Ca= the Saudis Break Up With Wahhabism? 
July 3, 2018 
By Nabil Mouline 
Mr. Mouline is a=historian of the Saudi clergy and monarchy.

The speed and magnitude of change in Saudi Arabia <https://www.nytimes.com/2017/12/=3/world/middleeast/saudi-
arabia-photos-women-gender.html> has a=celerated considerably after the consecration of Crown Prince Mohammed 
bin S=lman. To legitimize his ascent, fulfill his absolutist ambitions and face v=rious internal and external challenges, 
Prince Mohammed has presented and p=sitioned himself as the champion of "modernization." 
Several of the crown prince's statement= and initiatives 
<https://mobile.nytimes.c=m/2018/07/03/opinion/h=tps://www.nytimes.com/2017/11/10/opinion/mohammed-bin-
salman-saudi-arabia.h=ml> — calling for a moderate Islam, authorizing wo=en to drive, reopening cinemas — have 
been interpreted as his desir= to break the historic pact between the House of Saud and the Wahhabi relig=ous 
establishment. 
In the mid-18th century= the Saud embraced Muhammad ibn Abd al-Wahhab, a revivalist preacher who ad=ocated a 
narrow reading of the Quran and the Hadith and attacked any deviat=ons from or accretions to the original practice. 
People who deviated from t=e Wahhabi doctrine were excluded from Islam, and jihad was considered the o=ly way to 
bring them back to the right path. 
The compact with Wahhab and his disciples helped the Saud to legitimize a= expansionist policy and create a durable 
state in the early 20th century. T=e Saudi monarchy monopolized political and military action; the Wahhabi cle=ics took 
charge of the religious, legal and social spheres.
