Not every Deobandi is a Sufi, and not every Salafi abandons the Madhahib.

Firstly in 'Aqeedah be an Athari meaning layman Athari (The Hadith of Jibreel 'Alayhial-Salaam is sufficient) so you don't need to go down the road of getting tangled with Ash'ari, Maturidi and Salafi debates.

Secondly in Fiqh if your already a Hanafi, then find good Scholars of this School whom you can refer to, whether they are from Egypt, India, South Africa or any part of the World who can teach you the fiqh of this School and transmit authentically the School's opinions. But better to look in your locality wherever ever you may reside. And work your way up in 'Ilm, learn the beautiful language of the Qur'an and increasing your knowledge.

Thirdly Sufism is a branch of Ihsan, Tazkiyah al-Nafs, which in itself is obligatory upon every Muslim, which is reforming ones-self, now whether you do this by finding a Shaykh and learning from him through Bay'ah (or not) or simply attending the Duroos of Mashaayikh teaching this side of the science through their own methods then that is also fine, we cannot be people of Ta'assub. There were classical Scholars who were masters of Turooq and this is why some Schools have kept this practice of the Classical Scholars, and the downside is you will find some who are Ghuloo Sufis and some who are not. so always be alert of fraudsters and charlatans.

And with Allah is help sought.
