Where Does ISIS’s Ideology Stem From?

Wednesday 18 February 2015
Where Does ISIS’s Ideology Stem From?

Alwaght- All the moderate Islamic scholars and militants condemned the violent behaviors and actions of the self-nominated “Khalifah” ISIS’s Abu Baker al-Baghdadi. As they condemned ISIS’s mascaras against their opponents, they consider that ISIS’s intellects stem from Wahhabism and the teachings of Ibn Taymiyyah.

Several reports indicates that Saudi monarchy has spent billions of dollars since 1973 to promote Wahhabism in the US, Europe, Southeast Asia and Africa.  According to Saudi officials, the monarchy had financed the foundation of more than 2000 schools, to “educate” Muslims in non-Muslims countries all over the world. Saudi aid to Muslims abroad, comes with strings attached, and most of the recipient foundations end up endorsing the Wahhabi version of Islam.

These schools teach their pupils hatred against every other religion or sector. Students taught, "It is better to shun and even to dislike Christians, Jews and Shiite Muslims." Students learn it is acceptable to consider others as infidels and enemies. The Wahhabi teachings, Ibn Taymiyyah’s teachings, are stated in the Saudi-supplied textbooks in the Wahhabi school.

Therefore, the elimination of the causative roots of hatred and violence in the Islamic world requires the silencing of the Wahhabi scholars and shutting down their schools. The Wahhabi-ISIS ideology defames Islam, Quran and the Sunnah, the tradition of Prophet Mohammad.

Although ISIS recruited former Baathist militants and members of other groups including Muslim Brotherhood, but no one can doubt or deny the Saudi financial, ideological, organizational support to ISIS.

Over the ISIS’s sites and headquarters lies Al Qaeda symbols and phrases that clearly are Wahhabi symbols and phrases. ISIS’s militants are invited to Wahhabi “Tohid” (monotheism), obliged to go to mosques, and attend Friday as well as Jemaah Prayers just as Wahhabism orders. As we look to the views and policies of Wahhabism, we realize that its teachings inspired ISIS’s terrorist militants in all matters.

ISIS labels other Takfiri groups as infidels

Excommunicating other groups and labeling them as infidels is not an innovated  by ISIS. Excommunication is a conventional weapon among Al Qaeda groups.

 For instance, ISIS considered all the active forces in the Iraqi field including the Islamic Army of Iraq, Ansar Al Sunnah group, the Islamic front of Iraqi Resistance group, etc. as apostates and infidels. Moreover, they also excommunicated terrorist groups in Syria share them the same Wahhabi beliefs, such as Jabhat Al Nusra and the Islamic front group. 

Al Qaeda leaders remember very well, what happened in both Algeria and Afghanistan, and how the terrorist groups eliminated one another, because they did not share the same views and accused each other of heresy.  Now the Scenario is being repeated. ISIS eliminates its opponents within Al Qaeda, where Al Nusra, Ansar Al Sunnah, and  Islamic Front terrorists are being executed for crooked accusations. 

Actually, the concept of the struggle between the  leaders of terrorist groups, and Pledging of allegiance to them all arise from Wahhabi beliefs. For instance, ISIS’s Saudi leader plotted the failed assassination attempt of Al Nusra’s leader, Julani, in Syria, when the latter pledged of allegiance to Al Qaeda leader Al Zawaheri.

 

 The Roots of ISIS in the Saudi Government

The aforementioned measures make up the basis of the Wahhabi creed and regulations, and determine the guidelines for all the successive Saudi regimes. A brief study of t Saudi Wahhabi regimes' history shows that the uprising of the Saudi monarchy is a copy of what we are observing right now, with the up rise of ISIS. Just like Saudi Arabia, ISIS is setting its bases on the ruins of city, on the bodies of the murdered and slaughtered, and by excommunicating opponents. In other words, ISIS is a symbol that reflects the image of Wahhabism. This is why this terrorist group enjoys a good reputation and support among Saudi Wahhabi princes, because they share the same Wahhabi principles and guidelines.

However considering the fact that ISIS terrorist group is a model of the Saudi monarchy, both in terms of content nor in form, one may conclude that this Wahhabi-made monster could also be a dangers rival for its now shaky pattern, Saudi regime.
