What is Salafiyyah ?

Salafism [or Salafiyyah] is the true Path in following Islam and the Sunnah. A Salafi is one who follows the path of the Salaf As-Sālih exactly without alteration.

What is a Salafi?

To be a Salafi means adhering to the Creed, Methodology and the way of life of the Salaf As-Sālih (the Pious Predecessors). The earliest Salaf were the generation of our Prophet ﷺ and his Companions. Then after them came the two virtuous generations of believers who held fast to the Sunnah (Path) of the Prophet and his Companions. After the Companions came The Tab’ian then the Tabi Tab’ian [Hadith in Evidence Section]. The person who understands this path correctly, follows it exactly, without introducing anything into it and nor deviating from it is a Salafi.

Who do we take from ?

We take from the Quran & Sunnah by the understanding of the Salaf. We also take from all 4 of the Madhab’s and we are not Fanatical about anyone one of them. We understand they were human and they could make errors.

What do we do when we differ ?

We don’t differ in matters of Aqeedah because the 4 Madhabs are all one in Aqeedah. However in matters of Fiqh we differ which is normal as the Sahaba differed in matters of Fiqh. If we do differ we will take the Sahih Narration and stick to it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Abu Āaliyah (talk • contribs) 19:58, 28 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
