Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
No, no, that is not right. Do not call yourselves Salafi, and do not call yourselves the People of the Sunnah, for this divides people. Do not call yourselves by the creed, for this divides people.
The Shaykh:
We take pride, and praise be to Allah, in being called the Sunnah, in following the Salaf, and in the correct creed. This is an honor for us, and we do not care about anyone. We do not care if the followers report on us or if the opponents report on us; we do not care about that. Yes. And Allah the Exalted knows best.
