SALAFI CONFUSION ABOUT "TAWHID" and "SHIRK UR-RUBUBIYYAH"

Salafiyyah appear to now be shifting the goal posts after the pressure that Sunnis are now piling on them.

This is very interesting discussion and I'd like to summarise the alarming errors the Salafi committed... 1) The Salafi conflates "rububiyyah" with "tawhid ur-rububiyyah".

Tawhid ur-rububiyyah is to ascribe ALL attributes of Lordship to Allah alone. Ascribing 1 attribute of rububiyyah to Allah is not TAWHID ur-rububiyyah. Come on Salafis! It's a simple point about numbers.

@FloidHidden @ali_aqeedah Assalamu alaikum brothers.

1/6) The hadiths by Abu Dawud and Khatib al-baghdad tell us that the 1 sect of out of the 73 that's saved is As-Sawadul Adham (The Vast Majority). The 4 schools of fiqh and the 3 schools of creed have always represented the majority.

Next... @FloidHidden @ali_aqeedah 2/6) Salafiyyah know they're a minority and to protect themselves they reproduce statements from the salaf to suggest that the minority in the Ummah can be the saved sect. Ibn Mas'ud's statement was said to ulema who lived in Baghdad during the emergence of an early heresy.

@SalafisUnveiled @AlShurahbeel A jamāʿ is represented by it's beliefs. If those beliefs are kufr, the jamāʿ is kufr. But the individuals within it cannot be judged kuffār. If they have affirmed the shahada they are regarded as Muslims - even if they claim affiliation to that jamā... @SalafisUnveiled @AlShurahbeel Every Muslim is, by default, presumed innocent if they manifest kufr by the following excuses:

• ignorance [juhl]
• interpretation [ta’wīl]
• compulsion [iqrār]
• slip of the tongue [zallatul-lisān]
• sleep [nawm]
• irrationality (i.e. insanity, childhood, etc.) [junūn]...

HOW IBN ABDUL WAHHAB CHANGED THE SHAHADA [THREAD]

[1-8] ilāh & rabb are inseparable
[9-14]
• MIAW redefined ilāh
• used this to redefine the shahada
• made takfir on anyone who disagreed
[15-19] contradicted the Salaf
[20-21] killed Muslims who opposed him
[22-24] Review Image Salafis, it's normal to be upset when your beliefs are challenged. But a bricked-wall defensiveness is a sign that Allah left you misguided. Before reading, please make a duʿa for guidance, from wherever it may be🤲

Sunnis, be generous of character: the truth is on your side.

@MilitantVerbal @SalafisUnveiled @Al_Herawi @PonderingSpiri3 @theshishaking O I'm not uncomfortable. Far from it. I've sat here and watched you commit intellectual suicide. I studied Buhuti's quote AT LENGTH last year because MIAW used it & his brother Sheikhul Islam Suleiman gave him a proverbial slap in the face when he exposed him... @MilitantVerbal @SalafisUnveiled @Al_Herawi @PonderingSpiri3 @theshishaking ... by showing both the context & MIAW's ignorance of basic Arabic grammar. Inshallah a thread is coming on this & when it hits I hope it will teach you to have more humility in your speech. "You're twice my level"? Sure. I don't care. I'm an idiot, a fool, a sinner. But..

@TovbEdnGecOlmdn @SalafisUnveiled @Abu_Fatima44 @IbneKhan01 Invoking a creation as a means to seeking the aid of Allah - the POWER & SOURCE of benefit IS istighatha.

Forgive me brother, but I fail to understand the Salafi distinction between tawassul (e.g. using your good deeds = halal) and istighatha (using a wali/prophet = shirk)... @TovbEdnGecOlmdn @SalafisUnveiled @Abu_Fatima44 @IbneKhan01 ... The wali or prophet is a creation of Allah who has no power or ability.

Your deeds are also Allah’s creation & have no power or ability. “Allah created you and what you do.”

If Salafis say it's shirk to use one powerless creation as a means to Allah (i.e. a prophet)...

[THREAD] UNDERSTANDING PAGAN GODS... AND WHY IBN ABDUL WAHHAB DIDN'T UNDERSTAND SHIRK

A polite Salafi brother sent me this hadith (online Salafi edition) as evidence the Jahili Arabs believed in Allah's sole rububiyyah (Creator, Sustainer, etc)

Let's break this down inshallah Image 1) The mushrikun said Allah had no partner. The Prophet ﷺ then condemns them. Why? Because they also said Allah DOES have a partner but that partner has no mastery over Allah. I.e. there's another being like Allah (co-sharer in His attributes) but Allah is stronger than him.

THE MUSHRIKŪN OF ARABIA HAD ZERO TAWHID... ZERO.

Ibn Abdul Wahhab (MIAW) misused verses of the Qur'an to claim that the pagan Arabs believed Allah was the ONLY Lord (creator, sustainer, etc) but they worshipped many gods.

This is kufr as it contradicts the Qur'an.

He used... ... these verses to say that Muslims were identical to the mushrikūn & should likewise be fought & killed. What followed was a religious genocide.

The verses are: 10:18; 10:31 23:84-90; 29:61; 39:38

Salafis use them as weapon to strike believers.

Here's how to strike back...

MOONSIGHTING & EID THREAD

For anyone interested in the endless debates about local moonsighting please read Imam an-Nawawi's commentary on the relevant hadith in Sahih Muslim (translation by my Sheikh's student). It makes clear the necessity for LOCAL moonsighting. I've been fighting this battle for the 14 years I've been a Muslim & at last some mosques in the UK (where I am) are adopting it. To the naysayers still not convinced after reading the text, pls consider:

1. If we don't pray dhuhr when Saudi do, why begin Ramadan when they do?

SALAFI CONTENTIONS: AN ADDENDUM TO CRITIQUE OF WAHHABI-SALAFISM

The last thread was a simplified & condensed form of the first 70+ pages of my book. Please read it before proceeding:
My book goes into depth verses analysis & review MIAW’s works + archeological evidence that Arabian paganism was virtually identical to other ancient paganisms. Please make dua that Allah gives me the means (waseelah) to finish it.

Now, Salafis will object to my first thread...

1) CRITIQUE OF WAHHABI-SALAFISM

A “twitterised” version of my forthcoming book. But first...

1a) NON-MUSLIMS
Salafism is a different religion posing as Islam & predominates in the West. Taking Islam from them is like taking Catholicism from Lutherans. It’s a whole other thing! 1b) SALAFIS: I mean you well, so please avoid:

• foul speech: it’s childish & Allah may give me your deeds on Y/Qiyama.
• protests like “go learn your aqida!” Bring me valid source & reference it FULLY
• hasty judgments: Read the whole thread 1st then comment.
