Walî means ‘an Ahl-i sunnat scholar who has attained the love and the grace of Allâhu ta’âlâ; and ‘The Ahl-i sunnat Madhhab’ means ‘the way shown by Qur’ân-al-kerîm and hadîths.’ The savants of the Ahl-i sunnat learned this way from the Ashâb-i kirâm. They respected not what they understood, but what they heard from the Ashâb-i kirâm. ‘To dissent from the Ahl-i sunnat’ means ‘to dissent from the right way of the Qur’ân and hadîths.’ Of these people, the ones who dissent from the Ahl-i sunnat and who misunderstand occult indications in the Qur’ân and in well-known hadîths, do not become kâfirs; they become holders of bid’at. They misguide unlearned people by passing their wrong and heretical interpretations of those indications as ‘The way shown by the Qur’ân’ and ‘The way guided by the Sahâba’.
