The claim that the methodology of the Salaf is to divide people
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, some of the callers say that the methodology of the righteous Salaf is to divide people, because their callers divide people into many categories and speak about the people of da'wah and righteousness. What is your opinion?
Answer:
This is from the call of misguidance. The one who says this statement is from the callers of misguidance, not from the callers to Allah the Exalted. The one who speaks about the scholars of the Ummah, the Salaf of the Ummah, the Companions, and the Tabi'un, and says that they divide people, is lying and fabricating against the Salaf of this Ummah. Yes.
