Anyone who says this is wrong, be he Salafi, Sufi, or whatever he wants to present himself as. If we're not bound by the ijmaa' as-sahabah and the agreement of the Four Schools, then are we bound by anything at all?

What's more, how can you say that it hasn't moved to a place where it invites criticism? Anyone expressing a view like this in public is effectively leaving off the ijmaa of the Sahabah and the agreement of thousands of great scholars from all Four Schools. People who give speeches on the incumbency of 8 rak'ahs taraweeh are shot down like WW1 planes meeting Sidewinder missiles, so why is this going unchallenged?

Not everyone lives in America that they bother about what some individuals there say. Either way there are more salafis in west holding this opinion then those who follow the madhab. Clean your own house before attempting to prove anything.

At the end of the day those who follow the madhab always have the scholars of mmadhab as authority over riding the individual opinions today. While salafism by default is opposite that requires madhabs being diverted to agree with some individuals personal interpretation of Quran and sunnah. That's the big difference.
