We will not be talking about Immaneul Kant's categorical imperative (besides Philosophy is haram anyway!) instead we shall be talking about the categories in this blog (subject to additions in the future.)
Everything is Haram: If one were to believe one of those extremist Sheikhs then everything would be haram. This will be a list of seemingly harmless things which are marked either haram, makrooh or as bidaah by some "scholars."
Hip Salafi?: One of those soft spoken salafis who claim to build bridges but have a hidden agenda as evident in their "other" speeches.
IT but not info Tech: Who is this IT, one might ask. It is none other than the grand big huge Sheikh – yes you guessed it – Shekih-ul-"Islaam" Ibn Tayimmiyah (that's Islam with two a's. Mind it.) We at BvI do not like to be judgemental but some of IT follower's make him as big as a prophet.
The "Magic" Kingdom: There is only one magic kingdom you know and Mickey mouse is not in it.
The "Islamic" Re-public: This might seem a little out of place on this site but time and again the Salafis have been wrongly attacked (yes there is such a thing!) by some of the people from the "Islamic" re-public ruled by the equally grand big huge rehbars. You will see some "gems" from the other side of the Gulf just to be fair.
"Fantastic" Fatwa: Whenever there is a magic kingdom there will surely be fantastic fatwas. You get the idea, right. 
assalamu alaykum
I think you raise a good point on Ibn Taymiyya; or, more accurately, the *Salafis’ use of Ibn Taymiyya*. I say this, because if you actually read some of his works, he is more intelligent and nuanced than some of his modern day champions make him out to be. He even, shock! horror!, engages in philosophical dicussions and did not have the dim view of tasawuf some suggest he did…
