Comparing Hasan al-Banna with Ibn Hajar
Before proceeding to the content of this article it is necessary to address a shubhah (doubt) used by the Ikhwaaniyyah which is that Hasan al-Banna made the same mistakes as the likes of Ibn Hajar al-Asqalani and an-Nawawi. Whilst Ibn Hajar al-Asqalani and an-Nawawi were affected by the Tafweed and Ta'weel of the Ash'arites, they actually benefited the Ummah with true Sharee'ah knowledge, in the sciences of hadeeth, in their compilations of hadeeth, in their explanations of the books of hadeeth, in the arena of biographies of the Companions and the narrators and so on - and this is an immense service to the deen of Islaam itself, in addition to the Muslims in general. These true, genuine scholars, putting aside their errors in the field of the Attributes had a sound aqidah and were not known for flattery of and intimacy with the Raafidah, praising them and equating their deen with the deen of the Muslims.
What is the Incentive or Motive for those Claiming Salafiyyah to Propagandize for Banna?
Most are familiar with the position of al-Bannaa in this regard and he has been refuted on this subject, however the point here is not to repeat what is already known, since the issue here is not actually about al-Banna falling into Tafweed, but rather the issue here is a people who to this day, claiming Salafiyyah, propagandize for this man, drawing people towards him and to his books. And these people cannot be doing this for any reason - even if they know of his Tafweed and tasawwuf and so on - except because they believe in his methodology and his fikr, or that there is something of value in the hizbiyyah and the various other secular methodologies he introduced into the deen of al-Islaam, making Tabdeel of the some of the Sharee'ah thereby (the Innovators are Mubaddiloon as explained by al-Qurtubee). If this was not the case, then for what reason are they propagandizing for this Soofee, Ash'ari, Mufawwidh and rushing to defend this man (whilst claiming Salafiyyah and a Salafi aqidah), knowing that he disdained and belittled the affair of Major Shirk, flattered the enemies of Allaah, the Raafidah, and spent his life simply trying to gather every Jahmee, Rafidee, Mu'tazilee, Soofee and other innovators under his umbrella? So these are some important questions. Hasan al-Banna and Tafweed Though the section is quite long, we simply want to document his conclusions and corroborations on this subject. Al-Banna wrote:
Later he writes:
In this section as a whole, Hasan al-Banna quotes frequently from al-Ghazali and also from Fakhr ud-Din ar-Razi's book called "Asaas ut-Taqdis" which is a book that contains the greatest of the doubts of the Jahmiyyah and their attacks against the deen of the Messengers. This book of ar-Razi is the one for which Shaykh ul-Islaam Ibn Taymiyyah wrote "Bayaan Talbees al-Jahmiyyah". To understand the nature of ar-Razi (d. 606H), this article here should help put things into context. Shaykh ul-Islaam Ibn Taymiyyah on Tafweed As for Tafweed itself then here are the words of Shaykh ul-Islaam Ibn Taymiyyah, abridged from Dar at-Ta'aarud (1/201-205):
وأما التفويض : فإن من المعلوم أن الله تعالي أمرنا أن نتدبر القرآن وحضّنا على عقله وفهمه ، فكيف يجوز مع ذلك أن يراد منا الإعراض عن فهمه ومعرفته وعقله ؟ وأيضا : فالخطاب الذي أريد به هدانا والبيان لنا وإخراجنا من الظلمات إلي النور إذا كان ما ذكر فيه من النصوص ظاهره باطل وكفر ولم يُرد منا أن نعرف لا ظاهره ولا باطنه ، أو أريد منا أن نعرف باطنه من غير بيان في الخطاب لذلك ، فعلي التقديرين لم نخاطَبْ بما بُيّن فيه الحق ، ولا عرفنا أن مدلول هذا الخطاب باطل وكفر . وحقيقة قول هؤلاء في المخاطِب لنا : أنه لم يبين الحق ولا أوضحه مع أمره لنا أن نعتقده ، وأن ما خاطبنا به وأمرنا باتباعه والرد إليه لم يبين به الحق ولا كشفه ، بل دل ظاهره علي الكفر والباطل ، وأراد منا أن نفهم منه شيئا أو أن نفهم منه ما لا دليل عليه فيه ، وهذا كله مما يعلم بالاضطرار تنزيه الله ورسوله عنه ، وأنه من جنس أقوال أهل التحريف والإلحاد ...
Up until he said:
فتبين أن قول أهل التفويض الذين يزعمون أنهم متبعون للسنة والسلف من شر أقوال أهل البدع والإلحاد
Again to make it clear, the point being made here is not that al-Banna spoke with Tafweed and so on, but it is to show, by way of documenting this fact from Hasan al-Banna - the intellectual fraud of a people claiming attachment to Sunnah and Salafiyyah, and then showing death-defying defences (difaa'un mustameet) in their actions to try and defend the likes of Hasan al-Banna. Whilst we raise the question of what exactly is it in the works of Hasan al-Banna for which you are sacrificing yourself in this manner? Where is the type of benefit we find in the works of Ibn Hajar and an-Nawawi in the works of Hasan al-Banna? Now when we see these people claiming or manifesting defence of the Sunnah and defence of the aqidah and of "refuting the Ash'aris" and the likes - is it just an academic exercise? Iis it upon the deen of the Murji'ah of just holding pure facts and information in your heart regarding the creed without that producing the necessary emotions leading to a consistent, congruent policy of al-walaa and al-baraa for its sake?
