Also, in addition to the above, one should note that it wasn't just al-Suhayli that they relied upon as the quotes clearly mention وغيره Lastly, what's your point in bringing all this to the table? You do realize that all that you're doing is trying to prove why Muslims shouldn't express happiness on the birthday of the Prophet (Sallallahu `alayhi wa sallam)? What a lowly endeavor. Good luck with that. The discussion would become more fruitful if we can identify a common reference point which both you and Mufti Zameel agree to. Mufti Zameel's stance is crystal-clear: "Due to the birth of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) in the month of Rabiul Awwal, people attach extra virtue to the month itself. This is wrong."While you do not agree to the fact that people are actually guilty of this, you seem to agree to the fact that such an attachment of virtue to the month itself would be an evil, hence your attribution of "Suu al-Zann" (harbouring evil thoughts) to Mufti Zameel for harbouring such evil thoughts about the people. In other words, Mufti Zameel's assertion that the people attach extra virtue to the month of Rabiul Awwal, due to the birth of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) in that particular month, is "Suu al-Zann" (harbouring evil thoughts) on the people. Here are a few statements of yours in which you make it clear that Mufti Zameel is guilty of "Suu al-Zann" (harbouring evil thoughts about the poeple) for his belief that people attach extra virtue to the month of Rabiul Awwal, or make it appear to attach extra virtue to Rabiul Awwal, due to the birth of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) in that particular month: This is just your own subjective opinion that people are celebrating the Mawlid in Rabi` al-Awwal due to “extra virtue(s)” whereas others would say it's because it’s “extra relevant” to do so in that month for the obvious reasons... It is suu al-Zann for you to continuously make it seem that whatever “reward” they’re attaching to such mawlid gatherings is only in the ukhrawi sense and therefore is unwarranted. The clear implication of your attribution of "Suu al-Zann" to Mufti Zameel is that if people actually did attach virtue to the month itself, or any particular time or day of the month, or even "making it appear" to hold extra virtue "in the ukhrawi sense", then it would be an evil? Thus, both you and Mufti Zameel agree to the following fact, which can then act as a common reference point: "Holding the belief that the month of Rabiul Awwal itself holds extra virtue (in an ukhrawi sense) due to the birth of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) in that particular month, is an evil."Please do correct me if I have misunderstood your position and this is NOT a common reference point which both you and Mufti Zameel can concur upon. Of course, where you seem to differ with Mufti Zameel, is that people are not actually guilty of this evil, hence you deem Mufti Zameel to be guilty of Suu al-Zann upon the people.

Salih al-Munajjid quotes al-Albani on this issue as follows:
"The muhaddith al-Albaani commented:
For that reason this so-called Sunnah is not mentioned in Kitaab al-Umm by Imaam al-Shaafa’i, or in al-Masaa’il by Imaam Ahmad, or by any of the other early imaams, as far as I know.
Hence I say:
Those who pray this Sunnah are not following the Messenger or imitating any of the imaams; on the contrary, they are imitating the later scholars who are like them in that they are also imitators [of earlier scholars] rather than mujtahideen [scholars who investigate and form their own rulings]. I am amazed to see an imitator imitating another imitator.
(See al-Qawl al-Mubeen, 60, 374)."

FOUR RAKA’TS SUNNAT BEFORE THE JUMUAH KHUTBAH
THE IRREFUTABLE PROOF OF THE HANAFI MADH-HAB [By Hazrat Maulana Ahmad Sadeq Desai] THE SALAFI CONTENTIONThe wayward Salafis who have lost the Straight Path of the Sunnah, thus deviating into error manifest, contend that the four raka’ts Sunnat Salaat which Hanafis perform before the Jumuah Khutbah have no basis in the Sunnah. In this brief treatise, we have, Alhamdulillah, scuppered the fallacy of their baseless arguments. Ibn Taimiyyah, the imam of the Salafis, appeared on the scene more than six centuries after the Sahaabah. During these six or more centuries, the Ummah had not lost the knowledge and practice of the Ibaadaat taught by Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam). The Sahaabah had imparted this knowledge to their Students, the Taa-bieen who in turn transmitted this knowledge to their Students, the illustrious Aimmah Mujtahideen among whom the foremost was Imaam Abu Hanifah (rahmatullah alayh). Ibaadat is not fixed by Qiyaas (analogical reasoning). Ibaadat is by the direct ta’leem of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) and the Sahaabah. It is therefore preposterous to assume that all the great personalities of Islam during the Taabieen and Tab-e-Taabieen ages, centuries before Ibn Taimiyyah, were unaware of the raka’ts which accompany every Salaat. The moron Salafis are in effect implying that for more than six centuries since the time of the Sahaabah, the Ummah was unaware of the details of the Ibaadat of Jumuah Salaat, and a chap such as Ibn Taimiyyah popping up many centuries after the Sahaabah, unearthed the correct ibaadat form which had been lost after the demise of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam). The morons who claim that Imaam Abu Hanifah had erred in this mas’alah are implying that the great Sahaabi Hadhrat Abdullah Ibn Mas’ood (radhiyallahu anhu) who had commanded the four raka’ts and on whose authority the Ahnaaf [the followers of the Hanafi Madh-hab] act, had in fact erred. In other words, Hadhrat Ibn Mas’ood (radhiyallahu anhu), in terms of the Salafi implication did not have the proper knowledge of Jumuah Salaat. This is the ludicrous and logical conclusion of the claim of the moron Salafis.

EXPERT TESTIMONIES ON THE HUMANENESS OF HALAAL SLAUGHTER
[By a student of the Deen] There is a widespread misconception amongst non-Muslims that the Islamic method of slaughtering animals is brutal, inhumane, and causes the animals to undergo torturous pain. This misconception is also held by modernist Muslims who entertain doubts regarding the wisdom, efficacy, and mercy inherent in the Islamic sacred method of slaughtering as commanded and practised by the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wasallam). Furthermore, the misconception is given impetus by the widespread practice of so-called ‘Halal’ food authorities condoning or certifying an abominable, hybrid system consisting of foreign and brutally barbaric systems of slaughter adopted from the West, coated with a thin facade of rituals that are supposedly Islamic – all designed to facilitate for the carrion-addicted Muslim masses their self-serving deception that the diseased end-product of this mutated system is Halaal.
Dr. Temple Grandin is recognised widely in the western world as the world’s leading expert on humane methods of animal slaughter. She has practically devoted her entire life to researching, designing, and experimenting on equipment and methods aimed at improving the conditions in which animals are reared, and the manner in which they are slaughtered. Having observed literally thousands of animals undergoing slaughter through various methods, over a period of decades, her observations can be said to carry some weight, at least according to the emphasis placed on empiricism by modern science. Her observations regarding the Jewish Kosher system of slaughter, many aspects of which are identical to the Islamic system, are worth noting here – primarily for the benefit of both sincere non-Muslims who are open-minded to a truth that might run against what they wish to believe in, and for the benefit of the growing number of Muslims who are unaware of the humaneness inherent in the ancient Islamic method of slaughter.
Describing the initial, complete lack of reaction exhibited by animals after having been subject to the Jewish Kosher method of slaughter, Dr Temple Grandin states:
“The author (i.e. Temple Grandin) designed and operated four state-of-the-art restraint devices that hold cattle and calves in a comfortable upright position during kosher (Jewish; Fig 3) slaughter. To determine whether cattle feel the throat cut, at one plant the author deliberately applied the head restrainer so lightly that the animals could pull their heads out. None of the 10 cattle moved or attempted to pull their heads out.”
Dr. Grandin goes on to mention that such is the calmness and unawareness of the cattle of its throat having been cut, that even tapping its head or face have been observed to elicit a far greater reaction:
“Observations of hundreds of cattle and calves during kosher slaughter indicated that there was a slight quiver when the knife first contacted the throat. Invasion of the cattle’s flight zone by touching its head caused a bigger reaction. In another informal experiment, mature bulls and Holstein cows were gently restrained in a head holder with no body restraint. All of them stood still during the cut and did not appear to feel it.”
She does admit that this did surprise her initially:
“…when I’ve seen shechita on a cow done really right by a really good shochet, the animal seemed to act like it didn’t even feel it – if I walked up to that animal and put my hand in its face I would have got a much bigger reaction than I observed from the cut, and that was something which really surprised me.”
Dr. Grandin observes that even when the onset of unconsciousness is delayed, there is still no sign of distress discernible:
“Cattle do not appear distressed even when the onset of unconsciousness is delayed. Pain and distress cannot be determined by measurements such as an electroencephalogram. Behavioral observations, however, are valid measures for assessing pain. The author has observed that cattle appear unaware that their throat is cut. Investigators in New Zealand have made similar observations. Immediately after the cut, the head holder should be loosened slightly to allow the animal to relax. The author also has observed that after the head restraint is released, the animal collapses almost immediately or stands and looks around like a normal, alert animal. Within 5 to 60 seconds, cattle go into a hypoxic spasm and sensibility appears to be lost.”
Unfortunately as a result of the acute prevalence of unislamic and foreign systems adopted widely by Muslims today, tolerated and given the stamp of approval by evil modernist scholars (Ulama-e-Soo) dictated by pecuniary and stomach-related motives, Dr. Grandin appears not to have witnessed the proper Islamic system of slaughter. Her observation of what she mistakenly deemed to be the Islamic method, is particularly damning and representative of Muslims today who have adopted an abominably mutated, hybrid system of unislamic practices coated superficially with a few Islamic rituals:
“The design of the knife and the cutting technique appeared to be critical in preventing the animal from reacting to the cut. In kosher slaughter, a straight, razor-sharp knife that is twice the width of the throat is required, and the cut must be made in a single continuous motion. For halal (Muslim) slaughter, there are no knife-design requirements. Halal slaughter performed with short knives and multiple hacking cuts resulted in a vigorous reaction from cattle. Fortunately, many Muslim religious authorities accept preslaughter stunning. Muslims should be encouraged to stun the cattle or use long, straight, razor-sharp knives that are similar to the ones used for kosher slaughter.”
What Dr. Grandin does not realize, through no fault on her part, is that the true Islamic system is restricted and governed by far more rules than any other method of slaughter in the world. Just as Muslims today have abandoned Islamic values and rules in every sphere of life, primarily in the name of modernisation, so too have they replaced the Islamic system of slaughter with the brutal hybrid system in vogue everywhere.
At this point, it is worth mentioning just a few of the Islamic rules defined in detail by the Fuqaha (classical Islamic jurists of the 4 accepted schools of thought in Islam) over a millennium ago, which have been abandoned by many Muslims today in the name of modernisation and mass-commercialisation. These integral requisites of the Islamic system include ensuring that:
(1) The animal is reared from birth in the most humane and comfortable environment. Any distress or pain caused to the animal at any point in time is completely forbidden.
(2) The tender and gentle treatment must continue right up till the time of the slaughter. The animal must be completely unaware of the slaughter.
(3) The animal is fed and given water to drink prior to the slaughter.
(4) The knife must be exceedingly sharp and suitable for the purpose.
(5) The knife must never be sharpened in the presence of the animal.
(6) The slaughter of one animal must never take place in the presence of another animal. Even the blood left over by one animal should never ever be visible to another animal.
(7) The recitation of the Tasmiya (and Durood Shareef) must take place which exercises a calming effect on the animal.
(8) The one who slaughters the animal must be known to be a righteous (Aadil) person who can be trusted with the animals.
(9) And there are many more incumbent requirements of the Islamic system, all of which contribute to the smoothness of the process, and ensures that at no point in time does the animal have any opportunity to get agitated.
Dr. Grandin does observe that animals without visible signs of agitation prior to the slaughter lose sensibility and collapse more quickly:
“Observations by the author indicated that near immediate collapse can be induced in over 95% of cattle if the ritual slaughterer makes a rapid, deep cut close to the jawbone. Further observations indicated that calm cows and bulls lose sensibility and collapse more quickly than cattle with visible signs of agitation.”
After having observed a Jewish Kosher plant that failed to abide by the code which governs their slaughter, Dr Grandin states that fault should not be attributed to the method of slaughter. Rather, criticism should be directed at those who are guilty of abandoning the compulsory requisites of the particular method of slaughter:
“I thought it was the most disgusting thing I’d ever seen. I couldn’t believe it. I’ve been in at least 30 other kosher slaughter plants, and I had never ever seen that kind of procedure done before. … I’ve seen kosher slaughter really done right, so the problem here is not kosher slaughter. The problem here is a plant that is doing everything wrong they can do wrong.”
Dr. Temple Grandin’s conclusions based on extensive real-life tests and observations are corroborated by other experts who have had a similarly extensive experience in this field. For example, Professor Harold Burrow of the Royal Veterinary College states:
“Having witnessed the Jewish method carried out on many thousands of animals, I am unable to persuade myself that there is any cruelty attached to it. As a lover of animals, an owner of cattle and a veterinary Surgeon I would raise no objection to any animal bred, reared or owned by me being subjected to this method of slaughter.”
The results of a scientific study on the Halaal slaughter method carried out some years ago by a team headed by Professor Wilhelm Schulze of Hanover University, also then the Director of the University of Veterinary Medicine of Hanover, matches in virtual exactitude Dr Grandin’s independent conclusions, and serve as further corroboratory evidence of the lack of pain experienced by animals that undergo the true Islamic method of slaughter with all its compulsory requirements abided by. The study named, “Attempts to Objectify Pain and Consciousness in Conventional (captive bolt pistol stunning) and Ritual (HALAL, knife) Methods of Slaughtering Sheep and Calves” involved surgically implanting electrodes into various points in the skull of 17 sheep and 10 calves to enable measurements of impulses from the cerebral cortex. EEG (electroencephalograph) readings from this method give accurate measurements of the levels of brain activity and consciousness of the animals.
After a swift, deep incision with a sharp knife on the neck of the animals, there was no change to the EEG reading initially, confirming the fact that animals are completely unaware of being cut during and after the slaughter incision. Within a time-scale range of 4-10 seconds the EEG reading dropped significantly indicating a state of complete unconsciousness – a reading that is similar to that registered by an animal in deep sleep. A zero reading of the EEG, indicating a state of virtual brain inactivity (total unconsciousness and insensibility), was recorded no later than 23 seconds for all the animals (13 seconds for the sheep).
Only after the zero reading was registered and the brain currents had stopped, did regular convulsions and cramps occur in the animals. This is the phase which is most aesthetically unpleasant to the onlooker and can give the erroneous impression to the uneducated that the animal is reacting from distress. In all the tested animals convulsions occurred only after deep unconsciousness had set in. Dr Grandin’s observations independent to this study also confirm this fact.
In fact, the accepted scientific explanation behind convulsions confirm the fact that the animals are completely unconscious when this phase occurs. Convulsions occur due to the sudden shortage of oxygen to the brain which triggers the muscles of the body to contract vigorously and squeeze out blood from the tissues into the central circulation system to be sent to the brain. Since the venal and arterial connections to the brain have been severed, the pumped blood never reaches its intended destination, thus starving the brain further and intensifying the state of unconsciousness. These convulsions act as the most powerful and efficient means through which the maximum amount of blood is expelled from the body, which in turn induces, in the most rapid manner possible, transition from a complete state of unconsciousness to death.
People who undergo epileptic fits undergo similarly violent convulsions, when the brain deprived of oxygen triggers the same process that ostensibly gives the impression of pain and distress. Such people who experience fits can confirm the total absence of pain sensation and even memory of their violent convulsions, even though they may have sustained injuries due to the body falling and writhing about.
Life experiences of humans also confirm the fact that unexpected injuries, even serious ones, can occur without the person feeling any pain initially, despite the ostensibly gory scene that ensues. It is fairly common for victims of knife wounds, for example, to be completely oblivious to the fact that they’ve been fatally wounded, until some time later. In fact, there are numerous instances of people who have managed live to tell the tale after having been inflicted with a sudden clean cut to throat, and who describe being completely unaware of the fatal injury before passing out suddenly and regaining consciousness much later. The only sensation usually felt is that of a warm liquid flowing rapidly down one’s chest. To cite one example that can be easily verified online, Mr Mark Wells had his throat slit in an attempted murder which was reported in newspapers a few years ago. He recalls feeling no pain whatsoever, despite the obviously gory scene that would have been observable to any onlooker. Only after having looked in the mirror and witnessed the horrific state of his body did he say panic set in: “All I felt was a warm feeling coming down my throat all of a sudden. I thought it was just a nick. I stood up and looked in the mirror and there was all this flesh hanging down. That’s when I freaked out.” The next thing he remembers is waking up in a hospital “with cops all around me”.
The process of bleeding itself is pain-free as can be confirmed by any blood donor. Furthermore, modern science confirms the fact that very heavy bleeding starves the brain of oxygen and induces unconsciousness rapidly. The onset of convulsions akin to fits, signals a state of complete unconsciousness.
Another point to bear in mind is that animals in the wild invariably die violent and/or ostensibly painful deaths whether by falling prey to other animals, through contracting disease, experiencing accidents, starvation etc. Very rarely does an animal in the wild die purely due to old age. Rather, as an animal approaches old age, it becomes an easier target for predators or competitors, and more prone to disease and accidents. Furthermore, the extremely negligible number of animals that may die of natural causes (if we discount predators, disease, etc. as ‘natural causes’), or are domesticated as pets, pass away in a manner that appears painfully slow and gradual.
The detailed rules and restrictions set out by the Fuqaha (classical Islamic jurists) on rearing animals and slaughtering provide the most humane conditions in which an animal can live, breed, and pass away. Much to the chagrin of modernist Muslims today, these detailed rules and restrictions form a huge obstacle to commercializing a sacred process which is inherently slow, dignified, and humane. The compromise of Islamic rules approved by modernist scholars today in an attempt to mass-commercialize the sacred Islamic process renders the resultant system completely unIslamic, regardless of the few rituals that are superficially added in order to dupe the Muslim masses. Just as modernists in the name of ‘updating’ Islam for the modern age have bypassed the categorical rulings of the Fuqaha in every other sphere of life, so too have modernists abandoned the detailed restrictions and guidelines which govern the Islamic sacred process of rearing and slaughtering animals.
The Muslims masses who have adopted a way of life that is the very anti-thesis of the Islamic selfless spirit, and which revolves around brazen selfishness, unbridled fulfilment of their desires, and gratification of their gluttonous appetites, are no less culpable than the evil modernist scholars (Ulama-e-soo’) who give sanction to the brutal systems of ‘halaal’ slaughtering prevailing everywhere.
Every minute detail of all spheres of life governing the Islamic way of life has been defined and set in stone by the Fuqaha over a millennium ago. These rules represent the way of the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) and are immutable and unchangeable, no matter how incompatible or unpalatable they may appear to Muslim brains colonized by the west in this age of crass materialism and commercialization. Effecting changes to any of the rules set by the Fuqaha, in the name of modernisation, mass-commercialisation, or any other philosophy antithetical to the spirit of Islam, renders the end-product completely alien to Islamic teachings.

Salahuddin was of the Shaafi’i Madh-hab in Fiqh, a staunch upholder and propagator of the Ash’ari Madh-hab in Aqeedah, and one who established numerous Sufi Khanqahs including one in his own house in Damascus, as recorded by reliable Islamic historians such as al-Maqrizi.
Considering the fact that the numerous offspring (salafi sub-sects) today of Ibn Abdul Wahhab - the inspiration of ALL Salafi sects today, including ISIS - are doing Tabdee' (declaring as deviant) or Takfeer of even their own siblings (other Salafi subsects who share the same Taymiyyun Aqeedah), it's a no-brainer that the hard-core Sufi Ash'ari, Salahuddin Ayyubi, would have been declared a Kaaafir, or at least a deviant, if he were around today to establish Ash'arism and Sufism as he did in the 6th century.
Only political correctness and expediencies prevent the various Salafi sub-sects, who are second only to the Shiah sect in the chameleon-like art of Taqiyyah, from baring their true colours.

JIHAD - THE MOST JUST, HUMANE, AND NOBLE FORM OF WARFARE
[By a student of the Deen]
Jihad is the most just, humane and noble form of warfare.
Even non-Muslims who have managed to maintain some degree of honesty and objectivity while studying the Laws of Jihad have been compelled to conclude that the 1400 year old, ancient, medieval, “backwards” Laws of Jihad are superior to modern, “enlightened”, international rules related to war.
A few such examples are cited below:
Roger C. Algase, in his thesis comparing the laws of Jihad with modern international law, states that the laws of Jihad: Troy S. Thomas concludes in his thesis on the Laws of Jihad with regards to prisoners of war that: Hans Kruse states in his seminal thesis on Islamic International Law that: Unlike the the Geneva convention, the Hague convention, International Humanitarian Law, and other man-made laws which invariably fluctuate at the behest of the world’s powerful nations and which are often paid merely lip service to, the Laws of Jihad are immutable, unchangeable and can never be up for review or “improvement”. Moreover, such Divine Laws completely dictated, controlled and regulated the conduct of Muslim Warriors for over a thousand years. Regarding the rapid conquests of the medieval, “backwards” Muslims, the famous French political scientist, historian and thinker, Gustave Le Bon, states in his detailed study of the conquests of the early Arabs: Similarly, the English historian, Sir Thomas Walker Arnold, mentions in his detailed study of the early conquests of the very first generations of Muslims: Those who study objectively the conquests of the early Muslims, sincerely and honestly seeking the truth, will come to the very same conclusion as the following one reached by the former British Diplomat, Charles Eaton, one of innumerable westerners to have eventually embraced Islam after having realised the superiority and beauty of its evidently Divine Laws: Unfortunately, the likes of these Allah-fearing, selfless, honourable men of integrity, whose nature was imbued with genuinely Islamic mercy and concern for all of Allah’s Makhlooq (creation), and who conquered and ruled most of the known world for many centuries, are scarcely to be found anywhere in the world today. The Prophet of Allah (sallallaahu alayhi wasallam) foretold that true Islam will eventually become Ghareeb (lone, forlorn, strange) as it clearly has today.
A true representation of the only religion to have brought justice and enlightenment to the entire world on an unprecedented and rapid scale, the only religion under whose benign rule oppressed populations the world over found genuine sanctuary, and the only religion to have provided and to continue to offer a solution to the chaos, anarchy, mass-exploitation, epidemics of murder, suicides, depression, drugs, rapes, bestiality etc. currently plaguing every society today – the natural consequence of Kufr (disbelief and rejection of the Final, Divinely Revealed Law) – is more easily found in the ancient books of Islam than in any muslim community today.
Furthermore, testifying to its Divine origin and its applicability for all times and places, Islam is the only religion whose immutable 1400 year old source-texts, laws, spirit, ethos and every other facet, have been preserved in the most minute detail with unparalleled accuracy, thus enabling any person today or in future to embrace a Way of Life that will forever remain the only panacea to all the problems afflicting this ephemeral (extremely short-lived) world, and will forever remain the only religion that secures eternal salvation for the impending life to come tomorrow.
An exposition of one aspect of Jihad, the laws of Aman (the means by which a sacred contract of safety and security is enacted between the Muslims and the enemy (harbi)) will be forthcoming here insha-Allah, which will further demonstrate that the 1400 year-old, ancient, medieval, “backwards” Laws of Jihad – all of which are unchangeable and immutable just like every other 1400 year-old ruling of Islam – are far far superior to all man-made constructs including the innumerable modernist and Salafi versions of “Islam” which have mushroomed in recent times, and which all are perversions of true Islam.
Footnote 1:
The blood-soaked pillage of the sacred city of Jerusalem by the Christian crusaders, whose brutality and barbarism were not much less than their modern, secular counterparts today, is accurately depicted by the English Historian, Thomas Hart Milman, as follows: Christian historian Michaud writes: Fulcher of Chartres, a Christian chronicler of that time, said: Only a generation after the fall of Jerusalem into Christian hands, Sultan Salahuddin Ayyubi (rahmatullah alayh) (famously known in the west as “Saladin”) conquered this prized city. How did this Orthodox, medieval, Muslim ruler repay the butchery and massacre of 70,000 Muslims at the hands of the savage Crusaders? Describing the conquest of Jerusalem by Sultan Salahuddin, Steven Runcimman, a Christian, writes: Worth noting is the fact that Salahuddin was of the Shaafi’i Madh-hab in Fiqh and a staunch upholder and propagator of the Ash’ari Madh-hab in Aqeedah, as recorded by reliable Islamic historians such as al-Maqrizi. Hence, the likes of Ibn Abdul Wahhab who is the “mujaddid”, spiritual fountainhead, and inspiration of all Salafi sects today including ISIS, would quite likely have declared Salahuddin to be a Kaaafir, or at least a deviant, if he were around today.
True Islam as upheld by the likes of Salahuddin, stands poles apart to all versions of Salafi and modernist “islam”.

"MUFTI" ANWAR AWLAKI Civilians Are No Longer Civilians Due to Their Possible Participation in Voting for Their Government The very same Salafi methodology which allowed Shaykh Anwar Awlaki, only a few years ago, to strut around as a modernist, liberal Imaam also provides ample scope, once subject to the pressures of a wholly different environment, to cater for the ijtihaadi conclusion that civilians are no longer civilians. Whilst Anwar Awlaki did (at least once) refer to and agree to Shaykh Ibn Uthaymin’s famous fatwa encouraging the mass murder of women and children, he seems to (occassionally) prefer to quote the ruling of prohibition of killing civilians, and then proceeding to bypass such a prohibition by instantly transforming the civilians into war combatants: In another interview: Al-Malahem: Do you support such operations, though they target what the media calls “innocent civilians” etc.? Anwar Al-Awlaki: With regard to the issue of “civilians”, this term has become prevalent these days, but we prefer to use the terminology used by our scholars of Fiqh. They use the terms combatants or non-combatants. A combatant is someone who bears arms – even if it be a woman. Non-combatants are people who have no participation in the war. The American people as a whole are participants in the war because they elected this administration, and they finance this war. In the recent elections as well as previous ones, the American people had other options and could have elected people who did not want war. Nevertheless, these candidates got nothing but a handful of votes. Also before anything else, we must ex- amine this issue from the perspective of Islamic law, as this is what will settle the issue regarding its permissibility.” And: “We MUST also make their women and children as our enemies and targets” "Shaykh" al-Alawki also quotes "Mufti" Ibn Uthaymin for support for his ruling that “we must make their women and children enemies and targets”: It is better to target civilians than soldiers! In another publically broadcasted interview – that is still very easily available – Anwar Awlaki explains unambiguously why it is a better, and “much more potent and powerful” tactic to target a civilian population:

SMOKING OR USING AN INHALER INVALIDATES THE FAST ACCORDING TO IJMA' OF FOUR MADH-HABS
THE MUDHIL’S BAATIL SMOKING VIEW
According to the U.K. Zindeeq, Faasiq, deviate Atabek Shukurov, who has set himself up as an ‘authority’ of the Hanafi Math-hab, smoking tobacco and using an inhaler do not invalidate the fast. This jaahil has disgorged some absolutely spurious and stupid arguments to bolster his corrupt view which is in diametric conflict with the Fatwa of all Four Math-habs of the Ahlus Sunnah Wal Jama’ah. The Fuqaha of all Four Math-habs have unanimously ruled that smoking breaks the fast. According to the Hanafi Math-hab, intentionally smoking during Ramadhaan necessitates the obligations of Qadha as well as the 60 day Kaffaarah. Seeking to overturn the Ijma’ of the Four Math-habs, this modernist Zindeeq exhibits his jahaalat which confirms that he is ignorant of the Shar’i concept of Saum. He does not know even the proper meaning of Fasting. His article of jahl portraying his jahl-e-murakkab (compound ignorance), is bereft of even a shred of Shar’i evidence for his haraam view. He has miserably failed to cite even a single text from any of the Fuqaha of any of the Math-habs to bolster his haraam fallacy structured on the basis of corrupt personal opinion. Fasting is an injunction of the Shariah. Fasting has been ordained for Muslims since the era of Rasulullah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam). Its definition cannot be reinterpreted on the basis of the logic of a copro-jaahil whose brains are operating within the constriction of the straightjacket of western modernity. In his article he has presented absolutely no Shar’i daleel for his haraam view. He abortively attempts to prove his baseless view in terms of analogies which are fallacious. His fallacies shall, Insha-Allah, be dissected and demolished further on in this article. Continued in link below: reliablefatwas.com/atabek-shukorovs-baatil-smoking-view/

There really should be no surprise or shock expressed over the brutal atrocities being committed by salafi-influenced groups in the name of Islam, since fatwas from leading salafi scholars legalizing such abominations, such as Ibn Uthaymin’s explicit statement exhorting the slaughter of women and children, have been around for decades now.
Thus, the stupid surprise and "disgust" being feigned, and the deluge of criticism being currently offered by other Salafis to such groups who share the exact same spiritual and academic heritage as them, i.e. Ibn Taymiyyah and Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab, is just plain moronic and carries the stench of hypocrisy.
Furthermore, Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab, the very first Salafi ‘Jihadi’ whom ALL Salafi sects take to be a role-model, was himself responsible for far worse crimes during the Wahhabi’s first reign of terror. Books such as “Tareekh Najd” and “Unwan al-Majid fee Tareekh Najd”, authored by Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab’s direct students and supporters have chronicled in detail the massacres which the Wahhabis had committed in the name of Jihaad, including the Takfeer and subsequent pillaging of even those who were also against the widespread practices of bid’ah prevalent at the time, but who did not agree to his murderous crusade.
