Question:
This questioner asks: Is it permissible to warn against new, deviant methodologies?
Answer:
O my brothers, the new methodologies and the old ones, the methodology is one; there are no multiple methodologies in Islam.
Islam is one methodology and one path; there are not multiple methodologies or multiple paths. That is only with the people of misguidance. And Allah, Mighty and Majestic, says:[Al-An'am 6:153]. And the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said: This is the single methodology. Islam does not have multiple methodologies; it has one methodology: the methodology of the people of the Sunnah and the community, which was the way of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and his Companions. Yes.

وَأَنَّ هَٰذَا صِرَاطِي مُسْتَقِيمًا فَاتَّبِعُوهُ وَلَا تَتَّبِعُوا السُّبُلَ فَتَفَرَّقَ بِكُمْ عَن سَبِيلِهِThis Ummah will split

على ثلاث وسبعين فرقة كلها في النار إلا واحدة، قالوا من هي يا رسول الله؟ قال من كان على ما أنا عليه وأصحابي،
