Ibn al-Qayyim: ...the Salaf explained the Straight Path and its people as: Abu Bakr and Umar and the Companions of the Messenger ﷺ [Madarij]

Shaykh al Islam Ibn Taymeeyah [d. 728H Rahimahullah] said:

من ظن أنه يأخذ من الكتاب والسنة بدون أن يقتدي بالصحابة ويتبع غير سبيلهم فهو من أهل البدع والضلال.
“Whoever presumes that he can take from the Book and the Sunnah without following and emulating the Companions and follows a path other than theirs then he is from the Ahlul Bida’ and misguidance.”

[From Mukhtasir al-Fatawa al-Misreeyah 2/20.  Translated by Abbas Abu Yahya]
