Some people call for combining Salafism with the Muslim Brotherhood movement, claiming cooperation and non-separation; is there any validity to their position?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : Now, if you have something else, bring it up!
The questioner: Question.
The Shaykh: Yes.
The questioner : Other than this issue.
The Shaykh : Ah, okay.
The questioner : Let us return to the matter of da'wah.
The Shaykh : The matter of da'wah.
The questioner : Some of our brothers in the Kingdom say: We must not divide the ranks, and we should cooperate with the Ikhwan. He means the brothers who combine the methodology of the Salaf with the activist approach, like the Muslim Brotherhood, and not just like the Ikhwan!
The Shaykh : May Allah guide them.
The questioner : So I do not know; is there any validity to this?
The Shaykh : It has no validity, and fleeing from distinction is fleeing from the truth; because among His names (peace be upon him) is al-Fariq (The Distinguisher), who first distinguishes between truth and falsehood, between shirk (associating partners with Allah) and tawhid (the oneness of Allah), between kufr (disbelief) and iman (faith), and between the disbeliever and the believer; therefore, He distinguished between the father and his son, and between the son and his father; so they are fleeing from the truth in reality, and this is the policy of the Muslim Brotherhood that they lived through for a period of time without gaining anything.
Mashhur: Our Shaykh, I have arrived, if you permit, I will stay with you so that I may return and benefit.
The Shaykh : Excuse me, that is up to you!
Mashhur: Close by, I mean I would like to stay with you so that I may benefit, may Allah reward you with good.
The Shaykh : And to you.
Mashhur: May Allah bless you, I apologize for interrupting your speech.
The Shaykh : Pardon me.
So now, our brother "Abd al-Rahman Abd al-Khalq" adopted this fabricated methodology between the Salafi da'wah and its methodology and the methodology of the Muslim Brotherhood, and I do not say: their da'wah; so what did he achieve? He lost, he achieved nothing, the Salafis who were raised for so many years in the Salafi da'wah, the da'wah is dissolving from them little by little, so many of them no longer care about what they sometimes call details, sometimes the outer shell, and sometimes they express that this is good, but this is not the time for it and not its moment, "and whoever sees the lesson in others, let him take heed," this is if our da'wah were not very clear in its correctness; how much more so when it is the truth?! And as it was said: "So leave me," what did the poet say?
Another student: This is the truth.
"This is the truth, there is no obscurity in it *** So leave me from the intentions of the road"
