Islam
Muslim
Sunni
Shia
Madhab
hanafi
shafaii
hanbali
maliki
salafi
arab or non-arab ghair muqallids. a very general term for a ghair muqallid.may or may not be athari. but definitive feature is they do not do taqlid of one imam. other characteristics may vary region-wise
ahlehadith
indo-pak ghair muqallids. very aggressive. do not believe there is a necessity for fiqh and ahadith to be separate. they are NOT athari
Tableeghi
jamati islami
their ideology is considered deviant by ulema-e-haqq. brother umairel is correct about their political stance
jamati muslemeen
deobandi
barelwi
wahabi
arab salafis. they reject following one madhab in totality but their 'fiqh' is whatever coincides from the madhabs with sahih ahadith. lot of emphasis on hafiz ibn e taymiyyah, sheikh albani and on bidah and shirk. they DO NOT consider taqlid to be haram or shirk

@mh16388..i have one question off-topic..it seems u changed madhab from maliki to hanafi..

coreect me if i am wrong.

[sykanaxer]

Assalamu alaykum

Ahle-Quranist = The group which rejects the Ahadeeth and fiqh of Imams

Reason:

They claim Quran only is protected by Allah SWT.

Salafi, Ahle-Hadeeth, wahabi, jamaatul muslimeen = groups which reject the fiqh of Imams ( Reason: References are not provided by the Imams).

..if they follow Quran..then we should ask them..if they are following the ayat ...Wa atiullaha-wa atiurrasul[follow Allah swt. and his Rasool]

And they should also know that Deen is not complete without hadeeth...

Quranists are illogical and diseased so don't expect any good answer to your question.

don't be so hateful and disrespectful to Quranists...since they read Quran so u should be respecting them..

May Allah swt. forgive our sins..aameen!

jazakallah brother for correction.
i think no official deodandi stance about najdi/wahabis can be determined, opinions vary ulema to ulema among deobandis regarding them.

[sobre]

one more to add on the above list..


AhleQuranist


to be contd..

Qur'anist or Ahl Qur'an = Actually the right term is munkireen-e-hadith because their actual characteristic is rejection of the Prophetic hadith and through that, the rejection of Muhammad himself. Kafir group.

don't be so hateful and disrespectful to Quranists...since they read Quran so u should be respecting them..

"Whoever innovates or accomodates an innovator, then upon him is the curse of Allah, His angels and the whole of mankind." Bukhari and Muslim.
The innovator here is the innovator in beliefs such as the Qur'anist you want us to respect.

[sykanaxer]

Are Quranists found in indo-pak community..

no they dont. what i quote from is an officially approved book written at the behest of qari tayyab. the book basically says those who look down upon the sheikh are wrong and quotes a particular prominent scholar from deoband who changed his stance after reading the sheikh's books. however it is believed that the sheikh's followers over the ages developed an incorrect attitude towards other groups and also degenerated. Allahualam.

[Paul Bunyan]

yes
another color to this deviancy is the pervezi group
