Beneficial words of advice, admonition and encouragement from the Shaykh ʿAllāmah Rabīʿ bin Hādī al-Madkhalī to the callers regarding calling to Tawḥīd and traversing upon the moderate Salafī methodology in all affairs, avoiding extremism and exaggration.
From the Introduction:
In a recently distributed audio recording, Shaykh Rabīʿ bin Hādī warned against the exaggeration and extremism that has entered into the arena of Salafiyyah, likening some of what has arisen from certain directions to the exaggeration found with the Sūfīs and Rāfiḍīs. Within this recording the Shaykh presents some valuable advice in relation to the Salafī daʿwah. The Shaykh also expresses his dislike of certain titles which have been applied to him, considers this to be a type of exaggeration and advises that such titles be abandoned.
Quotes from Shaykh Rabīʿ Bin Hādī:
So, traverse the methodology of the Salaf upon moderation, balance and putting people in their proper places without anything of exaggeration, may Allāh bless you.
So I advise you, O brothers, that you traverse the path of the Righteous Salaf in learning, manners, calling (others). Do not be harsh, be without exaggeration upon a call that is accompanied with forbearance, mercy and lofty manners. By Allāh, the Salafī daʿwah will spread (through this).
But these criminal avenues, like this Satanic Internet, have bolstered these problems. Everyone who scratches his head brings his tribulation to the Internet. Leave these things. Speak with knowledge and it will ennoble you, it will ennoble your daʿwah; and the one who does not have any knowledge should not write (things) for people, neither on the Internet nor elsewhere, may Allāh bless you.
Shaykh Rabīʿ bin Hādī expended great efforts in expunging Salafiyyah from the ways of the Ḥaddādiyyah who show extremism and harshness, make unwarranted tabdīʿ and taḍlīl, and vilify people for inadvertent slips and errors, and the ways of the Mumayyiʿah who soften and water down the Salafi methodology and its principles, and justify their own weak stances, inaction and friendliness with misguided people and groups, and this book presents his efforts in that regard, alongside valuable pieces of advice.
