what's the difference between barelvi's and deobandi's?

[salahuldin786]

i know alot of deobandi's brother's and alot of barelvi's brother's and talking to each, there is not much difference between them, both are following hanafi madhab, both are sufi, they are just fighting over the past and some thing's here and there they both dont agree on.


1. Both accept the four Imams in fiqh - Imam Abu Haneefah, Imam Malik, Imam Shafi'ee, Imam Ahmad

2. Both are hanafi in their fiqh

3. Both accept the four chains of tasawwuf - Naqshabandiyyah, Qadiriyyah, Soharwardiyyah and Chishtiyya.

so why all the fighting and pointing finger's at each other.

[Believer1984]

Asalaam

The labels make every 1 fight.

If you were a true muslim ... You would find ways, solutions to unite.

You would bring back the loving days of bro and sis and put hate and pride aside !

w.s

[salahuldin786]

that's what im trying to do, im asking the so called deobandi's and so called barelvi's why all the hate. cant we put it aside for the greater good and unite like we used to be before all the difference's started coming in.

[Mohammed_123]

im a deobandi..but im still a beginner and not to sure of the differerences myself

so this thread shud hopefulyl be enlightening.!

[Mohammed_123]

from what ive been told, one of the main differences is "hazir/nazir" thing... and the status at which we hold the prophet pbuh..

if sumone wud care to elaborate?

[Fais]

Patiently waiting ...

Narrated Ibn Abbas: Those who have made their Scripture into parts are the people of the Scripture who divided it into portions and believed in a part of it and disbelieved the other. Sahih Bukhari (6:60:228)

No Difference between

Barelwis and Deobandis



Q:


What exactly is the difference between the school

of thought that follows Ala Hadrath Ahmed Rida Khan RA

and those that follow the school of thought of

Rashid Ahmed Gangohi against whom i understand

Ala Hadrath had said that there is inherent kufr

in the nature of thought expressed but did not issue

a fatwa of Kufr, as Maulana Rashid Gangohi had passed on.

(may Allah Ta'laa forgive me if i have made a mistake )



there is a lot of ikhtiflaaf in the Indian subcontinent

on this issue and i do understand that it is extremely volatile

- but, i would request you to kindly spare sometime and answer me





A:





Bismillah al-Rahman al-Rahim:



There is no difference in the generalities of `Aqida and

Fiqh between Barelwis and Deobandis. They are both Sunni

Hanafis, Sufis, Ash`aris or Maturidis. One stands in need

of the best each school has to offer, as indeed hold many

of the living prestigious teachers known to both sides.



Among the best commentaries on Sahih Muslim and the Sunan of

al-Tirmidhi and Abu Dawud are works by the Deobandis. The

lives of the Sahaba by al-Kandihlawi is a masterpiece. I`la'

al-Sunan and Aathaar al-Sunan are very valuable. As for Imam

Ahmad Rida Khan and his works, whoever does not recognize

their worth as one of the treasures of this Umma is a blasted

nincompoop who should wear a dunce cap until he learns.



Both sides are strict Hanafis and mainstream Sufis. We do not

endorse the mistakes that anyone might have made, such as

uttering words rightly perceived to lack adab in matters

of `Aqida or contesting the legality of celebrating Mawlid.



Nor do we endorse Takfir. Demonization of the other, saying

they are munafiq is unacceptable. We leave extremism to Najd

and its minions. Come together. Sayyid Muhammad `Alawi al-

Maliki advised you to do so, Sayyid Yusuf al-Rifa`i advised

you, Shaykh `Abd al-Hadi Kharsa advised you, Sayyid Ya`qubi,

Dr. al-Nass, others... Do you think you stand for the honor of

Allah and His Prophet more than such as these? Think again.



When the situation is such that there is mutual avoidance at

mosques, gatherings, etc. then it becomes wajib for every true

and sincere Deobandi should seek out his counterparts among

Barelwis and for every true and sincere Barelwi to seek out

his counterparts among Deobandis, pray together, learn from

one another, give salam, and increase love. Disunity is sin.

Or are you afraid you will lose reputation or funding? Shame.



Here is the resting-place of Shaykh `Abd al-Qadir Gilani and

Imam Abu Hanifa bracing for another Mongoloid onslaught. Will

you Sunnis still be debating and anathematizing one another

because of who said what as the Hour rises? Stressing ikhtilaf

and schism is from Shaytan. If this is what the general public

chooses to follow, it is their loss even as they shout ALLAHU

AKBAR and YA RASULALLAH from God's dawn to the wee hours. Salam.

The Barelvis exaggerate in their praises for the Prophet (saaw).

Some might even say they commit Shirk.


The beloved Messenger (saaw) warned us about exaggeration in praising him (saaw), like the Christians have done to Hadrat Isa (as) - so much that they've taken him (as) to be a 'god' or the 'son of...' - Astaghfirullah.

May ALLAH (SWT) Protect us all from all forms of Shirk - Ameen.

[Omar Mukhtar]

Brelvis believe Prophet s.a.w had Ilm Ghaib - knowledge of unseen, deobandis don't belive that.

They believe prophet was made of noor - light - deobani's don't believe that.

And the sad fact is that they (the Barelvis) can't see the illogical statements they adhere to.

Didn't the Prophet (saaw) say he was human, just like the rest of us ?

He (saaw) ate, drank and slept like the rest of us ?


Why can't people see the reasoning in that ?

Brelvis believe Prophet s.a.w had Ilm Ghaib - knowledge of unseen, deobandis don't belive that.

They believe prophet was made of noor - light - deobani's don't believe that.

One morning the Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace) was kept back from us, and he delayed the dawn prayer until we could almost see the sun, when he came out in a hurry and commenced the prayer. The Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him and give him peace) performed it quickly, and when he had closed with Salams, called out, “Stay as you are, in your rows.” He then turned to us and said, “I shall now tell you what kept me from you this morning. I rose last night, made ablution, prayed what had been destined for me to pray, but then became so drowsy in my prayer that lassitude overcame me. And lo, I was with my Lord, Blessed and Exalted, in a surpassingly beautiful form,[23] and He said, ‘O Muhammad,’ and I said, ‘Ever at Your service.’ He said, ‘What are the Supreme Assembly [of archangels] debating about?’ and I said, ‘I do not know.’ He asked this thrice. Then I saw Him place His hand between my shoulders until I felt the coolness of His fingertips between my breasts, and lo, everything was revealed to me, and I knew. He said, ‘O Muhammad, what are the Supreme Assembly debating about?’ I said, ‘About expiations.’ He said, ‘What are they?’ and I said, ‘The walking of one’s feet to good deeds, sitting in mosques after prayers, and making a thorough ablution when most unpleasant.’ He said, ‘And then?’ I said, ‘Feeding others, speaking affably, and praying the night when people sleep.’ He said, ‘Ask, saying: O Allah, I ask You that I may do good works, shun bad, and love the unfortunate; I ask that You may forgive me and show me mercy. And when You try a people, take my soul unafflicted. I ask Your love, the love of whoever loves You, and the love of works that bring one closer to Your love.’”

The Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him and give him peace) said. “It was the truth. Study and learn it” (Tirmidhi (c00), 5.368–69: 3235).[24]

I always thought the difference between Brelawis and Deobandis is that, brelawis are all pandoos from Mirpur/Jhelum-sorrounding villages and deobandis are all stingy gujjis. That confused me a bit when I came accross Pakistani deobandis but what do you know they must be immigrants. I also thought most Pakistani deobandis become Tablighi and gujjis become brelawis because the food is better on this side. I also thought people become salafis once they return from Hajj.

That was all before I was enlightened. alhamdulilah.

Kinda spooked me a bit as i'd never seen this sort of stuff before but i was suprised as it was mixed with the old and the young people. Anyone know what they are?

I'm familiar with this mosque (lea bridge rd) as i attend it now and then (i'm not brelvi), they have improved in some areas but are still backwards. They are fond of reciting the durood sharif loudly after salat and the iqamat before prayer is said by a person who gets up first before the imam, after he's finshed the congregation falls in line for salat.

[salahuldin786]

grave worshipping


The Prophet (May Allah send abundant blessings upon him) said: I used to ban you from the visitation of graves, now, visit them. (Bukhari)


Thirteen companions narrate this hadith. From amongst them are: Abu Sa�eed al-Khudri, Ibn Mas�ud and Abu Huraiyrah (May Allah be pleased with them all).


Kattani mentioned that the hadith is Successive �mutawatir�. (Nazm al-Mutanathir p129)


The visitation of graves is recommended for the purposes of remembering death and the hereafter. However, graves of the prophets and pious awliya are places of close means and a great intermediary to Allah (swt). This is not due to the graves themselves; instead it is due to the significance of the body that rests within.


This does not allow people to practice acts contrary to the Islamic norms; which are common in the people of the sub-continent due to their ignorance and lack of knowledge. It is the duty of the scholars to inform the people of permissible and impermissible practices.


The great Muhaddith, Abd al-Haq al-Dehlvi mentions the permissible form of intercession at the graves, who states:


�1-Firstly, the person who makes dua, begs Allah swt and is in need of him alone. The one in need makes the person of the grave an intermediary to Allah swt due to his raised rank and significance. One says: �Oh Allah! For the sake of this person whom you have bestowed your mercy upon, ease my hardship because you alone are the most generous and all giving.


2- Secondly, the person in hardship may also call the wali and ask him to intercede for him for the ease of difficulty.


In both forms of tawassul (intercession), one�s hope is not in the pious, instead the centre of hope is Allah (swt) who will resolve the problems, help in need, and provide the asked-for. The true and absolute benefactor, and authority of change, is Allah swt who is the creator of all existence.�


(As�at al-Lum�at sharh Mishkat 3:401, Fatwa Aziziyah 2:108)


He continues writing:


�If the visitor believes that the pious himself solves difficulty and independently eases hardship with all power to do so, without the reliability on Allah (swt) and dua, which is common in the ignorant as they commit such strongly condemned acts at the graves i.e. kissing the grave, prostrating to the grave, and praying salah towards it, this is unacceptable and the person is subject to punishment. One who knows the religion and has knowledge of the revealed law �alim� cannot practice such traditions.� (Ash�at al-Lim�at 3: 401)


Prostrating to the graves


It is not allowed to prostrate to the grave through veneration. Hence, it is strongly condemned by all scholars, as clearly stated by Imam Ahmed Rada (May Allah be pleased with him) in his book named: �al-Zubdah al-Zakiyyah fi Tahreem sujud al-Tahiyyah�.


The question is whether one is allowed to pray salah in a mosque with a grave. Many Mosques in the Islamic world are with a grave of a Prophet or either a pious.


The Prophet (May Allah send peace and blessings upon him) said: "May Allah curse the Jews and Christians; they have taken the tombs of their Prophets as places of worship." (Bukhari, Ahmed). Though, this hadith may imply the meaning that salah is not allowed in such mosques, Ibn Hajar Haythmi gives the pure meaning of this narration in his words:


�Taking a grave as a place of worship means to pray on the grave or towards it. The impermissibility, however, applies exclusively to the grave of someone respected... under the two conditions:

a) That the grave is of someone who is honoured and esteemed;

b) And that the prayer is performed towards or on the grave with the intention of gaining the blessing of it, or out of reverence for it." (al-Zawajir, Reliance w21)

This is the position of the Hanafi and Shafi`i schools.


Kissing and touching the grave


Though permissible according to some scholars, Imam Ahmed Rada disliked the practice in his Fatawa, in accordance with the soundest position.


He states: �there are diverse opinions amongst the scholars regarding kissing graves. It is an act which lies between two things: something that allows the practice: love and something that disallows it: �adab� respect. Hence, the one who does it through overwhelming love is not criticized because this act is proven from the sahabah. Though, it is better for the general public to be precautious. Our scholars have explicitly stated that one should stand at least four feet away from the grave, so how would one kiss it!?� (Fatwa Ridhwiyah, 9:528)


Allamah Samhudi (Ra) states:


Imam Abdullah asked his father, Ahmed bin Hanbal, whether it was permissible to touch and kiss the pulpit and grave of the Prophet (abundant peace and blessings be upon him), he replied: there is no fear in this act �la ba�sa bihi�. (wafa al-wafa 4:1404)


Imam Subki and Allamah Samhudi both narrate that Marwan (May Allah be pleased with them all) saw a person clinging to the Prophet�s grave (Peace and blessings be upon him). Marwan in anger gripped the throat of that person and shouted: Do you know what you are doing?


The man turned to him and replied �I have come to the Prophet (May Allah bless him) and not to a stone�! (Wafa al-Wafa 4:1359) Allamah Samhudi says: �Ahmed narrated it and said it has a sound chain�.


Sayyiduna Bilal rubbed his face on the Prophet�s grave, which was well known amongst the sahabah. (Hafiz Abd al-Ghani, Khatib bin Hamla, Wafa al-Wafa 4:1356, 1406)


Ibn Umar used to place his right hand on the grave of the Prophet (May Allah send abundant peace and blessings upon him). (Wafa al-Wafa 4:1406)


It is narrated that Ibn Abi Saiyf and Muhibb Tabari allowed kissing the graves of pious �saliheen�. Similarly, it is narrated from Isma�el Timi that whenever al-Minkdar (tabi�i) was afflicted with an illness in his mouth, he used to rub his cheek on the Prophet�s grave. Somebody objected on this practice to which he replied: �I seek cure from this�. (Wafa al-Wafa 4:1406)


Qurtabi mentions the famous narration of the Bedouin who came to the grave of the Prophet (May Allah�s blessings and peace be upon him) and clung to it. This was narrated from Sayyiduna Ali (May Allah be pleased with him) in which he says that the Bedouin poured the dust of the grave over his head. This story, as well as Utbi�s narration, is found in the books of Tafseer of Surah al-Nisa v.64.


Shaykh Abd al-Qadir Fakihi states: �In complete segregation where no laymen stick around, it is recommended to rub the cheek, face and beard on the Prophet�s grave. This act is permissible once done through love and good intention�. (Husn al-Tawassul fi ziyarati afdal al-Rusul. Fatwa Ridhwiyyah 9:531)


Sheikh Abd al-Ghani al-Nabulsi (May Allah be pleased with him) has a whole chapter to the name �Kissing the graves of the pious� in his �Jam al-Asrar fi al-radd ala ta�ini al-sufiya al-akhyar� in which he allows the kissing of the graves with combining evidence.


Allamah Abd al-Haq al-Dehlvi (Ra) states:


�Bayhaqi has a narration which allows kissing parent�s grave, but the correct position is that it is not allowed.� (Madaraj al-Nubuwwah 2:424)


The latter states in Ash�at al-luma�t (1:716):


�One should not touch the grave and neither kiss it�


These were some of the scholar�s statements regarding the topic.


I personally find the position of Imam Ahmad Rada (May Allah be pleased with him) moderate and in between the two opinions.


Sheikh Abd al-Ghani al-Nabulsi states: �where there is a questionable issue that can be marked permissible in any of the madhhabs, it is not a sin to commence that act and neither obligatory to obstruct from it. Though, Impermissible is that sinful act, upon which the scholars have agreed.�


(al-Hadeeqah al-Ndiyyah , al-Nabulsi, 2:309)


Tawaf of the grave


Some scholars have allowed this act, but the correct opinion is that it is not allowed.


It is mentioned in Majmah al-barakat:


�It is permissible for one to make tawaf of the grave 3 times�.


(Fatawa Ridhwiyyah 9:533)



Mullah Ali Qari states:


Tawaf is from the �khasa�is� of the ka�bah, thus, it is not allowed at the graves of the Prophets and pious. (Mansak Mutawassit p342)


Imam Ahmad Rada (May Allah bestow abundant blessing on his grave) also strongly condemned the act.


Qawali at graves


Imam Ahmed Rada (May Allah be pleased with him) disallowed the custom of qawali at the graves of the awliya, especially when there is free-mixing between the two sexes. He strictly condemned the qawali which includes the usage of musical instruments i.e. flutes and drums. Furthermore, all, if not, most qawalis in the sub-continent consist of these instruments.


Slaughtering animals at the grave


Slaughtering animals to send the reward to the dead is permissible. The food is then easily provided to the poor who usually gather at the tomb. Moreover, the practice is not impermissible unless associated with something prohibited i.e. free mixing (though the slaughtered will be halal to consume) and slaughtering in the name other than Allah swt (the slaughtered will not be halal) etc.


If one sees that unlawful acts are committed at the tombs of the awliyah, one should make all efforts by talking to someone responsible through hikmah. Moreover, if one fears that the talk will lead to fitna, one should stay silent. This is only when the visitor is from the general public. If the visitor is from the ulama, it is his duty to confront the responsible people so that the public are informed of the right and wrong practices.


"Whoever of you sees something wrong let him change it with his hand. If unable to, then let him change it with his tongue. If still unable to, then with his heart. And that is the weakest degree of faith."


And Allah alone provides guidance.

[salahuldin786]

intercession


Walaikum assalam,

The praised station (al-maqam al-mahmud) is the Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace)�s intercession. The station of mediation (maqam al-wasila) is a rank in Paradise that no one but the Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace) shall reach.

In Sahih al-Bukhari:

Jabir ibn Abd Allah (Allah be pleased with him) reports that the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace be upon him) said, �Whoever says the following after hearing the call to prayer deserves my intercession (shafa`a) on the Day of Judgment: �O Allah, Lord of this perfect call and ready prayer! Grant Muhammad the mediation (wasila)and honor, and resurrect him on the praised station that your have promised him.��



اللهُمّ ربَّ هذهِ الدَّعوةِ التّامّةِ والصّلاةِ القائِمةِ آتِ مُحمَّداً الوَسِيلةَ والفَضِيلةَ وابْعَثْهُ مَقاماً مَحمُوداً الَّذِي وعَدْتَهُ
Imam Badr al-Din al-`Ayni (Allah have mercy on him) explains this hadith in his commentary on Sahih al-Bukhari, `Umdat al-Qari:



(Mediation � wasila) Its linguistic sense is the means of drawing closer to another, and a rank with a king� A hadith in Sahih Muslim explained this as being a rank in Paradise� �Then ask Allah to grant me the mediation (wasila), for it is a rank in Paradise that none but a single servant of Allah�s servants deserves, and I hope that it be me, so whoever asks Allah that he grant me the mediation shall have my intercession.� �

(Praised station � maqaman mahmudan) Ibn al-Jawzi said that most scholars hold this to mean the [major] intercession� [Ayni, Umdat al-Qari, 5.123-124]

This intercession is of various types, including the major intercession at the Gathering, where he (Allah bless him & give him peace, and grant us his intercession and concern) will intercede for all humanity and jinns to lessen the dreads of the Day of Resurrection.

The Prophet�s Intercessions Are Many

These major intercessions are 6:

1. Lessening the dreads of the Day of Resurrection;

2. Entering some people into Paradise without reckoning; these two are said to be particular to the Prophet (Allah bless him & give him peace);

3. For some who deserved punishment in the Fire;

4. Taking out some who actually entered the Fire;

5. Raising the ranks of those in Paradise;

6. Lessening the punishment of those eternally in the Fire, such as Abu Talib and others.

في صحيح البخاري: حدثنا علي بن عياش قال حدثنا شعيب بن أبي حمزة عن محمد بن المنكدر عن جابر بن عبد الله أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم قال من قال حين يسمع النداء اللهم رب هذه الدعوة التامة والصلاة القائمة آت محمدا الوسيلة والفضيلة وابعثه مقاما محمودا الذي وعدته حلت له شفاعتي يوم القيامة

[salahuldin786]

on the Day of Qiyamah, a crown, which will light up the East to the West, will be placed on the head of Hufaaz parents.

Intercession by a Shaheed (Martyr) will be 50 persons, Hajee 70 persons, and the Righteous Ulama - countless people so much so that those who had any contact with an Aalim of Deen will be privileged by his Shafa'at. Some will say that I gave him water for Wudhu, some will say that I did certain work for him, etc. These people will be judged accordingly and sent to Jannah (Paradise).

The Judgement of the Ulema will be long over, but they will be held back and others will be going to Jannah. The Ulema will enquire as to why they are being held back from entering Jannah. Allah will reply: "On this Day, you are like the Angels to Me. Intercede, for by your intercession the Sunnis will be forgiven". It will be said to all the Righteous Sunni Ulama to intercede for all their students even though they may be as many as the stars in the sky.

[THE PATH 2]

that's what im trying to do, im asking the so called deobandi's and so called barelvi's why all the hate. cant we put it aside for the greater good and unite like we used to be before all the difference's started coming in.

NO HATE ..JUST slight differences

a top brelvi near us died on the 27th roza in ramadhan

its the end ..and the heart that counts..

not the small details that are petty but are blown up to divide us

we all get along and share 99.99999999999999999%..and more
