Slafiyah is a current among Muslims that has roots in the earliest centuries of Islam and Hanbali religion, but its real formation made by Ibn-Taimiyah Harrani in the seventh and the eighth century after Hijrah. This current believes that they should have an exact imitation from the earliest generations of Muslims to perform true Islam. In this research the writings of two main think makers of Salafiyah: Ibn-Taimiyah and Rashid Ridha for the goal of explaining the relationship between their thoughts and Arab national tendency. This area of research is especially important because there have been some racialist remarks from Saudi clergy against Iran nowadays. the result has been gained that those Salafi thoughts has not targeted the performance of true Islam only, but it seems that it has paid an special attention to a kind of Arabic Islam has related the purity of Islam to the purity of Arab race or nation so that they believe Islam only deviated when Ajams overcame Arab.
