Warning Against Being Fanatical Towards Personalities

Ash-Shaykh Rabee’ Bin Haadee Al-Madkhalee, may Allah preserve him said: 

“I am not pleased for anyone to have fanaticism towards me at all; if I err then the one that becomes aware of my error should say to me: you have erred! May Allah bless you; one should not be fanatical to anyone, not to this one or that one. One should not be fanatical to a mistake of Ibn Taymiyyah, neither to Muhammad Bin ‘Abdil-Wahhaab, nor Ahmad Bin Hanbal, nor Ash-Shaafi’ee, nor anyone else. Ones zeal should merely be to the truth, and his respect should be for the truth, and it is incumbent upon him to detest the mistake and it is incumbent upon him to detest falsehood.” [1]
