The likes of Imam Abdasamad Clark thinks very highly of former luminaires of Deoband!!
However one must agree that in recent times, deoband hasn't produced many scholars of their former self.

Do you think that anyone would disagree with your assessment? Furthermore, would you say that there are any institutions right now that are producing Ulema of the caliber of Deoband's early luminaries?

There is a dissconnect between academics, inteletuals and scholars unlike the former times. The rise of secularism and new money syndrome within the muslim community simply made this worse as middleclass (generally the academics) are not there to be found. This causes stagnation!
Allahualam

Please explain what you mean by "new money syndrome" as I don't quite understand.
