the government in Syria is mostly Wahhabi and are doing the killing towards Sunnis, shia's and Christians.
I would even say that the Wahhabi community is not upholding Sharia in Saudi and the general muslim would agree
Assalaamu alaykum,
Bro, you are seriously mistaken here. The government of Syria is not "wahhabi" (even though this doesn't exist as Muhammad Isa said). They are 'alawites' who are an offshoot of the Shi'a but they are not Muslims because they believe that Allah, what do you call it... I forget the word but they believe Allah 'went into' Ali (ra), prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, and others. And they literally worship them and also their evil president. You can go see yourself on youtube they have posters of him and prostrate to it and everything, they kill the Sunnis there and sometimes they say "there is no god but Bashar al-assad (their pres.)"!! They aren't even considered Muslims or a sect of Shia by the Shia themselves.
And also, Iran and the Shia in general are supporting them!
Also, you are correct about the Saudi regime, they claim to be Salafis (which most people call 'wahhabis') but don't even apply Shari'ah Law 100% and are dogs of the US. And the people who protest this (who are also salafi/'wahhabi') are killed and imprisoned by them.
wa alaykum salaam
It's the graves of his companions that they are destroying as well as all Islamic history and places of significance on their claim that people are committing shirk and worshiping the graves of his companions. That is against Islamic law, it is not Islamic to destroy the graves of the Sahaba because an idiot wants to worship graves which cannot benefit him nor harm him.
On the other hand you can see their hypocrisy. The consider themselves to be Salafis, better than everyone else, and thus it's OK to preserve the pens, glasses and a few other things which belonged to their Wahabi Saudi Scholars. (I don't have anything against the scholars, I just hate the hypocrisy and the notion of them being the elite while others are innovators)
Assalaamu alaykum.
This 'destroying the graves' comes from the Sunnah of Rasoolullah (peace and blessings be upon him):
Book 004, Number 2114:
Thumama b. Shafayy reported: When we were with Fadala b. 'Ubaid in the country of the Romans at a place (known as) Rudis, a friend of ours died. Fadala b. 'Ubaid ordered to prepare a grave for him and then it was levelled; and then he said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) commanding (us) to level the grave.
Book 004, Number 2115:
Abu'l-Hayyaj al-Asadi told that 'Ali (b. Abu Talib) said to him: Should I not send you on the same mission as Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) sent me? Do not leave an image without obliterating it, or a high grave without levelling It. This hadith has been reported by Habib with the same chain of transmitters and he said: (Do not leave) a picture without obliterating it.
And it is not really destroying their graves, getting rid of the stuff the people build over them.
Book 004, Number 2116:
Jabir said: Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) forbade that the graves should be plastered or they be used as sitting places (for the people), or a building should be built over them.
Book 004, Number 2117:
A hadith like this has been transmitted on the authority of Jabir b. 'Abdullah.
Book 004, Number 2118:
Jabir said that he was forbidden to build pucca graves.
[ All from Sahih Muslim ]
As far as I know, keeping things such as pens n stuff is OK but Allah knows best.
wassalaam
