Shaykh Salman Nadwi says "Mujhay buhat Bura laga kaheen Barelvio , shioo nay Dr Zakir Naik par pabandi lagna chahi. Kaheen Deobandi naraaz huway. Agar wo naraaz hain tou mujhay maloom hona chaheyay kay Zakir Sahib nay keya ghalatiyaan ki hain takay wo insay touba karain"

translation:I was very much displeased with the fact that at one hand barelvis and Shias tried to get Dr Zakir Naik banned and at the other hand deobandis got displeased with him. If they (deobandis) are displeased with Dr Zakir Naik then i should know what mistakes did Dr Zakir Naik commit so that he can repent from them.

I think his beneath the lines message is clear which is "Come with a proof before leveling allegations against Dr Zakir Naik".

Dr Sahib,

I think if we are true, we would know that Dr. Zakir Naik is not spared by even Salafis of Saudi and UK, you will find a video of Sh. al-Hajouri and Salafi Publications attacking him on many issues (a thorough refutation), whilst the Deobandi's official fatwa regarding him is to remain silent about Fiqhi Ikthilafi issues, all the major Deobandi Fatawa regarding him are compiled Here. You will see a stark difference. In fact there were occasions where he was giving fatawa and said a reference was in Bukhari which was refuted by a Deobandi Scholar, which proves that just as they rightly said for him to remain quiet in regards to Fiqh and Ikhtilafi matters they have also proven (with proof) his wrong referencing (and wrong referencing can be dangerous for the layman). As you can see the Deobandis are not Ghuloo in their refutations of him unlike the Salafis and even Barelwis or Shi'ahs.

Wallahu A'lam
