Imam Ash Shawkani's praise for Shaykh Al Mujaddid Muhammed Ibn Abdul Wahab RA.
"A person from Najd has two light volumes which he sent to our respected leader, the Imaam (may Allaah preserve him). One of them contained the treatises of Muhammad bin Abd al-Wahhaab, all of them
"A person from Najd has two light volumes which he sent to our respected leader, the Imaam (may Allaah preserve him). One of them contained the treatises of Muhammad bin Abd al-Wahhaab, all of them
were about directing to sincerity in Tawhid and warning from Shirk which is practised by those believing in the graves. And these are beneficial treatises, filled with evidences from the Book and the Sunnah. And the other volume comprised a refutation of a group of negligent
ones from the jurists of San'aa and Sa'dah, they corresponded on some issues with him (Muhammad bin Abd al-Wahhaab) connected to the foundations of the religion (aqidah) and a group from the Companions, so he responded to them with detailed, corroborating, verified responses
indicating that the one responding is from the bona fide Scholars, knowledgeable of the Book and the Sunnah, and he destroyed everything they constructed (in argument) and invalidate everything they compiled, because they are negligent, biased partisans, and thus what they did
became a humiliation for them and upon the people of San'aa and Sa'dah."
