Abstract

This term is found in their earlier sources. 2. See e.g Sulaymn ibn 'Abdi'l-Wahhb's critique of his brother's teachings, al-aW'Iq al-IlhIyyah f al-radd 'al al-WahhbIyyah. 3. From this point forward, the word "superstitious" will appearing quotations, for Wahhabis and their sympathizers classify these acts as such. I will demonstrate that these acts are ultimately justifiable by means of Islamic sources, both primary (Prophetic narrations and/or verses of the Qur'an) and secondary (the opinions of the imams of the four schools of Sunni fiqh). Thus, in the view of a majority of Islamic scholars, these acts would be no more "superstitious" than any other Islamic rite.
