Some accuse us of relying only on Ibn Taymiyyah and the Imams of the Dawah, and that they brought forth what contradicts the methodology of the Salaf?

Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Often, those who oppose the people of the Sunnah say that we, the people of the Sunnah, rely only on the Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah and the Imams of the Dawah (may Allah have mercy on them all), and that they brought something new that contradicts the Salaf. So, Honorable Shaykh, will you guide us to books that support what the Shaykh al-Islam and the Imams of the Dawah say?

Answer:
Whether in creed or in other matters. Does he say they contradicted the Salaf? Let him give us something specific that they contradicted the Salaf in, and let him specify it for us. But if he accuses them of [something] like this, it is not acceptable from this person of no standing. If he is truthful, let him specify for us what they contradicted the Salaf in. Let him specify this for us so we can see. But how can he do this? Yes.
