An Extremely Corrupt and Disrespectful statement of the Tijaaniyyah Soofiyyah

refuted by Al-Allaamah Abdur-Rahmaan Ibn Yoosuf Al-Afreeqee (rahimahullaah)

Al-Allaamah Abdur-Rahmaan Ibn Yoosuf Al-Afreeqee (rahimahullaah) said: He (i.e. Ahmad Tijaani) stated in Jawaahir Al-Ma’aanee, and likewise in Al-Jaysh (page 91): Indeed, this Wird [1] (i.e. an act of worship by way of supplication, remembrance of Allaah etc) was preserved for me by the Prophet (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) and he did not make it known to any of his companions…..up until he (Tijaani) said: And perhaps he (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) delayed it due to the absence of one through whom Allaah would make it known.’’

So concerning his (i.e. Tijaani’s) statement: ‘’Indeed, this Wird was preserved for me by the Prophet (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) and he did not make it known to any of his companions’’ is a rejected of Allaah’s saying: [يَـٰٓأَيُّہَا ٱلرَّسُولُ بَلِّغۡ مَآ أُنزِلَ إِلَيۡكَ مِن رَّبِّكَ‌ۖ ] ‘’O Messenger (Muhammad)! Proclaim (the Message) which has been sent down to you from your Lord.’’ [5:67]

And it is well known that it is impossible for the Prophets to conceal (Allaah’s Message) because it is a betrayal of trust. And there is no doubt that attributing the (act of concealment) to the Prophet (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) is disbelief by consensus of the scholars.

And concerning his (i.e. Tijaani’s) statement: ‘’And perhaps he (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) delayed it due to the absence of one through whom Allaah would make it known.’’ This statement of his is tantamount to giving himself precedence over Abu-Bakr As-Siddeeq (radiyallaahu-anhu) because (Abu Bakr) was not able to receive this Wird. This is an extremely corrupt statement; rather is an extremely disrespectful speech. [2] [End of Quote]

[1] This Wird is called Salaatul Faatihah—an innovated Dhikr of Ahmad Tijaani practiced by his followers in West Africa (Gambia, Senegal etc) and other places in Africa.

[2]Al-Anwaar Ar-Rahmaaniyyah Li-Hidaayah Firqah At-Tijaaniyyah. Page: 13-14 by Shaikh Abdur-Rahmaan Al-Afreeqee (rahimahullaah)—a well-known scholar whose native country is Mali (West Africa), but he settled in Saudi.

Likewise, the Moroccan Scholar Al-Allaamah Taqiyudeen Al-Hilaali (rahimahullaah) wrote a Book against the Tijaaniyyah titled: Al-Hidaayatul Haadiyah Ilaa At-Tareeqah At-Tijaaniyyah.

Important Announcement: Sincerity and Donating – Salafi School/Al-Markaz As Salafi

Written by The Salafi Centre of Manchester on April 23, 2014. Posted in Announcements, Brotherhood, Methodology - 'Manhaj'.

Asalaamu alaykum Warahmatullaahi wabarakaatuhu

Pray all the brothers and sisters are well. May Allaah (The Most High) grant (us and them) beneficial knowledge, pure provision and righteous action.

We wish to make something very clear… It has come to Al Markaz As Salafi’s attention that some individuals wish to donate for Allaah’s sake. Then we encourage them to khayr (goodness) for indeed the reward is with Allah.

However we must bear in mind a very simple affair: Allaah is the One who will establish the project; whether that is through the hands of two people or two thousand people. Let no person with ulterior motives think that this school is a pet project for them; nor should anyone be oblivious to the fact that we will not bend to anyone’s whims and desires, simply because they gave something (little or plenty). What is most important is that we correct our intentions when giving for the sake of Allah, lest we lose any reward when doing so.

Likewise, let it be absolutely clear that money does not give a status or say in how we pursue the project. We will be consulting responsible and experienced people within the community and outside of it. The dawa has never been based on money nor are we in need of money for favours, or to heap praise on someone; brushing aside the sound manhaj positions to gather wealth.

By the Mercy of Allah, we have seen the fitnah and errors committed; all in the pursuit of money for a project. And so we will not fall [by Allah’s permission] to those same errors; neither compromising the sound Manhaj positions nor our stances towards those who deliberately seek to dilute the correct stances towards ahlul bidah. Donating is free for all to do and the reward is with Allah. How many children we have seen give in the projects established amongst the salafis around the country, let alone those who are wealthy. And it is Allah who records it and indeed, Allah is sufficient as a Helper and a Guardian.

Jazaakumullaahu khayran
