The Shaykh Al-Albani’s explanation of the Quranists’ methodology and the corruption of their beliefs, and the refutation of them from the Qur'an.

The Shaykh : So, it is not permissible for there to be among the Muslims, as we hear in this recent time, many of the trials in various forms, one of which sprouted originally in the lands of India and then spread to other Islamic lands. They call themselves the Quranists, but they are disavowed of any affiliation to the Qur'an, because the Qur'an, as you have heard, commands us to follow the Messenger (peace be upon him) and to refer to the Messenger in what we differ upon. The Qur'an itself was revealed to him so that he might explain it to the people. So, these people who call themselves Quranists do not turn to the Prophet (may Allah pray upon him and grant him peace) to resolve the disagreement that may occur between Muslims or between groups of Muslims. So, we have left the Messenger (may Allah pray upon him and grant him peace), as it came in another hadith: . So, this knowledge is then drawn from these two sources: the Book and the authentic Sunnah. And everything beyond that, if it is not drawn and taken from these two sources, is a religious innovation and misguidance. Therefore, the advice of the Prophet (may Allah pray upon him and grant him peace) came in some of his sermons, among which is what was narrated by the people of the Sunnah and the compilers of the Sunan, such as Abu Dawud and al-Tirmidhi and others, with a sound chain from al-'Arba' ibn Sariyah (may Allah be pleased with him), that the Prophet (may Allah pray upon him and his family and grant him peace) delivered a sermon to his companions one day and said to them: . And in the other hadith, and I will not add here because this hadith ends here. And in the other hadith, which is from the hadith of Jabir: . In this hadith, al-'Arba' says in his introduction: "The Messenger of Allah (may Allah pray upon him and his family and grant him peace) gave us a sermon that moved our hearts and caused our eyes to weep. So, we said: 'Advise us, O Messenger of Allah.'" And he said, and mentioned the hadith. In this hadith, as you have heard, there is something new that may appear to some minds to be inconsistent with the previous statement that there is nothing but the Book and the Sunnah. We find in this hadith the Prophet (may Allah pray upon him and grant him peace) saying: . So, how do we say there is nothing but the Book and the authentic Sunnah? Here we are now facing a new text in which the Prophet (may Allah pray upon him and grant him peace), when he commands his companions to follow his Sunnah, appends to his Sunnah the Sunnah of the Rightly Guided Caliphs, saying: to the end of the hadith. I want to draw your attention to the fact that I said, so these two sources are Islam, and what is derived from them. So, what is not derived from them is not of Islam in any way. And among that is what I mentioned earlier in the hadith of al-'Arba' that the Sunnah of the Rightly Guided Caliphs has been commanded for us to follow in this Sunnah which we left the Messenger of Allah (may Allah pray upon him and grant him peace) for, on a pure white [path], its night like its day. It is not only this, but there is something else explicitly stated in the Noble Qur'an, and this is a very important matter: . That is the saying of the Lord of the Worlds: . So, here there is an appending to opposing the Messenger: , meaning: If Allah (Mighty and Majestic) commands the Muslim to follow the path of the believers, the path of the Muslims, otherwise, just as if he opposed the Messenger, so if he contradicts the path of the believers, path?
