Whether He Advises With Joining Islāmic Groups | Shaykh ʿAbdul-ʿAzīz ibn Bāz The Questioner: Do you advise with joining the like of the various groups like the Ikhwān, the Tablīgh, Jamāʿah al-Jihād and so on and so forth or do you advise with remaining steadfast upon seeking knowledge along with the students of knowledge upon the Salafī call? Shaykh ʿAbdul-ʿAzīz ibn Bāz: “In the name of Allāh the Most Merciful Bestower of mercy and May the peace and blessings of Allāh be upon His Prophet Muḥammad. We advise all of them to unite upon a single word which is seeking knowledge and understanding of the Book (the Qurʾān) and the Sunnah while proceeding upon the methodology of the people of the Sunnah and the community (ahl al-sunnah wal-jamāʿah). We advise them all that they should make their goal following the Book (the Qurʾān) and the Sunnah while proceeding upon the methodology of the people of the Sunnah and the community (ahl al-sunnah wal-jamāʿah). And they should refer to themselves as the people of the Sunnah (ahl al-sunnah) or followers of the pious predecessors (atbāʿ al-salaf al-ṣāliḥ). As for the partisanship of the Muslim Brotherhood (al-Ikhwān al-Muslimīn) or the Tablīghī group or such & such; then we do not advise with it. This is a mistake. Rather, what we advise with is that they are a single body, a single group advising one another with the truth and patience upon it. And they should ascribe themselves to the Sunnah and the community (al-jamāʿah). This is the straight path which prevents differing.” Translated by: Abul-Layth Qāsim Mutiva
