barelvis say indo-pak salafis are kafir.
they are also scholars.

are they correct?

do not say 'given by scholars' as though it is a final judgement on something.

extremists exist in any group. and there both extremes: too harsh and too mild.

I would not call them kafir, some scholars do claim that some of their anthropomorphic beliefs are problematic. The first salafis in Saudi killed Muslims and slaughtered them as kafirun. Khawarij do this. The current Salafis admire and follow these earlier Salafis or wahabis who are from the najd...so they are upon the same manhaj. My brother was a staunch salafi..maybe no so much now...but I am aware of all the arguments they use....they consider most Muslims to be mushriks.
