Imaam Al-Awzaa’ee (rahimahullaah) said:
”A man does not innovate (in the religion) except that he is deprived of his wara (i.e. that fear of Allaah keeping him away from doubtful matters or affairs he fears may ruin his afterlife)” [Siyar 7/125]
Imaam Ibn Hibbaan reported in Al-Majrooheen from Amr Ibn Muhammad An-Naaqib that he heard a man asking Imaam Wakee Ibn Jarraah a question, saying: ”Do you know the hadeeth of Sa-eed Ibn Ubaid At-Tanaaqosee transmitted on the authority of Shabi, about a man who performed hajj for another person and then perform hajj for himself?” Imaam Wakee asked him, saying: ”Who narrated the Hadeeth?” He said: ”It was narrated by Wahb Ibn Ismaa-eel.” So Imaam Wakee said: ”Wahb is a righteous man, but the affair of hadeeth is dependent on knowledge of the condition of its narrators and this has its men.” [End of Quote: This incident was related by Shaikh Abdullaah Bukhaari in At-Taleeqaat Ar-Radiyyah alal Mandhoomah Al-Bayqooniyyah Lesson 2]

Therefore, it is important that we return to the scholars in order to place everyone in their rightful place. Inshaa-Allaah, this is the safeguard from exaggeration or falling short in this affair. And Allaah knows best.
Imaam Ibnul Qayyim (rahimahullaah) said:
”The scent of truthfulness cannot be smelled by a person who flatters himself or others.” [Al-Fawaa-id: 185]

In The Name of Allaah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy
Ibn Rajab (rahimahullaah) stated: The people of innovation and misguidance—whoever (seeks) to resemble the scholars and is not from them, then it is permissible to clarify their ignorance and manifest their blame worthy (affairs), as a warning against following them.
Ustaadh Abdul Waahid (Abu Khadeejah) will deliver a lecture tonight @Masjid Salafi (Birmingham) after Salaatul Maghrib UK time. This lecture will be a clarification of the statements and stances of the scholars towards Yahyhah Al-Hajoori Al-Haddaadi Al-Mubtadi (may Allaah return him to correctness).
In The Name of Allaah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy
Shaikh Abdullaah Al-Bukhaari (may Allaah preserve him) stated recently about the followers of Hajoori Al-Mubtadi: These people are of two types, one who is ignorant of the deviations of al-Hajuri, so he is taught and reminded or the one who knows of his deviations, has been informed of them, but he defends him so is thrown alongside him…. [End of quote: Translated by Ustaadh Amjad Rafiq (may Allaah preserve him)]
This statement of Shaikh Abdullaah Al-Bukhaari is a specific ruling regarding the circumstances of the UK followers and defenders of Al-Hajoori Al-Haddaadi Al-Mubtadi; likewise we find the Shaikh’s teachers amongst the Scholars making similar but general statements regarding innovators and their followers. Al-Allaamah Zaid Bin Hadee Al-Madkhalee (may Allaah preserve him) stated:
Indeed Ahlus Sunnah are people who possess fear of Allaah– they neither make Takfeer, Tafseeq (i.e. declare a person a sinner) and Tabdee (declare a person an innovator) except against the one who deserves it based on the evidences in the Book and the Sunnah and the understanding of the pious predecessors of this Ummah.
Secondly, you should know: The people of desires and misguidance are (categorized into) those who are followed and those who follow; indeed, those followed are the ones who set up the various principles of innovation and they call to their innovation and misguidance, and they will carry their burden of sins and the burden of the sins of those whom they misguided without knowledge, as it is clearly stated in the Qur’aan and the Sunnah. As for the followers of a leader from amongst the people of desires, then in most cases they are of two categories:
The First Category:
Those who possess knowledge, but they harbor evil intentions. So they yield to Satan, desires and the urge of the evil soul. They follow the people of misguidance and oppose the callers to guidance (in that which) Allaah sent His Messenger Muhammad (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) with.
The Second Category:
Their share of knowledge is little, so the people of desires take advantage of them and they become (part) of their group. They convince them that what they call them to is the manifest truth and that what their opponents are upon is falsehood. And they convey to them a huge (number) of affairs that resemble the truth but are falsehood in reality, in order to deceive them and submerge them into misguidance.

Indeed, those who are neither afflicted with confusion nor fanaticism know that the scholars have clarified Hajoori’s evil state of affairs—some have warned against his dangerous mistakes, some have warned against his vile street language, some have warned against his lies and contradictions and some have warned against his extremism and recklessness. However, despite the clear warnings of the scholars– based on the dangerous errors and extremist stances found in his tapes– such as the likes of Shaikh Rabee, Shaikh Ubaid, Shaikh Muhammad Bin Haadee, Shaikh Abdullaah Al-Bukhaari, Shaikh Muhammad Bin Abdul Wahhaab Al-Wasabi etc, the leading Email Shaykh- Hajoori-Fanatic of Manchester still hides behind a computer and sends emails whose contents are filled with nothing more than fanaticism, ignorance and emotional nonsense. He cannot come to terms with the fact that his Haddaadi Mubtadi Shaikh has not offered any sound fundamental principles to justify his positions; rather he only offers empty talk, quackery, vagueness, cover up, agitation, arrogance and rage. This is the reality of the affair; however this particular deluded and self-amazed flag bearer of Hajoori fanaticism seeks to argue with falsehood and emotional nonsense. Indeed, this behaviour is not befitting a man over the age of forty.
Therefore, it must be made known without any ambiguities that the nonsense and fanaticism he displays whilst attacking the students of knowledge, the Salafi centres and some of the Mashaayikh will not be tolerated anymore. This is what every sensible person expects from us. Finally, we remind this Email Shaykh-Hajoori Fanatic that his Haddaadi Mubtadi Shaikh is the cause of the spitting and chaos. Shaikh Zaid Bin Haadee Al-Madkhalee (may Allaah preserve him) said:
“The innovator is the cause for splitting; because splitting is connected to innovation and unity is connected to the Sunnah. The obligation of refuting the Mukhaalif is not lifted from the scholar due to anticipation of harm, unless it is harm he is not able to bear. Then (in this case), Allah does not burden a soul beyond what it can bear. The earth is not devoid of people of knowledge who will carry out refutation against the Mubtadi and the Mukhaalif.” [Al Ajwibah Al Mukhtasar Alaa As-ila Al-Ashrati (Pgs. 43-44)]
We ask Allaah to guide this individual or protect us from his foolishness, delusion, self-amazement and arrogance.
In The Name of Allaah, The Most Merciful The Bestower of Mercy
Al’Amoodee-one of the drivers of Al’Hajoori’s Ghuluww Caravan quoted a poet’s exaggerated praise for his Shaikh in [kashf Al-Ghitaa: 53]- that the one who desires knowledge in its entirety will find it in Dammaaj….. he will find its fountainhead with Yahyah….Yahyah is its fountainhead, for Allaah-The Lord of the Aalaameen-granted him knowledge. Reader: Bear in mind that Al-Hajoori Al-Haddaadi Al-Mubtadi wrote the introduction to this treatise of Al-Amoodee [For further details see page 7 of the refutation Titled At-Tankeel by Ustaadh Abdur-Rahmaan Bin Ahmad Al-Barmakiy (may Allaah protect him)]
Humility of our Salaf
Imaam Ash-Shaafi’ee (rahimahullaah) said: ”I wished that the people learnt this knowledge and attribute none of it to me.” [Jaami-ul Uloom wal-hikam: page: 131]
It was said to Imaam Ahmad (rahimahullaah): ”May Allaah reward you for the good you have (done) for Islaam. He said:”Rather, Allaah has (done) good for me through Islaam. Who am I, and what am I?” [Siyar A’laam Nubulaa: 11/225]
Sufyaan Bin Uyaynah (rahimahullaah) said: ”Indeed, I become angry with myself when I see you come to me, and I say to myself: These people have not come to me, except due to the good thoughts they have about me.” [Hilyatul Awliyaa: 7/285]
We seek Allaah’s protection from ghuluww and we ask Him for humility. And may He (The Most High) return Al-Hajoori and his supporters to the path of correctness
The wise ones said:
Whoever hides knowledge, it is as if he is ignorant of it.
[Jaami Bayaan Al-Ilm: 1/22]
In The Name of Allaah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy
Ibn Abdul-Barr (rahimahullaah) said: ”According to the scholars, Taqleed (i.e. blind adherence) is other than Ittibaa [i.e. adherence to an authentic affair narrated from the Messenger-sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) and obviously with the correct understanding of the Salaf]; because ittibaa is to follow a person based on what is apparent to you of the superiority of his statement and soundness of his school of thought. And Taqleed is that you speak with his statement, whilst you neither know the angle of his speech nor its meaning and you reject speech besides it; Or his mistake is made manifest to you, but you follow him and venerate his opposition, whilst the corruptness of his speech is clear to you. This is what is forbidden to speak with in the religion of Allaah (The Most High)”
[End of Quote: Jaami Bayaan Al-Ilm Wa-Fadlihee: 2/787]
This accusation of blameworthy Taqleed was the same one utilized by the followers of Maribi, Halabi, Maghraawi etc to waterdown and conceal the destructive innovations of their beloved ones and figureheads. So how can those people fishing in the murky waters on behalf of Al-Hajoori prove that those who have taken the correct stances against Al-Hajoori Al-Haddaadi Al-Mubtadi are guilty of blameworthy Taqleed?! Who in his right mind can say that people are blind following Shaikh Rabee, Shaikh Ubaid, Shaikh Wassaabi, Shaikh Abdullaah Al-Bukhaari and the rest of the Mashaayikh of Yemen in this affair of Al-Hajoori Al-Haddaadi Al-Mubtadi?! Are his dangerous mistakes, innovations and haddaadiyyah not manifest?! Has he recanted from all his affairs of misguidance?!
