Is It Permissible to Refer to an Individual as a “Madkhalī”?

Shaykh Sālih Al Fawzān (حفظها لله), from the Mashāykh of Rīyādh KSA, answers:

“This enters into the answer which I have just finished (answering) a short while ago. Leave these affairs and using insulting names, ‘And do not insult one another with names’ (49:11), 

Allāh the Mighty and Majestic said to you,

‘And do not insult one another with names’ (49:11). 

All of your are associates and all praise is due to Allāh. So abandon these affairs, and respect the Scholars, respect the Scholars. Whoever does not respect the Scholars, their knowledge will be withheld from him, he will be prevented from benefiting from them. So leave these affairs, using insulting names for each other and attacking the scholars who have an excellence. 

They (the scholars) have a position over the people which Allāh put them in,

‘Allāh raises those who believe amongst you and those who have been given knowledge in ranks’ (58:11).

Hence, the Scholars have their position, their status and their respect. When no trust is held in the Scholars, then in whom will trust be held? When trust towards the scholars is taken away then to whom will the people turn? This is a plot without a doubt and an infiltration without a doubt between the people. Hence it is obligatory to be aware of it. It is obligatory to shun it and keep away from it and to prohibit from it, yes.”

What Is Intended by the Term “Madkhalīs”?

The terms “Madkhalī” and “Madkhalīs” or “Madākhilah” are used and applied in a derogatory sense by numerous factions of people in order to scapegoat one particular Scholar [Shaykh Rabī bin Hādi Al Madkhalī] for their own woes and for the demise and downfall of their innovated methodologies and their figureheads (see further below). In reality, this is not about one particular Scholar. They use these terms in order to veil and conceal their hate, resentment and enmity to the generality of the Scholars of Ahl us-Sunnah, the people of Hadeeth and Athar, even if they make opportune attachments to some of them and some of their sayings.

Shaykhul Islām Ibnu Taymīyyah (رحمه الله) exposed the contradiction of those who celebrate the Prophet (ﷺ)’s birthday.

He mentioned that those who practice the bid’ah of the mawlid are like the one who adorns the mushaf (which is not permissible) but doesn’t read it or act upon it, or like the one who deocrates the masjid but doesn’t pray in it!”

Beware of the Following Names

Ahmad Mūsā Jibrīl is NOT a Salafī Scholar.

Abdul Azīz at-Tarafe is NOT a Salafī Scholar.

Sālih Al-Munājjid is NOT a Salafī Scholar.

Sulaymān Al-Ulwān is NOT a Salafī Scholar.

Nāsir Al-Fahd is NOT a Salafī Scholar.

Salmān Al-‘Awdah is NOT a Salafī Scholar.

Abū Muḥammad al-Maqdisī is NOT a Salafī Scholar

Abū Qatādah is NOT a Salafī Scholar

Anwar Al-Awlakī was NOT a Salafī Scholar.

Sayyid Qutb was NOT a Salafī Scholar.

Please see the links / refutations above. Understand who the aforementioned individuals are, read about their backgrounds and the twisted ideology [Khārijites] they so staunchly ascribe to. Regardless of what any Wikipedia article may indicate, the names above do not belong to scholars upon the methodology of the noble Salaf. These individuals are figureheads of the Khawārij; an evil, deviant group that perpetrates violence, death, and destruction, and have been refuted by the respected, authentic scholars of Islām time and time again [please see this website (http://www.kharijites.com) for more information].

As the noble Shaykh Sālih Al-Fāwzan (حفظه الله), from the scholars of Riyādh KSA explains, the three main characteristics (among others) from the methodology of Khawārij are:

They excommunicate the Muslims from the religion [al-Islām].

They exit from obedience to the lawful Muslim ruler.

They make permissible the blood of the Muslims (i.e. they believe it is allowed to kill them).

If you see any of the names listed above on a blog, please beware and place the blog on your block list.

By the blessings of Allāh, one of the deviant individuals listed above, Salmān Al-’Awdah, was recently arrested in Saudi Arabia due to evidence of ties to national and foreign terror cells (Source: Twitter account of student of knowledge Abū Miftah Adil bin Arif)

[pearlsofislam]

Please visit the links in the original post to read refutations for each of the aforementioned individuals listed.

No country, government organization, or person sets the ultimate criterion for who is an extremist / from the Khawārij, it is the noble Qur’ān and the Sunnah of our beloved Messenger of Allāh (ﷺ) that teaches us the principles of identifying extremism and those who fall under such a category.

[letmeremainanonymous]

What about Salih al Munajjad?

[pearlsofislam]

May Allāh bless you. We should certainly not and do not take from Sālih Al Munājjid, as he is a follower of the deviant ideology espoused by Sayyid Qutb [please see this informative website, with references, for more on the deviation of Sayyid Qutb].

A simple search of his website [IslamQ&A] for the word ‘Qutb’ or ‘Muhammad Qutb’ (the brother of Sayyid Qutb) will show numerous results. Here is the refutation, also linked in the original post, of Sālih Al Munājjid. In addition, the website IslamQ&A has been blocked in Saudi Arabia due to its propagation of extremist content / the ideology of Sayyid Qutb, whose works have also been removed from all Saudi curriculum. I hope this information helps address your question, Inshā’Allāh.

[pearlsofislam]

A Warning & Clarification

There are two prominent personalities whose names you may frequently see floating around on Muslim Tumblr. These individuals are:

Ahmad Musā Jibrīl

Abdul Aziz at-Tarafī

Both these ‘preachers’ to Islām are highly suspect, have committed crimes/actions that are against the correct Islāmic beliefs, and often call to extreme views that have been brought to attention by both the authentic respected scholars of Islām as well as Western investigative journalism.

The first, Ahmad Musā Jibrīl from the Detroit Michigan area, has previously spent six and half years in federal prison with a 20-count indictment for bank fraud, conspiracy, money laundering and using false Social Security cards as well as investigation for links to terrorism. Ahmad Musā Jibrīl and his father, Musā Abdullāh Jibrīl, were convicted of “buying 13 homes and two apartment buildings in Metro Detroit and insuring them for much more than they were worth. The pair were accused of defrauding six banks of more than $250,000.” [source]. In addition, Ahmad Musā Jibrīl is well known to incite the youth towards groups such as ISIS and other forms of terrorism [source].

The second individual, Abdul Aziz at-Tarafī, is currently under arrest in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia for hateful preaching, and calling the rulers of the nation apostates [source]. A heavy accusation that no Muslim would want upon themselves, let alone hear from the pulpit. 

Abū Dharr (رضي الله عنه) said: I heard the Messenger of Allāh (ﷺ) saying, “If somebody accuses another of disbelief or calls him the enemy of Allah, such an accusation will revert to him (the accuser) if the accused is innocent.”

[Sahīh Bukhārī & Sahīh Muslim, Riyadh as-Saliheen, Chapter 326, Hadith no. 1733].

Please be wary of feel good quotes by the aforementioned individuals, kindly refrain from reblogging them, and advise those who reblog/share their works. May Allāh guide us all and enable us to implement the truth to the best of our ability, Ameen. I appreciate your taking the time to read this post, BārakAllāhu feekum.

[pearlsofislam]

Please do not follow or reblog from blogs that propagate Ahmad Mūsā Jibrīl or Abdul Azīz at-Tarafī. These two individuals are not scholars of Islām but in reality are criminals, by the very definition of the word, who advocate an extreme and dangerous ideology.

Sincerity and Servitude to Allaah- [O Allaah! Grant Us Grant This Sincerity and Servitude..Aameen]

Shaikhul Islaam Ibn Taymiyyah said:The sincere person tastes the sweetness of servitude to Allaah which prevents him from servitude to other than Allaah; for there is nothing sweeter and more comforting to the heart than the sweetness in belief in Allaah–The Lord of the Aalameen.

[pearlsofislam]

Shaykh ul-Islām Ibn Taymeeyah (رحمه الله‎‎) said:

“المطلوب فهم معاني القرآن والعمل به، فإن لم تكن هذه همة حافظه لم يكن من أهل العلم والدين” 

“What is required is understanding the meanings of the Qur’ān and acting upon it, if the one who memorised it does not have a concern for understanding the meanings of the Qur’ān then he is not from the people of knowledge and Deen.”

From the Plots of Shaytaan is to make Mankind Excessive & Wasteful in all Matters...

Translated by

Abbas Abu Yahya

Shaykh ul-Islaam Ibn Taymeeyah (d.728) -Rahimullaah- said:

‘The Shaytaan wants mankind to be excessive and wasteful in all his matters. Indeed, if the Shaytaan sees him inclining towards mercy excessively, then the Shaytaan beautifies mercy from so much so that the human does not hate that which Allaah hates, nor is he protective over that which Allaah is protective.

And if the Shaytaan sees him inclining to harshness for him for other than Allaah’s sake, so much so that he leaves off being good, piety, gentleness, keeping good relations and mercy which Allaah and His Messenger have ordered, then the human transcends in his harshness, so he increases in criticism, hate and the infliction of punishment to the degree at that which Allaah and His Messenger do not love. So this person leaves that which Allaah commands, of mercy and being good and he is rebuked for this and is sinful in this.

He is excessive and wasteful in regard to harshness more so than that which Allaah and His Messenger have ordered, so much so that he transcends the boundaries, and that is excessiveness in Allaah’s commands, so the first is sinful and the second is excessive and wasteful, and Allaah does not love the wasteful ones.’

[Tafseer al-Kabeer 5/247]
