There was an Indian man who used to harbour extreme hatred towards Imam Muhammad Ibn Abdil Wahhab, may Allah have mercy upon him, due to the false claims of Ahlul Bidah, so he always reviled the Imam. Then one day, a sincere adviser wished to clarify to this person that he is mistaken, so he invited him to his house and treated him kindly. He removed the cover from Kitab at-Tawhid and placed it where the guest [i.e. the Indian man] would be sitting because he was a scholar and loved reading books. When he went to get some food for the guest, he saw the book and started reading. He was amazed by the book because it contained nothing else but proofs.
When he returned [i.e. with the food], the guest asked him who the author of the book was and he was told that Shaikh Muhammad Ibn Abdil Wahhab is the author, thus, so he realised that he was one of those who reviled Shaikh Muhammad Ibn Abdil Wahhab based on false claims.
And among the most evil of these false claims is that Shaikh Muhammad Ibn Abdil Wahhab hates and reviles Ahlul Bayt [i.e. the Prophet’s family], but ask these people what the Kunya of Shaikh Muhammad Ibn Abdil Wahhab is! His Kunya is Abu Ali, even all the names of his children are the same as the names of Ahlul Bayt, except one of his children who is called Abdur Azeez. Therefore, is this a sign of love for Ahlul Bayt or a sign of hatred?! Would a person name his children after people he hates?! Rather, these names are well known even amongst the descendants of Shaikh Muhammad Ibn Abdil Wahhab.
Once I met a man in one of the Muslim lands and mentioned the name of Shaikh Muhammad Ibn Abdil Wahhab, he said, “Muhammad Ibn Abdil Wahhab reviles Ahlul Bayt in his books”. I said to the man, “Name a single book in which this revilement is found! If you stand in the presence of Allah on the Day of Judgement and you are questioned about this, would you have any proof to offer?! Show me a single statement in which Shaikh Muhammad Ibn Abdil Wahhab reviles Ahlul Bayt; rather I can bring you many of his statements in which he praised Ahlul Bayt”. This shows that many people are affected by the false claims of Ahlul Bidah – the people of desires and misguidance, because none will show hatred towards Kitab at-Tawhid, except a person of desires.
