And on the authority of Abu Hureirah, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Prophet ﷺ said:
(الرَّجُلُ عَلَى دِينِ خَلِيلِهِ، فَلْيَنْظُرْ أَحَدُكُمْ مَنْ يُخَالِلُ)
"A man is upon the religion of his close friend, so let one of you look at who he takes as a close friend".
[Ahmed, Abu Daud, Tirmidhi and others with a Hassan chain of narration]
Similarly the statement of Ibn 'Abbas, may Allah be pleased with him:
"Don't sit with the people of Desires, for indeed their sittings bring about sickness".
[Reported by Ibn Battah in Al-Ibaanah 371]
The statement of Ibn Qillaabah Al-Jarami:
"Don't sit with the people of Desires, I fear that they will submerge you in innovation or deceive you in regards to your religion".
[reported by Daarimi in the introduction of his Sunan nr.405 with an authentic chain of narration]
Imam Ibn Battah, may Allah have mercy upon him, spoke the truth when he said:
"...I pondered over the reason which exited people from the Sunnah and the Jamaa'ah, and forced them to Innovation and Shanaa'ah (hideousness), and open up the door of calamities to their hearts, and have the light of the truth be veiled from their insight, I found this from two angles:
...
The other:
Sitting with those that you are not safe from their fitnah and corrupts the hearts when accompanying them.
[Al-Ibaanah 390/1]
Shaykh Muhammad bin Hadi Al-Madkhali (➡️ click here for more recent information on him) refuted this wrongful path, he said:
Now we are hearing that...boycotting if it got a benefit then yes if there's not then no!!!
Meaning it's like that we want the person that we boycotted!
As for protecting our children, and the children of the (people of the) Sunnah and the Salafi way, and to deter them from mixing with the Innovator, so that they don't become misguided due to him, this is another affair which is not being turned towards!!
This either comes about through ignorance, or Desires, or both.
O Brothers beware of this, beware of those that say this statement, read the books of the Imams of the Sunnah, all praise is to Allah, they are infront of us with their chains of narrations, present...bring us a single letter from within it which points to the contrary to what I have mentioned, so that we may follow you upon what you are saying of this statement which is falsehood and wrongful!!!
[Lecture entitled "Boycotting the people of Innovation and Desires, and warning from them, is from the Sunnah and the Methodology]
I say:
The boycotting out of preservation, by fleeing from the people of Innovation and their doubts which snatch people, is obligatory:
By the ruling from the Book and Sunnah and the Methodology of the Salaf-Us-Saalih
It's then not required to redirect it away to other than these great foundations!
Imam Ahmed, may Allah have mercy upon him, said:
It's a must to boycot those who disbelieved or became a faasiq through innovation, or calls to a misguiding innovation or one which renders one a faasiq.
Upon those that are unable to rebuke them or fear them or fear being deceived by them and being harmed.
[Al-Adaab Ash-Shar'iyyah 267/1]
This will become clearer in what's to come.
