Are Salafis part of the Ahlus Sunnah wal Jama'ah?

Question

Are Salafis part of the Ahlus Sunnah wal Jama'ah?

Answer

The term, Ahlus Sunnah, applies to only the followers of the four Math-habs. The fundamental difference between the Ahlus Sunnah and Salafis, is that despite Salafis also resorting to the Hadith, they submit the Hadith to their own fanciful interpretation while the Math-habs abide by the interpretations presented by the Salafus Saaliheen of the three Noble Ages of Islam (Khairul Quroon).
