Shaikh Muhammad Bn Nāsirid-Dīn Al-Albānī (رحمه الله):
The foundations of the Salafī da’wah is established
upon three pillars:
- The Noble Qur’ān
- The Authentic Sunnah
- Understanding them
upon the methodology of the pious predecessors; from the companions, the tābi’ūn and their successors.
And
the reason for the misguidance of all the (misguided groups); both ancient and
modern is not holding firm to the three pillars.
