A Statement Warning Against Books on the Sunnah

Question:
I heard last Friday some remarks regarding your case concerning the books on the Sunnah, namely the book *Kitab al-Sunnah* by Imam Ahmad, and the book by Abu 'Aasim. It was not clear to us what was intended by your remarks regarding them: is it a warning against them?

Answer:
O, glory be to Allah! This is not what was understood. We say that some of the people of misguidance have warned against the books on the Sunnah. There is a person currently present who is a Jahmi who comments on the books and says, "Beware of the books on the Sunnah: *Kitab al-Sunnah* by 'Abd Allah ibn Imam Ahmad, *Kitab al-Sunnah* by Ibn Abi 'Aasim, and *Kitab al-Sunnah* by al-Khallal. He counted ten books on the Sunnah and warned against them." He is known to be a Jahmi, and he is in Jordan. I mentioned him. Yes. Allah knows best, and may Allah send prayers and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad, and upon his family and his Companions.
