Here is a lecture that was delivered at Markaz Muaadh in 2014, by Abu 'Iyaad Amjad Rafiq (hafidhahullah Ta'ala).
In it, he (hafidhahullah Ta'ala) explains the various terms that were used to describe the people of Sunnah, by the earlier generations. He speaks about the era wherein an abundance of innovations entered into this ummah, explaining in chronological context. Once these historical foundations are laid down, he clarifies why Ahlus-Sunnah are to be grateful for the guidance Allaah has bestowed upon them.
May Allaah reward our brother for sharing his great insight in this topic.
