Outside the Prophet‘s Mosque, Wahhabis have destroyed the Baqi, a large cemetery where tombs of several of the Prophet‘s wives, daughters, sons and as many as six grandsons and Shiite saints were once located

Muslims are too stupid to even try to perserve their history,why am I not surprized?

That’s part of the religious sternness of the Wahhabis. They approve no shrines, no pilgrimages to birthplaces or tombs or anyplace but the Kaaba, no images, no memorials, no honor to the hallowed dead or anything like it.

Wahhabis are very much like Puritans. They see the Shiites, who honor Islamic “blesseds” like Khadijah, Fatimah, and so forth, as something like Catholics with their saints.

I’m put in mind of the Protestants of Holland, who 400 years ago smashed all the statues of Apostles which were on the Cathedral in Alkmaar; and Cromwell’s men, who gouged the eyes of icons.
