Shaykh Al-Fawzan said. “Before we begin the actual book, we will speak about the author. So, the student of knowledge has an actual understanding of who the scholars are.” Today we covered: • Shaykh Mohammed ibn Abdul Wahaab was born in the area of Ul-Uwaynah in the year 1115 Hijri. It is the North of the city of Riyadh. • Shaykh Mohammed ibn Abdul Wahaab was raised in a household of knowledge o His father was the judge of the area o His grandfather, Suleman was the mufti and the scholars would return back to. o His paternal uncles were all known of people of knowledge • From a young age Shaykh Mohammed ibn Abdul Wahaab was studying learning from his own father and uncles • He memorised the whole of the Qu’raan before the age of 10 years old from his father. • At a young age he was reading into the books of hadith and tasfeer. He had a good level of understanding and knowledge at a very young age. • His father and the other scholars were amazed at his level of ability • He used to engage in conversations with them to the extent that the elders would benefit from him. • Even after taking from his father and uncles he was still not content. He then travelled out for knowledge. It was known from the salaf that they would study with the scholars in their region. Then after taking from the local scholars they would travel out and seek scholars in other areas. • He then travelled to go and preform Hajj. After Hajj he went to Madinah and met with the scholars in the Prophets ﷺ mosque. • The Shaykh even went to Basara - Iraq to seek knowledge and benefit from the scholars there. • After all of his travelling he intended to go to Shaam and benefit from more of the Scholars. However, as he made his way to Shaam he was about to die as he ran out of food and drink. So, he then returned back to Basra and equipped himself with more knowledge. • It was at this point when the Shaykh began his time in giving dawah. • When he returned to his homeland, he saw the evil which was being committed. He considered that he cannot stay silent whilst this evil was taking place. • The scholars of the area at that time were mostly focused on issues of fiqh, not aqeedah. • As for the aqeedah of the salaf there were very few that were focusing on that. • Many of the people were given in by the Bid’ah and Shirk they were upon. Many of them were grave worshippers, seeking intercession with the dead. They used to ask from the trees as they believed that they had Barakah in them. • When he saw the state of the muslims he was inclined to give dawah to the people • The books of Shaykh Mohammed ibn Abdul Wahaab – He wrote many books. The greatest of them. o Kitaab At Tawhid – The right of Allaah upon his Servants o Kashf ash-Shubuhaat • There were many people who were against the Shaykh and some of the people made so called refutations of the Shaykh. • The Shaykh clarified all of there refutations and hence made the book – Kashf ash-Shubuhaat. • Ustaadh Taqweem explains and gives a definition of the word – Doubt. Kashf means to expose those doubts and to separate those doubts. To remove the covering of something to expose it.
