Ahlus Sunwah Wal Jamaat

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by DarulIftaBirmingham
Who are the Ahlus Sunwah Wal Jamaat?

In the name of Allah, the most Beneficent, the most Merciful.

 

Answer

The Ahlus Sunnah Wal Jamaat are those whose beliefs and teachings are in accordance with the Holy Quran, the Sunnah of the Prophet of Allah Sallallahu Alahi Wasalam, the Companions and the pious predecessors.

The Prophet of Allah Sallallahu Alahi Wasalam said after he passes away his Ummah should remain firmly steadfast upon his Sunnah and upon the way of his four Muslim Caliphs. (Sunan Ibn Majah p.5 v.1)

Furthermore the Prophet of Allah Sallallahu Alahi Wasalam advised us to remain firm with the largest group of Muslims and remain steadfast upon their beliefs and actions.

The Prophet of Allah Sallallahu Alahi Wasalam said ‘Allah will never allow my Ummah to unite upon misguidance and incorrect beliefs.  Allahs’ mercy, blessings and protection are with the largest group of Muslims.  And he who deviates from this largest group of Muslims will be thrown into Hell’.

(Mishkatul Masabeeh p.30 v.1)
