Methodology of Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahaab
"Rather I only call Allah, only without partners, and appeal to the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah..."
Methodology of Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahaab:
First, all the perfect praise belongs to Allah - the so-called sect of Sufis, or any Faqiih [jurist], or any philosopher, or any magnet - imams to whom I have high esteem, as Ibn Al - Qayyim and Adh - Dhahabii e Ibn Kazir.
More but I only call Allah, only without partners, and appeal to the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allaah (Salla Allahu alayhi wa salam), of those who advised - the ancestors before the later among his Ummah to follow.
I hope never to reject the truth when I arrive, and not ask Allah nothing more than give testimony, y los angels, and all creatures, so when one word of truth cometh unto me, I will accept giving a welcome and without conditions.
And I'm going to throw against the wall, everything that is opposed to the truth of the statements of my imams-except the Messenger of Allaah (Salla Allahu alayhi wa salam wa), because it does not say anything else but the truth... ".
