The Difference between Salafiyyah and the Rest of the Groups



Question: Some people claim that Salafiyyah is one among the other groups of today in the field and that they have the same ruling as all other groups. What do you say about this?

Shaykh al-Fawzân: Just as we said, Salafiyyah is the group that sticks to the truth. It is the one it is obligatory to subscribe to and work with. No other groups shall be considered to belong to the group that calls. For it is contradictory. How shall we follow a group that contradicts the way of Ahl-us-Sunnah wal-Jamâ’ah? The group that contradicts Salafiyyah, contradicts the way of the prophet (sallâ Allâhu ‘alayhi wa sallam) and his companions. To say that Salafiyyah is one of the Islâmic groups is wrong. Salafiyyah is the only group it is obligatory to follow, act in accordance with, join and go out in Jihâd with. It is not allowed for a Muslim to join any other group because it is deviant. Is a human pleased by joining the deviant ones? A Muslim is not pleased by this.

The messenger (sallâ Allâhu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said: “Adhere to my Sunnah and the Sunnah of the rightly guided caliphs.”

The prophet (sallâ Allâhu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said about the saved group: “The one that follows what I and my Companions are follwing today.”

Does one want to be saved without taking the way to the rescue? ‘Are you hoping to be saved without going on its way? The boat does not float on dry land.’
