Matters in Belief (20): Exaggeration in the Righteous

In this chapter from Kitab al-Tawhid, we explore the cause behind the misguidance and disbelief of many from the children of Adam: excessiveness (ghuluw) in venerating the righteous. Shaykh al-Islam Muhammad ibn Abdul-Wahhab (رحمه الله) explains how exaggeration in honoring pious individuals led earlier nations away from Tawhid and into shirk.

This lesson is a timeless warning for Muslims today — to uphold pure Tawhid, avoid innovations, and prevent falling into the same traps that destroyed past nations. We reflect on the importance of balance, sincerity, and adherence to the Qur’an and Sunnah without exaggeration.

📖 Join us in this series on Kitab al-Tawhid as we uncover foundational principles that every Muslim must understand and implement.
