JAK for the great translation. Just want to note that the translation ends abruptly as though the rest was accidently excluded. It says, “and…”

However, I must protest sister UA's footnote where she says that the Shaykh is referring to “extreme Salafis.” While it is well known–and accepted by almost all sane people–that extreme Sufis commit Shirk and Kufr…Can you please tell which Salafis alive today are so extreme as to commit Kufr? Exactly which “innovations” do these “extreme Salafis” bring up which constitute Kufr? Please name them.

While I agree that “extreme Salafis” are guilty of excessive partisanship, I cannot see how they believe in anything that constitutes kufr. Please clarify this issue or delete it from the article insha-Allah. Again, I completely agree that extreme Salafis have faults–and I myself get into huge arguments with them…but to say that they reach the level of kufr is–in my opinion–not justified.

To Troubled below: surely those are extreme Sufis who commit shirk and call on their saints for help and aid, an innovation which reaches the level of kufr.

Fi Aman Allah

How can we, the laymen, discern what goes and what doesn't--because it seems that one man's extreme is another's wali! And who exactly are the 'extreme' Salafis and Sufis?
