What is the reason for your description of Shaykh Abd al-Rahman Abd al-Khaliq as an Ikhwan?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : How are you, Shaykh?
The Shaykh : Praise be to Allah, I am well.
The questioner : May I ask you a question, O Shaykh?
The Shaykh: Go ahead.
The questioner : Now, O Shaykh, Shaykh Abd al-Rahman Abd al-Khaliq, in terms of creed, is a Salafi, not an Ikhwan.
The Shaykh: Yes.
The questioner : So what is the reason that made Shaykh Abd al-Rahman Abd al-Khaliq an Ikhwan?
The Shaykh : Because he authored his treatise on politics, and in it he mentioned that a Muslim must inevitably commit what is forbidden in these days. This is nothing but an Ikhwan methodology. The Salafi methodology, on the other hand, commands every Muslim to fear Allah (Mighty and Majestic) to the best of his ability, and it does not establish for people a methodology that contradicts the Shari'ah of their Lord. Do you understand why?
The questioner : The reason is permissible, that is...
The Shaykh : Do you understand why?
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh : Yes, you no longer have a reason to say: "And it is not such-and-such," once you have known the affirmative answer, the negative question is negated. And peace be upon you.
The questioner: And upon you peace.
The Shaykh : Praise be to Allah, I am well.
