Wahabi is still OK, as long as we are not fanatic on any sect and keep being tolerant to other Islamic sect
Many Indonesian is also Wahabi as our second biggest Islamic organization is Wahhabi, but they are not a follower and blend Wahabi with Islam modernist and no linked to Saudi since the organization is made before Saudi was even born as a country.
Muhammadiyah (
Arabic: محمدية, followers of
Muhammad); also known as the
Muhammadiyah Society (
Indonesian:
Persyarikatan Muhammadiyah) is a major
Islamic non-governmental organization in
Indonesia.
[2] The organization was founded in 1912 by
Ahmad Dahlan in the city of
Yogyakarta as a
reformist socioreligious movement, advocating
ijtihad - individual interpretation of
Qur'an and
Sunnah, as opposed to
Taqlid - conformity to the traditional interpretations propounded by the
ulama.
[3] It played an important role in the expansion of
Salafism in
Indonesia.
[4] Since its establishment, Muhammadiyah has adopted a reformist platform mixing religious and secular education,
[5] primarily as a way to promote the upward mobility of
Muslims toward a 'modern' community and to purify Indonesian Islam of local syncretic practices.
[5] It continues to support local culture and promote religious tolerance in Indonesia, while a few of its higher education institutions are attended mostly by non-Muslims, especially in
East Nusa Tenggara and
Papua provinces. The group also runs a large chain of charity hospitals,
[2] and operated 128 universities as of the late 1990s.
[6]
In 2008, Muhammadiyah was considered the second largest Islamic organization in Indonesia with 29 million members.
[3] Although Muhammadiyah leaders and members are often actively involved in shaping the politics in Indonesia, Muhammadiyah is not a political party. It has devoted itself to social and educational activities.

Recent Wahhabi that has direct link into Saudi I admit is a bit fanatic and favors Saudi so much.

Many terrorist is Wahhabi, but IMO it is not the fault of Wahabi, but because all of them comes from Authoritarian region (AQ from Saudi, and ISIS from Syria)
