Hakikat Kitabevi Publications No: 10 answer to an enemy of islam

“A mujaddid
(strengthener, renewer, of Islam) 
will come every hundred years.
He will strengthen this religion.” It is true that many Muslims
have deviated and seventy-two heretical groups have appeared.
But the deviation of Muslims does not mean that Islam itself was
defiled. There have always been those true pious Muslims who
have not given up following as-Sahâbat al-kirâm. These Muslims
are called 
Ahl as-Sunnat wa ’l-Jamâ’a. The ’ulamâ’ of Ahl as-
Sunna have guided the people to the right path in every part of the
world in every century. They have not left any question
unanswered. They have protected Muslims from believing in the
lies and slanders of zindîqs, men of bid’a, and religion reformers.
Allâhu ta’âlâ declares that Islam will not be corrupted till the end
of the world.
25– The religion reformer praises himself and extols the
magazine 
Al-Manâr to the skies, which he himself edited, a case
justly pertinent to the saying, “The Hurûfî’s miracle is related by
himself only.” On the other hand, in this magazine he represents
freemasons and religion reformers as Islamic scholars and, by
saying that they will renew Islam, he means that the task of
restoring Islam to its honourable early state will be done by them.
Islam was defiled and Islamic books were changed, he alleges, and
they will correct it. But the venom vomited by the snake lying
under his insidious words is directed to destroy Ahl as-Sunna, to

annihilate the books of Ahl as-Sunna, which guide to the path of
as-Sahâbat al-kirâm, and to replace these books with the books of
freemasons and the enemies who have been trying to destroy
Islam from within. In short, it is to corrupt Islam, the path of
Rasûlullah (’alaihi ’s-salâm) and as-Sahâbat al-kirâm, and thereby
to eradicate Islam. This is the very purpose of religion reformers,
of those who say that they will reform the religion. Their attacking
the scholars of Ahl as-Sunna, who show us the footsteps of the as-
Sahâbat al-kirâm, reveals clearly their ignoble motives. Such
insidious disbelievers who strive to demolish Islam from within by
masqureading as Muslims are called
