The Methodology of the Prophets in Calling to Allah – That is the Way of Wisdom & Intelligence Calling to Allah is a very great honour which is not reached through ease, response and love of relaxation. It is not reached except through beneficial knowledge, righteous actions, deep understanding and careful following of the way of the Prophets in calling to Allaah.
In this book Shaykh Rabee’ ibn Haadee al-Madkhalee explains in detail the methodology of the Prophets in their call to Allaah. In it, he answers those questions which face every caller to the faith who wishes to follow the footsteps of the Prophets: What should his call begin with? What should he concentrate on? And what is the goal of his da’wah to Allaah?
After discussing the methodology of the Prophets in calling to Allaah, he compares it with the different methodologies employed by various contemporary da’wah groups and movements that have arisen in our time and highlights the stark contrast between these new, innovated methodologies and the pure and perfect Prophetic way.

Imam Muhammad Nasirud-Din Al-Albani
Stated Imaam Muhammad Naasirud Deen al-Albaanee, “It is inevitable that we must begin with at tafsiyah wat tarbiyah (purification and education). So any movement that has not been established upon this foundation, then there is no benefit in it at all. So in order to prove the soundness of the view that we have adopted concerning this manhaj, we return back to the Noble Book of Allaah…

The pristine beliefs of the early Muslims are preserved in this vitally important masterpiece written by one of the most outstanding scholars of our time.
Seven clear principles and their evidences from the Book and the Sunnah guide the reader through the confusion and false claims of the ignorant to the clarity of belief in Allaah’s Names accomplished by the righteous early scholars of Islaam.
Seven more principles and their evidences follow, giving the reader firm understanding of the correct beliefs about Allaah’s Attributes. Four more principles outline the correct approach in studying the related proofs and evidences.
All of this leads the reader into an enthralling series of refutations of the false notions of the Ash’aree sect, a text-by-text breakdown of how and why they went wrong in a careful and precise study of fifteen texts from the Book and the Sunnah. The beliefs of the Ash’aree sect are destroyed and the origins of their deviation are exposed for all to see.
“…A magnificent book… a clarification of the creed of the righteous Salaf concerning the Names and Attributes… great principles and collective benefits concerning the topic…”

This is the introduction to a short essay in jurisprudence (fiqh) by the Imām and Hāfiẓ ‘Abdullāh ibn ‘Abdur-Rahmān ibn Abī Zayd al-Qayrawānī upon the treatise of which he authored concerning the jurisprudence (fiqh) of Imām Mālik.
It has always been from the norm of the Salaf (X) that whenever they would author books in jurisprudence (fiqh) they would begin by clarifying the creed (‘aqīdah). Thus, they would divide it into [two parts]:
1. The greater affairs of jurisprudence (fiqh) al-akbar) which is understanding the correct creed (‘aqīdah).
2. The branches of jurisprudence (fiqh) al-furū’) which is the understanding of how to worship Allāh and dealings with the people.

The Mufti Shaykh ‘Abdul-‘Azīz Āl ash-Shaykh:
Causing corruption in the land by way of highway robbery, terrorizing the people, bombings, explosions, or hijacking planes, ships, and trains are from the major sins. The recompense for one who commits this crime is that he is either executed, imprisoned, or his limbs are cut off on opposite sides. Then, a more severe punishment will come from Allāh on the Day of judgment.

This is an explanation of the methodology that was followed by the earliest Muslims: how they understood and implemented their Religion. It is Islam the way Allaah intended for it to be practiced. The noble Shaykh, Muhammad Baazmool also discusses how the Salafi Methodology is truly the moderate way of practicing Islam, free from the extremism of terrorists and the like.
This is a book that was written concerning the Salafi methodology, its definition, distinct characteristics and its call towards rectification. I have compiled it to include three primary objectives and a conclusion.
The First Objective: The definition of the Salafi Methodology, its principles, the ruling concerning adhering to it and the mention of its virtue.
The Second Objective: The distinguishing characteristics of the Salafi methodology.
The Third Objective: The way to achieve rectification according to the people of the Sunnah and the Jama’ah.
The Conclusion: Words of some of the imams pertaining to adhering to the sunnah and learning the religion.

The book that lies in front of you – dear reader – is a concise expression of sound ’Aqeedah from one of its earliest sources. Sharhus-Sunnah was penned by the Noble Imaam Ismaaeel Ibn Yahyaa al-Muzanee (d.264H) – the student of Imaam ash-Shaafi’ee (d.204H) – over a millenium ago. In this return to the earliest sources of Islaam, the Imaam covers all of the foundational issues of faith in Islaam including, Allaah’s ascendancy over the creation, the Qadr (pre-decree), Eem&aan, the Qur‘aan, the Attributes of Allaah, the Resurrection, Seeing Allaah in the Hereafter, the Companions and much more.
The ancient text has been explained by the former Muftee of the Jeezaaan province in Saudi Arabia, al-’Allaamah Ahmad Ibn Yahyaa an-Najmee (d.1429H). The commentary is included to make this work comprehensible and clear to the average Muslim reader. Additional notes have been added from various printings of Sharhus-Sunnah to provide a comprehensive and historical context to the benefits contained herein. So we hope – as Imaam al-Muzanee hoped – that this book will, “clarify to you from the Sunnah an affair that you may make yourself patient in adherence to it and avert thereby the doubtful sayings and the deviation in the newly-invented affairs of the misguided ones.”
