You should spend some more time reading the Salafi definition and the reality of Salafi Da’wah; for starters refer to What is da’wah Salafiyah? If the Salafis don’t follow the Salaf then i wonder if you Ash’aris heretics follow them, who claim they worship a God who doesn’t exist or everywhere, the Qur’aan is not the Kalam of Allah and created (Allah Ta’ala didn’t say ‘Alif Lam Meem’). These are the heretical views of Jahamis and Mu’tzilite for which they were denounced as committing the act of kufr by the Salaf. Please also learn the Sunni 'Aqeedah and you can refer to 'Aqeedah of Ahle Sunnah wal Jama’h](HugeDomains.com)
It is not about majority, Dr. Zakir Naik isn’t an Islamic scholar; however he is Sunni in 'aqeedah, allhamdulillah. Maybe you should have suggested us the scholars to whom we direct our 'aqeedah questions. Is it Faraz Rabni, GF Haddad, Nuh Keller, the three well known neo-Jahamis and pusedo-Ash’aris? Or would you recon. us deobandi scholars who attribute lies to our Salafi Imam, Imam Abou Hanifa (radiallahu anho)?
Again, brother, you need to do bit of reading and innovators won’t help you in this matter. The issue of Tawassul as by the virtue of Prophet (sal-allahu 'alayhi wa salam) is well known fiqhi difference among the scholar, which is not a shirk but a bid’ah nonetheless; some scholars allowed it and others didn’t. It is amazing that you didn’t say anything about it. I’m sure this will help you and the other readers.
let’s go through your supposedly Sunni fatawa
yes, this is the 'aqeedah of Ahle Sunnah wal Jama’ah
now, this is not the 'Aqeedah of Ahle Sunnah wal Jama’ah and according to who this is the case because all the narrations you quoted only say that the Prophets ('alayhi as-salam) are alive in their graves. This is the 'aqeedah of the innovators i.e. Ash’aris. This is like saying people buried the Prophets (peace be upon them) alive. If they’re alive in worldly sense, then why do their descendants inherit? This is one of things for which Imam ibn al-Jawzi (rahimahullah) ridiculed you guys; he said on the Ash’arites:The heretics claim; i) there is no God in the Heavens, ii) neither is there Qur’an in the Mushaf, and iii) nor is there a Prophet in the grave;****‘your three shameful facets’
