Q. Is one who calls himself a "Salafi" to be considered a partisan (hizbi?)
A. There is not harm [1] in labelling oneself with Salafiyyah when it is in truth. However, if it is merely a claim then it is not permissible to label oneself with Salafiyyah, whilst one is upon a manhaj other than that of the Salaf.
The Ash'aris for example, say "We are Ahl us-Sunnah wal-Jamaa'ah" and this is not correct. This is because what they are upon is not the manhaj of Ahl us-Sunnah wal-Jamaa'ah. It is likewise for the Mu'tazilah who call themselves "Muwahhideen" (Monotheists). 

All of them claim to have love for Laylaa
Yet Laylaa does not affirm this for any of them

THE SHAIKH & 'ALLAAMAH 'UBAID AL-JAABIREE: THE RECENT ATTACKS UPON SALAFI PUBLICATIONS & THE STATEMENTS OF SHAIKH WASI'ULLAAH
Ash-Shaikh ul-'Allaamah Ubaid Al-Jaabiree, hafidhahullaah said: (Date: Sunday 8th October 2006, after taraweeh prayer, in the city of Madeenah, KSA, during the Dawrah 'Ilmiyyah in Ramadhaan)
"As for the fourth level, it is the level of patience in whatever harm afflicts him in the path of calling to Allaah, the Sublime and Exalted. And you should know, may Allaah bless you, that whoever puts himself forward for da'wah and partakes in it, then he appoints for himself the duty of the Prophets and Messengers, from Nuh, the first of them, to Muhammad (sallallaahu alayhi wasallam). 
And so long as the affair is like that, then harm will afflict him to the level of his striving in his da'wah. But sometimes it can increase, when ignorance increases, and corruption increases, and innovations increases, then it (the harm) can become more severe upon the caller to Allaah.

Questioner: It has been reiterated by some of those with us here in Riyadh that you have refuted some of the various movements.
Sheikh Rabee: Some of the what?
Questioner: Some of the various movements

Sheikh Rabee: Yes.
Questioner: Refuted them with speech and written works, so did you advise them before you refuted them?
Sheikh Rabee: This is something which is known, it is well known that I give advice, such that the Haddadis consider this to be blameworthy and (they consider this to be) tamyee; may ALLAH fight them. By ALLAH, we do not do this except in order to protect the Salafis, By ALLAH I don’t want for a hair of a Salafi to fall, if a person attributes himself to the minhaj of the Salafi and he says, “I’m Salafi” and he associates with the Salafis and then he falls into a mistake, even something major, I am not quiet about it and all praises belong to ALLAH, I advise him, verbally and written to the best of my ability. So the first person I advised was Abdur Rahman Abdul Khaliq, I advised him and the Muslim Brotherhood.
