Al-Imām Rabee' ibn Hādī Al'Madkhalī the flagbearer of al-Jarh wa at-Ta’deel in our era: Muhammad al-Anjarī and Ahmed as-Subayī are from the best of the Salafiyyeen and from the most virtuous of them.



Questioner: Assalamu alaykum wa rahmatullah

Shaykh Rabee': Wa alaykum as-salam wa rahmatullahi wa barakātuhu

Questioner: Shaykhānā (our shaykh), how are you?

Shaykh Rabee': May Allāh preserve you and bless you.

Questioner: Shaykhānā May Allāh bless you, I wanted to ask you about as-Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Uthmān al-Anjarī and as-Shaykh Ahmed as-Subayī (may Allāh preserve them) because these days doubts are being spread about them, that they are with Fālih al-Harbī and affairs concerning this.

Shaykh Rabee': In the name of Allāh the most merciful the bestower of mercy, all praise is due to Allāh; and peace and blessings upon the Messenger of Allāh, his family and his companions and those who follow his guidance. To proceed: The answer to this question is; I do not know of these two individuals, Muhammad al-Anjarī and Ahmed as-Subayī except that they are from the best of the Salafiyyeen and from the most virtuous of them, and I do not know them to lean towards Fālih or anyone else who opposes the salafī methodology. We know them to be firm upon the Sunnah inshā Allāh.

Questioner: Yes O Shaykhānā

Shaykh Rabee': And that is not ever said about them, the statement which was said about them is not said about them, that statement is an error and falsehood, so it is upon the one who says this type of speech to fear Allāh.

Questioner: May Allāh bless you Shaykhānā.

Shaykh Rabee': HayākAllāh.

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

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 rig

It is not a condition that warnings and refutations come from scholars

Imām Rabee b. Hādī al-Madkhalī stated: I would be nice that a refutation would be from an 'Ālim firmly grounded in knowledge with the descriptions that you mentioned, but it is not an obligation on every refuter to fulfill these discriptions, and it is not obligatory to complete these discriptions in every refutation, and if we was to make this a condition for every refuter and every refutation corruption would spread and would over come most of the Ummah except for some exceptions of the people. And what emphasizes the inaccuracy of the refuter having to fulfill these conditions is that you will not find in most Muslim lands firmly grounded Salafi Ulama, but you will find in those lands students of knowledge, and with that Allāh aided them in the spread of Tawheed and refuting polythiesms and innovations and superstitions. And i ask Doctor Ibraheem if there was a country or countries in which innovations and evil was being spread, and there was not found in that countr
