i dont know much about tsawwuf so wont go into that - it does seem however that the shuykh he mentioned are well respected among different groups (except you-know-who group : p)

however the criticism on TJ was way off the mark. how does one bring a white guy to india and pakistan and then gather the headbanging kids from the concerts and have them witness his shahadah?
the question was about India and Pakistan not SA or UK. either way let us assume he was talking about UK and SA. why would headbangers even want to witness a white youth taking his shahadah?
why would they care if you tell them that if you do not practice Islam Allah (SWT) will replace you with these people?
they will be 'look i don't really care'.

so whichever country they are in, first you have to make the Muslim's Islamic awareness go up and then you explain this great reprimand from Allah (SWT).

despite all the efforts of Kuffar and their secular henchmen Islam practice in india and pakistan is one the rise. there is an increased number of people attending the mosque, keeping beard, trying to abstain from haram in their daily lives. similarly there is an increase of women wearing hijab/niqab and giving dawah to other sisters.
this is all down to the efforts of jamaats like TJ. cant say mcuh for DI and salafi dawah because never seen them at work in pakistan. most salafis prefer working with TJ.
