Fawzaan: Yes, We are Salafi
This is a translation of the comments that al-'Allaamah Saalih Ibn Fawzaan al-Fawzaan added to the words of Ameerus-Sunnah Naayif Ibn 'Abdul-'Azeez - rahimahullaah - about Saudi Arabia's Salafee manhaj. These comments were delivered on the occasion of the recent "Salafiyyah is a Legislative Methodology" conference in Saudi Arabia.
Quote:
Shaykh Ahmad Ibn 'Umar Baazmool - hafidhahullaah - stated, "So news about the passing of his royal highness, al-Ameer Naayif Ibn 'Abdul-'Azeez Aali-Sa'ood - may Allaah bestow His vast mercy upon him - saddens the heart of every Salafee, adherent to the Sunnah and every individual who loves goodness and its people due to what the man was known for from holding onto the Sunnah, defending it and its people and raising the banner of as-Salafiyyah."
Quote:
Ameerus-Sunnah Naayif Ibn 'Abdul-'Azeez Aali-Sa'ood said, "We do not deem it improbable that there are forces hostile towards Islaam in a general manner and hostile towards our nation (i.e. Saudi Arabia), a nation of the Sunnah, a nation that traverses the methodology of the Salafus-Saalih. So we are a Salafee nation and we hold this in high esteem. And Salafiyyah is not a madhhab... And the Salafee methodology is what we have learned from the Messenger of Allaah (sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam)..."
