On seeing the announcement of his Teleink at the 3rd S͟hayk͟h Ṣāliḥ bin Muhammad Al-Luḥaydān Conference being conducted in Aden, I asked our Noble S͟hayk͟h Dr. ʿAbdullāh bin Ṣalfīq Aẓ-Ẓafirī (ḥafiẓahullāh):

Questioner: As-Salāmu ʿAlaykum wa Raḥmaṭullāhi wa Barakātuh, our S͟hayk͟h. May Allāh grant you success.

Ahlus-Sunnah only rejoice at this cooperation between our Mas͟hāyik͟h, founded upon righteousness, piety, and the dissemination of K͟hayr. However, recently, some people have accused the Mas͟hāyik͟h of Aden, S͟hayk͟h ʿArafāt, and S͟hayk͟h ʿAbdullāh Al-Buk͟hārī of supporting Hānī Burayk and siding with the Transitionalists. Despite their repeated clarifications denying this, these people persist in making such accusations. How should we deal with them?

S͟hayk͟h: Those who accuse the Mas͟hāyik͟h with false allegations of which they are innocent, if they do not accept sincere advice and retract from their oppression and their following of the fabrications of some people, then one should beware of them and warn against them.

Questioner: Allāh is the One Whose help is sought. Yes, our S͟hayk͟h. Do you permit me to spread this?

S͟hayk͟h: There is no harm.

Questioner: May Allāh reward you with K͟hayr.

S͟hayk͟h: And you likewise.
