Sh.Waseeullah 'abbas is a senior SALAFI scholar

The next question is that what is your position/stance on those people who say that the word/label of Salafi/Athari/Ahlul Hadith is not necessary because it is not proven from the Quran and Sunnah?
 
A: The first question I would like to ask these individuals is that do they really believe in the Quran and Sunnah? If they indeed believe then from the Quran itself Alhamdulillaah, the one who follows the Messenger of Allaah وسلم عليه الله صلي would be called an Athari, Muttabi. If there is any word which is not proven from the Quran and the Sunnah then that word is taqleed in the way these people use it and its obligation. But Athari and Ahlul Hadith is proven just like Allaah said regarding the Quran in Surah Nisaa ayah 87 -" And who is truer in Hadith (statement) than Allaah?" So in this same context, the ulema from not just today but muhaddithin (hadith scholars) of old as well, these people are ignorant, they don't read hadith, they may just read hadith for blessing (not with comprehension and insight) but if we look into Sunan at Tirmidhi then we will find Imam Tirmidhi has used the word Ahlul Hadith and as far as Fiqh is concerned then he mentions Imam Abu Haneefa he says Ahlul Kufa and Imam Abu Haneefah, Ahmad, Ishaq, he (Imam Tirmidhi) refers to them as "this is the statement of our companions" which means Ahlul hadith. And then you know that there is a book called Aqeedah Ahlul Hadith by Shaykh Saboonee who lived in the end of the third century and died in the beginning of the fourth century (Hijri). So this is not a new word, rather this word is the actualization of one's manhaj.

Allaah has called everyone a Muslim in the Quran but when we ask an individual what kind of Muslim are you? Are you a Raafidi who curses Abu Bakr and Omar عنهما الله رضي and calls them all kaafir? Oor a Qadiyaani who have created a new Prophet, are you a hanafi, shaafi, hanbali, teejani, a lot of questions will follow.

So when people have placed boards (labels) on themselves, then they have taken the statements of their Imams and used names for themselves whereas the Sahaba themselves have used the term Ahlul Hadith for themselves and they have used it as a distinguishing/ differentiating sign for themselves and there is nothing wrong in using such a distinguishing label and there should be no shame in using it.
Such kind of statements come from those who are indeed the enemies of hadeeth and the sunnah of the Beloved Messenger of Allaah وسلم عليه الله صلي and say openly that this hadith is not acceptable in our madhhab (school of thought) and we will not accept this hadith and in reality they have a lot of issues which contradict the hadith whereas the one who acts according to the hadith, then these people criticize him, pushexpel them from him out from the mosques and these things exist.

So due to these reasons, it is necessary in this day and age because if one calls himself Muslim then it necessitates that he must be a strict adherent of the Quran and the Sunnah and the only title for the withholder of the Quran and Sunnah is either Ahlul Hadith or Athari, which means the one who accepts and follows the Athaar (sayings) of the Messenger Of Allaah سلم و عليه الله صلي and the Sahaaba, and Salafi as Allaah's Messenger وسلم عليه الله صلي called himself Salaf and the Sahaba are also our Salaf.
So these titles have become a necessity to use and not to be hidden. One must not be secretive about them rather openly declare that we call towards the pure, complete religion on the Sunnah of RasoolUllaah (sallAllaahu 'alaihi wasallam) about which Allaah gave glad tidings on the day of Arafah towards which we call as Abu Shaama said that "all matters must be returned to the early matters". So either you call yourself Salafi, Ahlul Hadith or Athari, it all refers to acting upon the real teachings contained within the Quran and Sunnah.

"Shaykh Rabee is a great scholar. He is good. However, many people dislike him because they belong to Jamaat-e-Islami, they belong to Ikhwani ideology. Shaykh Rabee demolished their roots. He exposed Syed Qutb and others. So these people are not Ahle-Hadees, they put on mask. They pretend to be Ahle-Hadees to promote their ideologies, by pulling masses away from Ulema. There are many of them."
