Comments: I am sorry brother. This topic has been discussed a million times. No more discussion allowed on it. If you want to post in parts of fatwas from durulifta.org and other deobandi sites, then this will not be allowed either, because as far as I know everything on that particular site has been posted on Ya Nabi and it did not work.

You know the position of Ya Nabi. So posting the same repititive stuff again and again will not help, because in the past it did nothing to change what is the truth.

Barelwis are not a sect. There is a Huge Sufi tariqa in South Asia called "Qadiri Razawi Silsila" of the Great Mujaddid which is labelled "barelwi" by the followers of the school in Deoband. And they then as a consequence got the name "Deobandi".

Barelwiyyah (the sufi tariqah) are not a sect. So please correct your mistake. Deobandis are not a sect either. It is haraam to make sects in Islam.

In Sunni Maturidi Aqeeda we do not make sects. A sect is a group that considers all other besides itself outside the fold of Islam.

We do not do mockery, neither ridicule nor defamation except of Shaytani beliefs.

Please remember all Sunni Muslims of the Barelwi Tariqa are labelled "bid'ati" "Mushrik" "Kaafir" back home, which is still going on.

Additional comments
If our Deobandi brothers say that we set the Holy Prophet (sawas) equal to Allah (swt) in any fashion, then they are connotatively emphasizing us Mushriks. If that is the case then I don’t believe the matter is as miner and pitiful anymore.

From your writings it’s apparent that there is no dispute on the attribute of knowledge but rather the definition of Ghayb.

Deobandi scholars:

Allah does not know beforehand what His creation would do. Allah comes to know of their doings only after they have done something. (Tafseer Bulghatul Hairaan, page 157/158)

Shaitaan and the Angel of death are more knowledgeable than the Holy Prophet(Sallal Laahu 'Alaihi Wa Sallam). (Baraaheen-e-Qaati'ah, page 51/52)

The kind of knowledge and the amount of knowledge of the unseen given by Almighty Allah to the Holy Prophet(Sallal Laahu 'Alaihi Wa Sallam) has also been given to animals, lunatics and children.(Hifzul Imaan, page 7)

As you can see from their founders, they have clearly misinterpreted the term Ghayb and some of their scholars don’t even attribute it to Allah (swt).

Haq Ali, Ya Ali
