O Ahlul Hadeeth, You are my Brothers - Shaykh Saud Al-Shuraim

[Sinner#1]

A good friend of mine who is not a muqallid (so called 'salafi') gave me this video and said me to decide my own paths

Can anyone pls. help me in understanding this video and what shud i reply to my humble friend

He also bigs up the saudis and the translator goes on a rant from 11 mins on the people who do propoganda against the government of saudi arabia and sheikh ibn wahhab, he then goes onto say these are the same teachings of imam malik and imam ahmed. I think sheikh shuraim did mention imam abu hanifah and imam shafi in his talk from 9mins onwards from which the translator used just imam malik and imam ahmed. (prob because he wasnt doing a literal word for word translation).

Ask your friend why the names of the imams (4 imams) were used by sheikh shuraim and why did the translator also use the names and say ahle hadith is the teachings of those imams? (11mins onwards)

Isnt that what a muqallid does to some extent also? follows 1 of the imams?

Also as i previously mentioned, all respect to the sheikh but isnt that just petrol dollars talking when the translator bigs up the saudi government?? i dont speak arabic so i dont know whether sheikh shuraim also bigged up the government.

I don't agree with Saud Al-Shuraim but constantly bringing up petro dollars to promote their creed is little unjustified ?

what about the petro dollars of UAE ? where is it used for ? parties and promoting night clubs and bars ?
the so called sufi friendly emirate busy in dunya
whatever happened to morocco and algeria and jordan ?

Didn't Mufti Husain mention that Shaikh Shuraim was the most hardcore of the Haramain Imams in terms of Wahabiyyah?

Yup, I think so.

[maneatinglizard]

Yup, I think so.

Then why is anyone surprised?

It seems to me that this is like the Pope telling Christians, "You are my brothers," or Haji Abdul Wahab Saheb telling a Jamaat, "You are my brothers."

Isn't this expected?
