Shaykh Abu Abdil-'Alaa Khaalid Ibn Muhammad Uthmaan al-Misree on the Hizbee Mustafaa al-'Adawee

Jul 31, 2024

The Noble Shaykh Abu Abdil-'Alaa Khaalid Ibn Muhammad Uthmaan al-Misree (may Allaah make him upright in speech and action) was asked:

Q. May Allaah reward you with good, some have been afflicted with trial by way of Mustafaa al-'Adawee basing it on him studying with Shaykh Muqbil (may Allaah have mercy upon him). What do you know about this man?

A. I swear by Allaah that which I know about this man is that he has a face (in favor) of the Hizbiyyeen from the Qutbiyyeen and other than them. He is with them, he sits with them and praises them. The person is known by his companionship, as mentioned by Ibn Mas'ood (may Allaah be pleased with him) and concurred by Imaam Ahmad (may Allaah have mercy upon him). This man is one who wavers. He is one who wavers in his Manhaj. He has some old speech which entails the maligning and speaking ill of Imaam al-Albaani (may Allaah have mercy on him). It has been said that he retracted (his position) or some of it. The opposite has also been said about this (matter) and Allaah knows best whether his retraction was truthful or not. However, since a long time he has cultivated his students upon maligning and speaking ill of Imaam al-Albaani (may Allaah have mercy on him) as well as Imaam Muqbil (may Allaah have mercy upon him). Based upon that, Imaam Muqbil (may Allaah have mercy upon him) removed him. He removed his name from (the list of) his students before he died, and he didn't mention him to be from amongst his students whom are upon his Manhaj, so may Allaah bless you and reward you with good.
