ISSUES OF CRITICISM CONCERNING JAMAA'AT-UT-TABLEEGH By
the Subduer of Innovations, Al-’Allaamah Muqbil Ibn Haadee al-Waadi’ee
Translated
by Maaz Qureshi [1] So
as for Jamaa’atut-Tableegh, then in
front of you is what the noble brother, Muhammad Ibn ’Abdul-Wahhaab al-Wassaabee
– may Allaah preserve him - has written.
So he said, [1]:
They act upon weak ahaadeeth.
Rather, they act upon fabricated ahaadeeth
and those that have no basis. [2]:
You will find many innovations amongst them.
Rather, their da’wah (call)
is built upon innovations. The
backbone of their call is khurooj
(going out) with a limit of three days in a week, four months in a year and four
months (at least) in a lifetime. And
they have two excursions (jawlah)
every week: one to the mosque that is prayed in, and the other is a roaming
excursion. And they have two study
circles every day: a circle in the mosque that is prayed in, and one circle at a
house. So they will not be pleased
with a person until he adheres to this. There
is no doubt that this is an innovation in the Religion for which Allaah has sent
down no authority. [3]:
They feel that the call to Tawheed
causes conflict for the Ummah. [4]:
They feel that the call to the Sunnah
causes conflict for the Ummah. [5]:
Their leader says sternly, ‘An innovation that gathers the people together is
better than a Sunnah which divides
the people.’ [6]:
They have enmity towards Ahlus-Sunnah. [7]:
They indirectly and directly deprive the people of beneficial knowledge. [8]:
They feel that there is no salvation for the people, except through their path,
and they strike a parable stating that this (their call) is like the Ark of Nooh;
whosoever boards it is saved and whosoever does not, is destroyed.
And they say, ‘Our da’wah
is like the Ark of Nooh.’ Indeed
I have heard the likes of this from them in Jordan and Yemen. [9]:
They do not give importance to Tawheedul-Uloohiyyah
(Oneness of Allaah in Divinity) and Tawheedul-Asmaa‘
was-Sifaat (Oneness of Allaah in His Names and Attributes). [10]:
Verily they do not prepare for seeking knowledge.
They feel that the time spent in search of knowledge is a waste.
And they possess other than what has been mentioned. Footnotes: [1]
