Imran N. Hosein

Anak murid Maulana Fadhlur Rahman al-Ansari murid Maulana Abdul 'Aleem Siddique juga menulis sebuah buku yang agak keras terhadap Wahhabi berdasarkan kepada fakta sejarah. Dia menceritakan dalam " The Caliphate - The Hejaz and The Saudi-Wahhabi Nation - State" peranan Wahhabi dalam melenyapkan Khilafah Islamiyyah yang sehingga kini hilang. Antara yang kata beliau dalam muqaddimah buku tersebut (mukasurat 3):-

• If this ummah is ever to succeed in restoring the supremacy of Islam over the State in the world of Islam, it is imperative that Muslims be taught the history of the collapse of the Caliphate and its replacement, in the heart of Islam, by the secular Saudi-Wahhabi Nation-State. This was an act of supreme betrayal of Islam.

Pada mukasurat 20 - 24:-

• Al-Azhar University proposed to convene an International Islamic Caliphate (Mu'tamar al-Khilafah) in Cairo which would, among other things, attempt to appoint a new Caliph over the world of Islam. Had the Wahhabis been genuinely devoted to Islam they would have welcomed this Al-Azhar effort to achieve conformity with an essential requirement of the shari`ah, i.e. the establishment of a genuine Caliphate. The Wahhabis had long argued that the post-Rashidoon Caliphate was invalid because, among other things; the Caliphate was not constituted in a manner which conformed with the requirements of the shari`ah. Now that the invalid Caliphate had been abolished and the leading center of Islamic learning was convening an international Islamic congress to discuss the question of the Caliphate, and to effect the appointment of a new Caliph, the Wahhabis should have welcomed this initiative. In addition, they should alsohave extended every possible cooperation, and should have participated in a serious way in the Congress in order to ensure that the genuine Caliphate was restored.
• But Wahhabis had no such sincere devotion to Islam. Their attitude was essentially one of selective religiosity, expediency, oppurtunism and parochialism. The Wahhabis knew that the world of Islam would never have accepted a Wahhabi Caliph and, as a consequence, they found it expedient to repudiate an essemtial requirement of the Islamic Public Order. They marshaled all their energies to sabotage the Cairo Caliphate Congress. Their strategy was to organize a rival congress in Makkah at the time of Hajj of 1926. That meant that the Makkah Congress would take place within a month of Cairo Congress, making it difficult for delegates to attend both conferences. Since Makkah Conference was timed to coincide with the Hajj, and since it had the active support of the British, it had a clear advantage over the Cairo Conference.
• Secondly they specifically excluded from the agenda of Makkah Congress the question of the Caliphate. This transparent attempt to sabotage the Cairo Conference and to bury the Caliphate was more than ample evidence to expose the hollow credentials of the Wahhabis as so-called champions of the shari`ah and of Islam.

Itulah antara kandungan buku tersebut. Jadi antara bid`ah paling besar sekarang ini ialah penubuhan Kerajaaan Saudi-Wahhabi. Wahhabi memang makhluk pelik, masjid-masjid, ribath dan zawiyah yang ada di Jabal Abi Qubais habis dihancurkannya kerana bid`ah, khurafat dan syirik. Atas puing-puing masjid, ribath dan zawiyah tersebut dibina oleh mereka istana indah raja mereka. Itu tak kira bid`ahkah ? Aku teringat waktu Raja Fahd mati dan di kubur yang tak bertanda. Ada yang kagum kata zuhud dan sebagainya. Zuhud lepas mati buat apa, nak zuhud waktu hidup ni lah. Itu zuhud kepala anak Pak Wahhab. Maaflah kalau melalut, bukan marah, geram sikit.

Elok jugak ikhwah cari dan baca. Sebenarnya banyak fakta sejarah yang disembunyikan oleh mereka dan penjajah British dari pengetahuan kita sehingga kita tak kenal siapa hero dan siapa musuh.

Allahummahdi qawmi fa innahum la ya'lamun.
