It is considered rude.. to call a group of people wahabi.. because this is one of the name of Allah
even Sheikh ABdul -wahab was called abdul... or slave of the most merciful. Wahaab
the term Wahaabi.. came into existance as an insult.
lastly.. their are lots of different type of people who claim salafiya.. It is becuase of the widespread of sufism (90% of syrians are shafi with a sufi twist) that the term has become so widespread.
If one were to look at the history.. Sheikh abdul Wahhab rooted all sufism out of Saudi those many years ago..
We now have these days.. people who follow the same sheikhs as us.. and also follow other sheikhs that we do not follow (and talk against) We can see these people in libya or algeria who are salafi jihaadis..... and the like.
The difference between some of these people is that they do takfeer. And also are not part of the other catagory of Arabs who believe that one must follow a madhab to learn about Islam and become a scholar.
