Question: praying behind salafis
I have access to pray in the prayer room in college but the majority of brothers are salafi.
Is it permissible for me to pray behind them and listen to thier talks?

Jazakallah

Bismillah

Al-jawab billahi at-taufeeq (the answer with Allah's guidance)


1) It will be permissible if the brother's Aqeedah is Sahih (correct), he doesn't believe that the Muqallideen (One who adheres to the Fiqh of one of the four Imams) are Mushriks, he doesn't swear and abuse the Salafs (pious predecessors), and he doesn't do any actions in Salaah that will nullify the Salaah according to your Madhab. (Ahsanul Fataawa Vol. 3 Pg. 282)


2) Allah Ta’ala has made the Ulamaa a means of guidance. There are many Ulamaa Haq, refer to them.



And Only Allah Ta'ala Knows Best.
