assalamu alaykum

I Was wondering how favourably hizb ut tahrir are viewed to the deobandi community?

My own analysis is that they do good by spreading awareness of khilafah but they are usually quite neglectful of deen. I dont know enough about them though and wondered how they are viewed by the deobandis in general

HT was one of the first Islamic groups I was influenced by and started to practice Islam properly since then. So alhamdulilah I benefited from them a lot in that way. The brothers I was with were ma'sha'Allah some of the most active I've seen in enjoining good and forbidding evil throughout their daily routine. I found their political activeness regarding events in the Muslim world really good as its not something that we can just ignore. A lot practicing people are stuck in this false way of thinking that leadership will just be given overnight if Muslims start praying more often and increase in other ritual ibadah, but thats not in accordance with the Prophetic method. So a group like HT are good for drawing people away from that way of thinking and to actually practically start trying to implement Islam.

Having said that there are a lot of errors in the group generally speaking. They have a very very soft stance towards the Shia, they had even approached the Iranian priest Khomeini to establish Khilafah who didnt even want to know them. They have mistakes in aqeedah such as denial of punishment in the grave. They have their own sort of fiqh for certain 'contentious' issues like the beard and music. And i didnt like it when they were critical of other Islamic groups striving for Islam, they strongly believed it is only their group who have correctly understood the Prophetic method for establishing Islam (maybe this last point only applies to the HT affiliates I encountered and not all of them).
