The opinion of Sunni scholars on Wahhabism (part 3)

Zaini Dihlan Sheikh al-Islam, the Mufti of Masjid al-Haram (the greatest mosque in the world), about Muhammad ibn Abdul Wahhab, in the book of Alderar Al Sunniah Fi Alrad ala Al Wahhabiah says that he considered the Muslims before his age as "infidels" and made Muslims confess their infidelity before converting to Wahhabism.

He explains about it:

إذا أراد أحد أن يتبعهم على دينهم طوعا أو كرها، يأمرونه بالإتيان بالشهادتين أولا ثم يقولون له إشهد على نفسك إنك كنت كافرا و إشهد على والديك إنهما ماتا كافرين و إشهد على فلان و فلان إنه كان كافرا و يسمون له جماعة من أكابر العلماء الماضين، فإن شهدوا بذلك قبلوهم و إلا أمروا بقتلهم و كانوا يصرحون بتكفير الأمة من منذ ستمائة سنة.و اول من صرح بذلک محمد بن عبدالوهاب، فتبعوه في ذلک. و اذا دخل انسان في دينه و کان قد حجّ حجة الاسلام قبل ذلک يقولون له: حجّ ثانياً؛ فانّ حجتک الأولي فعلتها و انت مشرک فلاتسقط عنک الحجّ. ويسمون من اتبعهم من الخارج المهاجرين و من کان من اهل بلدهم يسمونهم الانصار

Anyone who wanted to convert to Muhammad ibn Abdul Wahhab's religion, was forced to confess that they have been infidels before, also confess that their parents have left the world being infidels and confess that such scholar and that scholar has died infidels. And he named many other great scholars who lived before, if the person confessed that they all were infidels he would then accept his confession otherwise he would kill them. They announced the entire Umma who lived 600 years before, "infidels". The first person introduced such innovation was Muhammad ibn Abdul Wahhab. The others, followed him and if anybody who accepted his religion had already done Haaj, they were ordered to redo their Haaj, as the previous one was done in the time of their infidelity (paganism) and so was not accepted! He called his followers Ansaar (supporters) if they were from his region, and if they were from other regions, called them Muhajirin (immigrants).

Then, the book reports about ignoring religious books by Muhammad ibn Abdul Wahhab and killing his criticizers:

The opinion of Sunni scholars on Wahhabism (part 2)

 Zaini Dihlan Sheikh al-Islam, the Mufti of Masjid al-Haram (the greatest mosque in the world), considers the existence of Wahhabism as a sedition appeared in the Islamic community, in the book of Kholasat al-Baian fi Baian Omara al-Balad al-Haram, he writes:




ابتداء فتنة الوهابية مع الرد عليهم بما يبطل ما ابتدعوه سنة 1205 وفي هذه السنة كان ابتداء الحرب والقتال بين مولانا الشريف غالب وطائفة الوهابية التابعين لمحمد ابن عبد الوهاب في عقيدته التي كفر بها المسلمين وينبغي قبل ذكر المحاربة والقتال ذكر ابتداء أمرهم وحقيقةحالهم فان فتنتهم من أعظم الفتن التي ظهرت في الاسلام

"The truth about Wahhabism', is that their conspiracy is the biggest sedition which has ever emerged in Islam."

The opinion of Sunni scholars on Wahhabism (part 1)

Zaini Dihlan, was the great Sheikh and Mufti of Mecca. In the book of "Fitna al-Wahhabia", he quoted the anticipation of the professors of Muhammad ibn Abdulwahhab about his deviation. And he was actually misled just as it had been anticipated. Zaini says:


وكان كثير من مشايخ ابن عبدالوهاب بالمدينة يقولون سيضل هذا أو يضل الله به من أبعده وأشقاه فكان الأمر كذلك


A significant number of the great scholars and professors of Muhammad ibn Abdulwahhab used to say, in the city of Medina: He is going to be astray or Allah will mislead him and he will mislead the people who are far from blesses of Allah and recalcitrant and the same thing happened.
