And do not pursue that of which you have no knowledge.
[Al-Isrāʾ, 17:36]

Splitting is evil, uniting is goodness
Most of the Muslims today are divided
Goodness is in cooperation
The lone sheep is devoured by the wolf
The basis of clinging to the religion is adhering to tawḥīd
The patience of Nūh in calling to tawḥid, like all of the prophets
O Salafīs, stick to the scholars, be strong upon th…
