Imaam Ahmad said, "The graves of Ahl us-Sunnah from those who committed the 
major sins are like gardens. And the graves of Ahl ul-Bid’ah from amongst their 
abstemious pious ones are hollow and empty. The sinners of Ahl us-Sunnah are the 
Awliyaa’ (Friends) of Allaah and the abstemious pious ones of Ahl ul-Bid’ah are 
the Enemies of Allaah." (Tabaqaat ul-Hanaabilah 1/184).
Consider well, O Sunni, what our Pious Forefathers have left for us as a 
legacy and as an admonition. When it is the case that Innovations in aqidah and 
manhaj are the cause of splitting and differing, and lead to the emergence of 
sects, and these sects have been threatened with Fire, and when it is also the 
case that Shaytaan beautifies the Innovations and makes them appealing and to be 
guidance and light, then the People of Innovation and Adulterated Principles are 
more dangerous and harmful than a sinful, villain from Ahl us-Sunnah. For you 
know of your crime with the latter and can repent from it and amend your ways, 
but when you take as your friend Adnaan Ar’oor the Qutubist Politician, Mohammad 
Qutb the Takfiri Khariji, Mohammad Suroor the Takfiri Qa’dee, Abdur-Rahmaan 
Abdul-Khaaliq the Shurocrat and Sworn Bannaawi, then you think them to be upon 
guidance and you think their adulterated principles and innovatory methodologies 
to be the truth embodied and you think that these principles and methodologies 
are a deliverance for the Ummah, and so you affiliate yourself with them and 
show loyalty and disownment for their sake and thus fall into the Fire., the 
while you think yourself to be a rightly guided "Salafi" (!!), yet you are 
nothing but a hizb (sect) from amongst the ahzaab, upon other than 
the Manhaj of Nubuwwah.
