Ali then said:
"Those of us who were familiar with this group and its origins and teachings knew otherwise. For we had seen that when they attacked Sayyid Qutb, may Allah be merciful with him., the major scholars pointed out the extremism of their view points. There was the letter of Bakr Abu Zaid and then the fatwa of Ibn Jibrin, two members of Saudi Arabia's Hay'a Kibar al-Ulima'. There was also al-Albani's statements and comments on tape which went to the degree of praise regarding Sayyid Qutb's tafsir saying that sections of it were inspired by Allah and that all Salafis should read a certain chapter in Milestones."
[To which Abu Khadijah says]
"My Response: If anyone wants to know the truth of this affair - I sincerely encourage you to look to ********.com about what the scholars say about Syed Qutb. Shaykh Bakr Abu Zayd and Ibn Jibreen's very short words have no basis with the weight of evidence against Syed Qutb and the sayings of the likes of Al-Albaanee, Ibn Baaz, Ibn al-Uthaymeen, Rabee, Muqbil etc.. so again I say: just because someone responds (and in the case of Shaykh Bakr Abu Zayd, just a small pamphlet) to another does'nt mean that the response is correct ! Shaykh Rabee has brought over 700 pages of proof against the methodology of Syed Qutb and gave him the Jarh (criticism) that was just and correct and as I said before Al-Albaanee said that Shaykh Rabee is the Imaam of Jarh (criticism) and tadeel of this age.... So my brothers and sisters justice is hard to find in these times - so look at *******.com and you will find the truth in this affair."
Again look at Abu Khadeejah's "Salafi" manhaj. Notice how he weighs truth and falsehood based on the fact that Bakr Abu Zaid refuted Rabi in a few pages and Rabi then wrote hundreds of pages. Also why do you run away from al-Albani's praise of Sayyid Qutb and his disparging remarks of what Rabi wrote in the section read to him by Adnan Aroor? Why run and hide? |
