Salafism's spread in the West is because the western mind is primed to be receptive to any doctrine that: • insists on the virtue of independent reasoning (ghayr muqallid) • is suspicious of the structures of authority • regards mysticism as “irrational superstition”.

Salafis, it's normal to be upset when your beliefs are challenged. But a bricked-wall defensiveness is a sign that Allah left you misguided. Before reading, please make a duʿa for guidance, from wherever it may be🤲 Sunnis, be generous of character: the truth is on your side.

[1] The word god [ilāh] is sometimes defined as that which is “worthy of wor-ship”. Allah is the only one worthy of worship. Why? Because He is the LORD of all existence. It is His Lordship (creator, sustainer, cause of harm and benefit) that makes Him WORTHY of worship.📖

[7] ... when Ya'qūb PROSTRATED to Yūsuf (as) he thus "worshipped someone who wasn't his Lord". Such a claim is kufr. You can't say: "it was allowed back then" OR "he's excused by ignorance." Shirk was NEVER allowed, is never excusable & Prophets don't make errors in shirk.

[2] If you believe that someone is your god (worthy of worship) it's because you believe they have attributes that make them worthy - attributes of lordship. Your god is ALWAYS your lord. This is how it's defined in the most authoritative Arabic dictionary "Al-Lisān al-ʿArab".

[6] The EXTERNAL ACT comes from this internal condition. Without it, the act is meaningless. Thus, an atheist who performs Salah did not worship Allah. He had no ubūdiyyah driving the act b/c he did not believe in Allah's rubūbiyyah. Worship CANNOT be the ACT ONLY, otherwise..

[5] The reason is b/c feeling that someone has a DIVINE POWER over you [rubūbiyyah] puts you in a condition of humility & servitude to them [ubūdiy-yah]. This is enough to make you a "worshipper" of that thing even if you don't physically act upon it. Thus, worship is internal.

[23] To review. MIAW was: • IGNORANT: a 7 year old knows the shahada • UPON KUFR: judged Muslims kuffar b/c their shahada was invalid (but he was wrong). • KHAWARIJ: used verses about mushriks against Muslims & killed them. 2 contradictory shahadas =2 different religions.

[4] It works the other way too. If you make something your LORD you've automatically made it your GOD/object of worship. A Christian who believes 'Jesus is my Lord & Saviour' regards him as "worthy of worship", even if he doesn't physically prostrate to him. See the Qur'an📖

[8] So god (ilāh) INCLUDES lord (rabb). This is confirmed by Taqi ud-Din Ibn Taymiyyah: "godhead includes within it lordship... when one is mentioned it includes the other, even if each word has its own meaning." [Majmu al-Fatawa, II, p. 275] Further evidence in sura 21:22 📖

[9] MIAW changed all this. How? PHASE 1: MIAW said: "The Jahili mushriks believed Allah was their ONLY LORD, but they had other GODS besides Him, which they believed DID NOT have attributes of lordship [rubūbiyyah]." Thus he conceived of GOD [ilāh] and LORD [rabb] as SEPARATE.

[21] So when you see quotes from MIAW that he only made takfir on those "who rejected the truth"; know that his definition of "truth" was HIS OWN PERSONAL one, not that of Islam. He thus killed people who held the genuine shahada. It's no wonder why all ulema rejected him.

[22] Salafis still uphold MIAW's shahada. It's the basis of their religion & takfir of Muslims. So next time a Salafi argues about intercession or mawlid, etc. remind them to get their priorities in order: "If your shahada is kufr, you have no right to speak about anything."

Anyone who says Allah’s istiwa is literal has likened Him to creation and thereby technically invalidated his belief in Allah’s power and authority. Since the one who is like creation cannot possess true rububiyyah. So yes, literal and figurative ARE mutually contradictory.

@FloidHidden @ali_aqeedah 2/6) Salafiyyah know they're a minority and to protect themselves they reproduce statements from the salaf to suggest that the minority in the Ummah can be the saved sect. Ibn Mas'ud's statement was said to ulema who lived in Baghdad during the emergence of an early heresy.

@EbnHussein1424 ... It is this belief that makes Abu Jahl prostrating to his idol shirk and the prophet Ya'qub prostrating to Yusuf (alayhimussalam) not shirk. Identical actions, but entirely different beliefs. Major shirk does not occur in a physical action; it occurs in beliefs!

This is what I have been asking Salafis all along. You claim Abu Jahl has īmān in tawhīd al-rubūbiyyah. So when he is asked in the grave, “Who is your Lord?” how does he answer?

This hadith is problematic for Salafis. It clearly shows that the disbelievers, including the Pagan Meccans, DO NOT truly know that Allah is their LORD. They thus do NOT have "Tawhīd ur-Rubūbiyyah" as the Salafi sect claims. For Sunni Muslims, the disbelievers have zero Tawhīd.

Just because one city or town falls into heresy does not mean the entire Ummah from China to Spain have sunk into heresy as well.

[5] ᴄᴏɴᴄʟᴜsɪᴏɴ Allah has exposed the mushriks' talbiyah 3 times as proof of their shirkur-rubūbiyyah. Knowing this, any Salafi who uses the talbiyah to say "the mushriks did not ascribe lordship to their idols" has thrown aside Allah’s words for that of a mushrik's.

[1.6/2] If a mushrik says "Allah has a partner" and Allah responds, "No there are no other lords besides Me" this means that by the word "partner" the mushrik intended 𝑙𝑜𝑟𝑑. The true meaning of the mushrik's words lies in Allah's judgment, not some group's interpretation.
