How can you say this about Imam Muhammad ibn Abdul-Wahhab (rahimahullah)?! He was the Reviver of the Deen in his century, the Mujahid who fought against the enemies of Tawheed. We cannot and should not judge him based on the actions of the Salool family.
It is not true the Shaykh "went against a Khalifa". The Ottomans had no real authority in the Peninsula. Also, Shirk was very widespread among the Ottomans, as were deviations and perversions of all sorts, and they had ceased to rule entirely by Shari'ah.
Asalam Aleikoum Wr Wb,
Actuallay akhi the politicly correct way of saying this by the Taqleedi Salafis is 'he was used and misinformed by the British". But in fact his support of the ibn Saud family and his grandchildren's stances all seem to being supporting the saud family. The Hijaz was ruled by Hanafi fiq and just the oposite the books written in that time were written by men not that had the Sharia behind them. Had the Saudi allie the USA attacked ANY land under the Othmaniyeen the khalifa would protect that land, we see the opposite with the Saud family and all the feces that have stolen our lands today.
In any case, the Caliph should be Quraishi
majority opinion, there is a minority opinion that does not see it this way.
and it is permissible to go out against the Khalifah if he commits Kufr al-Akbar. The Shaykh and the Imam during his time most certainly did rule by Shari'ah - and your beloved Ottomans crushed them when their pure Islamic Da'wah threatened the influence of their deviance.
You mean my beloved Muslims,also I would like to address the way perhaps the women that the 'Shaikh' and the "Imam' treated the women of the Khalifa and the Sufis. I am doing some research on this now so as of yet I can not post it. Inshallah soon.
No one ever claimed the abovementioned four were "infallible". And how can anyone have this hostility against Shaykh al-Islam Muhammad ibn Abdul-Wahhab (rahimahullah)? Just because the Salool family and Madkhaliah claim to follow him does not mean he would have approved of them. Quite the contrary!
Akhi, just look at Tibyan's and other 'Mainstream Salafis' unequivocal support for these people. I read and take much from Tibyan and to a lesser degree from the big 4. Islam existed b4 these people and will exist after them. I am not here to blast them, but I am sure as hell not going to promote them. I will not accept any position that I feel contradicts Allah's perfect law. Call me a Renegade,Takferi,Jewish Spy,Kharji call me anything but just please never call me a supporter of The Tawgheet or their supporters, because this is truly the greatest slander.
In theory, yes. But no one expounded upon Tawheed better than Shaykh al-Islam Muhammad ibn Abdul-Wahhab (rahimahullah). There are few books that can compare to Kitab at-Tawheed, Thalatah Usool, or Masaa'il Jahiliyyah.
