Salafi refers to a fundamentalist movement within Sunni Islam that emphasizes a return to the practices of the early generations of Muslims. These are often described as the "pious predecessors" (al-salaf al-??li?). Salafis adhere to a literal interpretation of the Quran and the Sunna (the Prophet Muhammad's teachings and practices). The movement is characterized by its emphasis on purifying Islam from what it perceives as later accretions and innovations.
