Sulayman ibn `Abd al-Wahhab (brother of Muhammad ibn `Abd al-Wahhab)

[Mujib]

From Sulayman ibn `Abd al-Wahhab:

It is in the context of his losing battle against his brother that Sulayman wrote his famous book against the Wahhhabi sect titled:

_Fasl al-Khitab min Kitab Allah wa-Hadith al-Rasul (salla Allahu `alayhi wa-Sallam) wa-Kalam Uli al-Albab fi Madhhab Ibn `Abd al-Wahhab_ ("The Final Word from the Qur'an, the Hadith, and the Sayings of the Scholars Concerning the School of Ibn `Abd al-Wahhab"),

also known as:

_al-Sawa`iq al-Ilahiyya fi Madhhab al-Wahhabiyya_ ("The Divine Thunderbolts Concerning the Wahhabi School").

This book is among the first and earliest refutations of the Wahhabi sect in print, consisting in over forty-five concise chapters spanning 120 pages that aim to show the divergence of the Wahhabi school, not only from the Consensus and usûl of Ahl al-Sunna wal-Jama`a and the fiqh of the Hanbali Madhhab, but also from their putative Imams, Ibn Taymiyya and Ibn al-Qayyim on most or all the issues reviewed.

Scholars have differences of opinion, they oppose one another and they refute one another.

This is how it is. Some scholars have even refuted their own earlier works. Like Abul Hassan Al Ash'ari did in his book al Ibadah.

Imam Abu Hasan al-Ash`ari (ra) has no work called "al Ibadah." As for al-Ibana, according to the `ulama, the text that has reached us is a corrupted version.

I misspelled it.

Why is it that the book that refutes Ash'ari falsehood is corrupted? Why not any other book?
