Masjid al-Rahmah (New Jersey): Clarification and Recantation from Previous Errors

[Spubs.Com]

Allaahul-Musta'aan!


SO AFTER the advice of al-'Allaamah Rabee' al-Madkhalee, ash-Shaikh Muhammad bin Haadee and ash-Shaikh Abdullaah al-Bukhaaree, a group from Masjid ar-Rahmah and it's admin listened, benefited and compiled a Clarification and Retraction, as explained by our Noble brother Abdulilaah Lahmami (hafidhahullaah) above.

Thereafter another faction of the admin within the Masjid decided not to take the advice of al-Allaamah Rabee, Shaikh Muhammad and Shaikh Abdullaah al-Bukhaaree. They claimed the above bayaan was false. Wallaahul-Musta'aan! They further go on to claim that the posting of this "bayaan" is "deceiving the people" and it is not the position of Masjid Rahmah. Yet Sheikh Rabee' advised that "those who agreed with the bayaan should sign it and those that didn't their situation will become clear as to why they wouldn't sign."

So here we remind them about the advice of Shaikh Muhammad bin Haadee regarding those for whom it is feared misguidance. Shaikh Muhammad clearly advised Masjid ar-Rahmah to not to follow the path of Brixton Mosque - the path that led them to misguidance. Shaikh Muhammad bin Haadee (hafifhahullaah) stated:

"And we hope those errors that have occurred from them will not be repeated by our brothers. This is my advice, and if the errors are repeated, then then it will be hurtful and they will be considered to be blameworthy. And then the end result for these brothers at Masjid Rahmah will be like the end result of that which occurred with those of Brixton Masjid in London! That they ended up with Abul-Hasan, Ali Hasan and those types of people, that which occurred with Abdul-Haqq Baker and whoever was with him such as Abu Haajir and others. They came to me here many times, and I would advise them. And what became apparent is that they are not truthful (laysoo saadiqeen)! These people from Brixton Masjid would sit with me and listen and say "yes" and then go and do the opposite! But this in reality did not harm except themselves!"

May Allaah guide those at Masjid Rahmah who rejected this bayaan to rectification. Our mashayikh do not wish for them that they end up like Brixton and Luton in the UK. However, considering that "madeenah dot com" have supported Brixton and Luton for many years, maybe it is no wonder that individuals within Masjid Rahmah have been convinced by the da'wah of "madeenah dot com" - especially when one considers that the above bayaan is so critical of the figureheads within "madeenah dot com".

So may Allaah expose the evil of Abu Abdullaah Muhammad Akhtar Chaudhury (of Madeenah dot com), who during every time of difficulty fans the flames of discord and fitnah! This person spreads far and wide oppositions to Salafi Manhaj, lies to the Shaikhs and deceives the Salafis. He uses his mailing list (@fatwaonline.com) to deceive the inattentive Salafis, and cause them to doubt in the Scholars - he is not a follower of evidences but a muqallid of what suits his desires.

Recently he sent out on his mailing list this "new" bayaan which opposes what was agreed to with Shaikh Rabee' bin Haadee al-Madkhalee (hafidhahullaah). Let's see if Chaudhury has the courage to confront Shaikh Rabee' and Shaikh Muhammad bin Haadee with this misdeed, and inform them of what he did. Not likely!

Let us see if he can produce any Scholar he sought direction from before sending out this document that contradicts what was agreed to in front of Shaikh Rabee', the Imaam of the Sunnah and the Imaam al-Jarh wat-Ta'deel. Not likely!

Did Chaudhury pick up the phone and ask Shaikh Rabee' or Shaikh Muhammad bin Haadee before sending out this counter-bayaan? No he did not.

Chaudhury who is so quick and hasty in promoting the people of deviation such as Suhaib Hasan, Brixton and Luton (al-Ma'rabi, Ali Hasan, Maghrawi), Green Lane Mosque and Jam'iyyah Ihyaa Turaath has once again lived up to expectations. Once again he has shown his true colours and his love of fitnah and opposition! O Salafi, unsubscribe from his "@fatwaonline" mailing list which more worthy of the title "@fitnahonline.com"!

For your reference we have attached below the "Disclaimer on the False Bayaan" - Two members of the Masjid Rahmah admin signed their names to it - and it was sent out to thousands by Abu Abdullaah Muhammad Akhtar Chaudhury without consultation with any of the Shaikhs who had originally advised Masjid Rahmah! The question begs, "Why??"

We wonder as to who was lurking in the dark shadows advising these two members of the admin to oppose the bayaan and regard it to be a "falsification"! Why were they not advised to return to our father, the noble scholar Shaikh Rabee', for advice before writing? Why did not these "madeenah dot commers" advise them to fear Allaah, and not oppose what was agreed to with Shaikh Rabee'? Why did they instead send out a "falsification" claim that flies in the face of what was supported by Shaikh Rabee'?!

We repeat here what our brother Abdulilaah stated above:

To call it a "False Bayaan" is incorrect as most of the members agreed to it as is clear.Sheikh Rabee' was pleased with it and praised the brothers that signed and supplicated for them for they sought rectification.

As for those that use any opportunity to spread mischief then Allaah is their reckoner.

Here is the PDF of the "Disclaimer" from what was agreed to and supported by Shaikh Rabee'! Wallaahul-musta'aan!
