kufr beliefs of salafi/wahabis chief ibn taymiyyah.
many of the scholars refuted Ibn tamiyyah and which wahabis quoted later turned away from their previous viewpoint and went to the extent of labeling Ibn Taymiyyah with Kufr, one such example is of Mullah Ali Qari (rah) who in his later work i.e. Sharh ash-Shifa accepted Ibn Taymiyyah to be indulged in Kufr. However this time our motive will be to expose Ibn Taymiyyah from his own writings so that the blind lovers of Ibn Taymiyyah are left with no excuse to defend this Mubtadi.
Ibn Taymiyyah compared Allah’s existence to that of Moon/Sun
Let us first see this beautiful hadith of Bukhari:
Volume 1, Book 12, Number 720: (Sahih Bukhari)
Narrated Ibn ‘Umar:The Prophet saw expectoration in the direction of the Qibla of the mosque while he was leading the prayer, and scratched it off. After finishing the prayer, he said, “Whenever any of you is in prayer ”HE SHOULD KNOW THAT ALLAH IS IN FRONT OF HIM” . So none should spit in front of him in the prayer.”
** This hadith goes against the Aqida of Ibn Taymiyyah so here is complete quote from Sharh al Aqida al Wastiyyah (Translated by Muhammad Rafiq Khan, Published by leading Salafi Publishing house i.e. Dar us Salam and I have the book right infront of me)**
Ibn Taymiyyah compared Allah to Moon/Sun
Sheikh ul Islam has said in Al-Aqeedatul Hamawiyah that the hadith is true in its manifest meaning that Allah the Exalted is over the Throne and that He is ” IN FRONT OF THE FACE OF THE WORSHIPPER” This attribute is in fact proved for the “CREATURE ALSO” that if man prays to the heavens or to the “SUN OR THE MOON” then heaven, the sun and the moon will be “ABOVE HIM AND ALSO IN FRONT OF HIS FACE”
.
.
Reference: Sharh al Aqida al Wastiyyah, Page No. 140 – Last Paragraph
Here Ibn Taymiyyah is putting Allah and the creation on par and saying that just like Sun and Moon also come in-front of us similarly Allah is above the heaven but also comes in-front of us… Audhobillah Min Dhalik!! This concept is directly against Surah al-Ikhlaas which states: “And there is none comparable unto Him. (112:4)
And also against this Quranic ayah: (He is) the Creator of the heavens and the earth:He has made for you pairs from among yourselves, and pairs among cattle: by this means does He multiply you: ”THERE IS NOTHING WHATEVER LIKE UNTO HIM”and He is the One that hears and sees (all things).(42:11)
If Salafis are persistent to defend Ibn Taymiyyah then I ask them to prove Ibn Taymiyyah’s repentance from this concept.
Now let me come towards the second great blunder made by Ibn Taymiyyah, It is often said that Ibn Taymiyyah was Ghustakh (degrader) of Prophet (Peace be upon him) and his Ahlul Bayt, now there are variety of issues where he has gone over the board and disrespected the Prophet, for example his rejection of Waseela is also a Ghustakhi but I will not talk about such issues because on this people can argue but I will give a proof which will prove that Ibn Taymiyyah “OPENED ALL DOORS OF DISRESPECT IN COURT OF PROPHET” and nobody before him had ever made such vulgar claims!
He forbade travel to Qabr Shareef of Prophet
Ibn Taymiyyah forbade “TRAVELLING TO VISIT THE GRAVE OF PROPHET (PEACE BE UPON HIM)” yes hear it again, Ibn Taymiyyah forbade travelling to visit the grave of Prophet. Now being Muslims you would be wondering how could someone forbid the visit to grave of Prophet which is amongst the holiest of Muslim places? A place for which we can die and spend our whole lives just to have a glimpse of it.
Ibn Taymiyyah being hasty in hadith (as approved even by Albani) used this hadith as proof:
Narrated Abu Huraira: The Prophet said, “Do not set out on a journey except for three Mosques i.e. Al-Masjid-AI-Haram, the Mosque of Allah’s Apostle , and the Mosque of Al-Aqsa, (Mosque of Jerusalem).”[Sahih Bukhari 2:281]
And he claimed that travelling to visit the grave of Prophet (Peace be upon him) is Haram (Naudhobillah), now this is proof of utter ignorance because If this hadith is taken literally then travelling of any sort to other places would become Haram, for example travelling for trade, travelling for seeking knowledge, Jihad etc…
Regarding this outrageous fatwa of Ibn Taymiyyah Imam Ibn Hajr al Asqalani (rah) said in his magnificent Fath ul Bari Sharh Sahih ul Bukhari:
ابن تيمية بتحريم شد الرحل إلى زيارة قبر سيدنا رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم وأنكرنا صورة ذلك، وفي شرح ذلك من الطرفين طول، وهي من أبشع المسائل المنقولة عن ابن تيمية
Translation: Ibn Taymiyyah declared it haram to travel for visitng the grave of Sayyidna Rusul Ullah (صلى الله عليه وسلم ), and of shorterning the prayer there. (Ibn Hajr al Asqalani said): “THIS IS THE UGLIEST MATTER EVER REPORTED FROM IBN TAYMIYYAH” [Ibn Hajr al Asqalani, Fath ul Bari Sharh Sahih ul Bukhari, Volume No.3, Page No. 386, Published by Dar ul Fikr, Beirut, Lebanon]
Imam Ibn Hajr’s strong refutation of Ibn Taymiyyah
Then after analyzing this matter deeply Imam Ibn Hajr al Asqalani (rah) said:
فيبطل بذلك قول من منع شد الرحال إلى زيارة القبر الشريف وغيره من قبور الصالحين والله أعلم
Translation: The Qawl of him is proven Batil (فيبطل) who says it is forbidden to make journey towards ‘’Qabr Shareef’’ and other “GRAVES OF SALIHEEN (قبور الصالحين)”[ibid]
Before I write Sharh of that hadith from other Shariheen, I want to ask all Salafis whether Ibn Taymiyyah was Bidati or Imam Ibn Hajr al Asqalani (rah) who called this “THE UGLIEST MATTER EVER REPORTED FROM IBN TAYMIYYAH” and even allowed travelling to visit graves of other Saliheen was bidati?
Imam Jalal ud din Suyuti (rah), the Mujaddad of his time said: Except for these 3 mosques other mosques should not be travelled ‘’for attaining more thawaab’’, however to visit the Qabr of a Salih (righteous man) and travelling for other purposes is not included in this prohibition, this is known from riwaya of Musnad Ahmed which states that the Prophet (Peace be upon him) said: To set out on a journey towards any mosque “FOR PRAYING SALAAT” there is not allowed except for Masjid ul Harram, Masjid al Aqsa and mine. [Imam Jalal ud-din Suyuti, Sharah Sunnan Ibn Majah (1/102)]
Imam Nawawi (rah) beautifully said:
قال القاضي : وقوله صلى الله عليه وسلم : ( وهو يأرز إلى المدينة ) معناه أن الإيمان أولا وآخرا بهذه الصفة لأنه في أول الإسلام كان كل من خلص إيمانه وصح إسلامه أتى المدينة , إما مهاجرا مستوطنا , وإما متشوقا إلى رؤية رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم ومتعلما منه ومتقربا ثم بعده هكذا في زمن الخلفاء كذلك , ولأخذ سيرة العدل منهم والاقتداء بجمهور الصحابة رضوان الله عليهم فيها ثم من بعدهم من العلماء الذين كانوا سرج الوقت وأئمة الهدى لأخذ السنن المنتشرة بها عنهم فكان كل ثابت الإيمان منشرح الصدر به يرحل إليها ثم بعد ذلك في كل وقت إلى زماننا لزيارة قبر النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم والتبرك بمشاهده وآثاره وآثار أصحابه الكرام فلا يأتيها إلا مؤمن هذا كلام القاضي
It is even allowed to travel for graves of Awliya!
Translation: Qadhi Iyaad (rah) said: The Messenger of Allah (Peace be upon him) said: (Imaan) returns to Madina, this means that the attribute of Faith in the beginning and last would remain same, because in the beginning of Islam every person whose Faith and Islam were pure they used to visit Madina as an immigrant or just for the sight of Prophet (Peace be upon him), or to learn from Prophet or to attain his nearness. Then in the time of Khulafa ar Rashideen the People with faith had the same attitude so that they can learn justice from them as the rule of majority of Companions was also there (in Madina). After the rightly guided caliphs, the scholars who were Lamps and Imams of guidance kept on coming to gather Prophetic sayings from them, therefore every true believer who was firm in belief kept on travelling towards Madina, then after these Scholars till today people come for “Ziyarah of Grave of Prophet (Peace be upon him) in order to obtain Blessings (Tabarruk) from left overs of Prophet and Sahaba” so Only that person comes to Madina who is a true believer.[Sharh Sahih Muslim by Imam al-Nawawi (2/144), Published by Dar ul Fikr, Beirut, Lebanon]
Mullah Ali Qari (rah) quotes Imam al Ghazzali (rah) the Proof of Islam who in his exceptional work Ihya Uloom ud Din said: ” In my sight this hadith actually orders to visit Maqabir of Saliheen” because Prophet (Peace be upon him) said: I used to forbid you from visiting graves but now I allow you [Agreed upon], however in the hadith [travelling to 3 mosques] it is forbidden to travel to other mosques ‘’just for the sake of seeking more Thawaab’’, so except for these three Masajid thawaab in every other mosque is same, as a matter of fact there is no population on earth where they don’t have a masjid so why would anyone specifically travel to a mosque which is far for attaining more thawaab, “but the Maqabir are not equal in virtue rather the virtue of visiting them depends on the piety.
The Forgery of Salafis caught once again!
..and virtue of the one who is burined inside the Qabr, It is a shame that some people forbid travelling towards qaboor of even Ibrahim (a.s), Hadrat Musa (a.s) and Hadrat Yahya (a.s), to stop others from visiting qaboor is a strange act [Mullah Ali Qari, Mirqat Sharh al Mishqaat (2/190)]
This leaves behind no doubt that not only travelling to visit graves of Prophets but also “TRAVELING TO VISIT GRAVES OF AWLIYA” is allowed in sight of greatest commentators of Sahihayn and leading authorities, so according to Salafis not only Ibn Taymiyyah should become Bidati but also all these great scholars should turn out to be Mushrikeen who allowed travelling to visit the “SHRINES OF AWLIYA”
The outrageous verdict of Ibn Taymiyyah is so blindly followed by Salafis that they even forged the text of Imam al Nawawi (rah) and everywhere Imam Nawawi mentioned “QABR” they changed it to “MOSQUE” in order to make him correspond to fatwa of Ibn Taymiyyah (i.e. it is fine to make intention for mosque but not grave)
Imam al Mujtahid Muhayuddin Abi Zakriyyah Yahya bin Sharaf al Nawawi (Rahimuhullah) said in his Kitab al Adhkaar:
They forged to text to defend Ibn Taymiyyah
Translation: “Section: The Visit to the Tomb of the Messenger of Allah (Allah Bless Him and Give Him Peace), and the Remembrances of Allah Made There”
Know that “Everyone” who performs the hajj “Should set out” (اعلم أنه ينبغي لكل من حجّ)to visit the Messenger of Allah(Allah bless him and give him peace), “Whether it is on one’s way or not” (سواء كان ذلك طريقه أو لم يكن), for visiting him (Allah bless him and give him peace) is one of the most important acts of worship, the most rewarded of efforts, and best of goals.
When one sets out to perform the visit, one should do much of the blessings and peace upon him (Allah bless him and give him peace) on the way. And when one’s eye falls on the trees of Medina, and its sanctum and landmarks, one should increase saying the blessings and peace upon the Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace), “Asking Allah Most High to benefit one by one’s visit to him” (Allah bless him and give him peace) [وسألَ اللّه تعالى أن ينفعَه بزيارته صلى اللّه عليه وسلم], and grant one felicity in this world and the next through it. One should say, “O Allah, open for me the doors of Your mercy, and bestow upon me, through the visit to the tomb of Your prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace)[اللَّهُمَّ افْتَحْ عَليَّ أبْوَابَ رَحْمَتِكَ وَارْزُقْنِي في زِيارَةِ قَبْرِ نَبِيِّكَ], that which You have bestowed upon Your friends, those who obey You. Forgive me and show me mercy, O Best of Those Asked” (Imam al-Nawawi in Kitab ul-Adhkar, Page # 178)
Conclusion!
Now Salafis not only forged the translation but they forged the actual Arabic of this statement, they changed “EVERYONE SHOULD” into “IT IS PREFERABLE” and everywhere there is mention of “GRAVE” they changed it to “MOSQUE” and finally they removed the whole passage in which Imam Nawawi (rah) is proving “WASEELA” through Prophet (Peace be upon him).
This forgery has been done in the 1409/1988 printing of this work, published by Dar al-Huda in Riyad, Saudi Arabia, under the inspection and approval of the Riyasa Idara al-Buhuth al-‘Ilmiyya wa al-Ifta’ or “Presidency of Supervision of Scholarly Studies and Islamic Legal Opinion but they were caught doing cheating red-handed.
Now the Salafis instead of running towards Aqwaal of Ulama should concentrate on the sayings of Ibn Taymiyyah himself, and they should stop doing taqlid and accept openly that Ibn Taymiyyah was a misguided Bidati.
Ibn Taymiyyah contradicts the Prophet
In another community this same asim guy is arguing with couple of ignorant people that this following wording of Ibn Taymiyyah as said in his book At-Tawassul wal Waseela:
وكذلك الأنبياء والصالحون، وإن كانوا أحياء في قبورهم،
It means: Similarly the prophets and righteous people, and even if they were alive in their graves…
Here asim is himself trying to claim that Ibn Taymiyyah was not sure about Hayaat of Anbiya in their respective graves, asim is proudly claiming that Ibn Taymiyyah used the wording “EVEN IF”
Now here is reply from Prophet (Peace be upon him)
حدثنا أبو الجهم الأزرق بن علي حدثنا يحيى بن أبي بكير حدثنا المستلم بن سعيد عن الحجاج عن ثابت البناني عن أنس بن مالك : قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم : الأنبياء أحياء في قبورهم يصلون
إسناده صحيح
رواه أبو يعلى والبزار ورجال أبي يعلى ثقات
إسناده صحيح
رواه أبو يعلى والبزار ورجال أبي يعلى ثقات
Translation: On the authority of Anas the Prophet (Peace be upon him) said: The Prophets are alive in their graves and praying [Musnad Abu Ya’la with Sahih Isnad, Volume No.6, Page No. 147, Hadith No. 3428] –
Imam al-Haythami after this hadith said: Abu Ya’la and Bazzar narrated it and all the narrators of Abu Ya’la are“THIQA” [Majma al Zawaid Volume 8, Page No. 386, Hadith No. 13812]
So I give full credit to Asim that Ibn Taymiyyah said “EVEN IF” but on the other hand our beloved Prophet (Peace be upon him) is clearly saying that “PROPHETS ARE ALIVE AND PRAYING IN THEIR GRAVES” so Salafis may Ibn Taymiyyah be Mubarak to you whereas Prophet (Peace be upon him) is ours and we are followers of Quran and Sunnah whereas you people blindly follow Ibn Taymiyyah.
Reply to a confused person called Hunter!
Let me refute this person called hunter along, incase people do not know him then let me introduce him. This Hunter guy who also has a fake profile with name of Zulqarnain he claims to be “Hanafi Muqalid who does tark of Raf al Yaddain (note raful yaddain is the top most masla of wahabis in fiqh)” and in Aqida he respects the stance of Sheikh ul Akbar Muhayuddin Ibn Arabi (rah), also note that Ibn Arabi (rah) is outright kafir in sight of Wahabis, this hunter also considers Ibn Taymiyyah to be deeply mistaken on variety of issues (not only in fiqh but aqida) but still he keeps on defending Ibn Taymiyyah because for him Aqida is not important but love of Ibn Taymiyyah is.
He himself said after seeing the absurd aqida of Ibn Taymiyyah comparing Allah to the moon/sun: Note: I personally disagree with the statement of Sheikh ul Islam but even it is not Shirk Because Imam Abu Hanifa Hold the Same Belief (that of Ibn e Taymiya (RA)).
Alhamdulillah he first accepted to disagree with this absurd aqida of Ibn Taymiyyah, but in the same passage he made a big Buhtaan on Imam al Adham Abu Hanifa (rah) that he had the same belief that Allah comes in-front of us just like Sun and Moon come infront of us… Audhobillah Min Dhalik, now hunter please do not sidetrack and go towards other issues, first prove that Imam Abu Hanifa (rah) also said that Allah’s existence is like that of Moon/Sun coming infront of us!
The Lord of Ibn Taymiyyah puts his Foot in Hell!
This is just the beginning and I wanted Salafis to come towards teachings of Ibn Taymiyyah. They often misguide people by quoting other scholars but they always hide the actual teachings of Ibn Taymiyyah because they know teachings of Ibn Taymiyyah were absurd.
Now here is another shocker for Salafis.
It states in same “Sharh al Aqidat-il-Wastiyyah”
The Prophet (صلى الله عليه وسلم) says that people will be constantly thrown into Hell but it will go on asking if there are some more. Thus, Allah the Lord of Might “WILL PUT HIS FOOT IN IT” and in one narrative it has occoured that “HE WILL PUT HIS STEP IN IT” and Hell get contracted and say, ‘Enough, enough.’ (Al-Bukhari 6/353)
(Ibn Taymiyyah explained): The Hadith afffirms that Allah possesses “FEET AND STEPS” and this attribute is exactly like other attributes. This will be proved worthy of the Grandeur of Allah. The rationale behind putting “THE STEP INTO HELL” is that Allah has promised that He will fill up Hell. [Sharh al-Aqidat-il-Wastiyah, Page No. 136, Published by Dar us Salaam, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia]
Here Ibn Taymiyyah is literally affirming that Allah will place his foot “IN HELL” Audhobillah Min Dhalik whereas classical scholars have rightly explained that Al-Qadam mentioned in this hadith refers to “PREVIOUS ONES” like we say “Mutaqadimeen”
Hafidh Ibn al-Jawzi (rah) explains this hadith as:
In considering this hadith, it is our duty to believe that God’s essence, Mighty and Majestic, does not divide into parts, “PLACE CANNOT CONTAIN IT” and it cannot be characterized by change and going from one place to another. Abu Ubayd al-Harawi (rah) related that Hasan al-Basri (rah) said: “Al-Qadam (literally a foot)” is a reference to “THOSE FROM THE WORST OF GOD’S CREATURES WHO HAVE BEEN EARMARKED AND DESIGNATED FOR HELL…
Abu Manzur al-Azhari (rah) said: “Al-Qadam” are those who have been preordained to reside everlastingly in the Fire. And things that have been placed out in front are refered to in Arabic as “Qadam” while things that have been demolished are called “Hadam” … How feeble minded this belief is (of Allah literally putting foot in hell)! Be it “FAR REMOVED FROM THE CREATOR” ..GOD IS EXALTED ABOVE THE FOOLISHNESS OF THOSE WHO LIKEN HIM TO A HUMAN BODY” [Ibn Jawzi in Daf’ Shubah al-Tashbih bi-Akaff al-Tanzih, Page No.78-80]
So Shame on Ibn Taymiyyah for literally putting the foot of Allah in Hell fire … AstaghfirUllah!
Ibn Taymiyyah’s hatred for Ahlul Bayt
After proving his absurd Aqida about Existance of Allah being like Sun/Moon (Naudhobillah), Allah literally putting his “FEET IN HELL FIRE” (Naudhobillah) and his utter disrespect in court of Prophet (Peace be upon him) by forbidding even travel to visit his grave.
Now let me come towards his disrespect in the court of Ahlul Bayt.
The Ahlus Sunnah wal Jammah and even Salafis of today accept the hadith of Prophet (Peace be upon him) which states: “For Whosoever I am Mawla then Ali is his Mawla: References: Sunnan Tirmidhi 6:79 (#3713), Sunnan Ibn Majah (Hadith # 124), Musnad Ahmed bin Hanbal (Hadith # 642, 953, 964, 1323, 18967, 22563,22724, 22760) Sunnan Nasai al Kubra (Hadith # 8051), Mussanaf Ibn Abi Shaybah (Hadith # 27808) and many others.
This hadith is narrated by so many companions that it is “MUTAWATTIR” however Ibn Taymiyyah being ignorant as he was declared this hadith as “DAEEF AND FORGED” and this proves his utter hatred for Mawla Ali (ra)
Even Nasir ud-din Albani after declaring this hadith as “SAHIH” exposed Ibn Taymiyyah on this issue and said:
Nasir ud-din Albani exposes Ibn Taymiyyah’s ignorance in hadith methodology
أنني رأيت شيخ الإسلام بن تيمية , قد ضعف الشطر الأول من الحديث , و أما
الشطر الآخر , فزعم أنه كذب! و هذا من مبالغته الناتجة في تقديري من تسرعه
في تضعيف الأحاديث قبل أن يجمع طرقها و يدقق النظر فيها
الشطر الآخر , فزعم أنه كذب! و هذا من مبالغته الناتجة في تقديري من تسرعه
في تضعيف الأحاديث قبل أن يجمع طرقها و يدقق النظر فيها
Translation: When I saw Sheikh ul Islam Ibn Taymiyah considering the Hadith (For whosoever I am Mawla then Ali is his Mawla) as weak/doubtful in its first half and “LIE IN ITS SECOND” then I had to write in length over this issue. In my viewpoint, the reason behind such exaggeration (of Ibn Taymiyah) was that he used to be hasty in deciding the inauthenticity of some Hadiths before seeing them properly [Silsilat ul Ahadith as-Sahiha, Volume No.4, Page No. 344]
Now this is the worth of Ibn Taymiyyah that even Albani exposed him and proved him hasty !
The misquotation by blind lover of Ibn Taymiyyah
A person with the name of hunter cleverly quoted Fiqh al Akbar and said:Now I don’t Want batil Taweelat of this clearcut statement, Neither one should utter the silly statement like Fiqh ul Akbar Was Not Written By Imam Abu Hanifa
Please note at the red highlighted part, now the same person asim whom hunter is praising, he said to me on phone that Fiqh ul Akbar is not written by Imam Abu Hanifa (rah), so hunter your own guru rejects Fiqh ul akbar when things go against him and this proves double faced nature of your wahabi sect. I ask hunter to provide me the complete chain of book Fiqh ul Akbar reaching back to Imam al Azam Abu Hanifa (rah)
Secondly nowhere is it mentioned in your reference that Allah will literally put his foot in hell fire, (Naudhobillah), I have explained through Imam al Hafidh Ibn Jawzi (rah) that Allah is pure of such a thing and the literal meaning of Qadam will not be taken.
Anyways Hunter misquoted from Fiqh ul Akbar, actually same book has negated this but as obviously people like hunter can only misquote to fool people.
It states right before the passage which hunter blindly quoted: God knows, but not as we know; He has power, but not as we have power; He sees, but not as we see; He hears, but not as we hear; and He speaks, but not as we speak. We speak by means of the speech organs and sounds, whereas God Most High speaks with “NEITHER ORGANS NOR SOUNDS” Sounds are created, and the word of God Most High is uncreated. He is a thing, but unlike other things; by saying “thing,” we intend merely to affirm His reality. ”HE HAS NEITHER A BODY NOR SUBSTANCE, NEITHER ACCIDENTAL PROPERYY NOR LIMIT”, neither opposite nor like nor similitude. [Fiqh al Akbar. Point # 4]
.
.
Why did you hide this part mr hunter? Without this part the next part which you quoted is meaningless rather this does Nafi of next…
Ibn Taymiyyah changing the wording of hadith
So even if assuming Fiqh ul Akbar is written by Imam Abu Hanifa, It does not mean he had similar aqida like Ibn Taymiyyah the anthropomorphist. And kindly tell me do you really believe that “ALLAH SHALL LITERALLY PUT HIS FOOT IN HELL FIRE” is this the Allah you worship who puts his foot in hell fire literally (Naudhobillah)?
Above all how on earth did Ibn Taymiyyah change a “Singular foot” into “PLURAL FEET” this itself proves extreme Tajseem of Ibn Taymiyyah and he ventured out of Ahlus Sunnah by making taweel (i.e. chainging singal foot into plural feet)
Ibn Taymiyyah’s hatred for Sayyidah Fatima (ra)
Now It is clear that Ibn Taymiyyah was an anthropomorphist and also degrader of Prophet (Peace be upon him), so let us again come towards his disrespect towards Ahlul Bayt.
He (Ibn Taimiyah) Writes:
فإن أبا بكر إمام ل يتصرف لنفسه بل للمسلمين ، والمال لم يأخذه لنفسه بل للمسلمين، وفاطمة تطلب لنفسها
Translation: Verily Abu Bakr is an Imam who did not act for himself but for the Muslims and as for the money, he did not take it for himself but for the Muslimswhilst Fatima was demanding it for her “NAFS” [Minhaj al-Sunnah, Volume 005, Page No. 522]
Audhobillah Min Dhalik !!… Remember It is correct to say that Sayyidna Abu Bakr (ra) was right in his perspective because he knew from Rusul Ullah (Salallaho alaihi wasalam) that property of Anbiya is not inherited but this does not mean we say that Fatima (ra) was asking for money for her “NAFS” This will actually be direct Ghustakhi of Prophet (Peace be upon him) because he said in a rigorously authentic hadith:
Volume 5, Book 57, Number 61: (Sahih Bukhari)
Narrated Al-Miswar bin Makhrama: Allah’s Apostle said, “Fatima is a part of me, andhe who makes her angry, makes me angry.”
Shah Abdul Aziz in Fatawa Azizi Volume 2 page 79:
“The pen of Ibn Taymeeya in Minhaaj at some points is so atrocious, in particular his views on Ahl’ul bayt where he has sought to play down their merits, prohibits visiting the tomb of Rasulullah (s), is opposed to Saints and condemns the Sufis. According to the views of Ahl’ul Sunnah his pen is cursed, his writings cannot deemed to be those of the Ahl’ul Sunnah”
-
Ibn Hajar al Haytami said in his al-Fatawa al-Hadithiyya (pp. 47-49) :
“Ibn Taymiyya was a servant whom Allah abandoned, misguided, blinded, deafened, and humiliated. This has been frankly expressed by the Imams who explained the corruptness of how he was, and the mendacity of what he said. Whoever wants tocheck this should read the words of the Mujtahid Imam, whose Imamate, greatness, and having reached the rank of Ijtihad are universally acknowledged, Abul Hasan (Taqi al-Din) al-Subki; together with his son Taj (al-Din as-Subki), Imam al-’Izz Ibn Jama’a, the scholars of their time, and other Shafi’i, Maliki and Hanafi scholars.

Ibn Taimiyah believed that Genus is eternal

If He (God) wants, He can sit on a mosquito’s back.
Ibn Taimiyah cited this text from Sheikh al-Daremi and he wrote that and he believed in it. We read in Al-Beshara wa al-Ethaf Allamah by Hassan al-Saqqaf, page 21:

We conclude that it was eyesight as it is in the Sahih narration from Qutada from Ikrama from Ibn Abbas said that the Prophet said : ‘I saw my God in image of beardless (man), with long curly hair in a green garden’
Ibn Taimiyah believed that Allah (swt) swings on ropes to get to his intended destination
We read in Majmo’a al-Fatawa, Volume 2 page 76:
{ or you shall come back to our faith} and for Shu’aib’s reply {What! though we dislike (it)} and His statement {Indeed we shall have forged a lie against Allah If we go back to your religion} and this proves they were on their religion. And for His statement {after Allah has delivered us from It} that proves that Allah saved them from it after they get polluted by it.
Ibn Taimiyah believed in adult suckling
We read in Fatawa Nur Ala Aldarb by Ibn Uthaimeen, Volume 10 page 204”
واختار شيخ الإسلام ابن تيميه رحمه الله التفصيل وقال إذا دعت الحاجة إلى إرضاع الكبير وأرضع ثبت التحريم
“Sheikh ul-Islam ibn Taimiyah (may Allah’s mercy be upon him) chose to explain in detail and said that if the breast suckling by an adult was necessary and he suckled, then the prohibition (of marriage) is established.”

A huge mistake by Ibn Taimiyah that is unforgivable, unless he repented prior to death, was his likening the anger of Lady Fatima az-Zahra (may Allah be pleased with) towards as-Siddiq (may Allah be pleased with) with the anger of hypocrites.

Ibn Hajar al-Haythami, said
أحدث ابن تيمية ما أحدث في أصول العقائد ونقض من دعائم الإسلام الأركان والمعاقد بعد أن كان مستترا بتبعية الكتاب والسنة مظهرا أنه داع إلى الحق هاد إلى الجنة فخرج عن الاتباع إلى الابتداع وشذ عن جماعة المسلمين بمخالفة الاجماع

“When Ibn Taimiyah caused what he caused in ideology and abolished the pillars of Islam after which he pretended to be an adherent of the Book and Sunnah, and pretended that he was an advocate for truth and guiding others to heaven, he went astray and (went) towards originating a heresy, and became odd by contradicting the Ijma of Muslims.”
in a book Al-Tawfiq al-Rabani written by a group of Sunni scholars, page 32:
We read in Dare Tarud al-Aqel wa al-Naqel by ibn Taimiyah, Volume 1 page 310:
وأما أكثر أهل الحديث ومن وافقهم فإنهم لا يجعلون النوع حادثا بل قديما
Verily the majority of Ahlulhadith and who ever agrees with them, don’t consider Genus as created, nay they believe it to be eternal.
Ibn Taimiyah believed in the extinguishing of hell fire
We read in al-Beshara wa al-Ethaf by Allamah Hassan al-Saqqaf, page 13:
ثبت ان ابن تيمية يقول بفناء النار
“It is proven that ibn Taimiyah believed in the extinguishing of hell fire.”

Ibn Taimiyah believed that the prophet will sit next to Allah (swt) on the throne
Majmo’a al-Fatawa, Volume 4 page 374:
فَقَدْ حَدَثَ الْعُلَمَاءُ الْمَرْضِيُّونَ وَأَوْلِيَاؤُهُ الْمَقْبُولُونَ : أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُجْلِسُهُ رَبُّهُ عَلَى الْعَرْشِ مَعَهُ .
The reliable and acceptable scholars narrated that, God shall make Muhammad the messenger of Allah sit next to Him [swt] on the throne.
Al-Nahr al-Mad by Abu Hayan, Volume 1 page 254:
وقرأت في كتاب لأحمد بن تيمية هذا الذي عاصرنا وهو بخطه سماه كتاب العرش إن الله تعالى يجلس على الكرسي وقد أخلى منه مكانا يقعد فيه معه رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم
I read in a book in the hand writing of Ahmad ibn Taimiyah, who was from our era, with the title ‘Kitab al-Arsh’, (wherein) he said in it, that Allah sits on a throne and has a free space to make the messenger of Allah sit on it

Ibn Taimiyah believed that the Muslims should eat bloody meat without washing it
Majmo’a al-Fatawa, Volume 21, page 522:
بَلْ غَسْلُ لَحْمِ الذَّبِيحَةِ بِدْعَةٌ فَمَا زَالَ الصَّحَابَةُ – رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمْ – عَلَى عَهْدِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَأْخُذُونَ اللَّحْمَ فَيَطْبُخُونَهُ وَيَأْكُلُونَهُ بِغَيْرِ غَسْلِهِ وَكَانُوا يَرَوْنَ الدَّمَ فِي الْقِدْرِ
Nay washing the flesh is Bida (innovation). The companions may Allah be pleased with them during the time of the Prophet [s] used to cook the meat and eat it without washing it. They would see the blood in the cooking pot.
Majmo’a al-Fatawa, Volume 21, page 522:

We read in Bayan Talbis al-Jahamia by ibn Taimiyah, Volume 1 page 568:
ولو قد شاء لاستقر على ظهر بعوضة
If He (God) wants, He can sit on a mosquito’s back.
Ibn Taimiyah cited this text from Sheikh al-Daremi and he wrote that and he believed in it. We read in Al-Beshara wa al-Ethaf Allamah by Hassan al-Saqqaf, page 21:
ويجوز استقراره على ظهر بعوضة
“He permits the possibility of His sitting on mosquito’s back”
“He permits the possibility of His sitting on mosquito’s back”
Ibn Taimiyah believed that Allah (swt) has a body

“There is nothing in the book, Sunnah, nor in the statements of the Salaf, or Imams of the nation that He (Allah) is not a body and His features are not a body.”

فمن المعلوم أن الكتاب والسنة والإجماع لم ينطق بأن الأجسام كلها محدثة وأن الله ليس بجسم ولا قال ذلك إمام من أئمة المسلمين ، فليس في تركي لهذا القول خروج عن الفطرة ولا عن الشريعة
It is known that the book (Quran), Sunnah and Ijma didn’t say that all the bodies are created, also didn’t say that Allah is not a body and nor did any Imam of the Muslims, assert such a thing. Therefore, in my abandoning that statement there isn’t any deviation from neither instinct nor the law.

We conclude that it was eyesight as it is in the Sahih narration from Qutada from Ikrama from Ibn Abbas said that the Prophet said : ‘I saw my God in image of beardless (man), with long curly hair in a green garden’
Ibn Taimiyah believed that Allah (swt) swings on ropes to get to his intended destination
We read in Majmo’a al-Fatawa, Volume 2 page 76:

”Allah is able to relocate from here to there through rope”

Ibn Taimiyah believed that Prophet Shu’aib was paganWe read in Majmo’a al-Fatawa, Volume 15 page 29:
قَوْلُهُ سُبْحَانَهُ : { قَالَ الْمَلَأُ الَّذِينَ اسْتَكْبَرُوا مِنْ قَوْمِهِ لَنُخْرِجَنَّكَ يَا شُعَيْبُ وَالَّذِينَ آمَنُوا مَعَكَ مِنْ قَرْيَتِنَا أَوْ لَتَعُودُنَّ فِي مِلَّتِنَا قَالَ أَوَلَوْ كُنَّا كَارِهِينَ } { قَدِ افْتَرَيْنَا عَلَى اللَّهِ كَذِبًا إنْ عُدْنَا فِي مِلَّتِكُمْ بَعْدَ إذْ نَجَّانَا اللَّهُ مِنْهَا وَمَا يَكُونُ لَنَا أَنْ نَعُودَ فِيهَا إلَّا أَنْ يَشَاءَ اللَّهُ رَبُّنَا } ظَاهِرُهُ دَلِيلٌ عَلَى أَنَّ شُعَيْبًا وَاَلَّذِينَ آمَنُوا مَعَهُ كَانُوا عَلَى مِلَّةِ قَوْمِهِمْ ؛ لِقَوْلِهِمْ : { أَوْ لَتَعُودُنَّ فِي مِلَّتِنَا } وَلِقَوْلِ شُعَيْبٍ : ( أ نَعُودُ فِيهَا { أَوَلَوْ كُنَّا كَارِهِينَ } وَلِقَوْلِهِ : { قَدِ افْتَرَيْنَا عَلَى اللَّهِ كَذِبًا إنْ عُدْنَا فِي مِلَّتِكُمْ } فَدَلَّ عَلَى أَنَّهُمْ كَانُوا فِيهَا . وَلِقَوْلِهِ : { بَعْدَ إذْ نَجَّانَا اللَّهُ مِنْهَا } . فَدَلَّ عَلَى أَنَّ اللَّهَ أَنْجَاهُمْ مِنْهَا بَعْدَ التَّلَوُّثِ بِهَا
His (swt) saying { The chiefs, those who were proud from among his people said: We will most certainly turn you out, O Shu’aib, and (also; those who believe with you, from our town, or you shall come back to our faith. He said: What! though we dislike (it)?} { Indeed we shall have forged a lie against Allah If we go back to your religion after Allah has delivered us from It, and it befits us not that we should go back to it, except if Allah our Lord please: Our Lord comprehends all things :n His knowledge; in Allah do we trust: Our Lord! decide between us and our people with truth; and Thou art the best of deciders. } serves as proof that Shu’aib and whoever was with him were on the religion of their people for his (Allah) saying:

وكم من مبالغة لتوهين كلام الرافضي أدته أحيانا إلى تنقيص علي رضي الله عنه
“The exaggeration in refuting the Rafidhi text has sometimes taken him to towards belittling Ali [ra]“

Sunni scholar from Morocco Hafiz Ahmad bin Sidiq (d. 1354 H) records in ‘Fath al-Malik al-Ali’ page 109:
“The extremist Nawasib such as ibn Taimiyah and whoever is similar to him.”
Allamah Hasan bin Ali al-Saqqaf (born in 1961) is a contemporary Sunni scholar of modern day. He is the chief of Imam Nawawi center in Jordan.
Allamah Saqqaf in the margin of the book ‘Sahih Sharh Aqida Tahawya’ page 651 states:
“From those who followed the path of Bani Ummaya and practiced Nasb against Ali, Lady Fatima, Alulbayt and assaulting them is Ibn Taimiyah al-Harani and his Nasibi companions.”
“From those who followed the path of Bani Ummaya and practiced Nasb against Ali, Lady Fatima, Alulbayt and assaulting them is Ibn Taimiyah al-Harani and his Nasibi companions.”
Ibn Taimiyah’s proud testimony that Ahle Sunnah don’t follow Ali bin Abi Talib [as]
Ibn Taimiyah who is known for having a grudge against Ali bin Abi Talib [as] proudly claims that none of the Sunni jurists attained teachings from Imam Ali [as].
None of the four imams nor the other of the jurists refer to him (Ali) in their jurisprudence. Verily if Malik’s knowledge was obtained from the people of Madina, the people of Madina did not take Ali’s statements. They took their jurisprudence from the seven jurists, Zaid, Umar, ibn Umar and so on.
Shafiyee obtained jurisprudence from the people of Makka, the companions of Ibn Juraij like Saeed bin Salem al-Qadah and Muslim bin khalid al-Zenji. Ibn Juraij obtained knowledge from the companions of Ibn Abbas, like Atta and others. Verily Ibn Abbas was an independent mujtahid. Whenever he gives fatwa, according to the Sahabas, he would give the fatwa of Abu Bakr and Umar, not Ali’s. He disagreed with Ali on few things.

He said:
بذلك على أن علياً أعلم من معاذ بن جبل جاهل
Translation: Whosoever consider Ali (ra) a greater scholar than Muadh bin Jabal (ra) is “JAHIL” [Majmua al Fatawa, Volume No.4, Page No. 410]

Ibn Taimiyah’s views of Sayyida Fatima Zahra (r.a)
Minhaj al-Sunnah, Volume 5 page 522:
فإن أبا بكر إمام لا يتصرف لنفسه بل للمسلمين ، والمال لم يأخذه لنفسه بل للمسلمين ، وفاطمة تطلب لنفسها
Verily Abu Bakr is an Imam who did not act for himself but for the Muslims and as for the money, he did not take it for himself but for the Muslims whilst Fatima was demanding it for herself.
Ibn Taimiyah’s views of Sayyida Fatima Zahra (r.a)
Minhaj al-Sunnah, Volume 4 page 132:
أو ليس الله قد ذم المنافقين الذين قال فيهم ومنهم من يلمزك في الصدقات فإن أعطوا منها ورضا وإن لم يعطوا منها إذا هم يسخطون ولو نهم رضوا ما اتاهم الله ورسوله وقالوا حسبنا الله سيوتينا الله من فضله ورسوله إنا إلى الله راغبون فذكر الله قوما رضوا إن اعطوا وغضبوا إن لم يعطوا فذمهم بذلك
Hasn’t Allah (swt) condemned the hypocrites those who said about them {And of them is he who defameth thee in the matter of the alms. If they are given thereof they are content, and if they are not given thereof, behold! they are enraged. If only they had been content with what Allah and His Messenger gave them, and had said, “Sufficient unto us is Allah! Allah and His Messenger will soon give us of His bounty to Allah do we turn our hopes} Allah mentioned people that if they are given they will be pleased, but if they are not given they get angry, and Allah condemned them.

Such blasphemy lead to Sunni scholar Mahmoud Subaih in his book Akhta ibn Taimiyah, page 63 commenting:
خطأ جسيم لابن تيمية لا يغتفر إلا إذا تاب منه قبل رحيله وهو تشبيهه غضب السيدة فاطمة الزهراء رضي الله عنها من الصديق رضي الله عنه بغضب المنافقين
A huge mistake by Ibn Taimiyah that is unforgivable, unless he repented prior to death, was his likening the anger of Lady Fatima az-Zahra (may Allah be pleased with) towards as-Siddiq (may Allah be pleased with) with the anger of hypocrites.
May Allah curse you ibn taymeyya for attacking Ahle baet and your Wahabi Nejde followers of today who do the same

“These four Imams, no one of them took any thing related to jurisprudence from Jaffar.”

Ibn Hajar al-Haythami, said
ابن تيمية عبد خذله الله وأضله وأعماه وأصمه وأذله ، وبذلك صرح الأئمة الذين بينوا فساد أحواله وكذب أقواله.
“Ibn Taimiyah, Allah (swt) let him down, misguided him, made him blind, deaf and disgraced him, and by that the Imams both declared and exposed his false beliefs and lies.”
“Ibn Taimiyah, Allah (swt) let him down, misguided him, made him blind, deaf and disgraced him, and by that the Imams both declared and exposed his false beliefs and lies.”
( Al-Fatawa al-Hadithya Pg 114)
Ali bin Abdulkafi al-Subki al-Shafiyee (d. 756 H)
أحدث ابن تيمية ما أحدث في أصول العقائد ونقض من دعائم الإسلام الأركان والمعاقد بعد أن كان مستترا بتبعية الكتاب والسنة مظهرا أنه داع إلى الحق هاد إلى الجنة فخرج عن الاتباع إلى الابتداع وشذ عن جماعة المسلمين بمخالفة الاجماع
.
“When Ibn Taimiyah caused what he caused in ideology and abolished the pillars of Islam after which he pretended to be an adherent of the Book and Sunnah, and pretended that he was an advocate for truth and guiding others to heaven, he went astray and (went) towards originating a heresy, and became odd by contradicting the Ijma of Muslims.”
( in Al-Dura al-Mudhia, al-Subki page 5)
in a book Al-Tawfiq al-Rabani written by a group of Sunni scholars, page 32:
علمه أكثر من عقله فأداه اجتهاده إلى خرق الاجماع في مسائل كثيرة قيل انها تبلغ ستين مسألة فأخذته الألسنة بسبب ذلك وتطرق إليه اللوم وامتحن بهذا السبب وأسرع علماء عصره في الرد عليه وتخطئته وتبديعه ومات مسجونا بسبب ذلك.
.
.
Sheikh Iraqi said … his knowledge exceeded the capabilities of his brain, and he therefore contradicted the ‘Ijma’ of Muslims on many issues. They said on around 60 matters. They therefore criticized and blamed him, and he has been examined due to that. The scholars of his time refuted him, presented his mistakes, and deemed him a heretic. He was also imprisoned due to that.”

Imam Ibn Hajr Asqalani (rah) Writes:
Others considered him a hypocrite because of what he said about Ali:… that he had been forsaken (makhdhoolan) everywhere he went, had repeatedly tried to acquire the Caliphate and never attained it, fought out of lust for power rather than religion, and said that “he loved authority while Uthman loved money” He would say that Abu Bakr had declared Islam in his old age, fully aware of what he said, while Ali had declared Islam as a boy, and that a boy’s Islam is not considered sound upon his mere words. And due to his statement about the story of his proposing to the daughter of Abu Jahl and what he attributed the praises to…Also the story of Abi al-Aas bin al-Rabi and what can be concluded from its concept. In totality, he said derogatory things such as these, and it was said against him that he was a hypocrite, in view of the Prophet’s saying (to Ali): “Only a hypocrite would show you hatred.” Others deemed him a power seeker due to his praising ibn Tumart and constant mention of him.

. Not so, by Allah those who you attack know what is even better than the amount that suffices if the servant acts on it to make him succeed. Moreover, they are ignorant of a great deal that does not concern them. And “the excellence of a person’s Islam includes leaving what does not concern him.
. By Allah, give us a break from talking about “the bid`a of Thursday”, and “eating the grains”, and rather make a serious effort to remember the bid`as we used to consider the source of all misguidance, which have now become the “genuine sunna” and the “basis of tawhid”, and whoever doesn’t know them is a Kafir, or a donkey, and whoever doesn’t call him a Kafir is a bigger Kafir than Pharaoh. You consider the very Christians like us.
By Allah, there are misgivings in hearts. You are fortunate if your faith in the two shahadahs has remained unscathed. Oh the disappointment of him who follows you, for he is exposed to corruption in basic beliefsand to dissolution. Particularly if he is short of learning and religion, a self-indulgent idler who does well for you by fighting on your behalf with his hand and tongue, while he is actually your enemy in his being and heart.What are your followers but hidebound do-nothings of little intelligence, common liars with dull minds, silent outlanders strong in guile, or dryly righteous without understanding?

I can accept that you should publicly disparage me, while secretly benefiting from what I have said. “May Allah have mercy on the man who shows me my faults” [words attributed to `Umar (Allah be pleased with him)]. For I have many faults and sins, and woe to me if I myself do not repent, and how enormous my disgrace from Him who knows the Hidden. The sole remedy for me is the forgiveness of Allah and His clemency, His giving success and His guidance.
Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds. Allah bless our lieglord Muhammad, the Last of the Prophets, his folk and companions one and all.

Ibn Taimiyah write:
و الجواب أن هذا كذب بين فليس في الأئمة الأربعة و لا غيرهم من أئمة الفقهاء من يرجع إليه في فقهه أما مالك فان علمه عن أهل المدينة و أهل المدينة لا يكادون يأخذون بقول علي بل اخذوا فقههم عن الفقهاء السبعة عن زيد و عمر و ابن عمر و نحوهمأما الشافعي فانه تفقه أولا على المكيين أصحاب ابن جريج كسعيد بن سالم القداح و مسلم بن خالد الزنجي و ابن جريج اخذ ذلك عن أصحاب ابن عباس كعطاء و غيره و ابن عباس كان مجتهدا مستقلا و كان إذا أفتى بقول الصحابة أفتى بقول أبي بكر و عمر لا بقول علي و كان ينكر على علي أشياء
Translation: None of the four imams nor the other of the jurists refer to him (Ali) in their jurisprudence. Verily if Malik’s knowledge was obtained from the people of Madina, the people of Madina did not take Ali’s statements. They took their jurisprudence from the seven jurists, Zaid, Umar, ibn Umar and so on. Shafi’I obtained jurisprudence from the people of Makka, the companions of Ibn Juraij like Saeed bin Salem al-Qadah and Muslim bin khalid al-Zenji. Ibn Juraij obtained knowledge from the companions of Ibn Abbas, like Atta and others. Verily Ibn Abbas was an independent mujtahid. he never he gives fatwa, according to the Sahabas, he would give the fatwa of Abu Bakr and Umar, not Ali’s. He disagreed with Ali on few things. [Minhaj al-Sunnah, Volume 007 Page No. 529-530]
Ibn Taimiyah’s views of Sayyida Fatima az-Zahra (raa)
He (Ibn Taimiyah) Write:
فإن أبا بكر إمام ل يتصرف لنفسه بل للمسلمين ، والمال لم يأخذه لنفسه بل للمسلمين، وفاطمة تطلب لنفسها
Translation: Verily Abu Bakr is an Imam who did not act for himself but for the Muslims and as for the money, he did not take it for himself but for the Muslims whilst Fatima was demanding it for herself. [Minhaj al-Sunnah, Volume 005, Page No. 522]
أو ليس ال قد ذم المنافقين الذين قال فيهم ومنهم من يلمزك في الصدقات فإن أعطوا منها ورضا وإن لم يعطوا منها إذا هم يسخطون ولو نهم رضوا ما اتاهم ال ورسوله وقالوا حسبنا ال سيوتينا ال من فضله ورسوله إنا إلى ال راغبون فذكر ال قوما رضوا إن اعطوا وغضبوا إن لم يعطوا فذمهم بذلك

If only they had been content with what Allah and His Messenger gave them, and had said, “Sufficient unto us is Allah!

[Minhaj al-Sunnah, Volume 004, Page No. 132]
Shaykh Mahmoud Subaih write.
خطأ جسيم لبن تيمية ل يغتفر إل إذا تاب منه قبل رحيله وهو تشبيهه غضب السيدة فاطمة الزهراء رضي ال عنها من الصديق رضي ال عنه بغضب المنافقين
Translation: A huge mistake by Ibn Taimiyah that is unforgivable, unless he repented prior to death, was his likening the anger of Lady Fatima az-Zahra (raa) towards as-Siddiq (ra) with the anger of hypocrites. [Akhta ibn Taimiyah, Page No 63]
Is comparing the action Sayyida Zahra (ra) to that of a hypocrite evidence of his love for this blessed lady? Is this how Shiekh ul Islam showed his love or the Ahl’ul bayt (ra)? Calling any Muslim a munafiq without basis is a sin, and he attributes such signs to the daughter of the Prophet (saww)!
Ibn Taymiyyah erred to consider it general
The Shi’ites have accused Ahlus Sunnah due to this hadith and unfortunately the Leading authority of Literalists i.e. Ibn Taymiyyah along with Ibn Hazm have tried to prove that this ruling is “GENERAL” .. Naudhobillah, they have differed with the mainstream opinion of Ahlus Sunnah and thus deviated from the main body of Muslims (i.e. became misguided)
Imam Ibn S’ad (rah) narrates the context of this hadith in his Tabaqat Ibn S’ad as following:
Abdullah narrates: (Sahla) would pour the milk in a utensil and she used to make Salim drink 1 drop from it for five days [Tabaqat Ibn S’ad, Volume No. 8, Page No. 271]
Imam Ibn Hajr al Asqalani (rah) has also explained it in his al-Isaba fi tamiz al-Sahaba, Salim did not drink directly from the chest as it is forbidden for a woman to expose her body to a grown up man (except for husband), therefore the objection raised by some non-Muslims is insignificant and carries no weight, they are not aware of context properly and unfortunately Ibn Taymiyyah has made it look bad by allowing this thing generally whereas It was a specific order regarding Salim who was adopted by Sahla and Abu Hudhayfa prior to the order in Quran regarding adopted children to be called with the name of their fathers!
Yet another Innovation of Ibn Taymiyyah
Imam Ibn Abideen (rah) writes in his magnificent Hashiya Rad ul Mukhtar ala Dur al Mukhtar
قال السبكي يحسن التوسل بالنبي إلى ربه ولم ينكره أحد من السلف ولا الخلف إلا ابن تيمية فابتدع ما لم يقله عالم قبله
Translation: Imam as-Subki (Rahimuhullah) said: It is recommended to seek intercession through the Prophet (Peace be upon him), no one from the Islaaf or Khalaaf have rejected this except for Ibn Taymiyyah, he did such a Bidah which none before him did [Hashiya Rad ul Mukhtar, Volume No. 5, Page No. 254, Published by Dar ul Ihya, Beirut, Lebanon, and Volume No. 6, Page No. 397, by Dar al Fikr Beirut]
Ibn Taimiyah in the eyes of Classical Scholers
Whilst up till this point we have sought to condemn Ibn Taimiyah from his own pen, let us cite some Classical Scholers opinions on the Shiekh ul Islam.
Ibn Hajar Haythami (rah) write:
ابن تيمية عبد خذله ال وأضله وأعماه وأصمه وأذله ، وبذلك صرح الئمة الذين بينوا فساد أحواله وكذب أقواله
Translation: Ibn Taimiyah, Allah let him down, misguided him, made him blind, deaf and disgraced him, and by that the Imams both declared and exposed his false beliefs and lies. [al-Fatawa al-Hadithya Page No. 115]
Ali bin Abdulkafi al-Subki al-Shafi’I (rah) Writes:
أحدث ابن تيمية ما أحدث في أصول العقائد ونقض من دعائم السلم الركان والمعاقد بعد أن كان مستترا بتبعية الكتاب والسنة مظهرا أنه داع إلى الحق هاد إلى الجنة فخرج عن التباع إلى البتداع وشذ عن جماعة المسلمين بمخالفة الجماع
Translation: When Ibn Taimiyah caused what he caused in ideology and abolished the pillars of Islam after which he pretended to be an adherent of the Book and Sunnah, and pretended that he was an advocate for truth and guiding others to heaven, he went astray and (went) towards originating a heresy, and became odd by contradicting the Ijma of Muslims. [al-Dura al-Mudhia Page No. 005]
Abu Bakr bin Muhammad al-Hesni al-Dimashqi al-Shafi’I (rah) Writes:
وكان الشيخ زين الدين ابن رجب الحنبلي ممن يعتقد كفر ابن تيمية
Translation: Sheikh Zainuddin ibn Rajab al-Hanbali was amongst those that believed that Ibn Taimiyah is a kafir. [Daf Shubah min Shabah Page No. 123]
وكان المام العلمة شيخ السلم في زمانه أبو الحسن علي بن إسماعيل القونوي يصرح بأنه من الجهلة بحيث ل يعقل ما يقول. ويخبر أنه أخذ مسألة التفرقة عن شيخه الذي تلقاها عن أفراخ السامرة واليهود الذين أظهروا التشرف بالسلم
Translation: The Imam, the Allamah Sheikh al-Islam of his time Abu al-Hassan Ali bin Ismail al-Qunuwi declared that he was ignorant and didn’t realize what he said. He (Sheikh Qunuwi) stated that he (Ibn Taimiyah) took the belief of ‘Tafriqa’ from his Sheikh who took it from Samirites and Jews, those who pretend to be Muslims. [Daf Shubah min Shabah Page No. 90]
قاله بعض الئمة عنه من أنه زنديق مطلق
Translation: Some scholars deemed him to be an absolute atheist (Zindeeq) [Daf Shubah min Shabah Page No. 125]
فنسأل ال تعالى العافية مما يرتكبه هذا الزائغ الفاجر الكذاب
Translation: We ask Allah to preserve us of what this abhorrent, immoral, liar performs.
ولقد أسفرت هذه القضية عن زندقته بتجرئه على الفك على العلماء وعلى أنه ل يعتقد حرمة الكذب
Translation: The result of the case was the atheism of him (Ibn Taimiyah) because he dares to attribute lies to the scholars and did not ascribe to any prohibition on telling lies. [Daf Shubah min Shabah Page No. 189]
Sheikh Muhammad Bekhit al-Mut’aei al-Hanafi Writes:
ومن الفريق الثاني الذي طمس ال على قلبه وطبع عليه أهل البدع في العقائد والعمال الذين خالفوا الكتاب والسنة والجماع فضلوا واضلوا كثيرا قاتلهم ال انى يؤفكون ومأواهم جهنم وساءت مصيرا وقد ابتلى المسلمون بكثير من هذا الفريق سلفا وخلفا فكانوا وصمة وثلمة في المسلمين وعضوا فاسدا يجب قطعه حتى ل يعدي الباقي فهو المجذوم الذي يجب الفرار منه ومنهم ابن تيمية
Translation: From the second group are those whose hearts Allah darkened, and the people of heresy seal up their hearts in beliefs that contradict the book, sunnah and ‘Ijma’. They therefore went astray and misguided many people, may Allah’s curse be on them:how deluded are they from the truth! Their ultimate abode shall be hell, a hapless journey’s end.
Verily the Muslims were tested considerably by this group, they are a mark of
disgrace for the Muslims and the infected part must be removed to prevent others
from being harmed, verily it is like a lesprosy from which one must away, and ibn
Taimiyah is one of them. [Tathir al-Fuad Page No. 9]

Imam Shakyh Yusuf al-Nabhani (rah) Writes:
فقد ثبت وتحقق وظهر ظهور الشمس في رابعة النهار أن علماء المذاهب الربعة قد اتفقوا على رد بدعة ابن تيمية ومنهم من طعنوا بصحة نقله كما طعنوا بكمال عقله
Translation: Its proven (as clear) as the midday sun in the sky that the Scholer of the four schools agreed on rejecting the heresies of Ibn Taimiyah, and some of them criticized his honesty in narrating. They also criticized the stability of his brain. [Shawahid al-Haq Page No. 191]
Imam Ibn Hajr Asqalani (rah) Writes:
وعاد القاضي الشافعي إلى وليته ونودي بدمشق من اعتقد عقيدة ابن تيمية حل دمه
Translation: The Shafi’I judge returned back to his position and declared in Damascus that whoever ascribed to Ibn Taimiyah’s beliefs should have his blood shed. [al-Durar al-Kamina Volume 001, Page No. 46]
Imam Ibn Hajr Asqalani (rah) More Writes:
Ibn Taimiyah was released in Shaam. The people had different views of him. Some of them deemed him as one that considered the likeness of Allah to His creature, due to what he said in ‘Aqeeda al-Hamawiya’ and ‘Wasitiya’ and other (books), such as the hand, foot, leg and face are real attributes of Allah, and He is sitting on the throne by Himself. Then it was said to him (Ibn Taimiyah) that the necessities of these beliefs constitute ascribing to the limitation and partition (of Allah), he (Ibn Taimiyah) replied: ‘I don’t believe that limitation and partition is an attribute of a body.’
Others deemed him as one that concealed unbelief due to his saying that the Prophet is not to be sought for help (laa yustaghaathu bihi) and the fact that this amounted to diminishing and impeding the establishing of the greatness of the Prophet. Amongst the most rigid people against him was al-Noor al-Bakri, and he established a council due to that. Some of the members said: ‘We shall pardon him (Ibn Taimiya)’. He (al-Bakri) replied: ‘There is no meaning in that statement. If he was diminishing he must be killed. If he wasn’t diminishing he will not be pardoned’.
Others considered him a hypocrite because of what he said about Ali:… that he had been forsaken (makhdhoolan) everywhere he went, had repeatedly tried to acquire the Caliphate and never attained it, fought out of lust for power rather than religion, and said that “he loved authority while Uthman loved money” He would say that Abu Bakr had declared Islam in his old age, fully aware of what he said, while Ali had declared Islam as a boy, and that a boy’s Islam is not considered sound upon his mere words. And due to his statement about the story of his proposing to the daughter of Abu Jahl and what he attributed the praises to…Also the story of Abi al-Aas bin al-Rabi and what can be concluded from its concept. In totality, he said derogatory things such as these, and it was said against him that he was a hypocrite, in view of the Prophet’s saying (to Ali): “Only a hypocrite would show you hatred.” Others deemed him a power seeker due to his praising ibn Tumart and constant mention of him. [al-Durar al-Kamina Volume 001, Page No. 49]
More on Ibn Taymiyyah!
Some people think that Ibn Taymiyyah stands clear of Mujasmi beliefs (i.e. attributing humanly attributes to Allah azza Wajjal and believing that Allah has literal hands, feet, shin, eyes etc…) also his disrespect to Prophet (Peace be upon him) plus blessed family of Prophet (Peace be upon him)
Here is proof of his hardcore anthropomorphism
Ibn Taymiyyah said:
وللّه ـ تعالى ـ استواء على عرشه حقيقة، وللعبد استواء على الفلك حقيقة،
Translation: The establishment of Allah over the Throne is real, and the servant’s establishment over the ship is real [Majmua al Fatawa Volume 5 Page No. 199]
Here is proof of Ibn Taymiyyah making the greatest of disrespect in the court of Prophet (Peace be upon him)
ألزموا ابن تيمية بتحريم شد الرحل إلى زيارة قبر سيدنا رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم وأنكرنا صورة ذلك، وفي شرح ذلك من الطرفين طول، وهي من أبشع المسائل المنقولة عن ابن تيمية
Ibn Taymiyya declared it “Haram” to travel for visiting the grave of Sayyidna Rasul Ullah (salallaho alaihi wasalam)..This is one of the “UGLIEST” matters reported from Ibn Taymiyya.[Al-Asqalani in Fath ul Bari Sharh Sahih ul Bukhari, Volume No. 3, Page No. 66]
Note: When he even declared travel to grave of Prophet as Haram then all doors to disrespecting Prophet automatically opened!
And here is proof of his disrespect in the court of not only Ahlul Bayt but on Sahaba themselves
Ibn Taymiyyah in order to degrade Sayyidna Ali (ra) attributes this lie towards Sahaba:
و لم يكن كذلك علي فان كثيرا من الصحابة و التابعين كانوا يبغضونه و يسبونه
Translation: Many of Sahaba and Tabiyeen hated and abused Hadrat Ali (RA) [Manhaj As Sunnah of Ibn Taymiyyah Volume 7 Page no. 137]

Letter from Hafiz Imam al-Dhahabito his former sheikh, Ibn Taymiyyaal-Nasihah al-Dhahabia li ibn Taymiyya(Sincere Advice to Ibn Taymiyya, Maktab al-Misria 18863)
In the Name of Allah Most Merciful and Compassionate.
Praise be to Allah for my lowliness. O Lord, have mercy on me, diminish my mistakes, and preserve my Iman for me. What sadness at my lack of sadness; what sorrow over the sunna and the departure of its people; what longing for believing brothers to share with me in weeping; what grief over the loss of people who were light-giving lamps of Sacred Knowledge, men of taqwa, and treasure-troves of every good; alas for not finding a dirhem that is halaal or a brother who is loving.
Great good tidings to him whose own faults divert him from those of others, and woe to whom the faults of others divert him from his own.
How long will you see the speck in your brother’s eye and forget the log in your own? How long will you praise yourself, your prattle, your style, while blaming religious scholars and searching out people’s shameful points,knowing as you do that the Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace) forbade it saying:

“Mention not your dead save with good, for they have gone onto what they have sent ahead.” [n]Of course, I realise that you will defend yourself by telling me the attacks are only for those who’ve never smelled the scent of Islam and don’t know what Muhammad (Allah bless him and give him peace) brought and that is your jihad. Not so, by Allahthose who you attack know what is even better than the amount that suffices if the servant acts on it to make him succeed.

” By Allah man! Give us respite from you, for you are an eloquent polemicist who neither rests nor sleeps. Beware of doubt-creating, problematic religious questions. Our Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace) was offended by too many questions, found fault with them, and forbade excessive asking. He also said:
“The thing I fear most for my people is the eloquent hypocrite.” Too much talking, if free of mistakes, hardens the heart when it concerns the halaal and haraam. So how should it be when it concerns the words of the Yunusiyya, the philosophers, and expressions of kufr, which make hearts go blind? By Allah, we’ve become a laughing stock in existence. How long will you disinter the details of philosophical expressions of kufr for us to refute with our minds? You’ve swallowed, man, the poison of the philosophers and of their works more than once; and by too much using of a poison one’s constitution gets addicted. It collects, by Allah, in the body.

O, what longing for a group among whom the Qur’an is recited with reflection, where awe is experienced through its meditation, where there is silence from its contemplation. O, what longing for an assembly where the pious are mentioned, for mercy descends where the righteous people are remembered, not where the righteous are spoken of with contempt and curses.
. By Allah, give us a break from talking about “the bid`a of Thursday”, and “eating the grains”, and rather make a serious effort to remember the bid`as we used to consider the source of all misguidance, which have now become the “genuine sunna” and the “basis of tawhid”, and whoever doesn’t know them is a Kafir, or a donkey, and whoever doesn’t call him a Kafir is a bigger Kafir than Pharaoh.

letters of imam dhahbi [rah] refuting ibn taymiyah
How long will you dote on your ego and attack the finest people? How long will you credit it, and disdain the pious?
How long will you exalt it, and despise the devotees? How long will you be its closest friend, and detest the abstinent? How long will you praise your own words in a manner you do not even use for the Sahihs of Bukhari and Muslim? Would that the hadiths of the two Sahihs were safe from you, as you continually attack them, by suggesting weakness, considering them fair game, or with figurative explanations and denial.
Hasn’t the time come to give up? Is it not it time to repent and atone?Aren’t you at that tenth of a man’s life when he reaches seventy years and the final departure has drawn near?
? Indeed, By Allah, I don’t recall that you remember death much.You sneer at whoever remembers death. So I don’t think you’ll take to my words or hear my exhortation. You will, instead, probably show great energy and concern to demolish this piece of paper with weighty volumes, snipping off the ends of my sentences for me until you gain the upper hand and can close the argument with a triumphant “…at all. And he was silent.”

If this is how you stand in my eyes, and I am someone sympathetic to you, fond and affectionate, how do you think you stand with your enemies?By Allah among your enemies, there are the righteous and intelligent men and virtuous ones, just as among your friends there are the wicked, liars, ignoramuses, layabouts, the vile, and cattle.
I can accept that you should publicly disparage me, while secretly benefiting from what I have said. “May Allah have mercy on the man who shows me my faults” [words attributed to `Umar (Allah be pleased with him)]. For I have many faults and sins, and woe to me if I myself do not repent, and how enormous my disgrace from Him who knows the Hidden. The sole remedy for me is the forgiveness of Allah and His clemency, His giving success and His guidance.
Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds. Allah bless our lieglord Muhammad, the Last of the Prophets, his folk and companions one and all.
