And from them are those that are not excused, treading upon the basis in this, as preceded many Imams of the Sunnah were upon this, and at the head of them Imam Ahlussunnah Imam Ahmed bin Hanbal, as the clarification of this preceded, and the Salafi narrations from the Imams are many, in declaring innovation upon those that are attributed to knowledge and Sunnah who are described as Imams, as innovators.

And Allah is the guide to the right path.(4)


So do we not pay consideration to the narrations of the Salaf-us-Saalih?!

Don't you know that Allah, the Most High, said:

(وَمَن يُشَاقِقِ ٱلرَّسُولَ مِنۢ بَعْدِ مَا تَبَيَّنَ لَهُ ٱلْهُدَىٰ وَيَتَّبِعْ غَيْرَ سَبِيلِ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ نُوَلِّهِۦ مَا تَوَلَّىٰ وَنُصْلِهِۦ جَهَنَّمَ ۖ وَسَآءَتْ مَصِيرًا)
"And whoever contradicts and opposes the Messenger (Muhammad ﷺ) after the right path has been shown clearly to him, and follows other than the believers' way. We shall keep him in the path he has chosen, and burn him in Hell - what an evil destination."
[An-Nisaa:115]

So are they people of oppression and transgression, who are not just and have no fairness in what relates to people of mistakes and missteps?! Because they didn't prevail the angle of their good?!
