Re: Wahbies getting mercked !
TLK,
Yes. I do know what you are referring to. Technically, the term Wahhabi itself is dubious. Salafis existed as Salafis until 1800s. Then Saudi followers of Wahhab who were Salafis but because of Saudi state ties they are known as Wahhabis. But today, other than the majority of Saudi Muslims and those who attend their official sponsored masjids, who are the Salafis left in the world? Even the tiny AhleHadees community in Pakistan is heavily Saudi influenced. Bottomline, everyday Muslims identify Wahhabis and Salafi interchangeably and know generally what people it refers to.
My point is that Deobandis, Barelvis etc. got along fine before Saudi money started spreading their intolerance to Muslims across the world. They exported their hate and now it has spread like a disease.
PS: MaMooli, Talibans are Deobandis not Wahhabis - quite different but similar ideological goals.
