Abstract
Wahhabis apply different methodologies to accuse people of heresy. Since it is essential to examine and criticize these methods, before all else we need to know them. The objective of this research is to determine Wahhabis methodologies of Takfiris. Examining Takfiri Wahhabis' beliefs, the researcher discovered several of their methods of excommunicating people, which include: relying on the literal meaning of the religious texts rather than the esoteric interpretation, adopting Salafism which means an excessive and dogmatic method of following the opinions of the first three centuries' Predecessors (Salaf), overlooking the authenticity of religious texts, excommunicating people of opposite beliefs and accepting people of the same beliefs as Muslims and pretending a fake consensus in order to excommunicate, calumniate and accuse people.
