It restricts reliance upon the intellects and depends fully upon transmitted knowledge. As for others from those groups and sects which oppose the People of the Sunnah and the Jama’ah, then they rely firstly upon their intellects and then restrictively tu to transmitted knowledge.

There is no purification or rectification nor any possibility of it being brought to a state of well-being except through calling oneself to account. al-Hasan al-Basree, may Allaah have mercy upon him, said, “As for the believer, then you do not see him, in other state except as one who steps forth and confronts himself says: Why did I make such and such statement? Why did I eat such and such food? Why did I go to such and such place? What do I do this thing? What did I engage in that matter? By Allaah, I will not fall into that again, and what is similar to theses statements. He takes himself to account looking at his shortcomings and deficiencies. So that he has the opportunity to try and fix, and rectify them”Yet this self rectification or purification of the soul must be done in the correct way and upon the correct foundation if it is to be successful. Ibn al-Qayyim, may Allaah have mercy upon him, also stated,“The true purification of the soul and the self is directly connected to those messengers sent to humanity. Certainly Allaah sent messengers for the purpose of this purification of souls, and commanded them to pursue this, and brought it about through their hands, through efforts of calling, teaching, and guiding the people. They were sent to guide the various nations of the earth.. ...There is no path to truly cure and rectify the hearts except by means of their revealed paths and through their hands as messengers, and through purely surrendering and complying to their guidance.And we seek Allaah’s assistance in our affairs”The book can be purchased here : http://taalib.com/4150

The well-known noble scholar of hadeeth Muhammad Naasiruddeen Al-Albanee, may Allaah have mercy upon him, said, "And the reality is, in respect to myself, when I was in my first days of seeking knowledge Allaah, the Most Glorified and the Most Exalted, guided me to understanding the importance of purely worshiping Allaah alone without any partners or associates, and I came to be aware of the state which the Muslim world was living in of being far away from properly realizing this essential worship of Allaah alone. I used to suppose that the problem facing the Muslim world was only their being far from properly understanding the meaning of the statement "La ilaha illa Allaah" ( there is none worthy of worship except Allaah). However, after some time it became clear to me that there was also another problem which was directly connected to this first fundamental issue, meaning the problem of the Muslims being far from properly understanding the meaning of the statement of tawheed. This additional problem, being that the majority of the Muslims were not truly reflecting the authentic character and behavior of Islaam except to a very small and minimal degree."
