 Individualism and the Mystical Path in Shaykh Ahmad al-Ahsa'i
Shaykh Ahmad likens the exoteric and the esoteric to the human soul and body; were a human soul placed in an animal body, it would not suit it, and vice versa.
Shaykh Ahmad, in his conception of the spiritual path as a process of "stripping" (ta`til) away personality-attributes as a means of arriving at the divine reflection within oneself, at the extrinsic being bestowed by God, has certainly delineated a space different from the founding principles of conventional legalist Shi`ism.
Shaykh Ahmad advocates, in the realm of spirituality and the principles of religion, a more equal association of believers, some of whom are slightly more advanced and so able to help awaken or cue their co-religionists to their own latent spiritual potencies.

 Bismillahi-r-Rahmani-r-Rahim : Green Mountain School, Shaykh A. Nooruddeen Durkee, Director
Shaykh Ibrahim in his mid-eighties (may Allah give him good health), is now retired, but continues teaching from the zawiyah on Azhar St. as well as from a new Masjid and Zawiyah he has constructed in the Heliopolis area of Misr Gadeed on the desert outskirts of Cairo.
A large part of Shaykh Nooruddeen's work has been in the realm of education, and for many years specifically in the realm of teaching reading, writing, and reciting of Qur'anic Arabic, which grew out of his work in the translation and transliteration of the sacred texts of the Shadhdhuliyyah and finally the Qur'an.
Shaykh Nooruddeen is deeply convinced that this message of Universal Mercy (ar-rahmah) is the message that all kinds of people are thirsting for, and that it is a positive way forward for Muslims, especially those living in minority circumstances.

 Shaykh A. Bamba
The majority of people learn from the Shaykh's life, its mystical dimension; which is not to be overlooked, but the Shaykh has certainly more important mission in his life; such as being a religious leader with a very important message to deliver.
Shaykh Ahmadou Bamba's merit is the ability to distinguish what needs to be renewed or modernized and what should be in different domains of life.
Shaykh Ahmadou Bamba was against that custom and never accepted it; he finished his studies in the countries of Sudan (fls).

 |troid.org| Clearing Confusion about Shaykh Ibn Baaz   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
So Shaykh Ibn Baaz is right from his viewpoint meaning that it is not permissible to speak against them until the proof is established - that Safar and Salmaan know that they are upon clear error and are given a chance to return.
So when Shaykh Ibn Baaz is criticizing Safar and Salmaan, it is not the Shaykh's criticism of their understanding of Asmaa was-Sifaat but rather their stances on the issues I have mentioned in the previous sentence.
The first fatwa clearly shows Shaykh Ibn Baaz's dissapproval of the behaviour and statements and writings of Safar and Salmaan to the point that the whole Committee agreed, "then they are to be prevented....in order to protect the society from their errors".

 Manners of a Shaykh
First of all, in order to be a shaykh, and to continue to be a shaykh, you have to follow your own shaykh.
A shaykh's adab with the general public is based on his remembering that he is representing the Prophet (saws), and he must act with each person according to his or her level of understanding.
If someone fits these conditions, he or she is on the right path, and still Allah knows if he is a true shaykh or not, if he has a silsilla or not; it depends on a lot of things.

Shaykh Mashur Salmaan said in reply to this, "these words are from one who does not know what fairness is, who acts haphazardly in his rulings, and who falsely accuses the scholars of wickedness.
Shaykh al-Islaam said, in the course of this topic, ‘indeed the term al-Jism (body), al-Arad (organs), al-Mutahayyiz (extent) are newly invented terminoligies.
