Re: Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahaab
did u blindfollowers not read this?? his own writings. judge him by his writings and not by those who make judgements without proof.
remember Allaah(swt) said
*O you who believe! If a rebellious evil person comes to you with a news, verify it, lest you harm people in ignorance, and afterwards you become regretful to what you have done. (Al-Hujurat 49:6) *
The Imaam, The Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhaab(rh) said
“as for the charges my enemies have accused me of: that I perform takfir merely by association or that I perform Takfr on an ignorant person who has not had the evidences presented to him, then verily this is a fabricated slander (mu’alafat al Shaykh 3/10)
that destroys your accusation that he started a "takfiri movement"!!
The Shaykh also wrote ***“as for the lies that are spread against us in order to cover the truth and to confuse people, that we consider all muslims to be disbelievers, the people of our times, and all the the peoples of the last six centuries, except those who follow us, and the lie based upon this lie, that we do not accept anyones allegiance until he testifies that he was a pagan before joinging us, and that both his parents were pagans(mushriks)(these lies can be seen in the book doctrine of Ahle sunnah wal jamma’ah vs the salafee movement p23-27)…then all of these salnders have absolutely no basis whatsoever. Everytime we heard something of these lies, we would reply “subhanak!! This is indeed a great slander and lie”. So whoever narrated this from me, will accuse me of these matters. Then he has indeed lied and slandered me. And whoever has witnessed my situation, and attended my gathereings, and verified what knowledge is with me, knows of a certainty that all of these charges have been fabricated against me by the enemies of the religion and the brothers of Shaytaan!” they only do this so as to repel people from submitting to Allaah alone with Tawheed and worship, by leaving all forms of shirk. Veriyl Allaah has clearly stated that he wil not forgive shirk, but will forgive anything less than that. So I firmly believe that whoever does any of the major sins, such as murdering another muslim without any reason, or fornicating, or taking interest, or drinking intoxicants, that such a person does not leave the fold of Islaam, nor will he be in the hell fire forever. As long as he died upon Tawheed.(al hadiyyah al Suniyyah p.40)*
that also destroys the same accusation!
also he stated “ as for ruling someone to be a kafir, then I consider a kafir to be the person who knows the religion of the prophet(saw), then, after such knowledge, curses it, and prevents people from following it, and shows enmity to whoever follows it. So this is the one whom I consider to be a kafir. And the majority of this ummah is not like this”( al durrar al saniyyah1/73)
and he also said “and if we do not pronounce takfir on those who worship idols that are present upon the graves of abd’ al qadir al jilanee and ahmad al badawa due to their ignorance and that they do not have the people to explain shirk to them then how can we consider kafir those who do not migrate with us nor fight with us to be Kafir?? Verily this is an evil slander!” (ibid)
HE said in a letter when he was asked who he calls to “and I am not one of those who calls to the belief of the Sufis nor the blind following of a faqih or one the philosophical groups, or even to the scholars that I respect myself such as ibn al qayyim, ibn katheer, al dahhabi and others, rather I call to Allaah(swt) alone, for he is one of having no partners and I call to the sunnah of the Prophet(saw). And this is what he (saw0 commanded the first and the last of nation. And I hope I do not reject any truth if it comes to me. Rather I call to Allaah(swt), his angel and the whole of creation to witness that if a word comes from you that is true, then of a surety I will accept it with all respect, and I will throw against the wall everything that goes against it, from the statements of the scholars that I respect, exept for the prophet(saw) for only he speaks nothing but the truth! (Majmu Mu'alafat 5/252)
Tums u r quite ignorant considering i gave u proof from his own writings that refutes yr arguement, u still went ahead and posted another basless accusation.
