Definición

  • Wahhabism refers to an austere 18th-century reform movement arising in the central Arabian oasis settlement of Najd. Through ties to the rising Saudi monarchy, Wahhabi adherents established their doctrine in Arabia and built networks of affiliated Muslims in Europe, the Americas, the Indian subcontinent, southeast Asia, and elsewhere.
