The People of hadith (Arabic: Ahl al-ḥadīth; أهل الحديث) or (Aşḥāb al-ḥadīth; أصحاب الحديث) is an Islamic reformist movement and school of thought.[citation needed] The term Ahl al-Hadith refers to the adherent's belief that they are not bound by taqlid (as are Ahl al-Rai, literally "the people of rhetorical theology"), but consider themselves free to seek guidance in matters of religious faith and practices from the authentic hadith which, together with the Qur'an, are in their view the principal worthy guide for Muslims. The term Ahl al-Hadith is often used interchangeably with the term Salafi, and proponents prefer to call themselves Salafis, although they are often called Wahhabis by their adversaries.
