Abu Abdullah Mahmud bin Muhammad al-Haddad (Arabic: أبو عبدالله محمود بن محمد الحداد, romanized: Abū ʻAbd Allāh Maḥmūd bin Muḥammad al-Ḥaddād) is an Egyptian Islamic scholar who is credited with founding the Salafi faction known as Haddadism.
Biography
Al-Haddad was born in Egypt and came to Saudi Arabia to study Salafism and preach it. However, his hardline stances on several issues led to his expulsion from Saudi Arabia.[1]
Al-Haddad's controversial views include that Ibn Taymiyya united with the people of innovation and that the books of al-Nawawi and Ibn Hajar al-Asqalani should be burned.[2][3] Saudi scholars Rabi' al-Madkhali and Abdulaziz al-Reis harshly criticized al-Haddad for these views.[2]
