The questioner : I am a witness, and I have lived with the Ikhwan since the beginning of the 1950s, that we never felt on any day that you were a stranger to us, and we did not feel either that the scientific output you presented was different from what we were upon. Throughout this period that we lived in the Ikhwan, and we still do not accept a creed except the creed of the righteous Salaf, and the methodology is also the methodology of the Salaf, and this does not contradict the original call of the Ikhwan.
The Shaykh : Correct.
The questioner : And I have detailed that in your conversation, may Allah reward you.
The Shaykh : And you.
The questioner : Unfortunately, this stance that you mentioned from the leadership of the Ikhwan in Jordan originally contradicts the path that al-Banna (may Allah have mercy on him) took, which you referred to a moment ago.
The Shaykh : Yes

But with all regret, many people of desire and many of the superstitious entered the Ikhwan, and these people cannot imagine, their minds cannot imagine, that the books of the Shaykh... and his call would spread in every place, so they resorted to such spreading of rumors and to stirring the emotions of the young Ikhwan to tell them that the Shaykh is an enemy of the Ikhwan.
