Akabireen deoband has very strong association with silsilsa naqshbandia.
Firstly as mentioned earlier on this thread,the grand shaikh of deoband Haji Imdad ullah ra was a khalifa of shah muhammad Afaq,who was a nashbandi shaikh.Secondly Hazrat Noor Muhammad ra,who was shaikh of Haji Imdad ullah ra was also a khalifa of Syed Ahmad Shaheed,who was a great shaikh of Naqshbandia .Thirdly Akabireen e deoband like rasheed ahmad gangoohi ra and molana qasim Nanotvi ra were students of Shah abdul ghani naqshbandi ra in hadeeth,fourthly akabirren deoband were followers of shah wali ullah in maslak,who was naqshbandi. |

guys, the OP is asking about this guy: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sayyid_Ahmed_Amiruddin he's some sorta deputy of Nazim Haqqani!! They (haqqanis) are far from the Naqshbandi's whom the Deobandi's are connected to others can explain better...... |

walaikum assalam
what does OP mean? to be honest i knew that some of the leading scholars of the deoband had afiliation with tariqahs but i didnt think it was something that was encouraged!?!; although living amongst a deoband community there now seems to be a trend to exercise sprituality which of course is encouraged, alhamdulillah. i would like to know a bit more about the approach of deoband to tariqah because i think the animosity that was once there is now reducing inshAllah |

walaikum assalam OP = Original Poster (i.e. abz in this case) Seems youre frm a barelwi background. Barelwis do like to spread myths about Deoband and this is one of them. Tasawwuf and spirituality is extremely encouraged. Mawlana Ashraf Ali Tahanwi is considered a Mujaddid in this field in the Indo/Pak subcontinent (well, among non-Barelwis that is). to be honest i knew that some of the leading scholars of the deoband had afiliation with tariqahs but i didnt think it was something that was encouraged! ...there now seems to be a trend to exercise sprituality "trend"... astaghfiruLlah. What do you mean by that? Every single one of the Deobandi elders were affiliated to and greatly encouraged tasawwuf and spirituality...though not the type of "spirituality" which is restricted by some to mazars and dances. ......animosity that was once there is now reducing.... animosity...what nonsense!!! Animosity was to Shirk and Bid'ah, not tasawwuf! Your notion that the Ulama of Deoband where against tasawwuf is just on of many myths created by some barelwis, which theyll have to answer for inshaAllah. A good place to start would have been www.deoband.org but theyve got some technical problems at present. But since it seems you dnt really have a clue about the maslak of Deoband, you may want to read this: http://www.darululoom-deoband.com/english/index.htm Here's a great snippet from it: If this track which has been obtained through the spiritual connections (Nisbats) of the predecessors and the successors is reduced to technical language, then in sum it is this that religiously Darul Uloom is Muslim; as a sect, Ahl-e-Sunnat wal-Jama'at; in practical method, (Mazhab), Hanafi'yat; in conduct, Sufi; dialectically, Maturidi Ash'ari; in respect of the mystic path, Chishtiyyah, rather comprising all the Sufi orders; in thought, Waliyullhian; in principle, Qasimiyah; sectionally, Rasheedian; and as regards connection, Deobandi". |

Assalamu alaikum,
I think perhaps some sub continent folks forget that there are other hanafis in the world aside from deobandis and barvelis. The remnants of the ottoman empire are at least nominally hanafi, and along with it, there are branches of the naqshbandi tariqa. Of course, not all ottoman naqshbandi tariqas are like the haqqanis. There are probably plenty who are more traditional in their view. I conversed with a secular/liberal bosnian hanafi online a few years back, and was quite surprised at the lax view she portrayed of what hanafis are in eastern europe. I was surprised at how she identified herself as a hanafi muslim, and went on and on about how liberal hanafis were. I was like umm, let me tell you about deobandis then... One thing I would like to know more about, if I ever can find english language resources on the subject, is the development of the hanafi madhab in the ottoman empire, and how it differs from the hanafi madhab in the subcontinent. |

Assalamu alaikum, 1. While sometimes the people on this forum criticise others for something which is a legitimate difference of opinion, this is very rare 2. They are very strict on areas where no such legitimate difference exists, such as regards to the permissibility (or rather impermissibility) of music, not touching a non mahram, etc hence, the Haqqani's are failures 3. The problem with the secular/liberal Bosnian was that she was a secular/liberal Bosnian. While the Deobandies (and I am not one myself) have solid evidence for what they say, I doubt she does 4. There were many weird opinions coming out of the Ottoman Empire, probably due to politicial reasons. In short, I don't understand what your saying |

Akabireen deoband has very strong association with silsilsa naqshbandia. Aside from Mawlana Nanotwi and Gangohi, another founder of Dar al-Ulum Deoband, the Naqshbandi sufi master Shah Rafi al-Din al-Deobandi (ra) was a prominent khalifah of Shaykh 'Abd al-Ghani (ra). And the first Mufti of Dar al-Ulum Deoband and the teacher of the likes of Mufti Muhammad Shafi' (the father of Mufti Rafi Usmani and Mufti Taqi Usmani), Mufti Aziz al-Rahman (ra), was a khalifah of Shah Rafi al-Din hence a Naqshbandi shaykh in his own right. |

Couldn't agree with you more. The teachings of the Naqshbandi silsila - especially those of Imam Rabbani Mujaddid Alf Thani (ra) - have had a profound impact on the Deobandi maslak. I think the connection is very strong but many people don't know. Like you've mentioned that the founders of Dar al-Ulum Deoband were students of the Nashbandi sufi master and muhaddith, Shaykh 'Abd al-Ghani al-Dahlawi al-Mujadiddi al-Madani. And they weren't "just students" rather both Hujjat al-Islam Mawlana Qasim al-Nanotwi and Imam Rabbani Mawlana Rashid Ahmad Gangohi were the closest students of Shaykh 'Abd al-Ghani. In fact, Mawlana Rashid Ahmad Gangohi lived and studied at the Khanqah (yes the Naqshbandi khanqah) of Shaykh 'Abd al-Ghani in Dehli. interessting. Is there any biograohy on Shah Rafi al-Deen al-Deobandi Mujaddidi Naqshbandi ? Ive only ever heard very few stories about him. Imam Nanotwi once said about him that he was no difference in Mawlana Gangohi and Shah Rafi al-Deen except that the former was an Alim. (rahimahumuLlah) @sister reeha: I think maybe you havent understood the purpose of this thread. No one had even mentioned anything to do with non-Indian Hanafis or anything connected to that before your post, i honestly dont understand whey you brouht that up here. Maybe you should start your own thread for that discussion because (imo) what you say about some Indian/Pak/Bengali Hanafis thinking there are no other Hanafis in the world is quite true with some people; especially among those who actually live in the Ind subcontinent (as opposed to migrants to other countries). I think the reason is that the time when they (or anyone 4 that matter) gets exposed to the rest of the ummah the most is at the time of Hajj/Umrah where, inevitably, most of the ppl they meet/see are Arabs; and Arabs are mostly non-Hanafi. Mufti al-Kawthari also mentions something lyk this in a speech which is on youtube. |
