How much "Deobandi" someone is is determined by how closely he follows what the akabireen of Deoband did. If a Deobandi decides to take part in hadra, then he is not representing Deobandis. If a Deobandi organizes mawlid celebrations or approves of them, then he is not representing Deobandis. Those who stick to what the akabireen have taught, he is a true Deobandi.

The differences that exist amongst Deobandis are differences you'll find amongst non-Deobandi (and even non-Salafi) scholars as well.
Salaam,

One thing I would like to know more about is the positions of the elders of the Deobandi elders like Haaji Imdadullah (qs) and Mianji Nur Muhammad (qs) and whether or not they were on the Deobandi maslak.

I would call and many would call Mufti Muhammad bin Adam a deobandi, he took part in mawlid in Tarim, and Mufti Taqi Usmani visited Shaikh Nuh's qibla institute (the physical sunnipath) and was happy with what they were doing there.

Shaikhul Hadith Muhammad Zakariyya was close to Sayyid Shaikh Muhammad Alawi al-Maliki, and I'm sure he knew that he attended mawlid and such. Now some deobandis have called him an deviant, which to me turned me completely off the whole sub-continent.
