Why The word Salafi?

[Muslimah]

Bismillah


as salam alykom


I agree with Dan, I try to follow the Quran and Sunnah without labelling myself in fear of the hadeeth. I mean we have the sources and referrences, why should i be titled?

Even after all the proof from the post you brothers and sisters still object? ajeeb... But sister muslimah you do have a title- ikhwanee it is clear from your post that you fit their manhaj to the letter. and it's just a matter of time before i see what comes from the rest of the brothers and sisters in this post if you say it's about the Qur'an and Authentic Sunnah of the Prophet Muhammad! than the question now is How do you understand these Texts? with your Intellect? from the understanding of the Sufi Shaikh, from the political activist? The Khawaarij? who..... You must go back to the Understanding of the people who were there when the Revalation came down the Sahaabas, and stick to the statements of your Prophet.... About who the best are.... Then Allah says: "Whoever Follows a way other than Messenger and the way Of the believers Allah will leave them on that way and land them in the fire"..... till the end of the ayat. So now the question is who were the believers when this ayat was revealed?.. Think about it brothers and sisters why you object to the term Salafi? and not a muslim saying "I'm maliki, or Hambalee, or Shafe'ee? or Tableeghee,. just something for you all to ponder over.... Cause saying I'm salafi is just short for sying I'm a muslim upon the Qur'an and sunnah with the understanding of the pious Predoscessors(Known as the salaf) thus Salafi.... So I cant get one who speaks the arabic to object to this....


Assalaamu Alaikum.
