“Yahya al-Haddadi
worshipped besides Allaah
with Istighaathah”

Written by:
Abu Muhammad Younus bin Muhammad As-
Somaali
‫بسم اهلل الرمحن الرحيم‬
‫الحمد هلل رب العالمين و العاقبة للمتقين و ال عدوان إال على‬

‫الطيبين و أصحابه أجمعين و من اتّبع هداهم و سلك سبيلهم و نهج‬
:‫منهجهم إلى يوم الدين أما بعد‬
On the 14th of Jumaadah Al-Uulaa 1434 which corresponds to the
25th of March 2013, there was some evil speech posted on the
website named ‘Manhaj.com’ by an individual1 who has indeed
exposed and embarrassed himself in this article of his by entering
and delving into affairs which he clearly does not perfect, and as
comes in the well-known line of poetry:

‫تزي بغير ما هو فيه * فضحته شواهد االمتحان‬


ّ ‫من‬
“And whoever guises himself with that which is not within him,
then the exercises of the test will surely expose him”

And that which increased the mud in moisture2 is his affiliation with
the misguided group known as ‘Al-Maktabah As-Salafiyyah’ and it is
not surprising at all that this person would make himself anonymous
and cowardly attack the noble Trustworthy Advisor, Ash-Shaykh, Al-
Muhaddith, Al-Faqeeh, Yahya bin Ali Al-Hajoori (May Allaah protect

This unknown individual has indeed been exposed by his friend Abu Khadeejah to be: Amjad Rafeeq but due
to the fact that Abu Khadeejah is not trustworthy at all, we say Allaah knows best who exactly this deviant
actually is.

This is a terminology used by the Arabs which means: and that which made things worse.
us and him from every evil) and not mention his name, following the
well-known tradition of ‘Al-Maktabah Al-Hizbiyyah’ in hiding behind
names which are wide-ranging but that doesn’t really matter anyway
due to the fact that he can hide himself from the people but he
cannot hide from Allaah, the All-Knowing.

‫ﭽﭪ ﭫ ﭬ ﭭ ﭮ ﭯ ﭰ ﭱ ﭲ ﭳ ﭴ ﭵ‬

٨٠١ :‫النساء‬ ‫ﭶ ﭷ ﭸ ﭹﭺ ﭻ ﭼ ﭽ ﭾ ﭿ ﮀ ﭼ‬
“They may hide from men, but they cannot hide from Allaah, for
He is with them (by His Knowledge), when they plot by night in
words that He does not approve of. And Allaah ever encompasses
what they do.” – Surah An-Nisaa 4: 108

And no matter how hard the people of falsehood strive to plot


against Dammaaj, our Lord Allaah Azza Wa Jal, increases Dammaaj,
its Mashaayikh and students in honour and nobility every time they
seek its downfall, either by utilizing weaponry & artillery such as the
Raafidah or by pens, tongues, wealth and leadership like the
Munaafiqoon, Ahlul-Bida’and whoever is effected by them, so it is
said to these type of people:

‫يا ناطح الجبل العالي ليوهنه * اشفق على الرأس ال تشفق على الجبل‬
“O you who is ramming against the high mountain in order to
weaken it, show compassion to your head and not to the
mountain”
For verily, possessing enmity and hatred for Ahlus-Sunnah Wal-
Jamaa’ah and seeking their downfall and attempting to weaken their
Da’wah by warning from their centres and circles is surely considered
to be from hindering the people away from the Path of Allaah and
Allaah has prepared for those who perform such acts of
disobedience a great torment as He, the Most High said:

‫ﭽﭚ ﭛ ﭜﭝ ﭞ ﭟ ﭠﭡ ﭢ ﭣ ﭤﭼ‬
٤٩ :‫النحل‬

And you may taste the evil (punishment in this world) because of

hindering (men) away from the Path of Allaah and you will have a
great torment.”– Soorah An-Nahl 16: 94

So hindering the people away from the path of Ahlus-Sunnah Wal-


Jamaa’ah is indeed considered to be from hindering the people away
from the path of Allaah, the All Mighty, because Ahlus-Sunnah Wal-
Jamaa’ah are certainly from the Allies of Allaah upon the earth, His
Party and His Army. And whosoever attempts to oppressively harm
and abuse the people of Sunnah, verbally or physically, then he is
indeed at war with Allaah, the Most Severe in punishing!

And they - Ahlus-Sunnah - will surely be the victorious, He, Ta’aala


says:

:‫المائدة‬ ‫ﭽﯳ ﯴ ﯵ ﯶ ﯷ ﯸ ﯹ ﯺ ﯻ ﯼ ﯽ ﯾ ﭼ‬
٦٥

“And whosoever takes Allaah, and His Messenger, and those who
have believed, as Allies, then verily the Party of Allaah will become
the victorious” – Surah Al-Maa’idah 5: 56
And He, Ta’aala said:

٨٧١ :‫الصافات‬ ‫ﭽﯙ ﯚ ﯛ ﯜ ﯝ ﭼ‬


“ And that Our army, they verily would be the victors.” – Surah As-Saaffaat
37: 173

And upon the authority of Abu Hurayrah (Radiyallaahu Anhu), that


the Messenger of Allaah (Salallaahu Alayhi Wa Sallam) said:

“Verily Allaah, Azza Wa Jal, has said: “Whosoever portrays hostility


for an Ally of Mine, then I shall declare war against him!!”– Reported by
Al-Bukhaari (6502)

So it is none other than our Lord, Allaah aiding and defending His
Allies such as the people of Sunnah from the plots and schemes of
those who oppose and deceive them and that is why they are always
triumphant against the people of falsehood until the Last Hour is
established, so being in conflict with Ahlus-Sunnah and plotting
against them will never ever harm them at all as long as they
continue to be patient upon righteousness and piety.

As Allaah, Azza Wa Jal, said:

‫ﭽ ﯩ ﯪ ﯫ ﯬ ﯭ ﯮ ﯯﯰ ﯱ ﯲ ﯳ‬

٨٢٠ :‫آل عمران‬ ‫ﯴﯵ ﯶ ﭼ‬


“But if you remain patient and have piety, then their plots will not
harm you at all. Verily, Allaah encompasses all that they do.” – Soorah
Aal Imraan 3: 120

And upon the authority of Thawbaan (Radiyallaahu Anhu) that the


Messenger of Allaah (Salallaahu Alayhi Wa Sallam) said:
“There will not cease to be a group from my nation triumphant
upon the truth, they are not harmed by those that deceive them
until the Command of Allaah comes while they are upon that.” –
Reported by Muslim (1920)

And our righteous predecessors have indeed clarified to us


numerous times that this triumphant and victorious group are none
other than: Ahlus-Sunnah Wal-Jamaa’ah.

And from those who are without a shadow of a doubt from the best
of Ahlus-Sunnah Wal-Jamaa’ah in these modern-day times are: the
Salafi brothers and sisters in Dammaaj, those individuals who
diligently stand up to defend and protect the purified Sharee’ah of
Allaah, Tabaaraka Wa Ta’aala, physically and verbally on a daily basis
from the plots and schemes of the party of Shaytaan, may Allaah aid
them and keep their feet firm, Aameen.

And this is fact not friction, reality and not imaginary at all, for by
Allaah, due to that which they are in from righteousness & piety and
knowledge & action, Allaah has indeed elevated their ranks to an
extremely high platform and has certainly bestowed for them love
and fondness in many of the hearts of the righteous all over the
world and this is nothing but the promise of Allaah taking place in
front of our very own eyes, He, the Most High says:

‫ﭽ ﭑ ﭒ ﭓ ﭔﭕ ﭖ ﭗ ﭘ ﭙ‬

٤٥ :‫مريم‬ ‫ﭚﭼ‬
“Verily, those who believe and work deeds of righteousness, the
Most Merciful (Allaah) will bestow love for them (in the hearts of
the believers).”- Surah Maryam 19: 96
For verily, we unceasingly witness multitudes of people travelling
thousands & thousands of miles from countries all over the world in
order to benefit from the knowledge that is found here in Dammaaj,
to the extent that the crowdedness of the students has lead the
houses for rent here in Dammaaj to become almost impossible to
find! And all praise is due to Allaah.

So a person who truly follows the Sunnah of Abil-Qaasim (Salallaahu


Alayhi Wa Sallam) would support and aid the Salafis in Dammaaj and
would never think of portraying enmity for a place like Dammaaj
especially when the filthy disbelievers are plotting night and day to
seek its destruction by any means necessary but nevertheless, Allaah
alone is the One who the believers put their trust in.

So, it is not surprising that a great place like Dammaaj, where the
party of Shaytaan are not successful therein3 would be attacked by
the criminals amongst the mankind and jinn with adorned
fabrications, for verily Allaah has wisely appointed for every prophet
an enemy from the criminals standing in front of his path to call the
people to Allaah, as Allaah said:

‫ﭽﭩ ﭪ ﭫ ﭬ ﭭ ﭮ ﭯ ﭰ ﭱ ﭲ‬

‫ﭳ ﭴ ﭵ ﭶ ﭷﭸ ﭹ ﭺ ﭻ ﭼ ﭽﭾ ﭿ ﮀ ﮁ‬

٨٨٢ :‫األنعام‬ ‫ﮂﭼ‬


“And so We have appointed for every Prophet enemies, devils from
amongst the mankind and jinns, inspiring one another with
decorated speech as a delusion. If your Lord had so willed, they
3
And this is of course by the Permission and Grace of Allaah, the All-Wise.
would not have done it, so leave them alone with their
fabrications.”– Surah Al-An’aam 6: 112

But that which is sad and appalling is somebody who was once
known to be Salafi would one day turn his back and oppressively
warn against this lighthouse of knowledge after once praising it and
encouraging the people to study there, and this is surely from the
signs of true misguidance.

Hudayfah bin Al-Yamaan (Radiyallaahu Anhu) said:

“Know that misguidance, the true misguidance is: that you enjoin
that which he used to forbid and that you forbid that which you
used to enjoin and beware of Talawwun4 for verily the Religion of
Allaah is one.” – Reported by Abdur-Razzaaq in his ‘Musannaf’ #20454, Printed by:
‘Mu’assasatuAr-Risaalah’

Changeable capricious shifting

And this Talawwun that we witness from more than one person was
of course initiated and inspired by none-other than the cursed
Shaytaan himself, for verily he is the one who whispered with a
adorning voice into the ears of those who claim Salafiyyah and
casted envy and jealousy into their breasts for the Da’wah of
Dammaaj and beautified for them to portray enmity and hatred for
Dammaaj after they themselves once loved it.

So it is the out casted Shaytaan that makes his footsteps slippery for
those who tread his path and that is why we find those people who
claim Salafiyyah slithering and loosing balance when they start to
speak repulsively against Dammaaj and this is all due to them
following the greasy footsteps of Iblees – may Allaah curse him - and

4
Being capricious and constantly shifting and changing from one ideology to another without insight.
it would have been better for them if they only done that which they
were admonished with:

‫ﭽ ﭑ ﭒ ﭓ ﭔ ﭕ ﭖ ﭗ ﭘﭙ ﭚ ﭛ ﭜ‬

٢٨ :‫النور‬ ‫ﭝ ﭞ ﭟ ﭠ ﭡﭢ ﭼ‬
“O you who believe! Follow not the footsteps of Shaytaan, and
whosoever follows the footsteps of Shaytaan, then verily he
commands with indecency and evil deeds” – Surah An-Noor 24: 21

And from those who have slipped and injured himself when
recklessly following the slippery footsteps of Shaytaan is: this
individual and here is the link for his speech:

….

Subhaan’Allaah! I do not say except what the father of Yusuf,


Ya’qoob (Alayhimaa As-Salaam) said:

٨١ :‫يوسف‬ ‫ﭽﮍﮎ ﮏ ﮐ ﮑ ﮒ ﭼ‬
“And Allaah is the One sought Aid against that which you describe.”
– Surah Yusuf 12: 18

For indeed, Allaah’s Aid is sought to shed some light to the darkness
of this speech by exposing its filth and as it is known that defending
the truth and its people is from the most virtuous of actions,
especially in the times of strangeness and fitnah.

So this is why I ask Allaah, Azza Wa Jal, that He protects my face


from the hell-fire by this refutation and distances my face far away
from it, for verily it has come upon the authority of Abu Ad-Dardaa
(Radiyallaahu Anhu) that the Messenger of Allaah (Salallaahu Alayhi
Wa Sallam) said:

“Whoever defends the honour of his (Muslim) brother, Allaah will


protect his face from the hell-fire on the Day of Resurrection”–
Reported by At-Tirmidhee in his ‘Sunan’ (1931) and Shaykh Al-Albaani declared it to be ‘Saheeh’

And if this is pertaining to your average Muslim brother, that if you


defend his honour and shield it from any false claims and
accusations, that Allaah, Azza Wa Jal, will secure and guard your face
from the blazing hell-fire on the Day of Resurrection, then how about
defending the honour of a scholar who possess great amount of
knowledge and piety, and has devoted himself to serve Islam and the
Muslims?!

So I therefore write this refutation against the countless oppressions


of this anonymous person seeking by it the Honourable Face of
Allaah, Azza Wa Jal and hoping that by it He protects my face from
the hell-fire on “the Day whereon neither wealth nor children will
be of any benefit, except for the one who comes to Allaah with a
clean heart”- Surah Ash-Shu’uraa 26: 88-89

“"Why do you mix the truth with falsehood and


conceal the truth while you know?"” – Surah Aal Imraan 3: 71
The first thing that I sense from this malicious and destructive
sentence is that this character is cunningly trying to attract the minds
of the innocent and naive by making the headline of his false speech
-Yahya al-Haddadi Worshipped Besides Allaah With
Istighaathah- so that the reader can automatically become alert
and attentive using the famous methodology of the disbelieving
news reporters in blowing issues out of proportion and exaggerating
in their headlines in order to attract attention, WAllaahul-Musta’aan.

And this oppressor in his headline has indeed imitated the Jews and
the Christians in mixing the truth with falsehood and not clarifying
the reality of affairs and the actuality of issues in order to misguide
the naïve and the innocent into thinking that Shaykh Yahya has
become ‘a living idol worshipped besides Allaah’!

And by this, he has indeed originated something that By Allaah; we


haven’t heard any of the human devils such as the filthy Raafidah,
those who do not even possess half a mustard seed of Imaan in
their hearts say this about Shaykh Yahya! So this unknown
oppressor has certainly preceded the Raafidah in attacking Shaykh
Yahya and his students with this specific insult and how despicable is
it for somebody who claims Salafiyyah to precede and outstrip the
Raafidah in attacking Ahlus-Sunnah Wal-Jamaa’ah?!!

Furthermore, that which I strongly believe – and Allaah knows best -


is that this misguided person hasn’t even put the same the effort
that he did in regards to Shaykh Yahya to clarify the dangers of the
Raafidah because what else can you expect from the victims of
Hizbiyyah?

For verily, this is what Hizbiyyah does to its victims, it causes them to
be busy with their own Muslim brothers more than their open
enemies such as the disbelievers as Al-Imaam Muqbil bin Haadi Al-
Waadi’ee (Rahimahullaah) mentioned about Hizbiyyah:

“It has certainly distorted the Muslim youth and wasted their time,
and divided their unity and made them into groups and sects, and
busied the Muslims with themselves instead of their enemies”–
‘Ghaaratul-Ashrita’ Vol. 1, Page: 15

And that which causes great suspicion is the fact that this mysterious
person decided to introduce this into the English speaking world by
working hard and taking his time to translate this NOW, when this
took place many years ago, I only wonder but why?

Or did he already believe this wicked belief and hold this astray
opinion about Shaykh Yahya but he only felt brave enough to speak
‘the truth’ when it recently became the ‘new trend’ for every Fullaan
and ‘Allaan6 to warn against Dammaaj and to say absolutely
whatever he feels like about it, its Shaykh and students due to the
recent speech of Shaykh Rabee’?

And with Allaah alone is the Final Meeting and Return.

“Fullaan and ‘Allaan” is similar to: Tom, Dick and Harry.
The Reality of Shaykh Yahya Being
‘Worshipped With Istighaathah’

Allaah, Azza Wa Jal, says in His Noble Book:

‫ﭽﭑ ﭒ ﭓ ﭔ ﭕ ﭖ ﭗ ﭘ ﭙ ﭚ‬

٧٨ :‫آل عمران‬ ‫ﭛﭼ‬

“O People of the Book! Why do you mix the truth with


falsehood and conceal the truth while you know?"” –
Surah Aal Imraan 3: 71

‫ﭽ ﭰ ﭱ ﭲ ﭳ ﭴ ﭵ ﭶ ﭼ إلى قوله تعالى ﭽ ﮒ‬

٩٢ :‫البقرة‬ ‫ﮓﮔﮕ ﮖﮗ ﮘ ﮙ ﮚ ﭼ‬

O Children of Israel! Remember My Favor which I


bestowed upon you… – until His Saying - mix not truth with
falsehood, nor conceal the truth while you know.” –
Surah Al-Baqarah 2: 42

Indeed, from the common ways of the people of the early


generations, from those that were given the Book and then became
misguided and rebellious is: to mix the truth with falsehood and to
conceal the truth whilst knowing the reality of the affairs and the
actuality of the issues like they know their own children, all due to
their severe hatred for the truth and their solid envy for it.

So therefore deception and deceit is originally from the mannerisms


of the disbelievers and not of those who believe in Allaah and the
Last Day and upon Allaah they put their trust.

And then you have the people of desires from the innovators and the
evil sinners of this Islamic Nation following the ways and the
teachings of the people of the Book and this is exactly what the
Messenger (Salallaahu Alayhi Wa Sallam) informed and warned us of.

Upon the authority of Abu Sa’eed Al-Khudri (Radiyallaahu Anhu) that


the Messenger of Allaah (Salallaahu Alayhi Wa Sallam) said:

“You shall certainly follow the path of those that came before you,
hand span by hand span, forearm by forearm, to the extent that
even if they were to enter the hole of a lizard you would surely
follow them.”

We said: ‘O Messenger of Allaah, are they the Jews and the


Christians?’

He said: “Who else?” – Reported by Muslim (6723)

And our noble Shaykh, Al-Faqeeh, Yahya bin Ali Al-Hajoori


(Hafidhahullaah) commented on this hadeeth:

“And this is information which comprises of a prohibition from the


Messenger of Allaah (Salallaahu Alayhi Wa Sallam) against
following the ways of the Jews and the Christians and likewise the
path of the rest of the Mushrikeen and this is Haraam.” – Our lesson with
him in Sahih Muslim
So the Messenger (Salallaahu Alayhi Wa Sallam) didn’t simply just
inform us of this taking place but rather he warned and prohibited us
from following the path of the people of the Book, but those who
possess sicknesses in their hearts refuse except to turn in pride like
they heard not, as if there were deafness in their ear!

That is why that deceit, deception and trickery has become from the
fixed pillars of Hizbiyyah as Al-Imaam Al-Waadi’ee (Rahimahullaah)
clarified.

Now, from those that have certainly followed the ways of the early
generations in mixing the truth with false and concealing the reality
of affairs is this misguided oppressor by him mentioning that Shaykh
Yahya is ‘worshipped besides Allaah with Istighaathah’ and this is
indeed from the worst types of deception and trickery which is from
the fixed pillars of Hizbiyyah that this oppressor has reclined his back
against and from the traits of those who have evoked the Wrath of
Allaah!

For verily, this liar is making it seem as if Shaykh Yahya is worshipped


by his students in Dammaaj and this is exactly what an liar does, as
Al-Imaam Ibnul-Qayyim (Rahimhullaah) mentioned:

“For verily, the liar makes the non-existing seem existing and the
existing seem non-existing and makes the truth seem false and
false seem true and makes good seem evil and the evil seem good.”
– ‘Al-Fawaa’id’ – Page: 260

And the reality of this affair is:

That a student7 who wanted to state his sadness for the departure of
his Shaykh to Hajj in some lines of poetry that he wrote decided to

7
And then sooner or later he became from those who left Dammaaj and lost their respect for their
teacher and started to become ungrateful to him, joining the ranks of Abdur-Rahman Al-Adani and
his notorious group, Wallaahul-Musta’aan.
come up to the microphone and read his poem in front of the Shaykh
and students to the extent that he mentioned that the departure of
the Shaykh has brought tears to his eyes.

So from that which he read:

“And no soon had the caravan of Yahya disappeared from sight,


travelling to Hajj, except that I beseeched him (with Istighaathah),
calling out "O Shaykh, reach me!" For indeed I am stirred by grief. I
hold back my tears because your departure has made me cry.”8

Now the mistake of this poet in his lines of poetry is obvious, it is him
beseeching Shaykh Yahya with Istighaathah calling out: ‘O Shaykh,
reach me’ after he himself had already mentioned that the caravan
of the Shaykh had disappeared from sight and of course this is a
mistake which consists of seeking rescue from he who the conditions
of the permissibility of that is not found within him and it is clearly
Shirk in worship.

But that which seems apparent to me is: that this person of course
didn’t intend to worship Shaykh Yahya and take him as ‘a partner
besides Allaah’ but regardless of what this person meant and what
his intention was, the main question is:

Were these lines of poetry kept silent about or was they criticized?

Answer:
Our trustworthy brother, Abu Haaroon Muhammad bin Abdi-Noor
As-Somaali (Hafidhahullaah) informed me that he himself was
present at the time and he narrated to me that the Shaykh became
very angry and told the poet harshly:

8
This translation belongs to this unknown oppressor.
“Fear Allaah My Brother! And upon you is to
repent to Allaah!!”

And know, O dear reader, that these lines of poetry were also
criticized by the noble Shaykh, Abdul-Hameed Al-Hajoori
(Hafidhahullaah) as he himself informed us many times, he says:

“I stood up to him (the poet) at the time he said it by


the Praise of Allaah and if the pillars of the masjid
could speak they would have spoken!!
And I refuted him for saying this statement and for
this action by the praise of Allaah, for verily we are students of
knowledge, we know what the Salafi creed is, we know what
extremism and what Tamayyu’is (watering-down, softening the religion etc…).” –
Q&A with Daarul-Ihsaan in their first conference.

So know, O dear reader, that our noble Shaykh would never allow
such thing to be said about him or about anybody else in front of him
(Inshaa’Allah) and remain silent about it9 especially when Shaykh
Yahya is firmly grounded in the issues of Tawheed more than this
unknown oppressor, as somebody who knows him better than both
of us said and recognized that about him many years ago.

Al-Imaam Muqbil bin Haadi Al-Waadi’ee (Rahimahullaah) mentioned


about Shaykh Yahya:

“He is from those who have memorized the Quran, and he has
benefitted in various subjects and I have listened to some of his

9
And this if he was alert and attentive at the time and if he didn’t hear it, than his students would certainly not
remain quiet about it, inshaa’Allah.
lessons which confirm his talent and he is strong in Tawheed and
he has a Tahqeeq on ‘Islaah Al-Mujtma’ authored by Al-Bayhaani
and he has refuted Zindaani in issues of Tawheed and he has
other treatises”– Autobiography of Shaykh Muqbi Page 63, #684

So Shaykh Yahya is well-aquatinted with that which is Shirk better


than this oppressive liar and he is well-aquatinted with that which is
from the terminologies of the Sufi Grave-worshippers especially
when he refuted them in many different books that he authored to
refute the Soofiyyah.

So I ask you, o dear reader, is it then from justice that this misguided
oppressor mentions that Shaykh Yahya is worshipped besides Allaah
and he doesn’t even mention that Shaykh Yahya refuted these lines
of poetry?

If he says: ‘I didn’t know about this’

Then I say:

‫ﭽﯯ ﯰ ﯱ ﯲ ﯳ ﯴ ﯵﯶ ﯷ ﯸ ﯹ ﯺ ﯻ ﯼ ﯽ‬

‘I did know about this’

The Righteous and Pious Are Not to Be
Blamed For Their Sins of Their People

And the one who Allaah, Azza Wa Jal, has blessed with a sound
intellect supported alongside a sound Aqeedah will realize that if
Shaykh Yahya was actually ‘worshipped’ and taken as a partner
besides Allaah, that this doesn’t ruin his character anyway nor make
him blameworthy unless he is satisfied with this but the reality begs
to differ, therefore indicating that the sin of this false worship– if it
was to occur - is not upon the virtuous Shaykh as Allaah Ta’aala says:

٨٥٩ :‫األنعام‬ ‫ﭽﯱ ﯲ ﯳ ﯴ ﯵ ﯶﯷ ﯸ ﯹ ﯺ ﯻ ﯼﯽ ﭼ‬


“No person earns any sin except against himself only, and no bearer
of burdens shall bear the burden of another.” – Surah Al-An’aam: 6:164

Al-Imaam Ibn Katheer (Rahimahullah) commented on this verse:

“And this is informing about the reality of the Day of Resurrection,


about the recompensing of Allaah, and about his judgement and
justice that: souls will only be recompensed for their own actions, if
its good then good and if its evil then evil and that none will bear
the sin of another person and this is from the Justice of Allaah, the
Most High.”

For verily, the one who merely reads throughout the Qur’an or even
studied ‘Qawaaidul-Arba’ah’ would come to acknowledge that the
even the righteous and pious slaves of Allaah such as Prophet ‘Eesaa
bin Maryam (Alayhimaas-Salaam), or the honourable Angels or other
different types of the creation of Allaah such as the sun, the moon,
or even the trees and the stones have been worshipped besides
Allaah, Azza Wa Jal, for centuries and continually are and Allaah’s
Refuge is sought!

And on the Day of Judgement, Allaah, the All Mighty will certainly
gather those worshipped and the worshippers and say to them all:
‫ﭽﮉ ﮊ ﮋ ﮌ ﮍ ﮎ ﮏ ﮐ ﮑ ﮒ‬

‫ﮓ ﮔ ﮕ ﮖ ﮗﮘ ﮙ ﮚﮛ ﮜ ﮝ ﮞ‬

٨١ - ٨٧ :‫الفرقان‬ ‫ﮫ ﮬﮭﮮﮯ ﭼ‬
“And on the Day when He will gather them together and that which
they worship besides Allaah. He will say: "Was it you who misled
My slaves or did they themselves go astray from the Right Path?"
They will say: "Glorified be You! It was not for us to take any
Auliyaa' (Protectors, Helpers, etc.) besides You, but You gave them
and their fathers comfort till they forgot the warning, and became a
lost people.” – Surah Al-Furqaan: 17-18

Al-Imaam Muhammad Ameen Ash-Shanqeeti (Rahimahullaah)


elaborates about what those people that were worshipped besides
Allaah will say:

“(They will say :) It is not for the creation to worship anyone besides
You (O Allaah), it is not for us nor for them, for verily we did not call
them to do that, but rather they done this from their own selves
without us ordering them to do so and we are absolutely free from
them and their worship!” – ‘Adwaa Al-Bayaan’ Page: 201, Vol. 6

Al-Imaam Abdur-Rahman bin Naasir As-Sa’dee (Rahimahullaah) said:


“(They will say :) Glory is to You (O Allaah)!! That we are taken as
Awliyaa (Protectors, helpers, idols…) besides You” – His tafseer‘Tayseer Al-
Kareem Ar-Rahmaan’ under this verse.

‘EesaaBin Maryam (Alayhimaa As-Salaam):

‫ﭽﭼ ﭽ ﭾ ﭿ ﮀ ﮁ ﮂ ﮃ ﮄ ﮅ ﮆ ﮇ‬

‫ﮈ ﮉ ﮊﮋ ﮌ ﮍ ﮎ ﮏ ﮐ ﮑ ﮒ ﮓ ﮔ ﮕ ﮖﮗ ﮘ ﮙ‬

٨٨٧ - ٨٨٥ :‫المائدة‬

“And (remember) when Allaah will say (on the Day of


Resurrection): "O ‘Eesaa, son of Maryam! Did you say to the
people: ‘take me and my mother as two gods besides Allaah’

"He will say: "Glory is to You! It was not for me to say what I had no
right of saying. If I had said such a thing, then You
havecertainlyknown it. You know what is in my inner self and I do
not know what is in Yours, truly You, only You, are the All-Knower
of all that is hidden and unseen. Never did I say to them except
what You commanded me to say: 'Worship Allaah, my Lord and
your Lord…” – Surah Al-Maa’idah 5: 116-117

So ‘Eesaa (Alayhis-Salaam), that great messenger and honourable


prophet was taken as a partner besides Allaah and still is, and in
numerous places in the Qur’an we find that Allaah informs us of the
Da’wah of ‘Eesaa to his nation, that it was a da’wah purely to
Tawheed, to the worship of Allaah alone:

‫ﭽﭦ ﭧ ﭨ ﭩ ﭪ ﭫ ﭬ ﭭ ﭮ ﭯﭰ ﭱ‬

٧٢ :‫المائدة‬ ‫ﭲ ﭳ ﭴ ﭵ ﭶ ﭷﭸﭹ ﭼ‬
“Those that say: "Allaah is the Messiah, son of Maryam (‘Eesaa)"
have surely disbelieved. But the Messiah (‘Eesaa) said:

"O Children of Israel! Worship Allaah alone, my Lord and your


Lord."”– Surah Al-Maa’idah 5: 72

١٥ :‫مريم‬ ‫ﭽ ﯮ ﯯ ﯰ ﯱ ﯲﯳ ﯴ ﯵ ﯶ ﯷ ﭼ‬
"And verily Allaah is my Lord and your Lord. So worship Him alone,
this is the Straight Path.” – Surah Maryam 19: 36

‫ﭽﭦ ﭧ ﭨ ﭩ ﭪ ﭫ ﭬ ﭭ ﭮ ﭯ ﭰ‬

‫ﭱ ﭲ ﭳﭴ ﭵ ﭶ ﭷ ﭸ ﭹ ﭺ ﭻ ﭼ ﭽ ﭾﭿ‬

٥٩ - ٥١ :‫الزخرف‬ ‫ﮀ ﮁﮂ ﮃ ﭼ‬
“And when ‘Eesaa came with clear Proofs, he said: "I have come to
you with Al-Hikmah (Prophet hood), and in order to make clear to
you some of the (points) in which you differ, therefore fear Allaah
and obey me. Verily, Allaah! He is my Lord and your Lord. So
worship Him alone, this is the Straight Path." – Surah Az-Zukhruf 43: 63-64

‫ﭽﮫ ﮬ ﮭ ﮮ ﮯ ﮰ ﮱ ﯓ ﯔ ﯕ‬

‫ﯖﯗﯘﯙ ﯚ ﯛ ﯜ ﯝ ﯞﯟ ﯠ ﯡ‬

٦٨ - ٦٠ :‫آل عمران‬ ‫ﯢ ﯣ ﯤ ﯥﯦ ﯧ ﯨ ﯩ ﯪ ﭼ‬
“And I have come confirming that which was before me of the
Tawrah, and to make lawful for you part of what was forbidden
upon you, and I have come to you with a proof from your Lord. So
fear Allaah and obey me. Truly! Allaah is my Lord and your Lord, so
worship Him alone, this is the Straight Path.”– Surah AalImraan 3: 50-51

This is the true call and message of ‘Eesaa (Alayhis-Salaam).

And alongside this, it has become widespread and known how he has
then become worshipped besides Allaah and taken as a partner
besides Him and falsely claimed that he is the Son of Allaah! And
some even saying that He is Allaah!! Exalted is Allaah from what they
say!

He Prophet ‘Eesaa, is being called night and day, and constantly


being asked for provision and forgiveness, as well as aid and
Istighaathah but do we find our Lord, Azza Wa Jal, our Prophet
Muhammad (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wa Sallam) rebuking him for that at
all?!

Rather, Shaykhul-Islaam Ibn Taymiyyah (Rahimahullaah) said:


“So if some of them were mistaken when narrating upon him
(‘Eesaa) or mistaken in the explanation of his speech or even
deliberately intending to distort his Religion then there is no
absolutely no sin upon the Maseeh (‘Eesaa) with regards to that
and verily he is only a messenger, upon him is just to give a clear
conveyance” – ‘Al-Jawaab As-Saheeh‘ Vol. 4Page: 31-21

The Angels:
And likewise, the noble Angels who are a great and a magnificent
creation of Allaah, as He Ta’aala informed us about them:

‫ﭽﮰ ﮱ ﯓ ﯔ ﯕ ﯖ ﯗ ﯘ ﯙ ﯚ‬
‫ﯛ ﯜﯝ ﯞﯟﯠ ﯡﯢﯣ ﯤ‬
٧ :‫غافر‬ ‫ﯥ ﯦﯧﯨ ﯩ ﯪ ﯫ ﯬ ﭼ‬

“Those (angels) who bear the Throne (of Allaah) and those around
it glorify the praises of their Lord, and believe in Him, and ask
forgiveness for those who believe (saying):

"Our Lord! You comprehend all things in mercy and knowledge, so


forgive those who repent and follow Your Path, and save them
from the torment of the blazing Fire!” – Surah Al-Ghaafir 40: 7

‫ﭽﮧ ﮨ ﮩ ﮪ ﮫ ﮬ ﮭ ﮮ ﮯ ﮰ‬
٢٠ – ٨٤ :‫األنبياء‬ ‫ﮱﯓ ﯔﯕ ﯖ ﭼ‬
“And those who are near Him (i.e. the angels) are not too proud to
worship Him, nor do they get exhausted (of His worship). They (i.e.
the angels) glorify His Praises night and day, and they never slacken
to do so.” – Surah Al-Anbiyaa 21: 19-20

‫ﭽﯬﯭ ﯮ ﯯ ﯰ ﯱ ﯲ ﯳ ﯴ ﯵ‬
‫ﯶ ﯷ ﯸ ﯹﭼ‬
“ …then there are those who are with your Lord (angels) glorifying
Him night and day, and never are they tired.” – Surah Fussilat 41: 38

And Allaah has also informed us that they are honourable and very
obedient towards Him and they do not disobey Allaah and they do as
they are commanded, Allaah says:

٨٥ - ٨٦ :‫عبس‬ ‫ﭽﮊ ﮋ ﮌ ﮍ ﮎ ﮏ ﭼ‬
“… In the hands of scribes (angels), honourable and obedient.” - Surah
Abasa 80: 15-16

‫ﭽﭿ ﮀ ﮁ ﮂ ﮃ ﮄ ﮅ ﮆ ﮇ ﮈ ﮉ ﭼ‬
٨٢ - ٨٠ :‫االنفطار‬

“But verily, there are keepers (appointed angels) over you, they are
honourable and recording (your deeds), they know all that you do” –
Surah Al-Infitaar 82: 10-12
‫ﭽﯛ ﯜ ﯝ ﯞ ﯟ ﯠ ﯡ ﯢ ﯣ ﯤ‬

‫ﯥﯦ ﯧ ﯨ ﯩﯪ ﯫ ﯬ ﯭﯮ ﯯﯰ‬

٥ :‫التحريم‬ ‫ﯱﭼ‬
“O you who believe! Ward off from yourselves and your families a
Fire (Hell) whose fuel is men and stones, which over it are
(appointed) angels who are stern and severe, they do not disobey
Allaah in that which He orders them, and they do that which they
are commanded.” – Surah At-Tahreem 66: 6

Allaah, Azza Wa Jal, considered their bear witnessing and mentioned


it alongside His Bear Witnessing that none has the right to be
worshipped in truth except Allaah and this alone is sufficient to
prove to their virtue, Allaah says:

‫ﭽﭤ ﭥ ﭦ ﭧ ﭨ ﭩ ﭪﭫ ﭬ ﭭ ﭮ ﭯﭰ ﭱ‬

٨١ :‫آل عمران‬ ‫ﭲ ﭳ ﭴ ﭵﭶ ﭷ ﭼ‬
“ Allaah bears witness that none has the right to be worshipped but
Him, and so do the angels and those who possess knowledge…”–
Surah AalImraan 3: 18

And after this all, you find many people worshipping them and
making them partners with Allaah in His worship, invoking them and
seeking refuge with them and worshipping them with Istighaathah,
and even some claim that they are the daughters of Allaah!!And
exalted is Allaah from that which they claim!

But on the Day of Judgement they will certainly declare themselves


innocent and free from this false worship, as Allaah informs us in His
Book:

‫ﭽﭑ ﭒ ﭓ ﭔ ﭕ ﭖ ﭗ ﭘ ﭙ ﭚ‬

‫ﭛ ﭜ ﭝ ﭞ ﭟ ﭠ ﭡﭢ ﭣ ﭤ ﭥ ﭦﭧ‬

٩٨ - ٩٠ :‫سبأ‬ ‫ﭨ ﭩﭪﭫ ﭼ‬
“And (remember) the Day when He will gather them all together,
and then He will say to the angels: "Was it you that these people
used to worship?"

They (angels) will say: "Glorified be You! You are our Wali (Lord)
instead of them. Nay, but they used to worship the jinn; most of
them were believers in them." – Surah Saba34: 40-41

Shaykul-Islam Ibn Taymiyah (Rahimahullaah)said:

“And the Angels do not help them (the worshippers) upon Shirk,
not in their (worshippers) lifetime nor at time of death, and they
are not pleased with it (that they are worshipped) at all” – ‘Majmoo’ Al-
Fataawa’ Page: 157, Vol.1

So I ask yet again, do we find our Lord, Azza Wa Jal, our Prophet
Muhammad (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wa Sallam) rebuking the noble angels
for that at all?!
Natural creations of Allaah and mere objects:

And likewise, not even the natural creation of Allaah were safe from
being worshipped besides Allaah, mere objects and statues that
cannot benefit nor harm except if Allaah wills, were taken as
partners besides Allaah, Allaahul-Musta’aan, as Allaah informs us in
the Qur’an:

‫ﭽﭝ ﭞ ﭟ ﭠ ﭡ ﭢ ﭣ ﭤ ﭥﭦ‬

“And they worship besides Allaah things that do not harm them,

And upon the authority of Abdullah bin Mas’ood (Radiyallaahu Anhu)
that the Messenger of Allaah (Salallaahu Alayhi Wa Sallam) entered
Makkah and there were three hundred and sixty idols around the
Ka’bah. He then started striking them with a stick in his hand whilst
saying:

١٨ :‫اإلسراء‬ ‫ﭽ ﮙ ﮚ ﮛ ﮜ ﮝﮞ ﮟ ﮠ ﮡ ﮢ ﮣ ﭼ‬
“The Truth has come and the falsehood has vanished. Surely,
falsehood is ever bound to vanish.” – Surah Al-Israa 17: 81
- Reported by Al-Bukhaari (4720) and Muslim (1781).

And upon the authority of Abu Waaqid Al-Laythi (Radiyallaahu Anhu)


that he said:

“We went out with the Messenger of Allaah (Salallaahu Alayhi Wa


Sallam) to Hunayn and we had just recently left disbelief and the
Mushrikoon (polytheists) had a lote-tree that they used to stay and
hang their weaponry upon, it used to be called ‘Dhaat Anwaad’. So
we passed a lote tree and we therefore said:

“O Messenger of Allaah! Make for us a ‘Dhaat Anwaad’ the same


way they have a ‘Dhaat Anwaad’”

Then the Messenger of Allaah (Salallaahu Alayhi Wa Sallam) said:

“Allaahu Akbar! By the One who has my soul in His Hand, verily
these are the ways (of the earlier generations); you have said that
which the children of Israel said to Moosa (Alayhis As-Salaam):
:‫األعراف‬ ‫ﭽ ﭟ ﭠ ﭡ ﭢ ﭣ ﭤﭥ ﭦ ﭧ ﭨ ﭩ ﭪ ﭼ‬
٨١١

“Make for us a god just as they have gods” – Surah Al-A’raaf


7:138

And then He (Salallaahu Alayhi Wa Sallam) said:

“You shall certainly follow the ways of those that came before
you.” -Reported by At-Tirmidhee (2180) and declared ‘Saheeh’ by Shaykh Al-Albaani.

But yet again I ask, do we find our Lord, Azza Wa Jal, our Prophet
Muhammad (Sallallaahu AlayhI Wa Sallam) rebuking these innocent
creations of Allaah for being worshipped with Istighaathah and much
more?!

And how many other creations and pious slaves of Allaah have been
worshipped besides Allaah for a long period of time now, with
Istighaathah and other than that from the various acts of worship,
such as our Prophet Muhammad (Salallaahu Alayhi Wa Sallam) by his
grave and other places, the companions such as Ali, even the
Ulamaah have been worshipped besides Allaah and there is not year
except that the following year is worse, and we ask Allaah to keep us
firm until we die.

So therefore, if you have come to realize that these people of


righteousness and innocent creations have been worshipped and
been taken as partners besides Allaah and on the day of Judgment
that they were declare themselves innocent and free of these
destructing actions, then you have come to know that Shaykh Yahya
and the rest of the righteous are innocent if they are worshipped
besides Allaah.
Allaah, the Most High, said:

‫ﭽﮢ ﮣﮤ ﮥ ﮦ ﮧ ﮨ ﮩ ﮪ ﮫ‬

‫ﮬ ﮭ ﮮ ﮯ ﮰ ﮱ ﯓ ﯔﯕ ﯖ ﯗ‬

‫ﯘﯙ ﯚﯛﯜﯝﯞ ﯟ ﯠﯡ ﯢﯣ‬

٨٠٨ - ٤١ :‫األنبياء‬ ‫ﯤ ﯥ ﯦ ﯧ ﯨ ﯩﯪ ﯫ ﭼ‬
“Certainly you (disbelievers) and that which you are worshipping
now besides Allaah, are fuel for Hell! You will surely enter it. Had
these (idols, etc.) been gods, they would not have entered there,
and all of them will abide therein forever. Therein breathing out
with deep sighs and roaring will be their portion, and therein they
will hear not.

Verily those for whom the good has preceded from Us, they will be
removed far from there (Hell) [e.g. the righteous]. They shall not
hear the slightest sound of it (Hell), while they abide in that which
their own selves’ desire. The greatest terror (on the Day of
Resurrection) will not grieve them, and the angels will meet them,
(with the greeting):

"This is your Day which you were promised”."– Surah Al-Anbiyaa 21: 98-103

For verily, the truth is in contrary to that which this misguided person
is claiming and trying to affirm and that even if Shaykh Yahya was
purposely worshipped besides Allah with Istighaathah, then it is not
the Shaykh who is to be blamed but rather he is only to be blamed if
he is satisfied and happy with that and that indicates that he is not
just a disbeliever, but rather from the heads of Taaghoot! And
Allaah’s refuge is sought!

For indeed, as it is known to the small students of knowledge - and


perhaps not to this mysterious one – and to those that have studied
‘Usool Ath-Thalaathah’ or even just read the latter part of the book
that from the heads of Taaghoot is someone who is worshipped and
is satisfied with that.

Al-Imaam Muhammad bin Abdil-Wahhaab (Rahimahullaah)says:

“And the ‘Taghaaweet’ are numerous and their heads are five:
Iblees May Allaah curse him, and whoever is worshipped besides
Allaah and he is pleased with it…”

And then Al-Allaamah Al-Uthaymeen(Rahimahullaah) said explaining


this:

“Meaning: that whoever is worshipped besides Allaah and he is


pleased to be worshipped besides Allaah, for verily he is from the
heads of the Taghaaweet – And Allaah’s refuge is sought! – and it is
the same whether he is worshiped in his life or after his death if he
passed away and he was pleased with that”

So if it is true, that Shaykh Yahya was actually worshipped besides


Allaah with Isitighaathah and taken as a partner besides Allaah and
he is satisfied and happy with that, then he will not just become an
apostate from the apostates but rather he will become from the
heads of disbelief alongside the devil himself, Ibless (may Allaah
curse him) and that if he was to die without repenting to Allaah from
‘Taaghoot’ and ‘Shirk Al-Akbar’ that he will become from those that
will surely reside in the hell-fire forever!! And may Allaah protect us
and the Shaykh from this.
And an average person would think that this person’s misguidance
and ignorance would never reach the level where he would utter
such a thing.

But why wouldn’t it, when he has clearly made pitiable attempts to
declare Shaykh Yahya to be a disbeliever, from the heads of
Taaghoot, based upon solid envy and severe hatred and not out of
piety and fear of Allaah.

So where is this poor and lowly slave of Allaah from that which His
Master, Tabaaraka Wa Ta’aala, commanded him to do in His Book:

‫ﭽﮨ ﮩ ﮪ ﮫ ﮬ ﮭ ﮮﮯﮰ ﮱ‬
‫ﯓ ﯔ ﯕ ﯖ ﯗ ﯘﯙ ﯚ ﯛ ﯜ ﯝﯞ‬
١ :‫المائدة‬ ‫ﯟ ﯠﯡ ﯢ ﯣ ﯤ ﯥﯦ ﯧ ﭼ‬

“O you who believe! Stand out firmly for Allaah and be just
witnesses and do not let the enmity and hatred of a people make
you avoid being just. Be just that is indeed nearer to piety and fear
Allaah, verily Allaah is Well-Acquainted with what you do.”–Surah Al-
Maaidah 5: 8

? ? ?
Exposing the pitiable attempts of this
oppressor to declare Shaykh Yahya to be
a disbeliever:

The misguided one says:

“Yahya Al-Haddaadi worshipped besides


Allaah with Istighaathah”
And then he went on to clarify that this poet has entered into the
‘realm’ of major shirk and that the word – Reach me - which the poet
uttered is a well-known phrase of the Sufi grave-worshippers who
use exactly the same phrase when beseeching their saints for help
and rescue.

And how this becomes like the Sufi grave-worshippers who invoke
their saints for relief when they are in distress!!

And how it is not surprising to him that all of this Ghuluww towards
‘Yahya al-Haddadi’ would lead some of his students to fall into the
likes of Shirk Al-Akbar!!

And how this is a lesson on how shirk emerges on the land!

And then he said at the end of his speech:

“We seek refuge in Allaah, the starting point of all of this


is the
type of ghuluww that al-Hajuri has been witnessing in
front of his nose for many long years - satisfied and
happy with such baatil.”
An idiot surrounded by idiots in an orgy of self-praise and
aggrandizement. Indeed, as many people who were present in
Dammaaj area now reporting, this type of praise and
excessiveness was considered normal in Dammaaj "so
long as it did not get to the one being praised" - what an utterly
misguided thought!“

So this misguided oppressor has clearly affirmed and agreed with in


the conclusion of his evil speech the following:

1.) Shaykh Yahya has firstly witnessed and noticed this type of
ghuluww take place ‘in front of his nose’ for many long years,
meaning by “this type” Shirk Al-Akbar, for verily Shirk is not
only a type of Ghuluw but rather it is the greatest type.

2.) Shaykh Yahya is “satisfied and happy with such baatil” clearly
intending by ‘such baatil’ that which he repeatedly mentioned
himself from Shirk Al-Akbar and phrases of the Sufi grave-
worshippers when beseeching their saints, for verily Shirk is the
greatest type of Baatil.

And we all know that when the saints of the Sufi Grave-
Worshippers are beseeched with Istighaathah and other than
that from the acts of worship, that they are in the upmost level
of satisfaction and pleasure from that which they hear and
Allaah’s Refuge is sought!

3.) This type of praise and excessiveness was considered normal


in Dammaaj. And the meaning of this type of praise and
excessiveness is Shirk Al-Akbar and phrases Sufi grave-
worshippers, which is also another dangerous, fabricated,
slander which is also considered to be making Takfeer aswell,
due to the fact that considering shirk to be normal is a form of
satisfaction and pleasure which necessitates that all of the
students and residents of Dammaaj are from the heads of
Taaghoot just like their ‘Gemeni leader’ due to them
considering praises and excessiveness which include Shirk to be
from the norm!!! And what an utterly misguided
thought!

4.) And Shaykh Yahya, who has been praised by Al-Imaam Al-
Waadi’ee to be in a great level of Taqwa, Wara’ and fear of
Allaah, is considered to be nothing more than “an idiot
surrounded by idiots in an orgy of self-praise and
aggrandizement.”

Meaning: that Shaykh Yahya and all of his students – which actually
reach thousands & thousands - are all considered being nothing
more than just mere idiots.

The male, the female, the elderly, the, young, the Arab, the non-
Arab, the new students, the old students, the living, the dead
(Rahimahumullaah) are all in the eyes of this misguided oppressor –
May Allaah give him what he deserves - to be nothing more than
idiots and ignoramuses who clearly have not been nurtured upon
the Tawheed of the Messengers!

Subhaan’Allaah, where is the fear of Allaah?10

Additionally, I request from the readers, may Allaah bless them, to


re-read that which this oppressor said in the very beginning of his
evil speech which further exposes that which he intended by this
post was actually Takfeer, he said after mentioning that Shaykh
Yahya is ‘worshipped besides Allaah with Istighaathah’:

10
And we have a written a specific refutation on this oppressor were we have collected all of his insults and
slanders and refuted him for it in a singular treatise, may Allaah make it easy for us to complete it.
“which were met with nothing but acceptance by the
leader himself”

And he also said after mentioning the head-title:

“In this series we will give some illustrations of the type of


exaggeration (ghuluww) that Yahya al-Hajuri al-Haddadi has
received from his followers - indicating the type of tarbiyah
provided by Yahya al-Haddadi.”

And then mentioned:

‘Yahya al-Haddadi worshipped besides Allah with Istighaathah’

Meaning that: from the type of exaggerations that ‘Yahya al-


Haddadi’ has received from his followers is him being worshiped
besides Allah with Istighaathah which indicates the type of
Tarbiyyah provided by him!

Subhaan’Allaah! Did you not even consider seeking refuge from


shaytaan, the one who encouraged you to compile these evil
paragraphs in the first place or was you too busy with looking for the
faults of Shaykh Yahya? To the extent that you thought that this
article was actually a righteous action, when the reality is that it is
nothing more than a manifest sin!

“Then is he, to whom his evil deeds have been made fair seeming,
so that he considers it to be good (equal to one who is rightly
guided)? Verily, Allaah sends astray whom He wills, and guides
whom He wills” – Surah Faatir 35: 8

Al-Imaam Ibn Katheer (Rahimahullaah) commented on this verse and


said:

“Like the disbelievers and the evildoers, they do actions that are
evil and they in regards to that believe and hold that what they are
doing is in fact good deeds” –‘Tafseer Ibn Katheer’ below the verse

And it is not possible for anybody to believe that this oppressor was
in fact ignorant of the reality of these sick words and didn’t realize
due to his ignorance that this is actually considered to be making
takfeer of the Shaykh, rather that which is clear for he who possess
intellect and justice is that he wrote this deliberately knowing that
which his disgusting speech indicates.

And of course this is what is expected from somebody that


oppression and transgression is from his attributes and doesn’t fear
Allaah in his speech and is heedless of the Last Day in it.

We seek refuge with Allah from such heedlessness and lack of


Taqwa.
The Misguided One Contradicts Himself:

Know, O dear reader, that whoever does not follow the Guidance of
the Qur’an and Sunnah and does not adhere to following the
footsteps of the pious predecessors (Ridwaanullaahi Alayhim), then
know that it is an absolute must that he contradicts himself, as
Allaah, the Most High said:

‫ﭽﭻ ﭼ ﭽﭾ ﭿ ﮀ ﮁ ﮂ ﮃ ﮄ ﮅ ﮆ ﮇ‬
١٢ :‫النساء‬ ‫ﮈﮉ ﭼ‬

“Do they not then consider the Qur'an carefully? Had it been from
other than Allaah, they would surely have found therein many
contradictions.” – Surah An-Nisaa 4: 82

Al-Imaam Muhammad bin Saalih Al-Uthaymeen (Rahimahullaah)


said:

“Every person who does not follow that which the Book and the
Sunnah has come with, then he is going to contradict himself and it
is a must that he does!– then he brought this verse” – ‘Sharh Usool Min Ilm Al-Usool’
Page: 337

And contradiction is sufficient as an evidence to prove the falseness


of a speech and its corruption as Al-Imaam Ibnul-Qayyim
(Rahimahullaah) said:

“And if statements contradict one another and it is not possible to


combine them, then this is a proof for its corruption and
falseness!!” – ‘MiftaahDaar As-Sa’aadah’ Vol.2, Page: 137
So now pay attention carefully, O dear reader, to the speech of this
devious person, how the consequences of his oppression has lead
him to therefore contradict himself by narrating the speech of
people who are also unidentified just like him, he narrated upon
them by saying:

“Indeed, as many people who were present in Dammaaj


area now reporting11, this type of praise and excessiveness
was considered normal in Dammaaj "so long as it did not
get to the one being praised" - what an utterly misguided
thought!”

Now this person - who is way more deserving of being described with
misguidance himself! – is narrating this information which
contradicts that which he was desperately trying to affirm
throughout this whole article.

I say to this person:

Wasn’t it you - O devious one - that said: Shaykh Yahya provides this
type of tarbiyyah to his students, that they should praise him and
have ghluww in regards to him?!

1.) So please inform us why exactly would these ‘extremists’ in


Shaykh Yahya be worried that Shaykh Yahya finds out about
their extremism, when he provides this type of tarbiyyah to
them in the first place?

Wasn’t it you that said: Shaykh Yahya is an idiot surrounded by idiots


and ignoramuses in an orgy of self-praise and aggrandizement?!

2.) So why would these ‘young, ignorant, charged-up idiots’ be


worried that Shaykh Yahya finds out about their extremism and
11
Now a person has a right to ask: why are these unknown ‘reporters’ who were in Dammaaj narrating this
now, when this took place many years ago? I only wonder but why.
excessive praises when he himself - as you have mentioned
more than once - is already an ‘idiotic Haddaadi and Gemini
superstar in an orgy of self-praise and aggrandizement’ in the
first place?

Perhaps if that’s the case, he might possibly rebuke them for not
excessively praising him enough then, wouldn’t he O deviant one!!

Wasn’t it you that said: Shaykh Yahya has been witnessing ghluww
in front of his nose– which includes Shirk Al-Akbar and less than it –
for many long years, satisfied and happy with such baatil?! And that
he meets it with nothing but acceptance?!

3.) If Shaykh Yahya was satisfied and happy with the ghluww– as
you have mentioned more than once - that he has been
witnessing in front of his nose for many long years, then why
would these people be worried that Shaykh Yahya finds out
about their excessive statements, especially when he has been
meeting these types of praises and exaggerations with nothing
but mere jolly acceptance anyway for a very long time now?

Like you said, we don’t have to wait for centuries to see how
shirk emerges as in the time of the people of Nuh, for verily it
has been going on for less than a decade now, isn’t that right O
devious one?!

And then after that, you heedlessly mention the narration of these
anonymous people, that excessively praising Shaykh Yahya and being
extreme to him was considered normal as long as it did not reach the
Shaykh!!

I only ask why oh why? Please explain to us why these people are
worried that Shaykh Yahya finds out about their excessive
appraisements and their extremisms? (If it this narration is even authentic!)
٨٩١ :‫األنعام‬ ‫ﭽﭦ ﭧ ﭨ ﭩ ﭪ ﭼ‬
“Inform me with knowledge if you are indeed
truthful." – Surah Al-An’aam 6: 143

Is it due to the fact that if it was to reach the Shaykh, that people are
extremely praising him and exceeding the bounds in complementing
him that he would refute them, discipline them and expel them from
the centre if they do not repent?

Answer: OF COURSE

So the fear of these people that their extremism reaches Shaykh


Yahya is a clear evidence that he is not ‘satisfied and happy with
such baatil’ as you oppressively mentioned!!

So this nullifies that which you were pathetically trying to affirm


that Shaykh Yahya loves ghluww, doesn’t it then O deviant one?

All of this indicates that this reckless human being – May Allaah
expose him even more - did not tread the path of the people of
Sunnah and Hadeeth in refuting and establishing criticisms, rather he
treaded the dark and gloomy path of the people of desires like his
companions ‘Al-Maktabah Al-Hizbiyyah’ in producing refutations
that resemble the houses of spiders when pondering over its
strength in knowledge! But nevertheless, contradiction will
unceasingly be from the signs of the victims of Hizbiyyah as Al-Imaam
Al-Waadi’ee (Rahimahullaah) clarified:

“And indeed the Hizbiyoon contradict themselves severely!” –


‘Ghaartul-Ahrita’ Vol.2 Page: 106

So when this misguided person decided not to tread the path of


Ahlus-Sunnah, he then chose to tread the path of the people of
desires and innovation so he therefore jam-packed his so called
‘illustration’ with nothing more than mere ignorance, fabrications,
deficiency and contradiction!

Shaykul-Islaam Ibn Taymiyyah (Rahimahullaah) mentions:

“Whoever treads the path of Ahlus-Sunnah, his statements


becomes upright and he will become from the people of truth,
steadfastness and justice, otherwise he will fall into ignorance, lies,
deficiency and contradiction” – ‘Minhaaj As-Sunnah’ Page 313, Vol. 4

So I ask you, O dear reader, can you please point out to me exactly
where the uprightness, justice and truth in this oppressor’s speech is
because I can't?
Is the narration of these unknown
‘reporters’ accepted?

Know, O dear reader may Allaah bless you, that this narration which
is narrated by these unknown ‘reporters’ is not accepted at all, due
to the fact that neither their honesty12 nor name has been affirmed
for us at all, furthermore, this person himself is unknown and
unidentified, so now we have more than one unknown narrator in
the chain of this narration.

And a narrator or a ‘reporter’ who is unnamed in the chain of


narration is recognized in the terminologies of the Muhadditheen
(Scholars of Hadeeth) to be: ‘Mubham ‘

As Al-Imaam Al-Bayqooni (Rahimahullaah) mentions in his beneficial


poetry regarding the sciences of hadeeth:

“And Mubham is which therein is a nameless narrator…”

Al-Allaamah Az-Zurqaani (Rahimahullaah) mentioned in his


explanation of ‘Bayqooniyyah’:

“Meaning: that man or woman who is in the hadeeth or in the


chain of narration has not been named…”

So if the narrator who is unnamed comes in a chain of narration


which is unsupported by another narration which clarifies who he is,
then we automatically declare that chain of narration to be weak,
except if the unnamed narrator is an Companion of the Prophet

12
And that which is apparent - if these people even exist in the first place - is that their honesty has been
destroyed due to them blatantly lying by narrating that excessively praising Shaykh Yahya and having ghluww
in him to the extent that worshipping him with Istighaathah is considered to be from the norm in Dammaaj.
And this is from the worst of lies and fabrications that I have ever heard the victims of Hizbiyyah say about
Dammaaj and its students, and certainly with Allah is the Final Return and Meeting.
(Salallaahu Alayhi Wa Sallam) then it does not harm us whether or
not we do not know his name due to the fact that all of the
Companions of the Prophet (Salallaahu Alayhi Wa Sallam) are
trustworthy, honest and pious, may Allaah be pleased with them all
and gather us with them on the Day of Judgement, Aameen.

And the ruling of the narrations of the one who is Mubham is that
they are not to be accepted at all and this seems like a consensus
from the Muhadditheen, as Al-Imaam Ibn Katheer (Rahimahullaah)
mentions:

“As for he who is Mubham, the one who has not been named or he
has been named but he is unknown specifically, then he is from
those that we do not know of anyone accepting his narrations…” –
‘Ikhtisaar Oloom Al-Hadeeth’ Page: 137

Al-Haafidh Ibn Hajr (Rahimahullaah) said:

“And the narrations of the Mubham are not accepted as long as he


is unnamed, because from the conditions of accepting a narration is
the honesty of its narrators and whosoevers name is unknown then
he himself is unknown, so how about his honesty then?!” – ‘Nuzhatun-
Nadhr’ Page: 216

Then these ‘reporters’ are from this category, that no-one from the
scholars of Hadeeth will ever think twice about rejecting their
narrations.

So likewise, it is befitting for every person who is truthful in his claim


that he is Salafi that he follows the footsteps of our beloved pious
predecessors in applying the principles of hadeeth and that he
shouldn’t contradict their guidance especially in this blessed field.

So if we therefore implement that which we have now come to


acknowledge - by the virtue of Allaah – we will then reject the
narrations of these unnamed ‘reporters’ until this misguided
oppressor affirms for us their honesty and specifically mentions their
names and Allaahu ‘Alam if he will ever do that.

But rather, that which I expect from this oppressor– may Allaah give
him what he deserves - is that he is going to claim that these
unnamed ‘reporters’ are trustworthy to him without stating their
names and that he knows them for good and steadfastness and
other than that from his predictable nonsense.

Then we say to this oppressor that this is also incorrect, for verily as
it is known from the books of the Muhadditheen that it is not
sufficient for the narrations of a Mubham to be accepted that the
person narrating upon the Mubham says:

‘I was informed by a trustworthy person’

Due to the fact: that he could be trustworthy with this person but in
the eyes of somebody else he could be an excessive liar for example.

Al-Imaam An-Nawawee (Rahimahullaah) said:

“And if he said: ‘a trustworthy person narrated to me’ or similar to


that, then the correct opinion is that it is not sufficient” – ‘At-Taqreeb
Wat-Tayseer’ Page: 211

As-Sayooti (Rahimahullaah) (Died: 911 AH) said explaining the speech


of Imaam An-Nawawee:

“Because even if he considers him to be trustworthy, perhaps if he


named him, he (the mubham) might possibly be from those that
have been criticized with a disparagement which pierces (one’s
honesty), rather avoiding stating his name is in itself suspicious and
it casts hesitation into the heart!” – ‘Tadreeb Ar-Raawi’ (Vol.1, Page: 470)

Al-Haafidh Ibn Hajr (Rahimahullaah) says:


“And likewise his (mubham’s) narration is not accepted, even if he
was unnamed alongside an appraisement, for example: if the
narrator upon him (mubham) said:

“I was informed by a trustworthy person”.

Because he could be trustworthy in his perspective and disparaged


with someone else and this the most correct opinion in this topic” -
‘Nuzhatun-Nadhr’ Page: 216-217

Al-Imaam Muqbil Al-Waadi’ee (Rahimahullaah) says:

“And that which is correct is: that the statement of a Muhaddith:

‘A trustworthy person narrated to me’.

Is classified to be from the category of Da’eef (Weak Hadeeths),


due to the fact that he could be trustworthy in his perspective but
considered weak with someone else.” – ‘His Footnotes on: Tafseer Ibn Katheer’
(Vol.1, Page: 392)

So we do not accept the narrations of the Mubham even if the one


narrating upon him praises him and says that he is: ‘Thiqah’
(Trustworthy) and this is the opinion of the majority of the scholars
of Hadeeth as Al-Qaasimi (Rahimahullaah) mentioned in ‘Qawaaid
At-Tahdeeth’ and we also do not accept this even if the one narrating
upon him is an great Imaam, Muhaddith, Faqeeh himself such as Al-
Imaam Ash-Shaafi’ee.

As Al-Imaam Al-Waadi’ee (Rahimahullaah) says:

“A trustworthy person informed me’ is not to be considered at all,


because Ash-Shaafi’ee says: ‘A trustworthy person informed me’
and he intends by that:

'Ibraaheem bin Abee Yahya’


And An-Nisaa’ee counted him to be from: The heads of the
excessive liars!!

And Imaam Ahmad says about ‘Ibraaheem bin Abee Yahya’:

‘Jahmi, Raafidhee, every type of evil is in him’!!

And perhaps he (Shafi’ee) says: ‘A trustworthy person narrated to


me’and intends by that:

‘Muslim bin Khaalid Az-Zanji’ and he is weak.

And also, that narrator that he intends could be trustworthy in his


perspective and considered weak with someone else. So based
upon this: that which he (Shaafi’ee) or anybody else says with
regards to: ‘A trustworthy person narrated to me’ is to be withheld
and withdrawn from.” –‘7th tape from his revision of the book: At-Tadreeb’

And we have also heard his successor, our noble Shaykh, al-
Allaamah, al-Muhaddith, Yahya bin Ali Al-Hajoori (Hafidhahullaah)
mention the same opinion many times in his beneficial circles of
hadeeth13 and it is the correct opinion.

So that which would have been befitting for this oppressor to do


was: to clarify who exactly these ‘reporters’ are as well as himself.

But as for this mysterious person and these mysterious ‘reporters’,


then if he was to mention his name and full linage as well as theirs
until the Prophet Aadam (Alayhis-Salaam) and have thousands of
great scholars praising them, then their narrations will never be
accepted due to that which we observe from lack of honesty,
truthfulness and fear of Allaah in their speech, until they clearly
repent to their Lord, the Oft-Forgiving and clarify to the people their
13
Or shall I say: circles of thousands and thousands of extreme idiots, charged up youths who clearly haven’t
been nurtured Islamically surrounding a Gemini superstar who is in an orgy of self-praises and
aggrandizement! We seek refuge from such bad manners.
lies and fabrications against Dammaaj, and may Allaah give them
Tawfeeq to do so, Aameen.

But really and truly O dear readers, this misguided oppressor’s lack
of identification for his own self causes me to really doubt and
distrust whether or not these ‘reporters’ even exist in the first place.
As the honourable Imaam Ibnus-Salaah (Died: 643 AH
Rahimahullaah) mentioned the consequences of narrating upon the
one who is mubham:

“Rather, avoiding to mention his (mubham’s) name causes doubt


and suspicion and casts hesitancy in the hearts”– ‘Ma’rifah Anwaa’ Ilm Al-
Hadeeth’ – Page: 71

So in order to remove this doubt and suspicion from our hearts…

We therefore challenge you, O misguided one, to


mention to us who are your men if you are indeed
truthful!
