Al-Wahab

Re: Al-Wahab

Brother … nice objection on calling someone ‘Wahabis’ … just because Al-Wahab is one of the attributes of Allah.

Anyhow, will you say the same about calling someone ‘Alawites’?

As Ali (‘Al-Ali’) is one of the attributes of Allah just like Wahab (‘Al-Wahab’)

Fact is that:

When one call a group or a person part of that group ‘Alawites’ we do not mean (have no intention) that we are calling someone as follower of ‘Al-Ali’ (one of the attributes of Allah) …

When one call a group or a person part of that group ‘Wahabis’ we do not mean (have no intention) that we are calling someone as follower of ‘Al-Wahab’ (one of the attributes of Allah) …

Hence calling someone Alawites (a group claiming to be Muslim, we find them mostly in Syria) is fine and calling someone Wahabis (a group claiming to be Muslim, we find them mostly in Saudi-Arabia but many in rest of world too) is fine.
