If we build the positive Connection between Salafism and approximation on the basis of their commonalities, we will see that in many cases this relationship can be established and has considerable strength.

  1. A) The origin and cause of the creation of creatures, which is the monotheism and oneness of the Creator, is another case of this Connection.
  2. B) Paying attention to elements such as the book and the common tradition between them, can be the strongest factor in this relationship.
  3. C) Guidance, which is interpreted as prophecy and prophethood, is one of the cases of strengthening this Connection.
  4. D) Consideration of the end and the epistemology mentioned in the language of religion as the resurrection can be other examples of establishing a connection between Salafism and approximation.

Just as there were cases that played an important role in establishing a connection between Salafism and rapprochement, there are also cases that can foster a lack of connection between Salafism and rapprochement and play a negative role.

  1. A) The Salafis’ unreasonable reliance on their predecessors and their pure and fanatical obedience to them are among these cases.
  2. B) Takfir and dissection of other religions by interpretation by opinion and only personal perceptions and far from fairness are other factors.
  3. C) Paying special attention to verses and hadiths that are important for discord and killing, instead of paying attention to verses and hadiths that call for a strike on the divine rope and achieve the main goal of the creation of humanity, are examples of this.

If there is a positive relationship between Salafism and rapprochement, there will be positive outputs, which can include:

  1. A) Reducing tensions in the international arena and Islamic countries.
  2. B) Reduction of Takfir and Tafsiq.
  3. C) Reduction of murder and assassination.
  4. D) Strengthening peace in Islamic societies.
  5. E) The unity of Islamic countries against imperialism and global colonialism.

F) Scientific, cultural and social progress and development in Islamic societies
