'Abdul-Haq ibn Koofee Akumyaa ibn Kwesi Addae'

What is about to be noted here is about one of the biggest fitnas and mubtadi'een to have emerge in the Muslim communities in the western hemisphere. The huge amounts of wealth he and his organisation spend in attempting to refute Salafees is incredible.

Yet the realities of this individual are being exposed, and may Allaah continue to expose the farce of the huloolee Soofees as He has done from the time of Salaf through til' today,
Ameen!

Also Yoosuf when i see you insha'Allaah i will give you a cpm[lete manuscript copy of the work that i am focusing on, and it is hoped that the distprtions of this man can be exposed for the confused Muslims.

The Kabbani Affair:

He is 'Shaykh' Hishaam Kabbaanee (or Kabbani), the main disciple and second in command of the Naqshabandandee Soofee hizb led by Nazim al-Qubrusee 'al-Haqqaanee.' In fact other Naqshabandandees and Sufis have refuted Nazim (such as the anti-Salafee Sameer al Kadi et al. Al-Kadi wrote a book entitled 'The Irrefutable Proof that Nazim al-Qubrusee Denies Islaam.' Wherein, he castigated Nazim et al as a new cult! ), claiming that he is an heretic and zindeeq and not a true representative of Naqshabandiyya.
But whatever the case, it is obvious that innovated 'spiritual techniques and exercises' are no doubt going to led to strange understandings and individuals. Such a man could not emerge claiming passionately to be Salafee!

1. Al-Kabbaanee has recently been heavily critised by the Muslim communities in America for his 'wining and dining' with various leading politicians of the United states government, and for claiming that the Muslim communities are intrinsically extreme. Kabbani reasons this, as being a Naqshandee Soofee, only his Soofee interpretations of Islaam are the peaceful way, whilst all the rest are extreme. Kabbaanee thus indirectly called for the United States of America to closely observe and monitor Muslim communities, to the US benefit, and to Kabbani's benefit.
So instead of talking to Muslims first and advising them, he has rather gone to the United States 'State Department,' for advice!?
Kabbani has caused difficulties due to his irresponsible remarks in a speech made at the 'State Department' forum on january 7th 1999, which has now been made public by the United States 'Department of State' after requests from Muslims in America.
Amongst Kabbani's major statements of ignorance were that:-

- 80% of the mosques in the United States are run and controlled by extremists;

- the United States government should help Kabbani to stop this threat to US national security'

- the national muslim student organisation (MSA) is spreading extremism;

-the whole university system could be affected by this, and will bring the 'biggest danger,'

- Nuclear and Atomic warheads, and other weaponry are being given to Muslim students;

- Muslim extremists are planting opium and selling cocaine; and even pimiping muslim women as prostitutes in order to spread extremism.

For a transcript of this speech see Kabbani's
www.islamicsupremecouncil.org; also see: www.geocities.com/CapitolHill/Senate/8841/statedept.txt; also see article by Richard H. Curtiss, www.washington-report.org/backissues/0499/9904071.html

Amongst the Muslim signatories from organizations that have now protested against the foolish statements of al-Kabbaanee include the:

- American Muslim Political Coordination Council (AMPCC)

- American Muslim Alliance (AMA)

- American Muslim Council (AMC)

- Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR)

- Muslim Public Affairs Council (MPAC)

- Islamic Circle of North America (ICNA)

- Islamic Society of North America (ISNA)

- Muslim Student Association (MSA)

- The Community of Warith Deen Muhammad

- The staunch blind-follower and 'Ash'aree Sufi da'ee Hamza Yoosuf and his associated communities. Hamza Yoosuf has now protested against the foolery of Kabbaanee, after previously sitting with Kabbani and another Soofee shaykh of Mauritania and discussing Soofism!? The full details complete with photographs of this initial liason of Hamza Yoosuf and al-Kabbani can be seen for all to see on the internet with all relevant documentation of their meeting.
It should come as no surprise that Hamza Yoosuf has no understanding of the Sunnah, especially when he makes statements such as "...I can go to Mauritania and learn Tawheed and 'Aqeedah in five minutes...," then people wonder why we call to the manhaj of the Salaf!? (See salafipublications.com and read the first three excellant commentaries on Kashf us-Shubuhaat)

In actual fact, most of the organisations that are now criticising Kabbaanee, were at one stage affiliated to him! This is what happens when Muslims 'collectively work' hand in hand with heretical ideas and innovators, condoning them without knowledge.
But now, those islamic groups and parties have realied the error of their allaince with al-Kabbani and his Soofic adherents.
Then people want to accuse the Salafees for causing most of the fitna amongst the Muslim communities today!?
We can observe here most importantly, that Muslims insha'Allaah, are realising the deception Shaytaan has on the Soofees. This has been documented from the epoch of the Salaf all the way through to when Ibnul-Jawzi (raheeahullaah) wrote his book on 'Talbess Iblees,' and from the scholars of the Sunnah throughout the centuries.
Kabbani's methodology, apart from his style of Soofism, is to brand any Muslim who does not agree with him (or follow him) as an 'extremist,' and to thus travel the whole world calling to this. Yet it has become clear to the Muslims as to whom the real 'extremists' are. Those who go to the extent of openly critising Muslims and uncovering their mistakes, not to warn other muslims, but to go directly and involve non-muslim governents and their security services and agencies.
Al-Kabbani's statements have no doubt led to greater repression and surveillance of Muslims in America , and have added to the worsening lot of the Muslims in Europe and America . Whilst Kabbani and his followers are living it up in Beverly Hills 90210, watching Madonna's naked butt dancing all up in Kabbani's face!? (This is in reference to kabbani's statements that he enjoys watching Madonna on TV; like the Soofees of old, al-Kabbani is following them in his openly aired passion to 'justify his loves,' as it were)

2. Al-Kabbani according to the Naqshabandees themselves on their own website note: "...he graduated from the American University of Beirut in Chemistry...from there he went to Belgium to continue his Medical Degree in Louvain . Then he recieved his islamic law degree from Damascus ." To be fair this alone shows the nature of such a man. There is no mention of any proper islamic education or studt of uts sciences whatsoever, it is very obscure. Does he know Arabic? Has he written any books in Arabic? Or does he only rise to the occassion in attemting to refute Salafees? Or does he prefer to converse with Europeans and Americans, rushing to their educational establishments, rather than making hijra from them and studying the deen. This is very important, as al-Kabbani acuses Salafees (as do most of the modern Ash'aree soofees like Hamza Yoosuf, Keller et al.) of not being 'traditional in their learning.' This accusation about 'traditional' is a bida' that has emerged from them, never before did any scholars mention anything about this 'traditional' eduaction, rather the Soofee 'Ash'arees have concocted this to instill further confusion, and bring people away from Salafiyya, and Allaah is Al-Haadee and Ar-Rasheed.
So what is even more disgusting is that Kabbani et al. attempted to refute and label as 'innovators' the noble shuyukh, Shaykh bin Baaz, Shaykh al-Albaanee, Shaykh 'uthaymeen (raheemahumallaah). These Salafee 'ulama' were older and wiser in age and knowledge than Nazim and Kabbani, and defintelty did not go rushing to study in 'American universities of science' or with kuffaar catholics in Belgium , of all places!?

3. About 25 yrs. ago, Nazim decided to send his 'disciples' into Europe and America . Here, they would preach strange concepts and begin to call people to follow Nazim. Whom they called "The greatest living saint," and 'the world leader of Sufism."

4. In the United States , al-Kabbani became more and more nationalistically 'American.' He set up his centre in Beverly Hills and began his da'wah amonst the rich and affluent influential people in the area
Beverly Hills of all the areas to reside in America ! Then this jaahil wants to refute Salafees, please!

5. Al-Kabbani et al then began noting that Prince Charles and Hiliary Clinton are secret members of their hizb. Moreover, they say this in order to condone the actions of their respective governments.

If need be brother Yoosuf, brothers can print this off and distribute it to whoever they will.

May Allaah, the All-Mighty, continue to expose the deception and farce of the Soofees and other innovators clearly for the Muslims, and may Allaah destroy the callers to innovations, Ameen!

May Allaah preserve the Sunnah and its adherents and the blessed way of our predecessors (Salaf us-Saalih), Ameen!
