All Praise is for Allaah alone, and prayer and salutations upon the Messenger
of Allaah and upon his family and companions and those who follow his guidance.
As what follows/to proceed:
Some papers reached me containing statements of the two Salafee Allaamahs’
Shaykh Ibn Baaz and Shaykh Ibn al-‘Uthaymeen which the Jamaa’ah at-Tableegh
circulate amongst the ignorant and those who do not know the reality of their
false manhaj and ‘aqeedah.
And the reality is that the statements of the two Shaykhs supports them.
So the statement of Shaykh Ibn Baaz is based upon a report from a Tableeghee
man, or one who is sympathetic to them, which was narrated to Shaykh Ibn Baaz
contrary to that which they are upon and depicted them contrary to their true
nature, and confirms that which we say the statement of Shaykh Ibn Baaz
(rahima-hullaah):
"…and no doubt, certainly the people are in severe need of such good meetings
gathering upon the remembrance of Allaah and inviting to holding steadfast to
Islaam and applying it’s teachings and ridding the Tawheed (of Allaah) of (all)
innovations and superstitions..." [see his fatwa, reference number 1007, dated
17/08/1407 A.H which the Jamaa’ah at-Tableegh now circulate].
So this (fatwa) suggests that the narrator mentioned in his report that
certainly that this Jamaa’ah calls to holding steadfast to Islaam, applying it’s
teachings and ridding the Tawheed (of Allaah) of (all) innovations and
superstitions. So, as a result, the Shaykh has praised them.
And if the narrator of the report spoke the truth and depicted them upon
their reality and explained the truth of their false manhaj, then we would not
have seen from Imaam Ibn Baaz, the Salafee, the monotheist, except impugnation
towards them and warning against them and their innovations, as he had done in
the last fatwa regarding them attached to this one (above).
And in the statement of Allaamah Ibn al-‘Uthaymeen as to that which supports
them, refer to his statement as follows:
"Remark: If the difference (of opinion) is in ‘aqeedah issues, then it is
obligatory to correct (this) and that which opposes the way of the Salaf. For
indeed, it is obligatory to detest it and warn those who tread (the path of)
that which opposes the methodology of the Salaf in this aspect. [See Fataawa Ibn
al-‘Uthaymeen - Volume 2, Page 939-944, similar to that which the Jamaa’ah
at-Tableegh distribute].
And no doubt the difference of opinion amongst the Salafees, the Ahlus-Sunnah
wat-Tawheed and the Jamaa’ah at-Tableegh is an extreme and profound difference
in ‘aqeedah and manhaj.
For they are upon the way of the Maatureediyyah, those who have innovated in
the attributes of Allaah and who are from the Soofiyyah in their worship and
manners, giving the oath of allegiance and from that, these sects uphold (the
belief) in al-Hulool and Wahdatil-Wujood and shirk with the graves and other
than that from (their) falsehood.
And without a doubt the noble Shaykh Ibn al-‘Uthaymeen does not know, and if
he were to know this about them, then certainly he would have denounced them for
the falsehood (upon which they are on) and would have severely warned against
them. He would certainly have trodden the Salafee path with them just as both
his Shaykhs, Imaam Muhammed Ibn Ibraaheem and Imaam Ibn Baaz had done. And just
as Shaykh al-Albaanee, Shaykh ‘Abdur-Razzaaq ‘Afeefee, Shaykh Fowzaan, Shaykh
Hamood at-Tuwayjaree, Shaykh Taqqee ad-Deen al-Hilaalee, Shaykh Sa’d al-Husayn,
Shaykh Sayf ar-Rahmaan, Shaykh Muhammed Aslam had (all) done with their great
publications, which clarified the falsehood of the Jamaa’ah at-Tableegh and
their danger and that which they are upon in their false ‘aqeedah and manhaj so
the serious student of knowledge should refer to them.
And Shaykh ‘Abdur-Rahmaan al-Misree reverted (back) from having written in
praise of the Jamaa’ah at-Tableegh and he admitted his mistakes to me.
As for Yoosuf al-Malaahee, then he is amongst those who spent many years with
them, then wrote a book about them which explained their falsehood and corrupt
‘aqeedah, then sadly he reverted back from the truth and then wrote another book
about them. His first book assists him and that which the scholars of manhaj
wrote about them refutes his falsehood; and the (most) important rule is (in the
science of al-Jarh wat-Ta’deel) is that al-Jarh takes precedence over and above
at-Ta’deel. So it nullifies all praise from anyone, even if the Tableeghees
uphold the correct Islaamic rules (teachings) and trod the path of the people of
knowledge and advice for Islaam and the Muslims.
