days for many of us.
Knowing very little what happened but felt the impact.
I would hope you would make a “public statement” apologizing and asking forgiveness from the entire Muslim communities that were impacted . Many communities were damaged and unity broken. So it’s not just a hand full of people’s.
By Allah’s permission, hopefully your best Dua days are ahead of you.
Look forward hearing more of your lectures
Either speak good or remain silent. Many of the believers don't have correct abab. The Prophet Muhammad ibn Abdullah may Allah be pleased with him had Hikmah many of you who say you follow our beloved Nabi have bad manners and your speech is very harmful to other's and these individuals you attack pray to the same Allah you do and allow the Nabi like you do, and offer the salat like you do and are upon the same Aqeedah you are on. However you don't have good manners, and your Muslim brother or sister is not safe from your harm (speech or words or blood) Al Bayhaqi said faith has over 77 branches and good manners shyness etc are only some of them. If you silence is better than your harmful speech go check yourself go repent rectify your affairs. If you don't like someone or you don't like who they be around, addresses that individual one on one who bring your proof from the Quran and Sunnah foe your argument and come alone . Because the platform was for people lobe and appreciate our brother Shaykh Dawid Adib HafidUllah Aameen so how did you even get on this page it's brand new. Did not Allah has do not spy on one other? And our beloved Nabi said not to vilified one another this is from the four pillars of kufr jealousy envy rankor and hatred. We know them by heart thanks to Allah blessing us with Shaykh Dawud Adib. Too much speech with no benefit from it, it's better to just remain silent because some of you'll speech is like fire and hot coals ot lives us empty and with a bad smell!
I love you all my dear brothers ,, As-Salamun alaykum wa Rahmetullahi wa Barakatuh
Those saafiqa are the worst fitnah hizbee people I’ve never known,, al hamdulah our noble alama muhamad bin hadee exposed these hizbees saafiqa ashrar,,
Man get out of here with that Saafiqah nonsense, Muhammad bin Hadee was responsible for a good chunk of the chaos we see today with the Salafi da’wah in the West today, leave that hizbiyyah to yourself
@@palestinianmaytr48 no cares about the bin hadi fitna but at least he knows quran and has ilm. Your imaam AK can't call himself a scholar or an alim. He doesn't know quran nor have i personally see him lead the salah after a khutbah. 77 scholars of ahlul sunnah refuted in a 12 year period. Some with good merit, others with no good reason.
@@palestinianmaytr48 no he didnt. SUbhanallah the fitnah was caused by arafat al muhammadi with his lies......
I could careless about that whole Saafiqah Musafiqah fitnah nonsense but lets be truthful, the only reason why it went out of hand was Muhammad ibn Hadi spoke out about it instead of keeping it behind closed doors like the scholars advised.
@@taimurahmad With all due respect, Shaykh Muhammad ibn Hadi was also being untruthful in many instances, let’s be honest
