Quran and sunnah is the only hope.
salfis follow it very strictly. most of their rulings are directly from Quran and sunnah. don't fall for the traps of shaytaan we should not water down are deen to be more pleasing in the eyes of the kuffar. Read Quran translations and hadiths then see for yourself that sufism is not a part of original islam. The prophet (peace and blessings upon him) Did not participate in sufi dhikr or celebrate his birthday nor did he venerate saints. And his companions did not do that either. We have to look at the evidence and not bring new matters into the religion.
Salafism is new very new, how can it overthrow an ancient creed, nabi amaam was here for 800 yrs while salafism and its very extreme and questionable interpretations of hadith and sunnah are 1700's. Also mawlid has different forms yes some are too extreme(talking about the ones who shake and stuff and visit graves), but they have their ways and we should respect that although it may or may not be permissible, you should not start shunning them or try harming them .... that is what we are thought which is in opposite to your views. Also dikr has different forms.
Sufis also follow the quran and sunnah and are no different to salafis but are more non- domanitating and un oppressive in their views while salafis today especially somali sheikhs that you follow heavily, insult and degrade sufis, if u go to islamic somali centers it is filled with unwelcoming talks whenever a sufi enters and he has to leave quickly , that shows you how dominating and backward this is. Also somali islamic centers really hate anything related to somali culture and values and are fanboys of arab bedouin cultural ways. Even if u mention that we should have somali traditional clothes be made a curriculum like other immigrant language and culture schools, then you are told its haram, salafi mosques are also the most qabilist and unbearable now granted this is mainly due to how somalis are, but in the context of salafi ways it shows that salafis can bring out the worst in people.
Also it is heavily funded by western nations to change the image of islam and also to radicalise muslims to the point they utterly destroy their culture for a more arab oriented one and if they decide to listen to cultural non instrument music or wear cultural clothes they are called haram and are shunned.
If u look at it even from salafi perspective u will see that the extreme version of sufis are more welcoming than your local salafi dugsi macalin. You became salafi thanks to the civil war and the institution has gained power thanks to our refugee status and the many somali nomads and poor men taken during the civil war by the saudis and then unleashed upon somali society as sheikhs at a time of war and weakness.
Salafism thanks to oil money also has captured the minds of young men and women aound the muslim world especially from weak formerly sufi countries that dont have strong governments to resist it. you wont find salafism in senegal or turkey (although turks are european wannabes)
