Clarification that the Salafi creed is not an invention of Ibn Taymiyyah and Ibn al-Qayyim

Question:
This questioner, O Shaykh, sent a question in which he says: There are those who say, O Shaykh Salih, that the Salafi creed is the creed of Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah (may Allah have mercy on him) and Ibn al-Qayyim (may Allah have mercy on him) only, and not the creed of the righteous Salaf.

Answer:
This is a lie and a fabrication against the two Shaykhs that they innovated a creed from themselves. Rather, the two Shaykhs, Ibn Taymiyyah and his student Ibn al-Qayyim, revived the creed of the righteous Salaf and removed from it what had attached to it of religious innovations, newly invented matters, and pre-Islamic ignorance. They are renewers (may Allah have mercy on them) who follow the creed of the Salaf and explain it. This is their task (may Allah have mercy on them). They are among the renewers of the methodology of the Salaf and the callers to it. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you. Honorable Shaykh
