• فما كان السلف يحطون على سالكه ويبدعونه،

  The predecessors used to condemn those who followed this path and declare them innovators,

  يَحُطُّونَ — they condemn. This present-tense verb is the partner of the earlier 'to be', and together they form the habitual past. It is a sound masculine plural ('they disparage'), the '-una' ending carrying 'they'. It pairs with the preposition next to say what they inveigh against.
