Not everyone is qualified to give Tazkiyyah



Imām Rabee Al'Madkhali-may Allāh preserve him- said:
"Not everyone who claims to have knowledge is qualified to give a tazkiyyah.But a tazkiyyah has to be from those who have expansive knowledge,and they have experience ,knowledge of Al'Jarh wa At'ta'deel and they know that which criticizes an individual and removes his adālah¹ and that which raises an individual  from righteous actions and truthfulness, and beneficial knowledge."

as-Shaykh al-Imām Rabee's advice to those who rely on commendations and their actions do not testify for them that they are Salafī.

as-Shaykh Rabee’ was asked: "Some of the callers are not known for Salafiyyah and they were warned against, but there are still those who sit with them with the argument that they were not disparaged with a detailed disparagement, and they were commended by as-Shaykh al-‘Abbād and other than him. So brothers have been divided between critic and praiser because of those callers. So what is your statement to them?" Answer: "I say it is obligatory upon the one who the people have differed concerning him and who does not commend himself by openly manifesting the Salafī  methodology, but he relies on the commendation of this one and that one...This one and that one are not infallible with their commendations, they could give a commendation based on the apparent condition of an individual and that apparent condition could flatter them and he could pretend that he is upon Salafiyyah and that he is upon the correct methodology, and he hides the opposite of what he makes ap...

Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Hādī Al-Madkhalī explains the evil results of bad companionship

Al-Allāmah Muhammad ibn Hādī Al-Madkhalī حفظه الله تعالى said: "Sufyaan ibn Wakee' ibn Al-Jarrah ibn Maleeh Ar-Ruāsī was afflicted by his warraq, which means his writer, because his writer used to write down hadeeths that was not his. The people advised him about his writer several times, but he did not accept their advice, so he fell, and using him (i.e., his hadeeth) as proof was rejected. And this is a proof of evil companionship and that his company could affect you O person being accompanied, even if you are not doing what he does, and this is also a sign for us in this time, they say so and so is from the students of the Mashayakh the student of so and so, ok if he was evil how does that help so and so? It doesn't help him in anyway, Sufyaan ibn Wakee' was harmed because of his writer he was advised he was told his writer was evil, he puts hadeeths with your hadeeths that's not your hadeeths, but he refused to accept the advice so they abandoned him.

Giving precedence to the elders is not general

Giving precedence to the elders is not general Ibn Battāl Rahimahullah said in the explanation of Saheeh Al-Bukhārī vol.9 pg. 317 and 318 in the Maktaba alrushd print Honouring the elders and putting them first in speaking and in all affairs is from the manners and excellent morals of Islām, and Abdur-Razzaq mentioned in the Hadeeth (from glorifying Allāh's loftiness is respecting those who have reached old age in Islām) and with this meaning the Prophet ﷺ said:(The elder the elder) So he ordered  to let the elder be the first one too speak, so this is a Sunnah, but the Hadeeth of Ibn 'Umar proves that the meaning of this is not general, in fact it is incumbent that the elder starts speaking in that which the young and old are equal in knowledge, but if the youth knew that which the elder was ignorant of, then it is incumbent for the one who has knowledge to mention it and put it forth, even if he was young, and that is not considered bad manners or being short with the ri...
