The Biography of Shaykh Muhammad Ibn


Abdul Wahhab

Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab, A name spoken of throughout the Muslim world,
but who is he? What are his teachings? Are they really in accordance to the Sunnah[4] of our
Messenger ( ?) What do we really know about him? Is he a reviver of the
religion of Islam as some people claim or is he one of the thirty dajjals[5] and a reviver of
the accursed cult known as the Khawaarij?

In order to understand such questions it is essential that we look to the biography of Shaykh
Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab to gain a fair understanding of what his life and mission was
all about. Therefore we shall look at his life from birth to death, and the impact that he had on
the Muslim world to this very day.
Birth and Birthplace
Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab, Born 1115 AH in the village of Uyainah of alYamaamah, in the Najd province of central Arabia northwest to the capitol of Saudi
Arabia [6] Riyaadh. This is the exact same location that gave home to Musaymiyah the liar.
[7]
His Said Education
Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab grew up in the house of his father, the great Sunni
[8] orthodox Shaykh ul-Islam, Abdul Wahhab Ibn Sulaymaan an-Najdi. He studied Hanbali
Fiqh under his father. His stubbornness in learning was noticed at a very young age by his
father to the point where Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab was forced to look for
other teachers whilst his father placed his main focus on the humble soon to be Shaykh ulIslam Sulaymaan Ibn Abdul Wahhab.
It is said that Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab travelled back and forth from Makkah
and Madinah in attempt to find suitable teachers that was able to satisfy his lust of bad
opinion. Therefore he sat with many Shuyukh, [9] but never completed his studies with them
being unsatisfied with their doctrine.
In Makkah he studied with a Shaafi scholar by the name of Abdullah Ibn Saalim al-Basri
who was the leading scholar of ahaadeeth in the hijaaz at the time [10]
He also studied under the great Hanbali jurist, Abu al-Muwahhib al-Baali [11] it is also said
he studied under other authorities such as Ali al-Daghstani, Ismaael al-Ajaluni, the great
scholar of ahaadeeth and Hanbli jurist Abdullah Ibn Ibraheem al-Saif, [12] a subcontinent
scholar from Indo-Pakistan Muhammad Hayaat as-Sindi, Muhammad Ibn Sulaymaan alKurdi and maybe more.
With Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhabs non contentment with valid scholarly
authority, his dissatisfaction drove him to obtain studies in Iraq. In this time Shaykh
Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab became heavily influenced by the creedal works of Imaam
Ibn Taymiyyah and his student Imaam Ibn Qayyum. In fact many areas in which these two
Imaams had only theorised by pen, Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab would later bring into
practice.
It was not the habit of Imaam Ibn Taymiyah to destroy graves and demolish domes and kill
anybody he deemed to be a mushrik, even though he made suggestions that extreme measures
should be enforced to prevent people from doing shirk. To the lack of Shaykh Muhammad
Ibn Abdul Wahhabs knowledge, Imaam Ibn Taymiyah later repented from such views after
he was defeated in a series of debates ranging from many issues, theological and in areas of
jurisprudence. [13]

Despite having studied under Hanbali, Shaafi and Hanafi teachers, Shaykh Muhammad Ibn
Abdul Wahhab declared war against the four traditional madh-habs [14] under the pretext it
was haraam[15] to blindly follow and trust any scholar as noted he forcibly contradicted
the blind following of any scholar[16] Thus he thought he knew better than all previous
scholarship, or yet was rather over satisfied with the opinions of Imaam Ibn Taymiyah and his
student Ibn Qayyum.
Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab was eventually drove out of Iraq by the local
learned scholars due to Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhabs sickness of referring to
unknowledgeable seekers of knowledge as mushriks, simply for not knowing enough about
Islam. He was forced to leave Iraq in the heat of the day and almost died of thirst. He found
himself begging for money to get to Syria, however after such a God decreed defeat, his
humiliation made him to return to Najd.
Though Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab had obtained studies from a variety of
scholars in different locations in the learned Muslim world, he did not, however, reach his
discipline, nor obtain any senate to teach in any science from any of the above mentioned
scholars. Moreover, none of his former teachers supported the doctrine he was soon to
espouse and it is proven from the texts of historians that his teachers spoke of him with much
negative critique.
Such as Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Sulaymaan al-Kurdi and Shaykh Muhammad al-Sindi who
both recognized his stubbornness and refusal to respect scholarly authority and said about
him Allah will allow this one to be led astray, miserable are the ones who are mislead by
him [Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab]. Both of these teachers eventually combined
with the brother of Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab [Sulaymaan Ibn Abdul Wahhab] to write
the classical text al-Sawaaiq al-Ilahiyah fi ar-radd ala al-Wahhabiyah in which his teacher
wrote
Dall mudlil, i.e. he [Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab] is misguided and misguiding. [17]
Even a Wahhab scholar wrote about the Shaykh in a Saudi published biography:
It seems that Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab was very attracted to reading again,
especially the writings of Ibn Taymiyyah and his student Ibn al-Qayyum (his teacher) alAjilaani even said that most of his knowledge was self taught!![18]
So it is seen from the presented facts that he was unqualified to act as an authority, nobody
gave him senate and he was self taught, brainwashed in the misguided opinions of Imaam Ibn
Taymiyah.
Upon his return, Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab would often attempt to debate great
theologians which eventually caused him to be expelled and banned from many towns and
villages. He even tried to debate his own father which led to a huge argument. His fathers
eyes flowed with tears after reading the filth and bad opinions packed into the theological fast
food sandwich, Kitaab ut-Tawheed.
His father soon after died in 1153 AH never again having spoken to Shaykh Muhammad Ibn
Abdul Wahhab since. Although before his death he would repeatedly tell the people You
will see much evil from my son Muhammad!

Since his father passed away, Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab felt more free to publicize his
deviant teachings more openly, although, underestimating the increase of knowledge of his
own brother Sulaymaan Ibn Abdul Wahhab whom his father had trained in his absence. His
father had trained young Sulaymaan well, giving him senate in Aqeedah, [19] Fiqh [20] and
other related sciences. Though Sulaymaan indeed had a difficult task ahead of him, he was all
the more ready.
Meanwhile, Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab began to gain support of highway
robbers and other criminals from around Najd, he was even given a small army of six
hundred men. Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhabs rise to power spelt death and
destruction, with his so called religious justifications. He permitted the shedding of blood of
people who say the Kalimah, thus making it permissible to take their property and place their
wives and children in captivity. He said in his Kashf ash-Shubbahaat:
The people that ask for intercession through the Prophets and Angels, calling upon them and
making supplication through their waseelah in attempt to draw nearer to Allah are committing
the greatest of sins. Thus it is permitted to kill them and take their property [21]
Even a modern committee of Wahhabi scholars admitted to this and confirmed this view
when it was said:
He [Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab] also made clear [to us] the true meaning of tawheed
[22]and that it is not simply pronouncing the testimony of faith la ilaha illallah (none
has the right to be worshipped except Allah); indeed, a person might be a disbeliever whose
blood is permissible to shed and whose property it is permissible to take and he might
pronounce the testimony of tawheed [23]
1. It is clear that the kalimah [24] will not save a person from their sword. They will kill
Muslims regardless.
2. This statement mirrors the very same creed that the earlier Khawaarij [25] held, that
its permissible to take the blood of those who pronounce the Kalimah, but yet
disagree with their views
3. Many ahaadeeth [26] prove that the kalimah is sufficient for one to be a Muslim
believer, we shall quote them in a another chapter and address this belief that strongly
implies that Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab believed in a deeds based
salvation as opposed to the Sunni stance of not despairing the Mercy of Allah.
His very first act was to march into a village with his six hundred or so bandits to demolish
the grave of Zaid ibn al-Khattab. Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab personally took an
axe and took it to the grave like a raving mad vandal. This was the first earthquake as the
people of the village stood in fear from the aftershock. Never before had they faced anything
like this.
Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab continued to pillage the neighbouring territories
such as Zabir, Ahsa, Huraimala, and his hometown Uyainah, indiscriminately killing Muslim
men women and children if they refused to accept his call. Those who did accept his call
were forced to shave their beards and their heads under the pretext it was the hair of kufr. [27]
He did not even spare the women from this ruling.

When the Khalifah [28] of the Muslims Sulaymaan Bin Urairar heard of this, they came with
an army to meet challenge the Wahhabi threat, in which made Shaykh Muhammad Ibn
Abdul Wahhab and his gang of vigilantes flee to Darriyah, fearing for their lifes.
The Pact With Ibn Saud
Impressed with the religious doctrine and actions Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab,
the ruler of Darriyah, Muhammad Ibn Saud knew that he could use Shaykh Muhammad Ibn
Abdul Wahhab and his doctrine to his own advantage, giving him the religious justification
he so needed to eventually take over the Hijaaz [29] and seat himself as the king of Arabia.
As one Wahhabi scholar admitted:
What was indeed extraordinary was the coincidence of the Alim and the prince,
Muhammad Ibn Saud, who felt the need for each other, and saw the wedding of idea to arm
[with weapons, by force] as a key to a new age of Islamic history [30]
They knew that the only way to take over the neighbouring villages was by force of doctrine
by threat of violence. Thus they prepared military wise. It even said by some historians that
Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab replaced the traditional swords with rifles supplied
by the British government.
Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab, now together with the Saudi reinforcements and a
much larger army raided Muslim territories regardless of hearing the Azaan.[31] The fact
was, according to Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab, their Shahaadah [32] was not sufficient,
thus he would make a habit of plundering Muslim territories whilst allowing pagans to freely
pass through Arabia without any attempt to convert them. In fact he never once raided a
pagan village.
His Kharijite traits became more apparent as he led rebellions against the Muslim rulers,
killing believing men, enslaving women and children, demolishing graves and places of
important heritage [making some into public toilets] all under the pretext that he was calling
the people back to the Quran and Sunnah, and the 800 year old lost teaching tawheed.
He even had a blind man executed for simply sending peace and blessings on the Prophet (
) after he had made the call of Azaan. He did this under the pretext that he
needed to preserve the purity of tawheed for the people as the action of the blind man may
have led to shirk. [33]
Much of the historical manuscripts of the scholarly works were destroyed by the Wahhabi
cult, as libraries were burnt to the ground, and even Quranic texts were even scattered
around on the streets and trampled on without a care.
From the year 1159AH, the central Arabia was never to be the same. Jihaad [34] was
declared against any Muslim who did not accept the Wahhabi call. It was the case of: you
either join us or die. This is exactly what the Khawaarij did to anybody that disregarded their
theology. Like the Sahaabi [35] Khabaab who was martyred fro simply quoting a hadeeth in
defence of Ali. Not only did they kill him, but they killed his wife and unborn child by
slicing open her stomach and letting the contents fall to the floor.

The contemporary scholars that lived to see the Wahhabi threat and re-emergence of the
Khawaarij documented works concerning his corrupt theology, including his own his own
brother Shaykh ul-Islam Sulaymaan Ibn Abdul Wahhab. They are first hand witnesses to the
historical happenings that have all documented the same truths concerning the Wahhabi cult
and its call.
Shaykh ul-Islam Sulaymaan Ibn Abdul Wahhab said to his own brother
The horn of Shaytaan that the Prophet ( ) referred to is you [Muhammad Ibn
Abdul Wahhab]. [36]
As the abundance of historical facts demonstrate, Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab was no
reviver of Islam. Infact the movement denied eight hundred years of Islamic revival! The
I.I.F.S.O translation of Kitaab ut-Tawheed informs us in the preface
The movement was born out of a realization that Muslims had far too long been on a
decline [37]
Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhabs arrogance knew no bounds as he opined that the
great majority of scholars that predated him were mushrikeen [idolators] and thus kuffar [i.e.
disbelievers]. He therefore rejected eight hundred years of authentic scholarship as being
upon misguidance and innovation.
The claim is that he is [second to Ibn Taymiyah] the only reviver Allah has sent in eight
hundred years of scholarship which contradicts the hadeeth of the Messenger of Allah sal
Allahu alayhi wasallam is which he said:
Allah will raise for this community at the end of every hundred years the one who will
renovate its religion for it. [38]
However, amongst the known revivers of each century who have been well documented,
none of them [39] ever spoke of the same ideologies as Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Abdul
Wahhab, or his forefather in creed Imaam Ibn Taymiyah.
For example, who before Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab and Ibn Taymiyah, felt the need to
divide and categorize tawheed into two, three or four parts? There was none! The same can
be said in the many areas of creed in which Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab and Imaam Ibn
Taymiyah have contradicted the consensus of the Ahl us-Sunnah wal-Jamaaah.
Implicit claim to Prophet-hood
Some scholars even noted that he made an implicit claim to Prophet-hood, though not
claiming prophet-hood verbally. The following factors help demonstrate this point:
1. Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab named the people of Najd that chose to
follow him [either by force or free will] the Ansaar [i.e. the helpers] Just as the
Prophet ( ) called the people of Madinah the Ansaar for helping the
Muhajireen. Likewise Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhabs non Najdi followers was
labelled the Muhajiroon. The message sounded very clear as Muhammad Ibn Abdul
Wahhab opined Makkah and Medinah to be in a deep state of kufr with all the grave

worship happening there so much so that he deemed the Hijaaz [Makkah and
Medinah] to be dar ul-Kufr and his hometown Najd to be dar ul-Mumineen. Even
Najd [al-Yamaamah] became to be spoken of as the heart of all Arabia as Wahhabi
follower Jamal Zarabozo stated in his biography of Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab
al-Yamaamah is the heart [not Makkah or Madinah] of the entire Arabian
peninsula [40] In this age they have called it Riyaadh and still classify it as the
capitol of Saudi Arabia [41] their disregard to the two holy sanctuaries can clearly
be seen in this point.
2. With his authority he did not act like a ruler [Qadi] or even a humble scholar. He
acted like a Prophet as Muslims would be executed for simply questioning his
divinely inspired wisdom in deriving judgements.
3. Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab made it very clear that he deemed anybody who
rejected his mission as a disbeliever, almost as if they had denied a Prophet! He would
instruct new believers to his cult to witness against themselves that they were
previously kuffar [disbelievers] and that their parents was also kuffar before they
could be considered as true Wahhabi believers. This is despite them previously saying
the testimony of faith [i.e. the Shahaadah] la ilaha illa Allah there is no deity
except Allah! As Muhmmad Ibn Abdul Wahhab has claimed in a number of his
works, that the Shahaadah is not sufficient for one to enter paradise! If a Muslim was
to reject his call, they would be beheaded on the spot.
4. He commanded men and women to shave their heads as he deemed it the hair of
kufr. This was his misinterpretation of a hadeeth that spoke of the hair underneath
the armpits and the genital hairs. This action was unique to his call and the Prophet
forewarned us of this sigh when he said their sign is that they will shave their heads.
5. Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab abrogated much of the ahadeeth about fighting in
the hijaaz [which the Prophet ( ) forbade] yet Muhammad Ibn Abdul
Wahhab considered himself such an authority to permit the killing of Muslims, even
by the side of the Kabah.
6. This is the most greatest point. When the Prophet sal Allahu alayhi wasallam entered
Makkah and destroyed the idols, Allah sent down the ayah Verily the truth has come
and falsehood has perished. This meant that idolatry had been totally obliterated in
the Hijaaz and that Shaytaan lost all hope of misguiding the Muslims to worship
taghut. This happening was a great sign and symbol of Prophet Muhammads [sal
allahu alayhi wasallam] Risaalah, yet Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Abd ul-Wahhab
claimed that the hijaaz was riddled with idol worship and that he had been sent with a
mission to destroy the idol worship in Arabia, thus he implicitly called to his own
message, thus he is nothing more than a false Prophet.
These are amongst the few indictors of his implicit claim to prophecy. His followers can also
be seen giving him the status of a Prophet throughout many Wahhabi works, such as The life,
Teachings and Influence of Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab by Jamal Zarabozo who states in
the chapter entitled Motivation Behind This Work was to
Defend the honour and truth of their religion, their Prophet, and their brethren [42]
This really refers to the cult of Salafism the Salafi Prophet Shaykh Muhammad Ibn
Abdul Wahhab and their Salafi brethren! In one translation of Mukhtasar Seerat ur-Rasul,

more praise and attention is given to introducing Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab, than the
little that is spoken of regarding the Prophet ( ) himself:
After Imaam Muhammad bin Saud Islamic university had decided to hold a conference in
the name of Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab [not in the name of Allah, or his Rasul],
it formed a committee to prepare for this conference and to provide a detailed concept of it
and then to implement it. The committee began its work by restating its general objective for
the conference, which was to inform people about the Shaykh [not Prophet Muhammad (
) , but the Shaykh] and reveal the truth about his dawah [not the Prophet
Muhammads ( ) dawah, but the dawah of Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab]
A few points can be seen from this above statement
1. This is a book that is supposed to be talking about the biography of the Prophet (
) , yet the opening credits somehow go to Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Abdul
Wahhab
2. A conference is held, not in the name of Allah nor His Messenger () ,
but yet in the name of Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab. Would the shoe been
on the other foot, the Wahhabis would have been all to quick to accuse of of shirk for
having a conference in the name of a Sufi Shaykh, etc.
3. Whilst the great majority of Muslims around the world hold conferences in
celebration of the Prophets ( ) birth and gather together to speak about
his birth etc, Wahhabis are all to quick to slam us with the charges of innovation and
heresy, but yet here they are celebrating Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab
week. This exposes their hypocrisy.
4. The general objective as seen from above is not to promote the dawah of the
Messenger of Allah () , but to specifically promote the dawah of
Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab.
As long as Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab occupies a position of doctrinal
authority in the hearts of Wahhabis, they are to be considered a cult, a new religion. One
regular visitor to the hijaaz having seen the golden ages of the Sunni era noted that a new
religion had begun with the appearance of Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab. [43]
His Death
He died a miserable death at the age of ninety-two years old in 1792 AD and was buried in an
unmarked grave, nobody could visit him or pray for him nor place twigs in his grave which is
a prophetic Sunnah that one may receive the mercy of Allah. Where ever his grave might be,
it is unknown. His grave is also a bidah, to bury somebody in an unknown and unmarked
grave is indeed an innovation. We all know where the Messenger of Allah sal Allahu alayhi
wasallam and his blessed companions are buried, and this is because they did not command
their followers to bury them in unknown graves.
Further more, it is noted:
By the time of his death, he had seen his teachings spread throughout all of Najd and much
of al-Ahsaa. Ibn Abdul Wahhab had also seen the first signs of its potential against the
leaders of the hijaaz [44]

His death led to a brutal raid on the holy sanctuaries , Makkah and Madinah in which many
orthodox scholars was put to the sword. This demonstrates again that Shaykh Muhammad Ibn
Abdul Wahhab and his followers are the modern day Khawaarij and they did Kharuj [45]
against the ameers and Khalifahs of the hijaaz. Plus Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab
permitted fighting by the side of the Kabah, when the Prophet ( ) clearly said:
Allah and not the people has made Mecca a sanctuary. So anybody who has belief in
Allah and the Last Day (i.e. a Muslim) should neither shed blood in it nor cut down its
trees. If anybody argues that fighting is allowed in Mecca as Allahs Apostle did fight (in
Mecca), tell him that Allah gave permission to His Apostle, but He did not give it to you.
The Allah allowed me only for a few hours on that day (of the conquest) and today
(now) its sanctity is the same (valid) as it was before. So it is incumbent upon those who
are present to convey it (this information) to those who are absent. [46]
The Books Of Fitaan He Left Behind
From some of the thirty or more books he has authored are

Kitaab ut-Tawheed
Al-Usul ul-Thalatha

Kashf ash-Shubahaat

Kitaab al-Kabaair

Mukhtasar Seerat ur-Rasul ()

Many books of Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab have not yet seen a publishing house
and are still in manuscript form, let alone translated. They all expose the creed of Muhammad
Ibn Abdul Wahhab as being from the Khawaarij if one is to carefully examine the texts for
his theology. With this chapter alone I have demonstrated how the modern day Wahhabi cult
are none other than the re-emergence of the end of times Khawwarij prophesised in the
ahaadeeth of the Messenger of Allah () . However will shall continue and
cover every angle.

[4] The creed, speech and actions of the Messenger ()


[5] One of the thirty liars that have been prophesized to emerge in the last days of time.
[6][6] The reader may wonder at why I have chosen to put this sentence in inverted commas.
It is important to note that my Aqeedah is that Arabia is called Jazeerat ul-Arab, as it was
called in the Holy Prophets ( ) time and not the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
as described today. Reason being it is wrong to name such holy lands after a tyrant, plus
innovation. If anything the country should have been called the Kingdom of the Prophet
Muhammad () , however due to the Prophets known character of much
humility, he would most likely tell me to call it Jazeerat ul-Arab. Secondly, it is my Aqeedah
that the capital city, or cities rather, in Arabia are Makkah and Madinah and not Riyaadh!
The Prophet ( ) did not like Riyaadh as it is a source of great fitaan. Thus, for
this sentence, inverted commas. See Darussalams The Concise collection on Creed and
Tawheed, p. 13 for the capitol of Saudi Arabia Riyaadh.
[7] Musaymimah the liar. He claimed to be a Prophet of Allah after Muhammad and
composed his own poetry attempting to compete with the Quran. One verse read O
beautiful cat, what nice fluffy ears you have however, despite his stupid claims and poetry
he managed to build a following of thirty thousand and planned to attack Makkah and
Madinah upon hearing about the Prophets ( ) passing away. Abu Bakr sent
Khaleed Ibn Waleed and an army to Najd which is famously known as the batlle of
Yamaamah, where many huffaz died. Washee was the one honored by Allah to redeem
himself by killing Musaymimah the liar with his spear. Washee was the slave of Abu
Sufyaans wife Bint and was responsible for the martyrdom of Hamza before his conversion
to Islam.
[8] Sunni is a western derived term from a person who follows the Ahl us-Sunnah walJamaaah. It is important to note here that there are ignorant Muslims in this day of age
promoting the creed that we should not be Sunnis, Shia, Wahhabis, Deobandis etc, but we
should be Muslims. Although there is a correctness hidden within their falsehood the Prophet
( ) has commanded us to be Sunnis in the following hadeeth: Adhere to my
Sunnah and the Sunnah of the rightly guided Khalifahs that come after me. Bite upon it with
your molar teeth [nawaakhidh] and beware of newly invented matters [in creed, and actions]
for certainly every newly invented matter is an innovation and every innovation is a
misguidance Musnad of Imaam Ahmad narrated by al-Irbaad Bin Saariyah, hadeeth no.
17145, Sunan Abu Dawud, Kitaab us-Sunnah, hadeeth no. 4607 Imaam Nawawis Forty

[13] The repentance of Imaam Ibn Taymiyah is documented, however many Ashari scholars
of Egypt had doubts about his repentance and still kept him imprisoned. See Encylopedia of
Islamic Doctrine, vol. 1, p. 65. In the best opinion, he died a Sunni Muslim upon the creed of
the Ahl us-Sunnah wal-Jamaaah after repenting from his corrupt views, although not being
able to correct them by way of writing as his writing materials was taken away from him.
Upon his death, the very same scholars that condemned him, and those who debated him
prayed over him at his Janaazah, which strongly implies that he was considered and buried as
a Muslim believer.

[22] Tawheed as the Prophet ( ) and is companions taught is the testimony that
there is no god but Allah and Muhammad is his messenger. Anybody who testifies to this
should not be killed. This can be seen from the hadeeth where the Prophet ()
said I have been ordered to fight the people till they say: None has the right to be
worshipped but Allah. And if they say so, pray like our prayers, face our Qibla and slaughter
as we slaughter, then their blood and property will be sacred to us and we will not interfere
with them except legally and their reckoning will be with Allah. Saheeh al-Bukhaari, vol. 1,
hadeeth no. 387 this hadeeth serves as an evidence against Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab
who was taught it was permissible to kill people who testified to the Kalimah, more will be
said of this in following chapters. Therefore tawheed is synonymous with the kalimah which
is to testify there is no god but Allah. This is tawheed.

Asalam alakum
From your article and what I read elsewhere I see that Abdul Wahhabi was against
grave and visiting to it. Can you please explain the issue that would take them out of
the fold of Islam? For today grave worship is biggest issue in Islamic world for it is
something done by all religion and is always used to show how there is no difference
between Muslims and other religion. I personally see more than 90% of innovation
and shirk happening at these grave. Islam is a clear religion which say to believe Allah
and follow Prophet Muhammad PBUH. We can trust and ask Allah without anyone in
the middle. Also the practice of keeping reminders of righteous men whether in form
of graves or statues is what started shirk from time of Nuh AS. Also Abu Bakr RA
have to fight with the Muslims who denied giving zakat after death of Prophet
Muhammad PBUH so if something like grave worship is so deep rooted in Muslims
today that its causing fitna and shirk it need some strong actions.

The issue that takes them out of the fold is not their bad opinion about other
Muslims but their calling to kill Muslims. Allah tells us in the Quran that
whoever murders a believer intentionally shall face the hell fire for all eternity.
The act of the Wahhabiyyah by accusing Muslims of calling on other than
Allah, calling them mushrikeen and deeming their blood and property
permissable is a big issue, not just of ther fitnah caused thereby, but the
theologicial impliclation that the hijaz was in need of Muhammad Ibn Abdul
Wahhab to somehow revive tawheed.

That is clear in present times yet what does history show us?
The first Saudi state, the second Saudi state and the third Saudi state.
The first being when Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhabs very own son took over
the hijaaz with military might, the third being especially with the support of
the English, as a direct result of the Peacott agreement which was part and
parcel of giving Palestine to the Jews.
So yes, very Khawaarij,
Plus there is no other cult that believes that
1. The Muslims are upon shirk
2. Their blood is permissible
3. Their property is permissible
4. Their women and children are permissible
They are the Khawaarij. It does not take much to look through such texts as
Kashf ush-Shubuhaat to clearly see the Khawaarij ideologies being presented
through Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhabs works

The Shaykh of Wahhabism, Muhammad bin Abd al-Wahhab said in one of his letters:

.

[Source: "Ar-Rasa`il ash-Shakhsiyyah" ]
[Translation:]
And I inform you about myself I swear by Allah whom there is none worthy to
worship except Him I have sought knowledge and those who knew me believed that
I had knowledge while I did not know the meaning of La Ilaha Illa Allah at that time
and did not know the religion of Islam before this grace that Allah favored. As well as
my shaikhs (teachers) no one among them knew that. And if someone from the
scholars of al-Arid (the lands of Najd and surrounding areas) claims that he knew the
meaning of La Ilaha Illa Allah or knew the meaning of Islam before this time, or
claims on behalf of his teachers that someone from them knew that, then he has lied
and said falsehood and deceived people and praised himself with something he does
not possess.

How unfair is that to lie so outrageously in the face of so many misguided users who
blindly listen to you just because you share the same line of opinions and ideas with
them?I would not mind you deleting this comment of mine but I will just feel a sense
of release just for telling you what you are.I think the main reason why people would
enter into the hell fire is that they refuse to use their brains to think about such
important matters as religion
I am also not here to tell you that Abdul Wahhab is right or wrong but to present him
as who he really is,not lies about him.Remember the same lies non-muslims spread
about the Prophet (SAWS) ? Be fair with yourself and question your faith again?Have
you done the right thing by laying out these misconceptions about Abdul Wahhab ?

Brother I dont think the admin actually wrote these lines, you can find them
in the books of Mohammed ibn Abdul Al Wahhab, I honestly believe that he
was trying to mirror himself to the Prophet Mohamed saws
(if you read between the lines, as if he is the holder of knowledge )
in the same way youve just (Consciously or Unconsciously ) put it, without
realising you have compared him to the Prophet saws :)

One final thing, Why dont you tell us in your own words then who this
Mohammed Abdul Wahhab really is ?
Instead of accusing all of us of being misguided and following blindly you are
passing judgements on people that you do not know, how much have you read
about him and the things that he did ?
Have you ever heard a Hadeeth where Prophet saws spoke about different
categories of Tawheed ?
Since when a blood of a Muslim is permissible or any other blood for that
matter except in self defense ?
Have ever heard of the Prophet killing anybody without a reason or in self
defense ?
And since when you compare this guy to the messenger of Allah ? You seem
to forget one thing
the Prophet peace be upon him was the perfect human being that Allah
created since when Mohamed ibn Abdul Wahhab is now compared to the
Aadham Bachar ?
Do you read yourself at all ?

Assalam Alaykum,
Brother, I agree that we should always expose evil wherever it maybe and yes I do
agree that the Wahhabite and other sects are from the shaytan they main aim is to
spread and create confusion and doubts in peoples hearts as I always said the devil
plays several cards all at once.
He is the master of deception, as a Muslim I refuse to subscribe to any group all I
know is that I am a Muslim I will Insha Allah follow the path of Allah and his
messenger the Sunna of the prophet Mohamed (peace be upon him) and all of this
nonsense is irrelevant.
However I do agree that we need to remain on our guards and not be complacent he
works night and day to mislead us in anyway he can.
People have to realise that he is a powerful enemy they try to darken Islam as much as
they possibly can and mostly to prevent new comers to this dine of truth and love.
In other words hell do everything to keep people in a total darkness.
And I do agree with you, that we should bring those brothers call them back to the
right path, and the way to do that is to confront them with evidence, and not emotional
call.
They also need to be very aware that theres no such thing as Salafi, its merely
another trick to make them believe they are closer to Allah while in fact they are
further away from Allah.
Wahhabism is in reality nothing else than Salafism, because Salafism looks more
attractive to the believers and they are under the impression theyre doing the right
thing.
May Allah show us the right path and help us all come through these difficult times,
and particularly through this Dajjals tribulation and more to come yet, I believe we
havent seen nothing yet.

The other thing Muslims Insha Allah should realise is to never fall for the Zionists
trap if you look around us today, a very carefully crafted plan is taking place to get us
to war with the rest of the world.
Humanity as a whole and Muslims in particular are facing a great danger, just look
what is happening the Muslim world if anyone believes that it is all coincidence or
even considers the fact that all of this uprising is really the will of the people, Id say
think again.
Assalam Alykum

Salem Alaykum all
I have to ask a question, I hope you dont mind brother on the top of this website you
have or the web designer had put the devils horns and his tail my question brother is
this:
Is it really necessary?
Al Wahab is another name for Allah, I just thought to mention it, may Allah guide us
all.
However the article is very interesting I was wondering if you could provide us with
some references that would be great Jazak Allah kheir.
I was always weary first of the Wahhabi movement and their dark doctrine, Although
Imam Ibn Taymiya was a scholar I never followed him I always check other Ulama
knowing that he is not very reliable and Allah knows best.
The Alliance with Ibn Saud and the British made me very weary of the Wahabi
movement even if Mohamed Ibn Abd El Wahhab was a genuine cheikh I wouldnt
trust anything coming from the Saudis knowing what kind of a filth they are.
We need more evidence with some historical facts in order to be absolutely certain,
remember that when the Saudis came to power they destroyed a lot of evidences and
falsified a lot of documents, to suit their agenda and the agenda of their masters the

British I just want to be absolutely certain that all of these events did in fact take
place.
Although I read in many other documents that he murdered innocent people and he
went on rampage of killing anything that moved including a child on his mothers
breast.
If he indeed did that he is No Muslim, because even if those people were of another
religion or even atheists he has no justification whatsoever in doing what he did.
The prophet saws during a battle when the enemy fell to the ground and shouted the
shahada another companion or another Muslim killed the soldier despite him shouting
Achehadou Ana la Illah a Ila Allah when asked by the Prophet (peace be upon him)
why did you do that, he said well he only said it from fear, the Apostle of Allah
replied oh really now you know what was in his heart?
That is pretty much sums it up, and proves that Mohamed Ibn Abd ElWahhab was not
following the Sunna of Rassoul Allah, he was following his own Dogma Wa Allah
knows best.

The horns represent a hadeeth Qarn ash-Shaytaan and are there to remind
people that the Wahhabi cult is in fact the cult of Shaytaan.
Secondly, al-Jabbar, al-Qadeer and al-Kareem are also names of Allah yet their
derivatives have been used for cultists by the Ulemaa. There is nothing wrong
with this labeling as it is a preventative measure. We cannot go into a shop and
be expected not to have labels on tins of food, we need to know the difference

Thank you for this very comprehensive biography. It appears to be completely
airtight, and I doubt any Wahhabi will be able to successfully refute it. At best, a
group of them will post it on IslamicAwakening and a council of DIY scholars will
get together and deem you kaafir, jahmee, and mushreek.
I do have one question though: Does this mean anyone who devoutly follows the
Wahhabi ideology is kafir?

the prophet peace be upon him said if one deemed the other as a kafir,
either one of them had committed kufur, either the person had unjustly
said about another muslim a kafir so he had committed kufur, or one
had heard from or seen from someone kufur so he justly called him a

it is important for the muslim nation to learn the types of kufir
so they refrain from it, there are three types 1. belief, 2. saying
3. action, eg. of belief if someone says Allah exists in a place or
sits on the throne he had likened Allah to his creation, Allah
said in the holy Quran He (Allah) who does not resemble any
of his creations. eg. of saying if someone curses Allah or the
prophets or the quran then he has blasphemed. eg of action if
someone throws intentionally knowing the quran on the floor or
in a bin then he blasphemes. This is what the 4 major scholars
agreed upon (Shafeeyy, Hanafiyy, Hanbaliyy and Malikiyy)

A fatawaa of kufr can only be given by a Qadi. a
layman cannot just go and call somebody a
kaafir. there is a process.
Sure. Wahhabi-ism is a kaafir cult, no doubt, i

mean that everybody that follows Muhammad

Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab, despite studying superficially under some major
prominent scholars of his time, was very self opinionated. This would often be a
direct result of what he understood or misunderstood even of Imaam Ibn
Taymiyyahs writings.
Abu Rumysah admits in his brief biography of Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab:
As a young man, and more so in his later life, he was exposed to the writings of Ibn
Taymiyyah and Ibn al-Qayyum and studied them extensively, personally transcribing
many of Ibn Taymiyyahs books p. 14
It has to be noted here that in English we only use the word exposed but in a negative
context. E.g. he was exposed to nuclear materials causing his skin to boil, or Ted
Bundy was exposed to materials that were pornographic nature, and this fed his lusts
until he wanted something more.
We also notice from this that it is not mentioned that anybody taught him the texts of
Imaam Ibn Taymiyyah or his student Ibn al-Qayyum. As suggested, he simply picked
up these writings and read for himself without the guide of a scholar. Imaam
Sulaymaan Ibn abdul Wahhab, his brother, wrote a refutation against him called asSawaaiq al-Ilahiyyah in which Imaam Sulaymaan constantly points out the many
places where Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab even misrepresented the positions of
Imaam Ibn Taymiyyah, thus attributing falsehood to him.
Ibn Taymiyyah is not prefect, but he is not guilty of all of the flaws that Muhammad
Ibn Abdul Wahhab claimed to have championed from him.
This is why reading and studying books without authentic scholars is dangerous,
because you are prone to misunderstand the wording and mode of the text, and take it
differently of how the author originally understood it.

Salamun alaykum, I hope these help. Sorry that you have to scroll around a
bit
[1] Encyclopedia Britanica Micropedia vol. X, p. 511

[2] Lumat ul-Itiqaad [Sufficiency in Creed] The Wahhabi version, p. 185


[3] I have utilized books such as Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab His Life
and Mission by Abdul Aziz Ibn Abdullah Ibn Baz; A Breif History of the
Wahhabi Movement by Jamal Effendi, Encyclopedia of Islamic Doctrine
vol.1, pp. 188-197 Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhabs Mukhtasar Seerat urRasul, the translation which also begins with the mention of Muhammad Ibn
Abdul Wahhab and his mission. The life, Teachings and Influence of
Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab by Jamal Zarabozo, Encyopedias and other
types of historical reference works.
[4] The creed, speech and actions of the Messenger ()
[5] One of the thirty liars that have been prophesized to emerge in the last days
of time.
[6][6] The reader may wonder at why I have chosen to put this sentence in
inverted commas. It is important to note that my Aqeedah is that Arabia is
called Jazeerat ul-Arab, as it was called in the Holy Prophets ()
time and not the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia as described today. Reason
being it is wrong to name such holy lands after a tyrant, plus innovation. If
anything the country should have been called the Kingdom of the Prophet
Muhammad () , however due to the Prophets known character
of much humility, he would most likely tell me to call it Jazeerat ul-Arab.
Secondly, it is my Aqeedah that the capital city, or cities rather, in Arabia are
Makkah and Madinah and not Riyaadh! The Prophet ( ) did not
like Riyaadh as it is a source of great fitaan. Thus, for this sentence, inverted
commas. See Darussalams The Concise collection on Creed and Tawheed, p.
13 for the capitol of Saudi Arabia Riyaadh.
[7] Musaymimah the liar. He claimed to be a Prophet of Allah after
Muhammad and composed his own poetry attempting to compete with the
Quran. One verse read O beautiful cat, what nice fluffy ears you have
however, despite his stupid claims and poetry he managed to build a following
of thirty thousand and planned to attack Makkah and Madinah upon hearing
about the Prophets ( ) passing away. Abu Bakr sent Khaleed
Ibn Waleed and an army to Najd which is famously known as the batlle of
Yamaamah, where many huffaz died. Washee was the one honored by Allah to
redeem himself by killing Musaymimah the liar with his spear. Washee was
the slave of Abu Sufyaans wife Bint and was responsible for the martyrdom
of Hamza before his conversion to Islam.
[8] Sunni is a western derived term from a person who follows the Ahl usSunnah wal-Jamaaah. It is important to note here that there are ignorant
Muslims in this day of age promoting the creed that we should not be Sunnis,
Shia, Wahhabis, Deobandis etc, but we should be Muslims. Although there is
a correctness hidden within their falsehood the Prophet ( ) has
commanded us to be Sunnis in the following hadeeth: Adhere to my Sunnah
and the Sunnah of the rightly guided Khalifahs that come after me. Bite upon
it with your molar teeth [nawaakhidh] and beware of newly invented matters

[in creed, and actions] for certainly every newly invented matter is an
innovation and every innovation is a misguidance Musnad of Imaam Ahmad

Kitaab us-Sunnah, hadeeth no. 4607 Imaam Nawawis Forty Hadeeth, hadeeth
no. 28; and is classified as a Saheeh hadeeth. The one who follows the Sunnah

[13] The repentance of Imaam Ibn Taymiyah is documented, however many
Ashari scholars of Egypt had doubts about his repentance and still kept him
imprisoned. See Encylopedia of Islamic Doctrine, vol. 1, p. 65. In the best
opinion, he died a Sunni Muslim upon the creed of the Ahl us-Sunnah walJamaaah after repenting from his corrupt views, although not being able to
correct them by way of writing as his writing materials was taken away from
him. Upon his death, the very same scholars that condemned him, and those
who debated him prayed over him at his Janaazah, which strongly implies that
he was considered and buried as a Muslim believer.

[22] Tawheed as the Prophet ( ) and is companions taught is the
testimony that there is no god but Allah and Muhammad is his messenger.
Anybody who testifies to this should not be killed. This can be seen from the
hadeeth where the Prophet ( ) said I have been ordered to
fight the people till they say: None has the right to be worshipped but Allah.
And if they say so, pray like our prayers, face our Qibla and slaughter as we
slaughter, then their blood and property will be sacred to us and we will not
interfere with them except legally and their reckoning will be with Allah.
Saheeh al-Bukhaari, vol. 1, hadeeth no. 387 this hadeeth serves as an evidence
against Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab who was taught it was permissible to
kill people who testified to the Kalimah, more will be said of this in following
chapters. Therefore tawheed is synonymous with the kalimah which is to
testify there is no god but Allah. This is tawheed.
[23] Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhabs Mukhtasar Seerat ur-Rasul p. 18
[24] Literally means a word or statement, but in the context of Aqeedah its
linguistic reference is to tawheed, testifying to Allahs Oneness and His
Messenger Muhammad ()

eventually exit out of the fold of Islam by killing Muslim believers

be seen simply from the hadeeth in which the Prophet ( ) says
The harshness of heart and sternness is in the East and faith is among the

Verily! Fighting in Mecca was not permitted for anyone before me nor will it
be permitted for anyone after me. It (war) in it was made legal for me for few
hours or so on that day. No doubt it is at this moment a sanctuary also in
vol. 3, hadeeth no. 58; hadeeth no. 60; vol. 4, hadeeth no. 412; vol. 5, hadeeth
no 603; and volume 9, hadeeth number. 19. Thus there is no ambiguity to the
authenticity and strength of this hadeeth, having numerous chains of isnaad.

Assalamu aleykum
I liked the biography, very detailed. What I dont understand is that
Ive heard that deobandis are wahhabis but they say they are hanafi?
And if someone is a wahabbi, is he kafir?

Wa alaykum as-Salam
Deobandis are not a sect. I am not saying that all of them are
perfectly upon the creed, and there are certainly Deobandis that
are upon the Wahhabi creed, however I do believe that there are

Sunni Deobandis and Wahhabi Deobandis. I am still ignorant to


many aspects of this subject and have only commented from a
fair observation.
With Wahhabis,we should accept them as Muslims unless an
authority with the right to judge and declare takfeer upon them
has done so. Until then we should keep good opinion regarding
their emaan, Allah may even guide them to a path better than
that He has chose for us.
May we all be in Allahs grace
Wa as-Salam

Very helpful, but maybe you could explain what more of the strictly Islaamic terms
mean without the use of other Islaamic terms? Im an infidel, and though helpful, Im
still a bit in the dark.

Hi, greetings and thank you for your question. I will try to help you with any
term you need. It is important to note that the word for a non-believer in Islam
is Kaafir, but it is only negative when used in a very demeaning manner. I used
to be a Kaafir at one point, and I still get called a Kaafir by Wahhabi
Muslims very often despite my testimony of faith in Islam. I do however
object to translating the word Kaafir as infidel, as this term has been borrowed
from Latin Christianity http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infidel and it does not
really encourage or appeal to outsiders. My understanding of both Islam and
Christianity is that Jesus spoke the Gospel with words of mercy, not hate, not
discrimination, we are also commanded to preach with wisdom and humility
within the Quran. It is a sad fact that religious people tend not to understand
the key principles of the religion that they claim, yet with this said it is not the
religion at fault. I do not pretend to be perfect and free from sin myself, but
recognize the hypocritical behaviour within even myself at times, and this is
the importance of belief, praying to God. To rise up from your prayers a better
person. I am happy to discuss, and help with whatever I can. Peace

Salam Alaykoum,
I do agree, but infidel which means youre not of that religion and it is
not an insult as in french for instance, to say something like Example:
Fidle a sa femme he is being truthful to his wife.
And I do agree with you that it is not the religions fault but its
interpretation sometimes intentionally sometimes from sheer
ignorance.
Another example that I use all the time when people start to denigrate
Islam is the following:
It is not the highway codes fault that some morons drive recklessly
without any consideration to other road users, the highway code is
there for all to follow, when they arrest someone driving like a lunatic
why dont they ever blame it on the highway code but when a Muslim
or anyone who claims to be a Muslim does something, the religion of
Islam automatically gets it in the neck and accusing it, I am not talking
about the instigators and the conspirators who are working tirelessly to
demonize the religion of Allah, but about the average people and why
dont they use some common sens and find out for themselves what is
this religion all about?
The Wahhabi sect has been operating for over 200 years its nothing
new, it is not something they cropped up out of the thin air, it has been
very carefully crafted and worked its way very stealthy to this day and
its been financed by the descendants of Al Saud, they spend fortunes
to see that Islam is undermined and destroyed that is their aim and
prime objective we need to be extremely careful and not be lazy and
complacent.
May Allah guides us all on the straight path
Salam Alaykoum.

Salam, I agree with what you are saying, yet the word kaafir in
Arabic does not always refer to an enemy of Islam, it can also
denote somebody who has not yet embraced Islam and that
person may be a positive person who Allah loves dearly that He
will guide them to Islam. Yet their present state may be kufr in
which they are a kaafir. I do not think you can butter up infidel
with the same line of thought
