 | | Salafis themselves insist that their beliefs are simply pure Islam as practiced by the first three generations of Muslims and that they should not be regarded as a sect. | | | Salafi - a term used to describe a modernist group of Muslims led by Al-Afghani and Muhammad Abduh at the turn of the 19th to 20th centuries common era. | | | Salafi scholars dont teach the followers of the salaf to worship them the way shia do but they only love them and respect them for being true followers of Islam and form the household of the Prophet. |

| | Alliance For Security - Who are the Salafis? |
| | The Salafis look to this early period of Islam as the definitive source of religious authority, urging their fellow Muslims to adopt this interpretation of Islam as a means of finding a route out of the many problems that have beset Muslim societies throughout the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. | | | A Salafi gives a literalist interpretation of the early Islamic faith as lived by the Prophet Mohammed, his companions and the generations of scholars that followed him. | | | But in the modern era, Salafi has come to denote a Muslim who adheres to the early and literal doctrines of Islam. |

| | Wiktorowiczq, "The New Global Threat" |
| | The term “salafi” derives from the Arabic salaf, which means “to precede.” In the Islamic lexicon, salaf refers to the Companions of the Prophet Mohammed and generally includes the first three generations of Muslims who learned about Islam directly from the messenger of God or those who knew him. | | | The goal of the Salafi movement is to eradicate these innovations by returning to the pure form of Islam practiced by the Prophet and his Companions. | | | Because of this connection to the Prophet and the divine revelations, Salafis believe that the Companions enjoyed a pure understanding of the religion. |

| | An Introduction to the Salafi Da'wah |
| | The leader of all Salafis is Muhammad (S). | | | This, in essence, is the call of all the Prophets: calling to the Tawhid of Allah, to the annihilation of shirk, to sincerity in His worship, to obedience to His Messengers, and to adherence to their way. | | | A true Salafi values Tawhid, singling out Allah in all acts of worship: in supplication, in seeking aid, in seeking refuge in times of ease and hardship, in sacrifice, in making vows, in fearing and hoping and total reliance, and so on. |

| | Practical Sufism |
| | The Salafi response to the problem of making Islam relevant in the modern world is to proclaim, "Islam is simple," and to reduce religious consciousness to a calculus of ritual obligations, external symbols of group identity (such as modern "Islamic" dress), and political doctrines that promote cultural and creedal exclusivism13. | | | The Salafi polemic began early in the history of Sufism, and is often associated with the anti-Sufi arguments of Hanbali scholars, such as Ibn al-Jawzi (d. | | | Although Salafi ideologues are often nostalgic for the past glory of Islamic civilization, they seldom mention that this glory was built on foundations – such as those provided by Sufism and other traditional Islamic disciplines like Kalam and Falsafa – that have mostly been rejected by present-day reformers. |

| | Who or what is a Salafi and is their approach valid? |
| | The term "Salafi" was revived as a slogan and movement, among latter-day Muslims, by the followers of Muhammad Abduh (the student of Jamal al-Din al-Afghani) some thirteen centuries after the Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace), approximately a hundred years ago. | | | Like similar movements that have historically appeared in Islam, its basic claim was that the religion had not been properly understood by anyone since the Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace) and the early Muslims--and themselves. | | | What comes to many peoples minds these days when one says "Salafis" is bearded young men arguing about din. |

| | Ahl As Sunnah vs The Salafi Movement |
| | Finally, the author turns to the linchpin of "Salafi" philosophy: leaving the ijma` of the true Salaf in declaring unbelievers all Muslims who use the Prophet Muhammad's intercession, Peace be upon him, as a wasila or means of blessing. | | | The adherents of this movement call themselves "Salafi." Such an appellation is baseless since the true Salaf knew no such school as the "Salafi" school nor even called themselves by that name; the only general name they recognized for themselves was that of Muslim. | | | It is the duty of all Muslims to ascertain that the mosques of Allah continue as centers of sound Islamic practice, not "Salafi" practice. |

| | Islam Online - Fatwa |
| | Although it is clear that there are different inclinations for different Salafis, the term Salafi is usually ascribed to those who gave priority to the apparent meaning of the text in deducing rulings from their original sources. | | | Hence, the Salafi is the one who emulates those who are well-versed in religious knowledge. | | | They went to the extent in saying that the literal meaning of a religious text should be given priority over qiyas (analogical deduction), personal judgement and other rational mechanisms, which are used in deducing legal rulings. |

| | Moving From Salafi to Rationalist Education |
| | The salafi school relies on the authority of the literal religious text in its superficial form, steering clear of any interpretation which takes into account an historical reading of the text. | | | Open religious rationalism--subjecting the religious text to rational investigation and research--ought to become the core of the aspired religious education in the Arab-Islamic region, since it is absurd to believe the text and deny reality. | | | The first is religious self-sufficient narcissism which considers itself in no need of any kind of self-renovation, on the pretext that "The first left nothing to the last." This concept dominated the Sunni Salafi jurisprudence of the Middle Ages, which is based upon the superficial literal text, and excludes any interpretation thereof. |
