The meaning of the ahl al Sunnah which is opposed to al-Kalam is Selefiten. In the
period of the Sahabi, the Muslims didn’t conclude the results of logical inferences when
interpreting the religion because they hadn’t met the foreign religions, philosophies and
cultures.
The members of the Selefiten thought constructed by the leadership of the Ahmad
bin al-Hanbel pursued the way of the Sahabis in understanding and interpreting the religion.
So, they showed a prohibitive action towards the conditions that appeared later or
they stayed unconcerned.
After the Ottoman empire demolished, Westerner forces invaded some muslim countries.
As a result, The Selefiten inclined towards the violence and going away from the
main to leave part in interpreting the religion.
We hope the Selefiten that is transformed as a sect belongs to ahl al Sunnah, force
and violence and its marginal tendition.
