THE WAHHABIS' IJTIHADS ARE FALSE
25 - The Wahhabis themselves
say that what the 'ulama' of Ahl as-Sunnat (rahimahum-Allahu ta'ala) have
written is right. Allahu ta'ala makes them, too, tell the
truth. See how that
book praises Ahl as-Sunnat on its 432nd page:
"Rasulullah (sall-Allahu
ta'ala 'alaihi wa sallam) asked Muaz how he was going to judge when he
ordered Muaz to go to Yaman as a judge. 'According to Allahu
ta'ala's Book,' he said.
'What if you cannot find [a solution] in it?' asked Rasulullah. 'I will
look at Rasulullah's sunnat,' he answered. And when Rasulullah asked, 'If
you cannot find it there,
either?' Muaz said, 'I shall do it according to what I understand as a
result of my ijtihad.' Thereupon, Rasulullah said, 'My thanks be to
Allahu ta'ala who bestows
what His Rasul agrees upon His Rasul's judge.' Muaz was one of the most
learned among the Sahabis in the knowledge of fiqh, halal and
haram. Therefore, he
was a profound alim who was able to make ijtihad. It was permissible for
him to judge according to his ijtihad if he could not find any clear
evidence in Allahu ta'ala's
Book and Rasulullah's sunnat. But, today and in the past, there have been
some people so ignorant as not to know the laws in Allahu
ta'ala's Book and His
Rasul's sunnat, but who still think that they can make ijtihad. Shame on
them!"
That author has taken
these lines from the books of great 'ulama' of Ahl as-Sunnat (rahimahum-Allahu
ta'ala) as he has taken all his documentary evidence from
them. There was no one
who wrote heretical ideas before Ibn Taymiyya. He was the first to start
this cult of false concepts. Those who came later went too far in
this line to the extreme
of impetuousness. They interpreted wrongly the invaluable words they quoted
from the books of Ahl as-Sunnat. They said that everybody
should learn Arabic
and make ijtihad. They dissented from the right path and led astray millions
of people. The above quotation refutes their assertions and shows
that ignorant people
like them do not have the ability to make ijtihad, that the conclusions
or meanings they derive are wrong and heretical.
Nowadays, the number
of people who do not believe ijtihad has been on the increase. They say,
"What is the use of madhhabs.
They disunited Muslims. They made the religion difficult. Allah orders
easiness. There is no such things as a 'madhhab' in Islam. They
have been made up later.
I follow the path of as-Sahaba and do not recognize another path."
Such words are made up
by the ignorant of Islam, who now cunningly disseminate them among Muslims.
After quoting correct statements from the 'ulama' of Ahl
as-Sunnat, they add
their lies in as if the quotations going on. The people who see the correct
statements consider all what they read as correct and thus are taken
in. The path of salvation
is that of the Sahabat al-kiram (ridwan-Allahi ta'ala 'alaihim ajmain).
The hadith ash-Sharif narrated by al-Baihaki and written in Kunuz
ad-daqaiq declares,
"My Companions are like the stars in the sky. You follow any one of them,
and you will find the right path." This hadith ash-Sharif shows that
anyone who follows any
one of the Sahabis will attain bliss in both worlds. The hadith ash-Sharif
related by ad-Dailami (rahmat-Allahi 'alaih) declares, "My
companions are good
human beings. May Allahu ta'ala always bestow goodness upon them." Two
hadiths, again related by ad-Dailami, declare, "Do not talk about
the faults of my Companions!"
and, "Muawiya will certainly become a ruler."
From which source will
those who claim that they follow the path of as-Sahabat al-kiram learn
this path? Will they learn from the la-madhhabi who came about a
thousand years after
them? Or will they learn it from the books of those 'ulama' who lived during
the time of and were educated by as-Sahabat al-kiram? The
'ulama' educated by
as-Sahabat al-kiram and the students of those 'ulama' formed the 'ulama'
of the madhhab of Ahl as-Sunnat wal-Jamaat (rahimahum-Allahu
ta'ala). Madhhab means
path. Ahl as-Sunnat wal-Jamaat means the Muslims who follow the path of
Rasulullah and his jamaat, that is, his Companions. The blessed
'ulama' of this path
wrote exactly what they learned from as-Sahabat al-kiram. They did not
write their personal opinions. There is not a single statement in their
books for which they
did not give documents and proofs. The belief of all the four madhhabs
is the same. The path of as-Sahabat al-kiram can only be learned from
the books by the 'ulama'
of Ahl as-Sunnat.
Those who want to be
in the path of as-Sahabat al-kiram (ridwan-Allahu ta'ala 'alaihim ajmain)
have to belong to the madhhab of Ahl as-Sunnat and should avoid
upstart, corrupt movements.
