Re: adh Dhahabi

Thanks for the comment. I wasn't the one who originally put the link there, but this is from I believe the first or second paragraph from that page:
"The Salafiyyah movement to return Islam to it's purest roots (like the Islamic Amish!) has taken as reference points the teachings of Imam Ahmad bin Hanbal , Al Barbahaaree, or Al Laalikaa'ee, or Ash-Shaatibee, or Adh-Dhahabee, or Al Layth ibn Sa'd, or Abu Haneefah, and other scholars who adhered to the methodology of the salaf."
What you could do is just include both, as being Salafi doesn't negate following one of the four madhhabs either. You seem like a reasonable guy, so i'll trust your judgment. MezzoMezzo (talk) 05:23, 13 April 2008 (UTC)

The meaning could go either way. I would keep in mind, though, that even the modern Salafi movement doesn't prohibit the following of a madhhab. Guys like Bin Baz and Albani, whom Salafis tend to follow, were only against the blind following of a madhhab without proofs, not of following them in general. In fact the majority of Albani's fiqh rulings were the same conclusions as the Maliki madhhab. So technically, it is possible to be both one and the other.
