Wa alaikum salam

May Allah have mercy uppn him. Is it not true that this Shaykh was strongly in line with the Barelwi ideology and he practiced Miladun-Nabi, belived in Hadir wa Nadir and was anti-Deobandi or not? I ask, because some 10 years back i heard that a Shaykh al-hadith from his area of Zakigonj known as Mawlana Abdal Ghani was ready to debate this late Shaykh over these types of issues.

Wassalam

Promoting heresay is wrong. If you want clarification of what I say, there are plenty of his senior mureeds still alive, you can ask at Darul Hadis Latifiyah for more info.

But No, the shayk was NOT barelvi. Nor was he Deobandi. He was against the concept of Hazir i Nazir, and there is a youtube video circulating the web that shows him saying that there is no basis for this terminology found in the sharia.

But yes, he was pro mawlid.

And, no he was NOT anti-deobandi. He agreed with them on many issues. He had both supporters from the deobandi and barelvi camps, as well as haters. He was a close friend with the famous deobandi alim, Allamah Bourana sahib qibla (rah).

It is because of people like Allamah Fultali (RAH) and Allamah Biscutti (RAH) that we in Bangladesh, have many people who are neutral in leaning.

PS: He was also against the istigatha practiced by barelvis, if you go to a mawlid gathering that one of his student/followers hold. You will clearly hear at the dawah at the end of the salwat, the shaykh saying Ya Allah please convey our salams to your prophet sawas.

Rest assured, he did not agree with any fatwas of takfir aimed at any group of scholars. He has praised Maulana Ashraf Ali Thanvi (RA) and Shaykh Al Hadith Zakariyah Khandalvi (RAH) numerous times, and I am sure the other akabir of deoband too.

Being a person who is pro mawlid, does not make one anti deobandi or one to become a barelvi, this is imporant to note.
