❌ A Caution Regarding the Gatherings of Mutlaq Al-Jaasir in the UK! 🎙 Shaykh Dr. Abdulaziz Ar-Rayyis (may Allah preserve him) stated: Some of the brothers asked me about Mutlaq Al-Jaasir, the Kuwaiti: Mutlaq Al-Jaasir has some very strange issues and unusual deviations. The first matter: I heard him many years ago saying that the view of tafwid regarding Allah’s Attributes is a view held among Ahl As-Sunnah, and that Ahl As-Sunnah have two views: either affirming the Attributes or consigning their meanings and saying that they are unknown to us (tafwid). He attributes this to Abu Ya‘la and considers Abu Ya‘la’s position to be a recognised position among Ahl Al-Sunnah in this area - the area of creed. I criticised him for this some time ago. He then came out publicly, acting tearful and portraying himself as wronged, saying, “Who said that I say this?” He began supplicating and saying, “By Allah, I never said such a thing, nor did it ever cross my mind.” Yet I heard him with my own ears. Then Allah facilitated for the brothers to bring out his exact words. A clip was produced containing his denial; they showed his denial, then his statement advocating tafwid, followed by his denial of it and his complaints of being wronged. The reality is that a man may be an innovator and may be misguided, but he does not lie as a matter of religious practice. As for him lying, then this is an immense calamity. Lying indicates corruption in one’s intention and will. We ask Allah for well-being. That is the first matter. The second matter: If you ask around - I have been informed that he visits you, or that he will be visiting you in Britain - ask about whom he stays with. He stays with all sorts of people, including partisans and those who water down the religion, and others like them. Ask and verify this. This is his way. And this should not be surprising, for he went to the Ibaadis and visited them in Oman and praised them. Do you know what the Ibaadis say in their creed? They say that the Qur’an is created, that Allah will not be seen, and that the one who commits a major sin is a disbeliever - though they express this by calling it “disbelief of ingratitude” - along with other reprehensible beliefs. The third matter: He has participated in activities with Ahmad Al-Sayyid, the staunch Suroori, who seeks to revive the original Suroori movement under the guise of education, systematic grounding, nurturing rising generations, and other such slogans. They exchange roles in their da‘wah activities. So how can someone like this be trusted? This Ahmad Al-Sayyid is a revolutionary, and Al-Sayyid and his companion ‘Abdullah Al-‘Ujayri fled Saudi Arabia because of the corrupt nature of their methodology and thought and because of their revolutionary, partisan ideological foundations. The fourth matter: He calls to fanaticism in adhering to a madhhab. What amazes me greatly is how he can display such enthusiasm for the madhhab of Imam Ahmad while at the same time showing this kind of laxity towards the Ibadis and others, whereas Ahmad was among the strictest of people towards such opponents. Furthermore, whenever he finds a doubtful argument here or there, he spreads and publicises it in matters such as tawassul and others. Therefore, one should exercise the utmost caution regarding this man. He is striving to raise generations upon ideas such as these. So, my brothers, beware of compromising or showing undue courtesy in matters of religion. Fulfil your duty by warning the Salafi youth so that they are not deceived by him or by others like him. It is an immense calamity and a tremendous disaster for Salafis to slip into following people such as these. The matter is extremely serious, my brothers. 🔗 Extract from Our Opening Dawrah Conference. ‎ا═•═🕌═•═ا Masjid Daar Al-Hadeeth 150 Homerton High Street, London E9 6JA
