The text in the provided image translates as follows:
On the right side (False Claim): An alleged picture of the renewer Imam Muhammad ibn Abd al-Wahhab, may Allah have mercy on him, is being circulated across social media platforms. The image shows a person sitting on a chair, who they claim is Imam Muhammad ibn Saud, may Allah have mercy on him, and another standing beside him, who they claim is Imam Muhammad ibn Abd al-Wahhab, may Allah have mercy on him.
On the left side (The Truth): This information is incorrect. The person sitting on the chair is Sheikh Abdullah bin Isa bin Ali Al Khalifa, a son of the ruler of Bahrain, and not Imam Muhammad ibn Saud... It is worth noting that the first photograph was taken in 1826, and the invention of photography was announced on August 19, 1839.
