“Allah has 2 right hands with fingers on them, a face, 2 eyes, a shin, is sitting on a chair, with a foot resting on a chair for now but will be placed in Hellfire in the next life— we don’t know if He has a torso, nose, ears, or toes on his feet, has an image, a size (L•W•H), a limit, a shape to his face, is limited by time, changes, has emotions, is made of parts as long as those parts are inseparable, is leaning forward in his chair to ‘descend’ to the first heaven every night, laughs (😂), gets astonished (😯) at His creation, needs letters and a voice in order to speak, 🗣️ 🗣️ 🗣️”
But then: “in a way that befits His majesty.”
In other words, “I believe in a confusingly deficient looking and sounding man-god but it’s okay cause I said ‘in a way that befits His majesty’ at the end!”
And then the same people expect Christians to stop believing in their perfect man-god, for this deficient man-god.
All the while they’ll bark “YOU’RE the anthropomorphist because YOU imagined it first!”
Foolish. If you aren’t supposed to do tasawwur of a word when it’s spoken then what the heck are you supposed to do to understand it, and why the heck was it spoken?
So we leave it to these people:
If, to you:
“Hand” doesn’t actually refer to any hand that we have seen,
“Face” doesn’t actually refer to any face that we have seen,
“Shin” doesn’t actually refer to any shin that we have seen,
“Laughs” doesn’t actually refer to 😂 that we have seen,
“Sits” doesn’t actually refer to any sitting that we have seen,
“Eyes” doesn’t actually refer to any eyes that we have seen,
“Foot” doesn’t actually refer to any foot that we have seen,
“Fingers” doesn’t actually refer to any finger that we have seen,
“Astonishment” doesn’t actually refer to 😯 that we have seen,
“Descending” doesn’t actually refer to any descent that we have seen,
……
Then WHAT ON EARTH do ALL those words mean?
You will NEVER receive an answer that actually makes you understand the meaning of those, but that is not direct tajseem and tashbeeh.
By Allah the companions and messenger ﷺ are FREE of this stupidity.
Yet people who know the Bible better than their own Quran will openly claim otherwise.
Just a little longer before this deviance is on downfall inshaAllah.

It seems the UAE leader, MBZ, whom people like Faris call the “shadow of God”, was more concerned about Israel’s security than Netanyahu. But Akhi, please don't criticise the rulers. Please email them privately. 😐
والله المستعان
It’s not Sunni Supremacy. They takfir non-Wahabis & make their blood halal.
Dr Rahmah is for example promoting Abdul Wahhab, who did takfir of Sunni Ottomans to join the Zionists & overthrow the Ottomans.
Thats what’s she advocating for with Jolani.
It’s Arab Supremacy.
Syrian nationalist Goylani supporters insist that Bashar al-Assad is a kafir.
Here is Saudi Arabia's highest religious authority al-Fawzan (Wahhabi) explicitly refusing to takfir Assad and urging the Muslim masses to refrain from takfiring him as well.
I'm not citing this to say Fawzan is right. But it shows how Wahhabis and Syrian nationalists inconsistently use takfir as a political weapon.
The Syrian nationalists who takfir Assad "because he was secular" refuse to takfir, for example, MBZ, who is even more secular. Why? Is it because UAE is backing Goylani?
Muhammad ibn Abd al-Wahhab takfired the entire Ottoman empire, called Ottoman Muslims "mushriks" worse than the Quraysh, and launched "jihads" against them, where he killed them in their mosques, homes, and marketplaces.
For this reason, Ibn Abd al-Wahhab was condemned as a Khariiji-like heretic by all the scholars of his era (e.g., Ibn Afaliq, Ibn Abidin, al-Sawi, the Ottoman Shaykh al-Islam) .
In fact, no one considered his followers mainstream Sunni Muslims until the early 20th century, when the Saudi state of Najd annexed the Hijaz and forced Wahhabi scholars to tone down their teachings on takfir.
It is this reason why Wahhabism has a bad name.
Admittedly the term "Wahhabism" does have a connection with Allah and the Quran. But so do the terms "Hezbollah", "al-Ikhwan al-Muslimin", "Ayatullah", and "Islamic State (ISIS)". Yet few Muslims, particularly the followers of Ibn Abd al-Wahhab, hold that such names cannot be used as insults. Indeed, Ibn Abd al-Wahhab's followers regularly insult groups associated with these names.
Admittedly, some Muslims use the term Wahhabism as an insult for those who defend proper tawhid. But most Muslims do not. Rather they insult Wahhabis for holding heretical and/or inconsistent views on a variety of issues.
Hence, Wahhabis are criticized for
- mass takfiring and killing other Muslims
-allying with non-Muslims to kill other Muslims after mass takfiring them (e.g., allying with the British against the Ottomans in WWI and allying with the US against Iraq).
-defending the stance of Ibn Taymiyya that it is acceptable to believe that hell is not eternal
-defending the view of Ibn Taymiyya that the world has existed alongside Allah for eternity
-defending the view of Ibn Taymiyya that it is permissible to call on jinns for protection and aid
-defending the view of Ibn Taymiyya that the Prophet ﷺ was temporarily tricked by Satan into preaching shirk (qissa al-gharaniq)
To be sure, Ibn Taymiyya is a great and respectable scholar. But the problem with Wahhabis is that they often assume his infallibility, and do not give sufficient respect to other great Sunni scholars like al-Tabari, al-Ghazali, and al-Nawawi. Indeed, Wahhabis demand tolerance or acceptance of Ibn Taymiyya's problematic views, while exhibiting zero tolerance for the views of other scholars, which reflects a type of chauvinism.
Contrary to what is claimed by Ibn Abd al-Wahhab's followers, many Muslims who never practice tawassul, istiighatha, or mawlid (like myself) oppose Wahhabis over their many other deviations, which sometimes rise to the level of kufr and merit strong criticism.
As for the term "Salafi", it was not used by the Salaf themselves or medieval Sunnis to denote the notion of following the Salaf. All Sunni groups have always believed in following the Salaf, so they did not need the label "Salafi" to mark themselves as holders of this position. This is why they all followed madhhabs established by members of the Salaf (Abu Hanifa, Malik, Shafii, Ibn Hanbal). At most, sometimes the term Salaf was used to denote the aqida of the Hanbalis/Ahl al-Hadith as opposed to that of other groups like Asharites and Maturidites.
The notion of "Salafi" as meaning following the Salaf was created in the early twentieth century by the modernist reformers Abduh and Rashid Rida, before being picked up by al-Albani and other scholars in Saudi Arabia in the middle of the twentieth century. They then started calling themselves "Salafi", as opposed to earlier terms like "followers of the Najdi/Wahhabi dawah".
Use of the term Salafi raises certain concerns. Those who use it today do not know its history. Moreover, the followers of Ibn Abd al-Wahhab use the term to falsely claim that, opposed to other Sunnis, only they follow the Salaf. This is a misrepresentation of Sunni views, and distorts Sunni history.
Beyond this, due to the influence of Abduh and Rida, contemporary "Salafis" regularly mock the beliefs and practices found among the actual Salaf, such as the notion that there continue to be a class of miracle working saints in all eras, that there exists forces of baraka, and that knowledge of the supernatural does not only come from scripture but also from direct interactions with supernatural forces (e.g., in dreams, waking visions, jinn possession incidents). And this is not even to mention the practice of tawassul which was endorsed by some major figures from the Salaf like Ibn Hanbal. "Salafis" make the bizarre claim that the actual beliefs and practices of the Salaf are later "Sufi" accretions which have nothing to do with Islam. In reality, Abduh and Rida rejected these beliefs and practices as non-scientific superstitions (khurafat), because they were modernizing reformists, and then their ideas were picked up by later "Salafis".
This is not to say that all Salafis are bad. In fact on the whole, many Salafis are quite good. These are the Salafis who are heavily influenced by Ibn Hanbal and Ibn Taymiyya (who never claimed to be infallible). But as for the "Salafis' who follow Ibn Abd al-Wahhab and Rida and Fawzan, then their views merit criticism.
@doctor_rahmeh Wahhabis literally murder Sunnis who disagree with them and blow up their mosques like they did to Sheikh Bouti.
Daniel @Haqiqatjou will tell you that a Wahhabi is not a Sunni.
الفكر السلفي قائم على عداوة الآخر، ولا يؤمن أتباعه بالعيش المشترك دون همز ولمز لغيرهم، ويعتقدون اعتقادا جازما أن كل من يخالف فكرهم الإقصائي فهو ضال مبتدع، غير موحِّد، وحلال الدم، ولا تجوز حتى الابتسامة في وجهه ولا عيادته في مرضه.
وتجد غالبية أتباع هذا الفكر من عامة النابتة والرعاع والأغمار الجهلة، الذين تم تصيدهم بسبب جهلهم وسذاجتهم بعبارات منمقة وجذابة حول دعوى اتباع سنة النبي محمد ﷺ، وأن جميع المذاهب التي تخالفهم غير متبعة للسنة النبوية.
لذا تجد في مجمل كلامهم يرددون عبارة (دعوة التوحيد)، ويعتبرون التوحيد خاصا بهم، ومن خالف فكرهم فهو غير موحد.
هذا الفكر خطير جدا؛ ولا يتسرب إلى أرض إلا فتن أهلها، وجعلها أحزابا متناحرة لا ترضى بالعيش المشترك على أرض واحدة.
ومن الملاحظ أن السلفي الوهابي تجد لديه مشاكل وخصومات وعداوات مع كل مذهب يعيش بجانبه، حتى مع المذاهب الأكثر سلمية على وجه الأرض.
فالسلفي يخاصم الأشاعرة والماتريدية والصوفية، وهم عموم أهل السنة من الشافعية والمالكية والحنفية في كل بقعة.
ويخاصم الشيعة في كل شبر من الأرض.
حتى الإباضية لم يسلموا من خصامهم وهمزهم ولمزهم!
بل حتى بينهم أنفسهم تجد التكفير والتبديع والتضليل حاضرا؛ فهذا جامي، وذاك سروري، وتلك مدخلية، وذاك حدادي!
فعلى كل دولة تريد أن تعيش في وحدة ووئام، عليها تصحيح عقلية أتباع هذا الفكر العدائي غير المتصالح مع سائر الجنس البشري من المسلمين، وتقويض منابع ومحفزات انتشاره بين الرعاع والجهلة من الأعراب.
SNEAKO calls for PAN-ISLAMIC UNITY and claims “Wahhabism is just another word for Zionism,” arguing that UNITY between Shia and Sunni Muslims would make Muslims much stronger 😳☪️
“Wahhabi is just another word for Zionism. WE MUST HAVE UNITY.”
Il faut que les Saoudiens Wahabites et ceux qui les suivent se mettent dans la tête une bonne fois pour toute que :
- On va continuer à faire le Mawlid
- On va continuer à dire "Notre Bien-Aimé" pour notre Prophète
- On va continuer à réciter des poèmes sur Notre Bien-Aimé Prophète
- On va continuer à faire du dhikr en groupe
- On va continuer à faire l'imsak pendant le Ramadan
- On va continuer à utiliser le chapelet
- On va continuer à dire "Jumu'a Mubarak" le Vendredi
- On va continuer à propager le Soufisme Orthodoxe
- On va continuer à propager le dogme Ash'ari
- Et surtout que les Wahabites-Salafistes vous n'êtes qu'une petite minorité bruyante ; Les Sunnites sont majoritaires
Bref, nous on va mawlider ça fort bien comme il faut, et on vous invite fraternellement à venir célébrer avec nous ! (on vous gardera une part de gateau)
Allahumma Salli 'ala Sayyidina Muhammadin wa 'ala Alihi wa Sahbihi wa Sallim 💚
ISIS is a Wahhabi group, and most Wahhabis are ignorant, young, and/or mentally-ill people.
These Wahhabis are manipulated by intelligence agencies to advance the geopolitical goals of Israel and the US.
Here a Wahhabi was manipulated into a senseless terror plot by the FBI.
This plot is being used to boost anti-Muslim sentiment in the US, and thereby help the US government continue its war in Iran, and its support for Israeli genocide in Palestine and Lebanon.
@T00_0pinionated What a pure lie, nobody before the khariji ibn abdul wahhab said that its shirk. Im wondering are these people genuinely ignorant or do they just knowingly lie to the masses
