The Biography of Imam Muqbil: The Light of Tawheed and Sunnah in Yemen

The Imam, Sheikh al Islam, Al-‘Allaamah, and Muhaddits, Abu Abdir-Rahmaan Muqbil Ibn Haadii Al-Waadi’ii was born and raised in the environment of the Zaidiyya (one of the sect of Shia) that was known with tasawwuf, mu’tazila, and various other heresies.

Just like his predecessors in Yemen, for example, Muhammad Ibn Ibraahiim Al -Waziir, Shaalih bin Mahdii Al-Muqbilii, Muhammad bin Ismaa’iil Al-Amiir (the author of “Subulus-Salaam”), Muhammad bin Ali Asy-Syaukaanii, he eventually left the school of Zaidi.

As for why they left the heresy and became closer to sunnah was as Imam Muqbil himself told, “because they learned and came to know what it is inside of the teaching of this school, and then they saw it deviated from the Qur’an and the Sunnah (of the Prophet- peace and prayer of Allah be upon him).” (See: Maqtal Syaikh Jamiilur-Rahmaan, page.
