Is there a different approach for Sunnis and Shia’s?

No group actually calls itself Wahabis. However, people may call some of those who express certain views as Wahabis, which is a name supposed to refer to the followers of Imam Muhammad ibn Abdulwahhab who was a great reformer and scholar. He lived in Najd over 200 years ago and worked hard to eradicate all innovations from Islamic worship. Such innovations had crept into the practices of Muslim communities due to ignorance and long periods of decline undergone by Muslim communities. He maintained that the example of the Prophet i.e. the Sunnah should be followed diligently. There is no disagreement among scholars that this is required of every Muslim. It is unfortunate that some of the practices which Imam Muhammad ibn Abdulwahhab spoke very strongly against still persist in some Muslim communities. These include such terrible practices as visiting the graves of supposedly saintly people and asking the dead to intervene with Allah on behalf of the visitor for any purpose. Such a practice Islam shuns, since it is a manifestation of associating partners with Allah. Imam Muhammad ibn Abdulwahhab belonged to the Sunni Muslims who, by virtue of their name, should follow the Sunnah, or the example, set by Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) with diligence. Hence, it is wrong to classify Muslims as Wahabis and Sunnis, since the followers of Imam Abdulwahhab belong to the Sunni group of Muslims. The vigorous arguments and fighting you have spoken of are certainly deplorable. This happens, nevertheless, because people are sometimes too rigid in their views. Those who insist on following the Sunnah of the Prophet diligently should have the patience to teach their fellow Muslims, with respect and compassion, that some of their practices are unacceptable from the Muslim point of view. Had they done so, they would find better response by other Muslims.
Here is question for you: Should a person be alowed to add new things in islam on basis of good deed?

I personally do not believe anything unless it can be proved by Quran.
If it is not in Quran, then I like to find as many hadith as I can on the matter and make my own conclusion.
You can't make anything new in Islam which is not already in Quran or Hadith.. can you?
We cannot add anything. Its called Bidah and thats why all the extremists things added by Abdulwahab are Bidahs.
I agree with u cooldude.

NO CREATING NEW THINGS IN ISLAM IS BID'AH AND EVERY BID'AH IS GOING TO HELL.
WE SHOULD ALL FOLLOW QURAN AND ONLY QURAN AND SUNNAH OF MOHAMMAD(PBUH).
SOME PEOPLE HAVE CREATED NEW THINGS IN ISLAM DUE TO THEIR IGNORENT NATURE AND LOVE TO THEIR HINDU BROTHERS. WHEN ASKED WHY DO THEY DO THOSE, THEY SAY ITS A "NAIKK" KAAM. BUT WHEN SOMETHING THAT WAS NOT DONE BY MOHAMMAD(PBUH) AND THESE PEOPLE ADD IT INTO ISLAM. WHAT THEY ARE REALLY DOING IS DISRESPECTING ISLAM AND CORRUPTING IT.
MAY ALLAH OPEN THEIR HEARTS AND SHOW THEM THE TRUE AND RIGHT PATH OF QURAN AND SUNNAH.

Wahabies are you say follow only QURAN AND SUNNAH OF MOHAMMAD but you dont know you follow religion of your ancestors, and what hey added in islam and abdul wahab al he did was to stop you guys from doing all sort of shirkkana things, and you get mad when we say you are doing bid'ahss!!!

Nice post (one about AbdulWahab) Jaawan ..
Cool Dude if u really are searching for the truth then plz. read the Holy Quran .. if u still have difficulty then read the Tafseer (I have Molana Moudodis and it's very good).. hmm about Sunnahs .. I think the best 2 books are Sahih Bukhari and Sahih Muslim .. others like Trimzi etc are ok too.
U don't need to ask someone for answers for different things .. once u read the Quran (read slowly, and understand it) ur answers will be there ..
