Wahhabisme

Wahhabisme of Wahabisme (Arabies: الوهابية, al-Wahhābiya(h)) is ’n Islamitiese beweging wat deur Mohammad ibn Abd al-Wahhab gestig is. Dit is al beskryf as "ultrakonserwatief",[1] "streng",[2] "fundamentalisties",[3] of "puriteins";[4][5] as ’n Islamitiese "hervormingsbeweging" om "suiwer monoteïstiese aanbidding" (tawhid) te herstel" deur aanhangers;[6] en as ’n "afwykende sektariese beweging",[6] "skandelike sekte"[7] en verdraaiing van Islam deur teenstanders.[2][8]

Aanhangers van Wahhabisme verwerp gewoonlik die term en verkies om Salafi of muwahhid genoem te word;[9][10][11] volgens hulle lê dit klem op die beginsel van tawhid[12] (die "uniekheid" en "eenheid" van God)[13] of monoteïsme. Hulle beskuldig dikwels ander Moslems daarvan dat hulle sjirk (afgodsdiens) beoefen.[14]

Wahhabisme volg die teologie van die Hanbali-skool van regswetenskap, hoewel Hanbalileiers Ibn Abd al-Wahhab se sienings verwerp.[5]

The majority of mainstream Sunni and Shia Muslims worldwide would strongly disagree with the interpretation of Wahhabism outlined above. Rather than see Wahhabism as a reform movement, many Muslims would reject it in the strongest terms as firqa, a new faction, a vile sect.

While Wahhabism claims to represent Islam in its purest form, other Muslims consider it a misguided creed that fosters intolerance, promotes simplistic theology, and restricts Islam's capacity for adaption to diverse and shifting circumstances.

Wahhabism has become [...] a blanket term for any Islamic movement that has an apparent tendency toward misogyny, militantism, extremism, or strict and literal interpretation of the Quran and hadith

Thus, the mission's devotees contend that 'Wahhabism' is a misnomer for their efforts to revive correct Islamic belief and practice. Instead of the Wahhabi label, they prefer either Salafi, one who follows the ways of the first Muslim ancestors (salaf), or muwahhid, one who professes God's unity.
