Sheikh al-Allāmah Muqbil ibn Hādī al-Wādi‘ī rahimahu’Allah said:
“We are defenders of the Sunnah, not of ourselves.
We and our honor are a sacrifice for the Sunnah. We have no time to defend ourselves, but when it comes to the Sunnah, even if we must bite down with our molar teeth, we will not allow anyone to speak against the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.”
[Fadā’ih wa Nasā’iḥ, 155]

In Nawāsikh al-Quran by Ibn al-Jawzī [2/395]
From Abū Maysarah Amr ibn Shurahbīl, who said:
“There is nothing abrogated (mansūkh) in Sūrat al-Maidah.”
And from Ibn Awn, who said:
“I asked al-Ḥasan: ‘Has anything in Sūrat al-Maidah been abrogated?’
He replied: ‘No.’”
Then Ibn al-Jawzī said:
“However, the majority of scholars held that there is some abrogation in Sūrat al-Maidah, and we shall mention that.”
End quote.
Ibn al-Uthaymeen (rahimahu’Allah) said:
“And it has preceded that there is no abrogation in Sūrat al-Maidah; rather, all of it is muḥkam, because it was among the last of what was revealed. Although some scholars have said that parts of it are abrogated, this is not correct. Any person who claims that any text from the Quran or the Sunnah is abrogated must provide proof.”

And Allah did not benefit our righteous predecessors except that they were like that.

Sufyān ath-Thawri, rahimahu’Allah, said:
“It has reached me that a servant performs a deed secretly, and the Shayṭān does not cease to be with him until he overcomes him, so it is written (amongst) the open deeds. Then the Shayṭān does not cease to be with him until he loves to be praised for it; then it is removed from the open deeds and established in riyāʾ (showing off).”
[Ḥilyat al-Awliyā 7/30]
