changeIbn Taymiyyah strived to revive Tawheed within Islam by fighting against bid'ah (new things being added to the religion of Islam) in the religion and reviving the way of the Salaf (the 3 best generations of Muslims).[5] He mainly fought against Sufis and considered them as Ahlul Bid'ah (people of Bid'ah).[6] He also fought against mainly the followers of Ash'arism and Maturidism (the majority of Sufis).[5]
