A Manhaj of Purification and Education
By Imaam Muhammad Naasirud-Deen al-Albaanee (d.1420H)

"The key to a return of the glory of Islaam means implementation of beneficial knowledge and establishing righteous and correct actions, and this is a very great affair which the Muslims cannot reach, except through... (more)

 

Our Da'wah

  1. Judging to the Noble Qur'aan and the Authentic and Purified Sunnah in every affair of the affairs of life.

  2. Every issue of Aqeedah (creed), ibaadah (worship) or manhaj (methodology) which the Book of Allah and the Sunnah has not provided a text for and upon which the Companions never agreed upon is falsehood, vain and inovated.

  3. Affirming what is in the book and the Authentic Sunnah in every issue to the issues of Aqeedah and not resorting to ta'weel (figuratve interpolation) with respect to any of it and not delving into argumentation regarding it in that for which there is not place fo the intellect.

  4. Not arguing with the People of Innovations and Desires, or sitting with them, listening to their words or presenting any of their doubts (to others).

  5. The prophetic Manhaj (methodology) which is found in the Qur'aan, the Saheeh compilations of Bukhaaree and Muslim and the remaining books of the Sunnah and the sayings and actions of the Salaf us-Saalih, not the various new and pretentious manaahij (methodologies).

  6. Acquainting the Muslims of their true religion and calling them to act in accordance with its teachings and rulings and to adorn themselves with its excellencies and its noble manners - which will guarantee for them the pleasure of Allah and which will bring into reality both happiness and glory.

  7. Warning the Muslims from Shirk (associating partners with Allah) in all its different manifestations, and from innovations, all strange and false thoughts and rejected and fabricated Hadeeth - all of which have mutilated the beauty of Islaam and have prevented the advancement and progress of the Muslims.

  8. Eagerness for bringing about the Jamaa'ah of the Muslims and uniting their word upon the truth and in the truth. And these multiplicity of contemporary groups and parties have divided the Muslims and have mutilated the beauty of Islam.

  9. It is a duty upon every Muslim, Muwahhid to restore and offer the rights that the Sharee'ah has upon him with respect to the Scholars, the Senior Shaikhs - to respect them, honor them, giving them their due recognition and estimation, taking knowledge from them, refraining from attacking them and their honor and keeping far from causing doubt their intentions. So do not be a helper to the criminals by abandoning the Scholars of the Sunnah, and by this action of yours, make the people flee from them, from their lectures and gatherings - and forsake them, leaving as booty for the Du'aat (callers) of political agitation and incitement or leave them neglected as prey for the various parties and groups.

  10. Getting closer to Allah - the Mighty and Majestic - by giving obedience to whomever Allah has placed over our affairs and not to rebel against him.

  11. Following the truth, absolutely and unconditionally in both narration (riwaayah) and opinion (ra'i) without specifying a specific person or group besides the Messenger(saws) as someone to be followed in all circumstances.

So let it be known that this has not fully covered our da’wah and our ’aqeedah, since our da’wah is from the Book and the Sunnah, to the Book and the Sunnah, and our ’aqeedah is likewise. And Allaah is sufficient for us, and He is the best of those who are trusted. And there is no might, nor power, except with Allaah.

’Abdullaah Ibn Mas’ood (radiyallaahu ’anhu) said, “Doing a little of the Sunnah is better than striving hard upon innovation.” Refer to al-Laalikaa‘ee (1/188), al-Ibaanah (1/320) and as-Sunnah (p. 30) of Ibn Nasr.
