The Ruling on Affiliation with Groups and Division

The questioner:
The questioner says: We are in a country, and praise and thanks are due to Allah, under a single leadership and belonging to a single group. Is it permissible to affiliate with any other group, whether it is a da'wah (calling to Islam) group or otherwise?

The Shaykh:
No, it is not permissible. This division is not permissible. Division in methodology is not permissible. Division of any kind is not permissible. As long as we are upon a clear and correct methodology, and those who came before us from among the people of this land followed it, and this has continued in this land, we are upon their path, and praise be to Allah. We do not accept any principle, any methodology, any group, or any school of thought that comes to us. We protect our land from that, and we hold fast to our creed and our methodology. And we are, praise be to Allah, in no need of it. Yes.

The questioner:
Even if it is a group of compensation or a group of justification.

The Shaykh:
Whoever wants to call to Allah should join our da'wah. Praise be to Allah, we have a ministry entirely dedicated to da'wah. If he is interested in da'wah, he goes to the ministry. They look into his case. If he is suitable, they make room for him. If he needs education, they teach him and study with him. So da'wah exists, praise be to Allah. Yes.
