520 |a This research seeks to determine the accuracy of the presumptive definition given to the terminology Wahhabi and also to uncover the origin of the terminology, the historical background, and the teachings of Wahhabism in Malaysia. The study comprises of a small-scale qualitative research with convenience sampling of three renowned Malaysian celebrities who accepted the call for hijrah (spiritual migration)—Wardina Safiyyah, Natasha Hudson and Mizz Nina—and four representatives of international Islamic institutes in Malaysia—Bayyinah Institute, Mercy Mission, AlMaghrib Institute, and The Straight Path committee. The study also involves an analysis of samples from official statements and documents by religious institutions in Malaysia in order to investigate the understanding of religious institutions in Malaysia towards Wahhabism. Unwarranted labelling is present, which indicates unhealthy stereotypes among the religious authorities, thus influencing the society. The label Wahhabi is used to describe someone who is against the idea of the traditional conventions. Furthermore, there are also misapprehensions on the real teachings of Wahhabism in existing publications. Subsequently, Wahhabism is considered a threat to the common teachings practiced by the Malaysian Muslims. This scenario incites disunity of the ummah as well as promotes extremism in character judging. A number of observations and recommendations have been made in curbing the problem from spreading and becoming more severe in the Muslim society in Malaysia.
