mainstreamIslam

Mainstream Islaam is the Islaam that the majority of muslims have followed sense the time of the Salaf. The Prophet(3alayhi al-salatu wa al-salaam) said:
"Who (ever) defected from the obedience (to the Amir) and separated from the main body of the Muslims - then he died in that state - would die the death of one belonging to the days of Jahiliyya (pre-Islamic ignorance). (Sahih Muslim, 3/4557 & 4555).
So DO NOT separate from "the main body of the Muslims" by following a small sect called salafeyyah or wahhabeyyah.
Mainstream Islaam is represented by the 4 schools of taught(Hanafi, Maliki, Shafi'i and hanbali) in fiqh(jurisprudence), and the Maturidi and ash'ari schools when it comes to 'aqeedah(creed).

The ones who gave us the Holy Qur'an are the ones who gave us the true sunna of the Prophet(3alayhi salaam). So if they are trustworthy with the Quran then they are also trustworthy with the sunna.
