Al-'Allāmah Rabee' Ibn Hādī Al-Madkhalī regarding some of the extremisms of the Sufies

Al-'Allāmah Rabee' Ibn Hādī Al-Madkhalī said about the sufies:

And from the extremism the Sufies have with their scholars is that they quote their statements as if it is revelation and they do not weigh the statements of their scholars with the Kitāb of Allāh and the Sunnah of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. And this is what lead the Sūfī scholars to alot of statements that have no relation to the Qurān and Sunnah.
And this is the opposite of the people of the Sunnah and their Scholars, those who weigh the statements of the people after the Prophets (statements) with the book of Allāh and the Sunnah of his Messengerﷺ.
So whatever agrees with the Qurān and Sunnah they accept it, and whatever opposes the Qurān and Sunnah they reject it, and from the foundations of Ahl as-Sunnah is Allāh the most high's statement, "and if you was to disagree in anything then return it back to Allāh and his Messenger
 if you believed in Allāh and the last day this is better and the best understanding."
And from the foundations that are taken from the Qurān and Sunnah is:Everyones statement is accepted or rejected except the Messenger of Allāh.
And you will find the Sūfies are from the furthest people from these foundations. Look at the biographies of their Scholars and their statements to see the extremism and exaggeration and their statements and beliefs , and how they go too far with stories and tales about miracles, from them the claim that their scholars have knowledge of the unseen and observe what is in the people's hearts and what is on their minds that which we don't find anything like it from the salaf.

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
