Fyi.

Was waiting for a Zindīq Madkhali to try and deflect. It’s a non-profit, because it has other Kuffār from outside countries, on its board of directors. It’s still government funded, government founded cesspool of Kufr and Shirk. (See below from various government-linked Saudi outlets, the entity itself, and the UN counter terrorism center). Now the question remains, what’s the Hukm on a government who founds such an entity, funds it, is clearly okay with its mission, and actively promotes it? Don’t be shy.

If this is true, how come the Prophet ﷺ never killed a single person who apostated during his life? Not one

🚨ATTENTION MUSHRIKEEN: Where do you stand from the Ayāt of Allah🚨 🧵The Mushrikeen of Quraysh vs The Mushrikeen of Nowadays: What’s the Difference? [if any] 1) The Mushrikeen of Quraysh believed that Allah was the Creator of all things: And if you were to ask them: "Who has created the heavens and the earth and subjected the sun and the moon?" they will surely reply: "Allâh." How then are they deviating (as polytheists and disbelievers)? [29:61]

Wahhabis fundamentally misunderstand Islam. An individual enters into Islam with the shahada. The shahada has two parts. The first part affirms tawhid, indicating that there is only one true God. The second part affirms belief in Muhammad ﷺ as the Messenger of Allah. These two parts of the shahada are the two most basic components of faith (iman). However, Wahhabis act as if Islam exclusively centers on tawhid. For this reason, they literally claim that Muslims with flaws in their tawhid are comparable to, or worse than, pagan mushriks, Christians, and Jews. To the Wahhabi, all these groups are similar because they all have flaws in tawhid. But faith in Islam is not simply about tawhid. It is about affirming belief in the Muhammad ﷺ as Allah's Messenger. Muslims with flawed tawhid are still far better than pagan mushriks, Christians, and Jews. They still have so much more iman (faith) because of their belief in Muhammad ﷺ. And this is one reason to be very cautious in matters of takfir. Takfir is only justified when individuals lack iman. How can Wahhabis say that the Muslim who practices istighatha, and believes in Muhammad ﷺ has a type of iman comparable to (or worse than) the pagan mushrik idol-worshipper who rejects Muhammad ﷺ? In seeking to make Islam exclusively about tawhid, Wahhabis turn Islam into a type of abstract deism - and no doubt many contemporary Wahhabis are inclined to this, owing to the influence of Enlightenment modernism. The Wahhabi project to reduce Islam to tawhid, leads them to systematically downgrade and dismiss the importance of belief in the Prophet ﷺ, and the related attribute of love for the Prophet ﷺ. For whoever believes that Muhammad ﷺ is the Messenger of Allah will love him for guiding us to salvation. Muhammad ﷺ is the only one who teaches us how to earn the pleasure of Allah and enter paradise and avoid hell. Let the Wahhabi ponder on the following hadith from Sahih Bukhari. The Prophet (ﷺ) said "None of you will have faith till he loves me more than his father, his children and all mankind." The Wahhabi does not understand belief and love of the Prophet ﷺ and for this reason claims that Abu Jahl -- someone who disbelieved and hated the Prophet ﷺ -- is comparable in faith to a Muslim who practices istighatha. The Wahhabi should be brought to understand that the true Muslim is not an Enlightenment deist. Rather the true Muslim is the one who not only affirms the oneness of Allah, but also believes in the Prophet ﷺ and loves him.
