How close or far are the groups of “Ansar al-Sunnah al-Muhammadiyah,” “Tabligh and Da’wah,” “Salafis,” and “Usuliyyun” from the creed of Ahl al-Sunnah wal-Jama’ah?
The details regarding the Tablighi Jamaat and the Salafis have been previously discussed in former fatwas.
As for Ansar al- al-Muhammadiyah: They are a Salafi Islamic group that originated in Egypt, advocating for monotheism () and the authentic Sunnah to purify belief and reject innovations (bid'ah). This is considered a prerequisite for the return of the Caliphate and the renaissance of the Ummah.
As for the "Usuliyyun" (Fundamentalists): This term is used in modern times to refer to the People of Truth (Ahl al-Haqq) who adhered to it and called for it. Historically, it referred to those who specialized in the اصول الفقه (Usul al-Fiqh - principles of Islamic jurisprudence). It is also used to refer to a Western Protestant intellectual movement that emerged in the nineteenth century.
