Masha'Allah, I wish they were like this here also. Nevertheless at my place Deobandis are gaining more and more respect among the (Salafi) masses.

which city are you from. There are two types of salafis. Really strict harsh ones who attack everyone including the other group of salafis. They are commonly known as super salafis, madkhalis etc.

Then there are the more chilled out kinds like yasser qadhi, tawfique chaudry, mercy mission, al kauthar,green lane mosque, al maghrib, mrdf etc and they are the ones who have a much better view of deobandis, however both sides consider deobandis to be muslims that you can pray behind.

The harsher salafis are a seperate group who only associate amongst themselves and are clear and distinct from the other type and the strict salafis are few in number obviously due to their nature being so shadeed

also, the more chilled out group actually advocates studying madhahib while the hardcore ones say there is no problem following a madhab but better to follow qur'an and sunnah
