well brother sunniseeker the deobandis come in all shapes and forms. The gulf between arab sufi ulema is also very wide. You have syed muhammad bin alawi al maliki rh praising shaykh muhammad ibn abdul wahab whilst others denounce him. You get dr wahba zuhayli against tasawur e shaykh, hadra etc (same for shaykh bouti) whilst others allow it. You get some like shaykh nuh keller who completely disallow shaking of the hands of ghair mahrams, emphasise niqab etc whilst some in morroco are totally against niqab and shake hands with ghair mahram. You get shaykh murabit al hajj db saying that a person can't be a shaykh without a beard whilst many of the syrian/morrocan sufi shaykhs muqadims mock those with a beard.

The ulema of deoband take different positions based on their own research and understanding.
