Attributing the actions of Da'ish and the Khawarij to the books of Shaykh Muhammad ibn 'Abd al-Wahhab

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: How do we respond to those who attribute the actions of what is called Da'ish and the Khawarij, such as takfir (declaring someone a disbeliever) or bombing, to the books of Shaykh al-Islam Muhammad ibn 'Abd al-Wahhab (may Allah have mercy on him)?

Answer:
What is the distance between Shaykh al-Islam Muhammad ibn 'Abd al-Wahhab and Da'ish? I mean, are they students of this Shaykh al-Islam? This is a lie and an unjust accusation against the scholars and the people of the Sunnah and the community. Da'ish is a newly formed sect that does not claim affiliation with Muhammad ibn 'Abd al-Wahhab or with any other of the reliable scholars. They have scholars among them, yes. They did not ask the people of knowledge about that. They have those who issue fatwas for them from among their scholars, yes.
