Has Shaykh Yahya changed in how he deals with the opposers to the Salafi Manhaj?

Question:

Some of them spread that you regret how you dealt with the people of innovation during the days of Dammaaj?

Answer:

I praise Allah that nothing has changed from me, in what is related to…, and this is from the grace of Allah and I ask Allah that I meet Him while I’m upon His Book and the Sunnah of His Prophet and the Manhaj of the Salaf.

There is no regret in what I said concerning the people of falsehood with truth, and if I said a mistake and they established a mistake on me, then I don’t want a mistake by Allah, I seek refuge in Allah from it, and inshaaAllaah I’m oft-returning to the truth.

But that which I said is what I worship Allah with, that they’re upon mistake and I advise them, and I see that what is obligatory is advising each other with the truth and patience, so nothing has changed from me not before or after in what I said about the opposers to the Manhaj of the Salaf and the Da’wah Salafiyyah and I ask Allah for success.

This speech that my condition has changed or feel regret in what I said concerning a Sufi or a Hizbi or Jam’iyyee, an old Hizbi or new Hizbi, all of this is nonsense.

And I don’t think that they are able to establish upon me a narration that there occured some change concerning that before or after and Allaah is the granter of success.
