A cult based on superiority thinking, bashing against outsiders, revisionist bullshit and contradictory docitrines. It looks down on all those who disagree with them and pretend they are the best. It hardly brings anything good to others and is forced to use the works of the dirty ashari-quburi-ikhwani-sufi-sururi mubtadi'un to give some meaning to their sect.

The followers of that sect have a low IQ and have no idea at all about classical Islamic history, theology and jurisprudence. Most of them have a black-white mentality and do not know any major figure of the religion they adhere to. They only know bin baz, bin uthaymin, albani and fawzaan. They often think that only they (and a few others) are the only scholars in Islam and withdraw all rights from scholars they do not know. They have hardly any idea what is going on in the Ummah and think by sreaming 'obey the ruler', 'follow the Salaf', 'Do something about your aqeedah', 'this is bid'a', 'You Khariji' all the problems in the Ummah will be solved.

They are also known for being very quick to excommunicate their followers for the slightest difference, but they don't even know what their own scholars believe. Most of them only know their own scholars through half-quoted statements they edited on an App and think so that they all share the same aqeedah and fiqh.

The sect is known for their revisionist nonsense about scholars they try to claim. Their best-known tactic is to say they repented 5 seconds before they died.
Salafism in a nuthsell

Example 1:

Salafi: Ibn Hajar said this, you mubtadi'h

Non-Salafi: Ibn Hajar Al Asqalani is an Ashari

Salafi: *gets cognitive dissonance and says that he repented 2,5 seconds before he died.*

Example 2:

Salafi: You believe in shirk, you Mushrik. Repent or die deobandi mubtadi'h

Non-Salafi: Scholar xyz believed in that too

Salafi: We do not take from the People of Bid'ah

Example 3:

Salafi: Scholar xyz said this. Accept it.

Non-salafi: He did not said that. *Brings proof that he didnt said that*

Salafi: *Ignores or does Tabdee and 1 month later he use the same refuted arguments*

Example 4

Salafi: Bin Baz and Bin Uthaymin said this. Who are you to be against this?!

Non-Salafi: Imam Mullah Ali-Qari, Imam Qadi Iyaad, Imam Shattibi, Imam Ahmad Zarruq, Imam ibn Ashir and many others said this

Salafi: Who are they?? Mubtadi'ah??
