Al-Wahhab did not allow aggressive military action. Ibn Taymiyya did. Which is traditional Mohammedan teaching and practice. The Mohammedans didn't conquer two-thirds of the Christian world by force of argument.

Islamic scholars have a different view. They say todays Wahhabism is a mutation of the movements founding principles, and that it must be understood in its historical context, from its founding in the 18th century up to its controversial status today.
