Salafist? Is that what they are calling muslims in Germany now?
The Salafists, like the Wahhabis in Saudi Arabia are fundamental Muslims who want Islam practiced the way Muhhamad did, and they don't want it watered down as it is by most so-called Muslim today who are basically heretics.
from the Islamic dictionary.-The principal tenet of Salafism is that the Islam that was preached by Muhammad and practiced by his Companions, as well as the second and third generations succeeding them, was pure, unadulterated, and, therefore, the ultimate authority for the interpretation of the two sources of revelation given to Muhammad, namely the Qur'an and the Sunnah
