'The Hanbalis have ghuluw'
Al 'Althi Al Hanbali writes in his letter to Ibn Al Jawzi, after harshly rebuking him for his creedal mistakes :
"My fellow Hanbalis will continue to speak the untarnished truth whenever necessary -
even in the face of threats to their lives. They do not fear the censure of their opponents because of [their faith in] Allah, nor are they troubled by the vilification of slanderers or the lies of liars, for they have an agreeable and wholesome reputation. Their renunciation -
of this world and their aversion to it-preoccupied as they are with the hereafter-are well known...."
[Quoted by Ibn Rajab in Dhayl Tabaqat Al Hanabilah]
