You are as delusional as Jews thinking Allah swt promised them PalestineIn the current era marked by the emergence of 73 sects and various innovations within Islam, the term "Salafi" is now commonly used to describe individuals who adhere to the Pure Aqeedah, following the Quran and Sunnah. It's important to note that "Salafi" is not considered a sect or a distinct group but rather a distinguishing name set apart from those associated with innovations and those deviating from the fundamental tenets of Islam. It signifies a commitment to the authentic teachings of Islam, emphasizing adherence to the Quran and Sunnah, in contrast to groups following innovations or, in extreme cases, engaging in disbelief (kufr).
Abdullah ibn Mas’ud reported: The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “The best people are those of my generation, then those who come after them, then those who come after them. Then, there will come people after them whose testimony precedes their oaths and their oaths precede their testimony.”
