It is really strange for a person to claim to be a Salafee when he doesn't contact his fellow Salafee brothers.
So ask him, where does he take his manhaj from?

My thoughts.. My journey in learning the manhaj of adhering to the Qur'aan and the Sunnah upon the understanding of the Salaf as-Saalih.. My inspirations.. My life..
Welcome Note
Bismillaahi ar-Rahmaan ar-Raheem.
Al-Hamdu lillaah, wa as-Salaatu wa as-Salaamu 'ala Rasoolillaah, wa ba'd.
This blog is (originally) created in dedication to the Salafee Da'wah (Call) and Manhaj (Methodology), the manhaj of adhering to the Qur'aan and the Sunnah as were understood by the Salaf as-Saalih [pious predecessors, comprising of the Sahaabahs (Companions), Taabi'een and Taabi'ut-Taabi'een; the first 3 generations of Muslims] ridwaanullaahi 'alayhim. Hence, the sharing of articles by Salafee scholars and from Salafee websites.
(It may now include "non-Salafee" sources and authors, for the sake of sharing beneficial knowledge.)
At the same time, it is also an avenue for me to share my thoughts, ideas and opinions on current issues. (And I've expanded it to include my inspirations.)
The entries will be a mix of English and Malay, depending on the language the articles were written in as well as the language I intend to write in.
Enjoy the read. May what I've written and going to write in this blog benefit me, my parents, and my family.

Well, do salafys have a banner on their head that says, "Anaa Salafy"?
Firstly, this post is meant for those who know their fellow Salafee brothers but chose not to maintain the ukhuwwah with them.
Secondly, it isn't difficult to recognise a Salafee.
For instance, personally people know I'm a Salafee from my beard (because I left it to grow), from my trousers (because it doesn't cover my ankles.
Not forgetting from the way a Salafee prays, which is in accordance with the Sunnah, as described by Shaykh al-Albaanee in his book "Sifaat Solatun-Nabee".
Let's not forget that for a Salafee, he strives to ensure that all his affairs is in accordance with the Sunnah.
He strives to practise and uphold the Sunnah, he is firm against shirk and bid'ah.
My fingers are itching to type and make a comment at that but your 1st paragraph sort of "shut me up".
Aaaarggh...ok I'm gonna say it anyway, I don't aggree with your "secondly...reasons".
Al'hamduwlillah, now that's done, I'm gonna tell you why.
Firstly, NOT ALL brothers who let their beard grow are Salafees ...erm, not that I know of any brother personally of course BUT it's true!
Masha^Allah, I have relatives and my friends brothers or husbands let grow of their beard, wear trousers above their ankles, al'hamduwlillah but they are not upon the salafy manhanj.
Wallah! I'm speaking the truth! You can't tell really....or is it perhaps I'm a sister and that's why I can't tell....hmmmm *scratch head* and *looking blur like sotong*...
I mean even for sisters, it's hard to tell... I see sisters in niqaab, al'hamduwlillah, I go ga-ga seeing a fellow niqaabi but when I got to talk to them, they start to "yapping at some crap"...*roll up eyes* Hey but I still befriend them, al'hamduwlillah.
Inshaa^Allah, in time, I hope to bring out that "crappiness" in them.
So the point I'm trying to make here is NOT to be quick at judging people you know. Don't wait for others to maintain the ukhuwah but ourselves, we must do our part in maintaining that ukhuwah and inshaa^Allah if we do it for Allah's pleasure, that shouldn't be a problem, na'am?
May it be pleasing to Allahu Ta'ala to put our feet firm upon the straight path.... amiyn yaa Allah!
May it pleasing to Allahu Ta'ala to showers abundance thawab to you on your effort on Diyn... amiyn yaa Allah!
May it be pleasing to Allahu Ta'ala to gives us the strength that all our actions adhere to the Qur'an wa Sunnah and whatever we do is for HIS pleasure...amiyn yaa Allah!
Salam 'alaik.
Ya ukhtee.. i do hope that you read my reply thoroughly..
I didn't say that a brother who grow his beard and wear trousers above the ankles is confirmed a Salafee.
If you've read my comment thouroughly, I did mention that he must pray in accordance with the Sunnah and that he strives to ensure that all his affairs is in accordance with the Sunnah.
And that he strives to practise and uphold the Sunnah, and he is firm against bid'ah.
So you missed out my point about prayer in accordance with the Sunnah, and upholding the Sunnah and firm against bid'ah.
In other words, when you see a brother who grows his beard and where his trousers above his ankles, you can say, "aha, it's possible that this brother is a salafee."
But it's not confirmed that he is a Salafee until we learn about his acts of worship and his affairs, whether he strives to practise and uphold the Sunnah and whether he is firm against bid'ah.
This is vital.
So for you case, perhaps it's different. Because not all Salafee muslimahs wear the niqaab, because for all you know, they might be holding onto Shaykh al-Albaanee's fatwa that state that it is not wajib, even if the muslimah is very pretty.
So you'll have to see how a sister prays. And when you see that she prays in accordance to the Sunnah, you can say, "aha, it is possible that this sister is a Salafee."
BUT it is not confirmed yet until you learn about her acts of worship and her affairs, whether she strives to practise and uphold the Sunnah, and is firm against bid'ah.
And i purposely did not mention about manhaj because i was waiting to see what you have to say about manhaj.
But it seems that you did not exactly mention anything about manhaj except the word "manhaj".
It is important to note that the Salafee manhaj is to adhere to the Qur'an and Sunnah as was understood by the Salaf as-Saalih (Sahaabah, Taabi'een and Taabi' at-Taabi'een), not just adhering to the Qur'an and Sunnah.
At the same time, it is important to note the concept of "Lau kaana khairan la sabaqoona ilayhi", as well as the hadeeth "He who performs a deed (amalan) that is not from our command, shall have it rejected." (Reported by Muslim)
Ya ukhtee, if you'd like to continue with this discussion, perhaps email is a good platform.
Hence, feel free to drop me an email at ibnshamsuddeen@yahoo.com.sg
Wallaahu al-Musta'aan.
And with regards to the issue of maintaining the ukhuwwah, I was referring to brothers who claim to be Salafees and know their fellow Salafee brothers but chose not to maintain the ukhuwwah with them.
Meaning, we strive to maintain the ukhuwwah with the brother but he chose not to maintain the ukhuwwah with us.
Wallaahu a'lam.
As salaam 'alaykum wa ra'hmatullaahi wa barakaatuh.
Now, if the said brother do not want to maintain that ukhuwwah then it is his lost isn't it? *roll up eyes*
The point I am trying to make is that we should maintain that ukhuwwah and not to give up on them and maybe inshaa^Allah because of our effort and sabr then Allaahu Ta'ala will soften their hearts and perhaps they will change their attitude.
May it pleasing to Allaahu Ta'ala to guide us to what is right for His pleasure.
Allaah knows best!
Wa 'alaykum as-Salamu wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu wa maghfiratuh.
Na'am. This entry hanya sindiran semata-mata. Sometimes, humans perlu disindir, baru mereka sedar.
Wallahu a'lam.
