The noble Shaykh Ahmad bin Yahyaa An-Najmee rahimahul-llaah was asked: Some junior students of knowledge have busied themselves with speaking about people of partisanship [hizbiyyoon]. They spent most of their times in that and they have neglected seeking the knowledge which will benefit them before their Lord, and will distinguish to them the pure from the evil, so that they know the errors of people of partisanship [hizbiyyoon]. Matter of fact, their prime concern is “what is your opinion about so and so” and most of their sittings are dominated by that, to the extent they would accuse others (unclear what was said). So what is your advice and encouragement to those youth to have interest in legal knowledge that will immune them from innovations? And he replied: Frankly, it is incumbent not to be excessive in these matters in a way that takes the student of knowledge out of the realm of truth into disputation and wasting time on speech that brings no benefit, rather man keeps going in closed circles. The seeker of knowledge must utilize his time in the obedience of his Lord, and in seeking knowledge and attending study circles. There is no harm if he listens to warning against them (i.e. Ahlu Bidah) and clarifying their characteristics so that he takes his precaution from them. (O SALAFI READ THESE GOLDEN WORDS AND TAKE HEED) As if we spend all of our times speaking about them and we do not seek the knowledge which benefits us, without a doubt that is a huge and great mistake.
