Praying behind a Wahhabi/Salafi?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Qibla.com

Answered by Shaykh Faraz Rabbani

Is it permissible to pray behind a Wahhabi/Salafi?

Answer:
In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

Yes. Ibn Abidin mentions that it is somewhat disliked to pray behind the people of bid`a, but doing so is superior to praying alone. If possible, it is superior, of course, to pray behind someone whose practice there is no question about.

Wassalam,

Faraz
