What is the ruling on the actions of Ahl al-Hadith who reject taqlid and fiqh?
Muslims and students of knowledge must embody noble character and excellent virtues, for these are the foundation of servitude to Allah. They should deal with people kindly, even with those who disagree with them, following the example of the Prophet (peace be upon him) and the methodology of the righteous predecessors.
The Imams of the predecessors, such as Ibn Sirin, Al- Al-Basri, and Layth ibn Sa'd, emphasized the importance of adab (good manners) and character before knowledge. Sheikh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah considered noble character an essential part of the definition of Ahl al-, for they call to noble character and prohibit its trivialities.
As for Ahl al-, Imam Al-Ramahurmuzi described them as the "egg of the religion" and the "minaret of proof," who preserved this religion for the Ummah by transmitting its laws and meticulously documenting its narrations and conditions.
In conclusion, the author calls upon everyone to embody the character of the Prophet (peace be upon him), to be fair in dealing with those who disagree, and to beware of the devil's cunning in corrupting relationships.
