Shaykh, ʿAllāmah, Imām Rabīʿ bin Hādī on the Fencesitters in Canada in the Fitnah of Muḥammad bin Hādī and His Supporters Who Are Working to Split the Daʿwah and Divide Communities
Shaykh Rabīʿ bin Hādī was asked a series of questions on the night of 25 Dhul-Qaʿdah 1439 by Nāṣir Ḥamīd al- Kanadī—[a brother residing in the city of Madīnah and a graduate of the Islāmic university who also holds a Masters]1—in relation to callers in Canada in the context of the fitnah of Muḥammad bin Hādī. We present a translation of it here along with appropriate notes.
It should be noted that the Salafī Daʿwah has long been established in Toronto since the late 1990s and has grown in strength by Allāh’s tawfīq from that time till today. This is due to the brothers from TROID striving to maintain links with major scholars and with the students and callers in the West. Along the way, there were trials brought to the daʿwah by power-hungry individuals, such as what occurred in the failed coup of 2011. In the current fitnah, there are people like al-ʿUmaysān and Ilyās al-Kanadī who have had plans to either take control of the daʿwah or to split the daʿwah in Toronto. The fitnah of Muḥammad bin Hādī has simply led them to be more bold and open about their previous undeclared plans. They have managed to influence and affect bodies of Salafis in various locations in Canada because those communities do not have a long history of connection to major scholars or the local presence of students who nurtured them upon the principles of the Salafi creed and methdology. As a result, they have become victims in this fitnah and simply been dazzled by characters like al-ʿUmaysān. May Allāh protect them, open their eyes and direct them to the truth, āmīn.
The report below is support and aid for the brothers at TROID against agitators such as al-ʿUmaysān and the ignorant blind-follower Ilyās al-Kanadī. It is an exposition of these people and shines the spotlight on fencesitters who pretend to be impartial but are in reality with Muḥammad bin Hādī and his followers, allying with them and supporting and aiding them in their divisive and harmful activities.
Notes:
1. We mention this so that the reader knows the great lie of the Muṣaʿfiqah when they label those who do not accept Muḥammad bin Hādī’s oppression as “Saʿāfiqah”—even if they have qualifications.

In the Name of Allāh, the Ever Merciful, the Bestower of Mercy
Question: In our city, there a few youth who have rallied around the term "al-Ṣaʿāfiqah", they seek to gather innocent Muslims around this slogan and even create a muṣāfiqah-centric centre, can you explain what the scholars have said about it?

Answered by Ustādh Abū Ḥakīm Bilāl Davis
From the seminar entitled: The Methodology of the Salaf in Times of Fitnah, Toronto, Canada, July 2018
The Fitnah of Scheming Youth Leveraging the term "Ṣaʿāfiqah" in Order to Demonize the Salafī Callers
Our comments on this incendiary upstart:
- This ignorant youth speaks in the arena of the scholars about public matters affecting the Muslims, without insight or wisdom.
- As displayed above, Abū Khadījah narrated that Shaykh Rabīʿ has read the documents presented against known Salafī students of knowledge and shaykhs, and stated there is no proof against these Salafi callers, Shaykh ʿUbayd has said the same.
- This youth claims that “every last one of them heard all of his evidences.” Who is “them”? The scholars? Their students? And he believes that there is evidence for the “falsehood and lies” of the Salafī shaykhs and students of knowledge (who he refers to as Ṣaʿāfiqah), that “every last one of them heard”! This in spite of the fact that Shaykh Rabīʿ and Shaykh ʿUbayd have clearly stated, there is no evidence or proof presented against these shaykhs and students of knowledge that warrants their tabdīʿ (declaring them innovators) and taḍlīl (declaring them misguided). So, O insolent one, who speaks with boldness in front of the Imām of Sunnah and Ḥadīth (Shaykh Rabīʿ), bring those evidences that necessitate “proof” and necessitate warning, and necessitate your insistence of using the term “Ṣaʿāfiqah” upon Ahl al-Sunnah, as if there is a sect that has split off from Ahl al-Sunnah called Ṣaʿāfiqah! Or does he believe there is a sect within Ahl al-Sunnah with that title? If it is claimed that "I am merely following the saying of one scholar (i.e. Shaykh Muḥammad ibn Hādī)", then, this miskīn is nothing more than a blind-follower who calls others to blindly follow. If he knows the proofs “that every last one of them” heard, then present them. Otherwise, he should recant and make tawbah for his fanaticism, his oppression against other Salafis and his labelling of them as a sect (i.e. Ṣaʿāfiqah).
- This miskīn may not know that Shaykh Rabīʿ is an Imām in Ḥadīth and the arena of Jarḥ wa-al-Taʿdīl. He is senior in knowledge and rank to Shaykh Muḥammad ibn Hādī — a fact that is not denied by any of the scholars, and he is 40 years or so older than Shaykh Muḥammad ibn Hādī and is considered as his elder teacher. And it is known from the words of the Prophet (ṣallāllāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam) that he said: “The blessings are with your elders” (Authenticated by al-Albānī in al-Ṣaḥīḥah). As for an ʿĀlim like Shaykh Muḥammad ibn Hādī, then he can be mistaken. An ‘Ālim can be right and also be wrong in his speech, and the other more senior ʿUlamāʾ have highlighted his error. As for this rabble-rousing youngster, he has no right to comment to begin with! So he carries stories without proof, blindly following, throwing Ahl al-Sunnah into a sect known to you as the ṣaʿāfiqah, and tweets that to the world, calling others to follow that?! And all this after knowing the statements of the senior scholars such as Shaykh Rabīʿ and Shaykh ʿUbayd, both of whom have nullified the usage of this term and have rejected the attacks upon the Salafī students of knowledge and shaykhs due to the absence of proof showing their bidʿah or opposition to the Usūl. This youngster has the audacity to speak in the face of that!
- So we say to this youth, Ilyas Aidarus: bring your proof for throwing a body of Ahl al-Sunnah into a newly invented sect and show us this evidence that “every last one” of us (including Shaykh Rabīʿ, Shaykh ʿUbayd and Shaykh ʿAbdullāh al-Bukhārī) have heard!! Otherwise, we await your recantation and tawbah from these evil assertions against Ahl al-Sunnah and their senior scholars.
