Ibn Qudāmah al-Maqdīsī رحمه الله stated:

From the Sunnah is; Loyalty to the Sahābah, love for them, mentioning their good qualities, and asking Allāh to grant them mercy and to forgive them. And [also] refraining from mentioning their bad qualities and what they differed in,
believing in their virtues and acknowledging their superiority.

ومن السنة تولّي أصحاب رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم ومحبتهم، وذكر محاسنهم، وترحم عليهم، والاستغفار لهم، والكف عن ذكر مساوئهم، وما شجر بينهم، واعتقاد فضلهم، ومعرفة سابقتهم.

لمعة الاعتقاد الهادي إلى سبيل الرشاد
It is permissible to attack the kuffār at night, to use a catapult against them, and to start fighting with them before calling them to Islām. This is because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) took Banī al-Mustaliq by suprise
while they were unsuspecting, when their cattle were being taken to the bodies of water for drinking; he killed their fighters and took their offspring into captivity.

ويجوز تبييت الكفار ورميهم بالمنجنيق، وقتالهم قبل دعائهم، لأن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم أغار على بني المصطلق،
وهم غارون، وأنعامهم تسقى على الماء، فقتل مقاتلهم، وسبى ذراريهم.

In the mid 18th century, Ibn Abdul Wahab’s forces depopulated towns, destroyed hamlets, killed scholars and executed men/women. They made mass takfir on towns like Huraimila where his brother, Suleiman, was chief Qadi. Numerous assassination attempts were made on Suleiman’s life.
“Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab and his followers are people of innovation because they contradict all of that which has been handed down.”

~ Hanbali Scholar & Judge, Muhammad Ibn Fairuz [d. 1801] responding to Wahhabi da’wah just prior to the movement’s bloody invasion of Mecca.
Hanbali Imam Isa Al-Qaddumi (c.1774) was instrumental in preaching against the Wahabbi movement, delivering letters to and from ulema, warning about their impending plight. This Imam, like others, classified the Wahabbi movement as Khawarij.

Scholastically speaking, Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab was as qualified to speak on matters of religion as a post-millennial YouTuber.
This seems like a joke but it is not.

Hanbalis have a 7 tier hierarchy of scholarly rank ranging from Absolute Mujtahid (the four Imams), down to Muslim laity (YouTubers, Ibn Abdul Wahhab and myself).
Ibn Abdul Wahhab is never mentioned amongst the in-house ’tabaqat’ biographies of Hanbali scholars, which have been recorded since Imam Ahmad, as he was never inducted into the scholarly chain of transmission. His brother, Sulaiman, who condemned him, is.

Ulema of Ibn Abdul Wahhab's day were clear:

"There has appeared in our land a man who is an innovator, ignorant, astray and leading others astray... causing the disruption of knowledge, and cutting off piety from people's hearts."

~ Najdi Qadi, Sulaiman ibn Suhaim [d. 1773]
"Whoever does not agree with him [Ibn Adul Wahhab], then he judges them with having committed major kufr... So in reality he is calling to the Tawhid of himself rather than to the Tawhid of Allah."

~ Najdi Qadi, Sulaiman ibn Suhaim [d. 1773] (Scholar at time of ibn Abdul Wahhab)
"Who did he [Ibn Abdul Wahhab] get this information from? Was it revelation? Did he see it in a dream? Or did Shaytan teach it to him?... we need to have the matter explained before his false thoughts come into the souls of people."

~ Najdi Qadi, Sulaiman ibn Suhaim [d. 1773]
