Bin Baz represented the Wahhabism founded by Muhammad Bin Abdulwahhab and made it even more intolerant, extremist and hostile to women. He became a judge at the age of twenty seven, which entitled him to issue a large enough number of fatwas for generations to sink under after him, both in Saudi Arabia and those countries which follow Wahhabi Islam in return for more than a handful of dollars.
Most people unfamiliar with the Islamic world don't understand how much it has changed since Saudi oil money has poured into its schools and mosques over the past 30 years, promoting Baz's version of Islam.
