الحمد لله رب العالمين والصلاة والسلام على من لا نبي بعده اما بعد

O Muslims ! Understand that the senior most of the Ulemaahs can also make mistakes as they are also humans. This is what the Sahabhee Abdullaah ibn Umar raliyallahu anhusays, "I have been mentioning what Allaah says and what Messenger of Allaah says. Instead you are mentioning what abu baker raliyallahu anhu and Umar raliyallahu anhu says. I fear that stones may rain upon you because of this".

By this, Abdullaah ibn Umar raliyallahu anhuconveys that even if the claims of Abu Baker raliyallahu anhu and Umar raliyallahu anhu contradicts the Quraan and Sunnaah, we can't take it. This is the Creed and the Methodology of the Sahabhaa's. If the Muslims of our times, even after the Daleels have been proved to them from Quraan and Sunnah and even after the ulemaahs have recorded the actions of the Messenger and the Sahabhaa's in their books, protests against saying that their leaders has not mentioned this and so they won't implement this then they are the people who grow sects, parties, madhabs and tareeqahs.
