There is no scope (possibility, range) for terrorism in Islam. In the Koran on many occasions it has been rebated (deduced) that true religion can be represented through intelligence and adducing (citing) cogent (powerful) reasons or detailing out convincing reason. In fact, the Koran has directed mankind to listen to everybody, and accept only what is logically appealing, sound and good.
But terrorism ushered (announced) in, was introduced by Abdul Wahab and was added in the Islamic period. In the system that Abdul Wahab added to Islam there is no scope for discussion or face-to-face (in front) debate the points and giving sound reasons, which may appeal to the human mind. But all the beliefs that Abdul Wahab practiced and presented in Islam have no firm grounds on which he could plead all these facts.
Moreover, neither he bothered (annoyed) to present these texts by means of Koranic references or Traditions of the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him and his progeny) and nor he based these dogmas, beliefs on reasons so sound and good.
Hence terrifying beliefs fostered (adopted) by Abdul Wahab doesn't appeal to or be accepted by the sane and wise people.
In order to propagate his ill-based dogmas, he forced people on the dint (by force, means) of sword and used all illegitimate (unlawful) means to kill them ruthlessly (mercilessly) and bring them to his fold. As Jameel Siddqi Sahawi has written in his book named ‘Al-Fajaray Sadiq’ that in 1217 Hijri when the Wahabis (Taliban) led an attack on Taif and threatened people to accept their gospels, their beliefs, otherwise, they would be put to sword, killed. In that attack these Wahabis did not take mercy even upon the small kids who were breast fed (suckled their mothers) and a number of people were butchered without any rhyme or reason (sense, logic).
This was the very first step that the Wahabis took in order to lay the foundation stone of terrorism in Islam. In this way the book named Hunwana Mahjad Fe Tahriqeh Nahjad Ibne Bashar the writer says that the Wahabis led an attack on Najaf in 1220 Hijri and there also they created havoc (destruction) and murdered a lot of innocent people.
Further, Salauddin, who himself is a Wahabi, in his book ‘History of Saudi Arabia’ (Tareeq Mumlaqat-e-Arabia Saudia), writes in 1216 Hijri in the month of Zeeqad the Wahabis led an attack on Karbala where they looted and plundered the people.
From the above historical references we can by joint conclusion say surely and safely that the foundation stone of Terrorism was laid by Wahabis. For the reason, they are first to start Terrorism in the World.
The Wahabis very strongly and sternly believe that those who are not like them in faith, or do not have the similitude (similarity) of the view with them they must be put to sword, they must be murdered.
They not only think the non-Muslims should be put to sword but also Muslims of certain sects must be killed because their beliefs do not match with the Wahabis’ ideas. Therefore, they kill them accordingly.
In the Wahabis belief there are many things, which are anti reason and are not to be accepted by proper human senses. According to their gospel there is no scope for mercy or to give pardon to the people. According to their belief the infliction of torture especially on womenfolk is their basic principle. For example, if a small child of a Wahabis' wife dies, then the Wahabi, on such a sad occasion do not allow women to shed tears on demise of the kith and kin. The mother whose apple of an eye is dead and is going to be buried, she is very, very terror stricken and grief stricken. However, she is not allowed to shed a tear. Not only this, but it has also been noticed that the deprived mother is not permitted (allowed) to go to the grave of the departed soul. Although it is the high time to give her or console her on the death of her beloved son or daughter, but she is not treated that way. She is neither allowed to shed tear nor is she permitted to go to the grave of her son or daughter.
On the other hand, other sects of Muslim do permit and do allow going to the graves, there is no restriction on weeping on the death of loved ones or on visiting the graves. But it is only the Wahabis, who are totally against it. They simply permit neither the weeping nor the lamentation (wailing), lawful mourning on the death of their near and dear. They do not permit their wives to go and visit the graves after the death of their relatives. Whereas, through the perusal of very famous books of traditions of the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him and his progeny), we come to the conclusion that the people are permitted rather they are urged to go and visit the graves. This implies that an interest is created in them for going to visit the graves so that they could understand the reality of life.
In the book Sunnan Ibne Mahja, one of the important and famous Hadees has been narrated from the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him and his progeny), according to that Tradition the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him and his progeny) said, ‘do go to the graves and go soon to the graves, because by doing this one remembers his/her own end of the life.
In another famous book of Traditions of the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him and his progeny), Kansal-e-Ammal, it has been said that the graves must be visited because you will learn and you become wonder struck by visiting the graveyard, keeping in view that one day this will be the same end for you.
In order to prove their ill-based belief the Wahabis bring forth ill founded, two or three traditions from the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him and his progeny) and they ascribe them to the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him and his progeny). These traditions are ill based, false, void of veracity (truthfulness) and there is no iota (speck) of truth in them.
The Traditions attributed to the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him and his progeny), which can be safely refuted (rejected), safely disregarded, are definitely anti Quranic version and anti human intelligence. Truly, we can very rightly say that all these Traditions are self-concocted (made by themselves) , self fabricated, self-styled and self-made by Wahabis because they just do not accept the real Traditions from the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him and his progeny) and try to refute the truthful Traditions of the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him and his progeny). There are fifty or more Sayings, which are invariably (constant) rejected and disregarded. When they get too weak and ill-based and ill-founded Traditions they accept them because there is no provision for debate or discussion in their sect.
Even today in Saudi, which is the epic (main) point of Wahabiat or focal (centre) point of Wahabiat? They do not allow publication of any original works except to their own dogmas or own set of dogmas pertaining to Wahabiat.
In Sahih Muslim, a very important and renowned (famous) book, there is one very important Tradition of the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him and his progeny), in which it is very vividly mentioned that women folk are permitted to go to the cemetery or graveyard. The Prophet of God (peace be upon him and his progeny) said that one day Angel Gabriel came to him and conveyed him the Commands of God that he should go and visit the people buried at Baqi (Graveyard in Madina) and asked him to pray for their forgiveness. He (the Prophet of God (peace be upon him and his progeny) immediately rose from his bed and went to Baqi. Meanwhile Hazrat Aisha, spouse (wife) of the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him and his progeny), also followed him quietly. Hazrat Aisha enquired of the Prophet of God (peace be upon him and his progeny) “how shall I go and visit the people buried in Baqi?” The Holy Prophet (peace be upon him and his progeny) replied, “Say oh! God be merciful and shower your mercy over those who have been buried in this belt of the earth and furthermore ask for mercy for those who shall be coming to Baqi.”
Now by this Holy tradition it is very clearly proved that going of the womenfolk into the graveyard is not only justified but also has been permitted by the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him and his progeny). Had it not been tenable (permissible) for womenfolk to enter the graveyard, then the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him and his progeny) would forbade (refused) Hazrat Aisha to accompany him.
Another very famous Tradition of the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him and his progeny), which is available in the book Musddarak, that the daughter of the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him and his progeny), Fatima-tu-Zehra (peace be upon her) after the Martyrdom of Hazrat Hamza (peace be upon him), used to visit the grave of Hazrat Hamza(peace be upon him); and would mourn over the sad demise of the uncle of her father the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him and his progeny). She also offered prayers over his grave (two rakats (units) of prayers). Had it not been permissible for womenfolk to go to the graveyard, then Hazrat Fatima (peace be upon her) would not have gone to the cemetery or graveyard; and would never had mourned there; and would not have prayed there; and would not have read Surah Fateha (The Opening-name of a chapter of the Quran) over the grave of Hazrat Hamza (peace be upon him). All the narrators of this tradition of the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him and his progeny) are correct and of the standard of Sahih Bukhari.
