Hanifiyyah is possible the most liberal of the four madhhabs (jurisprudential schools) while Salafiyyah is among the most conservative.

We have to distinguish between "Salafis" groups and "Dawat-us-Salafiyyah".

Anti-Wahhabi riot in Barcici

BARCICI, BOSNIA - More than 100 residents of the small, Bosnian Muslim village of Barcici were involved in a riot against 10-15 Wahhabi Muslims on Sunday.

The conflict broke out over the use of the local mekteb (Muslim primary school). A 75-year old man was injured by the Wahhabis and a car was damaged by the rioters in the incident, the police confirmed yesterday.

“It’s our right to use the mekteb, we built it, not the Wahhabis,”, says Rusmir Hasanovic, Head of the local Islamic Community.

“The Wahhabis have come to our village and the authorities haven't protected us, so we did it ourselves”, adds Hasanovic.

"They're not men of God, they're nothing more than lowly thieves and criminals! They come into our village, our home, to ridicule and taunt our men, intimidate our women, and corrupt our children. That is why they've taken over the mekteb, to brainwash our children with their lies and hatred. That is why they've come, and that is why they'll be leaving!"
- Emina Hasanovic, Barcici.

"How can a dozen people be so difficult for the authorities to control? It's all a lie, I promise you. The police just don't want to be seen as getting involved in religious affairs because they're afraid. Well, I say to them, can you not see what your fear has done? Can you not see what these men have done to our village? When they take over the Iron Medresa in Sarajevo it will be too late. We must fight them now, in Barcici."
- Hasima Hasanovic, Barcici.

Go Bosnia!
But I don't understand why they lumped Evangelicals with them? :confused:

"Hey, Adnisa stole my car!"
"Oh my God, that *****! Lets get her!"
"Yeah, lets get her!"
(Anonymous background voice: "Her sister's just as bad, get her too!")

Just exploiting the situation to their advantage is all.

Regarding Salfi which is the same as Wahabi as you claim, i bet you have no idea what is Salaf or Salafis so you better ask your Imam before coming in here spreading your hate and ignorance.

Do you know that there is no such a thing as Salafi in these days, and anyone call himself a Salafi is just ignorant and repeat things which s/he couldn't grasp yet.

I pray for you to be guided and return to the right path of Islam.

hey brother , give the man a break ,

i think your reply to him didn't differ much from what you didn't like in his post ,

why can't we just listen to a muslim brother , and try to understand what he is saying ,


i respect you brother , for your patience and decent way of conversation with others , so what's different about the brother , who tried to make some points , although not very decently


i think what this thread is doing is trying to put two things in one package,

the fundamental understanding of islam as in saudi arabia and egypt (which doesn't suit the liberal bosnians ,of course ) ,

together with hatred ,muder , and committing crimes.....

The media has revived two stories. One is about a woman in Sarajevo murdered by her own son because she refused to go to Mosque with him. That man, a Wahhabi, showed up at the mosque covered in blood and told the horrified people there that he'd offered a sacrifice to God.

can any sane person do something like that , no matter how fanatic he is ? :rolleyes:

i hope the media will find more rational stories , for us to believe

Here is the Dispatches programme documenting the spread of Wahhabism in the UK for those who are interested. It is about 50 minutes long.

http://video.google.co.uk/videoplay?docid=2668560761490749816&q=dispatches

It is particularly good because all assertions are immediatly supported by direct video evidence from at least one religious leader's version of Wahhabism. However, it is also a bit shaky on its interpretation of "jihad" and whilst some of the speakers are clearly using it in a distasteful way, it is not at all clear that this is true for all of them and the programme fails to make the distinction (indicating they lack a good understanding of the term).

No my sister, all the famous scholars warned us from those who call themselves salafis or wahabis and we have to deffernitate between the famous and well respected scholars in Saudi Arabia and some small groups who use violence which Saudi Arabia is fighting everyday in her streets.

Read with me what this scholar from Saudi Arabia did say:


Ibn 'Uthaymeen warns the Muslims from the Salafi Group
By Sheikh Ibn al-'Uthaymeen

From his [the Prophet](SAW) statement,​

"Whoever lives amongst you will see much differing, so adhere to my Sunnah",


It can be learnt that if parties (ahzaab) within the ummah emerge in increasing numbers then one should not affiliate himself to a party (hizb). In the past, many groups have appeared; Khawaarij, Mu'tazilah, Jahmiyyah, Shee'ah, even Raafidah.
Then there appeared, later on Ikhwanis, Salafis, Tablighis, and all those like them. Put all of them to one side and take [the path] ahead. Which is what the Prophet SAW guided to. "Adhere to my Sunnah and the Sunnah of the rightly guided caliphs." No doubt, it is obligatory for all Muslims to adopt the way of the salaf as their madhhab, not affiliation to a specific party (hizb) named, "The Salafis". It is obligatory for the Islamic Ummah to adopt the way of the salaf as-salih as their madhhab, not bigotry to those called "the salafis". Pay attention to the difference: There is the way of the salaf, and there is a party (hizb) called "the salafis".

What is the objective? Following the Salaf. Why? The salafi brothers are the closest sect to that which is right, no doubt, but their problem is the same as others, that some of these sects declare others as being misguided, they declare them to be innovators and as being sinners. We don't censure this, if they deserve it, but we censure handling this bid'ah in this way. It is obligatory for the leaders of these sects to get together and say, “Between us is the book of Allah, and the Sunnah of His messenger, so lets us judge by them and not according to desires, opinions and not according to personalities. Everyone makes mistakes and achieves correctness no matter what he has reached with regards to knowledge and worship. Infallibility is [only] in the religion of Islam."

In this hadeeth the Prophet SAW guided to the way in which a person secures himself. He doesn't affiliate him to any sect, only the way of the salaf as-salih, to the Sunnah of our Prophet SAW and the rightly guided caliphs.

Source: http://muttaqun.com/salafiyyah.html


Therefore, i was harsh with him because he was trying to judge others and accuse them of being misguided and away from Islam, and this is what Prophet Mohammed warned us from PROVED BY THIS SAUDI SCHOLAR BASED ON HIS ARTICLE.​

Just because those in Bosnia call themselves Wahbis so that doesn't mean they have any relation with those in Saudi Arabia for instance. I hope you got it by now.​

the fundamental understanding of islam as in saudi arabia and egypt (which doesn't suit the liberal bosnians ,of course ) ,

together with hatred ,muder , and committing crimes.....

My sister, again, whatever they are in Bosnia, we don't know about them and only God knows, but we just have to make sure that just because people read that Wahabism is in Saudi Arabia as wiki or what some other sources claim, so that doesn't mean by anyway that there is any relationship between them and those in Bosnia whatever they are, because we don't know them.


Modern scholars may only come to teach remind us of the instructions of the original Salaf. Among the scholars who follow(ed) the Salaf-us-Salih in belief and deed, insha'Allah, are:
  • Imam Abu Hanifah (150 AH), Al-Awzai (157 AH), Ath-Thawri (161 AH), Al Laith ibn Saad (175 AH), Imam Malik (179 AH), Abdullah ibn al-Mubarak (181 AH), Sufyan ibn Uyainah (198 AH), Imam Ash-Shafi'i (204 AH), Ishaq (238 AH), Imam Ahmed bin Hanbal (241 AH), Al-Bukhari (256 AH), Muslim (261 AH), Abu Dawood (275 AH) and others.​
  • Ibn Taymiyyah (728 AH) and his students, Adh-Dhahabi , Ibn al-Qayyim, Ibn Katheer and others. [All listed lived between 728 and 774 AH]​
  • Muhammed bin 'Abd al-Wahhab [1206 AH] and many of his students​
  • Abdul Aziz bin Baz, Muhammed bin Saalih Utheimeen, Muhammed Naasir-ud-Deen al-Albaani (1332 to 1419 AH) [of our time].​
- The names in Red are the major 4 schools in Islam nowadays and amongest them the one which sister Djamila follow who is Imam Abu Hanifah.

- The names in Blue represents some of the greatest scholars who collected the hadiths.​

- The name in Green is Muhammed bin 'Abd al-Wahhab who taught the real message of Islam for people in Arabia (Saudi Arabia and many countries around it) after they turned to praising idols and graves (yes believe it or not!) so he spread the real message of Islam again and all the scholars of Islam in his time and after him have a great respect for him and for what he did.

The issue at hand is about those who call themselves Wahabis and do bad stuff in that name then when people think of Wahabism, they point their finger to Saudi Arabia while Saudi Arabia is the first one who would condemn these acts, and just because that great scholars was there so that doesn't mean the people in that area are like those who falsely call themselves Wahabis, and it's the same thing with those who call themselves Salafis while they don't follow the real path of the Salaf as the article i posted show.

So, to conclude all that we have to know that ...

1- Wahabis have nothing to do with Saudi Arabia.
2- Salafis have nothing to do with "Dawat-us-Salafiyyah".
3- Islam have nothing to do with those who call themselves Muslims and do bad things in the name of Islam.

If anyone on this board have anything against the great scholar Muhammed bin 'Abd al-Wahhab so let him/her bring any teaching written by him which might have anything to do with violence, i bet you will have none, because people don't know the different between a group who call themselves somthing, and the original teaching itself.


Thanks for your reply sister maro and i hope you got what i mean by now.

Peace and blessing,

TT :)

Yes, these links are working and i just saw the first one and i remembred directly one of the members in here who posted one of these links before few months and we replied to him/her but i'm still looking for my reply not to repeat things. I'll just have to re-write a post about this program if i didn't find that post of mine. I hope i'll find it. :(
 

fullyveiled muslimah

Evil incarnate!
To clarify there are only four mathabs or schools of jurisprudence that are valid. They are Hanafi, Shafi. Maliki, and Hanbali. All of those four are correct ways to practice Islam and are accepted by the vast majority of ulama and muslims as correct. Salafism is not a valid school of thought. I have met those who call themselves salafi, and I don't care much for their ideaologies on deen although they are not criminals. They do however spread a subtle poison of kufr among the ummah....at least where I am. The ones I have been exposed too care little for correct tafsir of Quran or hadith. Most think they can read and understand an ayat or hadith.....in english mind you....... and come away with the correct viewpoint. They appear to be following Islam but when one delves deeper into their ideals, they will find a vast difference between established Islam and what they think Islam is.


In response to whats happening in Bosnia, those people are just plain out criminals. Neither the Prophet nor his companions dealt so roughly and unruly with their own muslims brothers and sisters as has been explained to us here. Not even so roughly with the non-muslims. So what I have read so far is nothing more than sheer criminal activity.

In a side note I don't like the lumping together of a fundamentalist muslim and what different sects tend to do in the name of that. I consider myself a fundie if you will, and do not engage in such activity.
