I think his extreme views against wahabis/ aale saud regeme cause criticism.
He is traditional sunni scholar, and his beliefs look more close to beralvis.

Salaam brother.
If you don't mind me asking what are his extreme views against Wahabi's/Saudi regime?
What makes you say his beliefs are close to Barelvis?

[BundEnhamma]

Wa AlaykumuSalaam,

I do know that he also dislikes Tableegh: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GdnA92OWh68 (Watch from 7 minutes)

[TorryJens]

the guy bashes square pegs into round holes.

he claims without any logic, sense or evidence that dajjal is in the UK.

when asked if dajjal is in the UK then why did the Prophet say that dajjal is in the east, he then claims without any logic, sense or evidence that dajjal was in a different dimension when the Prophet said this.

i cant believe people even take him seriously. people should be warned away from him.

[Karensmith]

doesnt he believe that USA (was), UK (is) and Israel (will be) are the Dajjal and Gog and Magog are the people living in some country right now??? correct me if i am wrong...

Asslamo Allaikum,

"Maulana" Imran Hosein studied in Karachi and was Bayt to Dr Israr Ahmed (RA) and then he moved away from Dr Israr Ahmed (RA).

He is very similar to Dr Israr Ahmed (RA) in his views with the main exceptions being:

a) "Maulana" Imran Hosein practises the Qadri Chishti Silsila and practises Tassawuff while Dr Israr Ahmed (RA) had no Tareeqa. I have no idea who gave him Khilafah and who is his Shaykh.

b) "Maulana" Imran Hosein is Barelwee leaning while Dr Israr Ahmed (RA) was very Deobandi leaning. Please note that I am not saying that he is "Barelwee" but he is Barelwee leaning BUT he does criticise Barelwees a lot and makes fun of them

Some examples where "Maulana" Imran Hosein differs with our Ulama, actually Ulama of the whole world

a) He thinks Yajuj/Majuj are the White European (Jews) while Shaykh Maulana Ashraf Ali Thanwi (RA) has thoroughly refuted this idea in the last book of his life entitled, "Al-Bawadirun-Nawadir". For examples of "Maulana" Imran Hosein views read "Jerusalem in the Qur'aan"

b) He thinks that the Island where Dahjjal is chained up is UK while our Ulama say "Allah knows best"... How can Britain be the Island refered to in Hadeeth when Rasul-ullah (Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam) said Dajjal is "East of Madina" and last time I checked Britain is not "East of Madina". For examples of "Maulana" Imran Hosein views watch his videos on Dajjal


c) He thinks that Dajjal is already out while almost ALL Ulama believe that Dajjal is YET to emerge. For examples of "Maulana" Imran Hosein views watch his videos on Dajjal

d) He thinks that Paper currency is Haram while Mufti Taqi Usmani (DB) and others differ with him. For examples of "Maulana" Imran Hosein views watch his videos on "Islamic Monetary System"


Other then these weird and wacky ideas "Maulana" Imran Hosein has some good political insight and his thoughts about Monetary system and Dajjal are very good to read and interesting...

But on a thorough discussion on Dajjal and end times I recommend reading the latest "Dajjal" books by "Maulana Asim Umer" which are currently being translated into English by people in Karachi.

Maulana Asim Umer's thorough research has been summarised by "Mufti Abu Lubaba Shah Mansoor" who is the Khalifah of Shaykh (Mufti) Rasheed Ahmed Ludhyanwi (RA) and currently at Jamia Rasheediya (Karachi) and I believe that the book is available for free (in English) on the web or about to be finished. Brother TN007 on Sunniforum is co-ordinating the translation work.

His views are interesting... I think he is on the spot on most of his current affairs and geo political analysis and his views on the monetary system are bang on and a MUST WATCH for every one... On Dajjal he seems to be the most active scholar, as for his views on the hadith that states Dajjal is in east, i belive in those time of SAW, the directions use to be oppersite of what they are today i.e west was east, east was west, north was south, south was north.
I dont belive in the theories of Dajjal being a super human or jinn, but have my own analysis, which is Dajjal refers to the system of Riba and a big group of people running the world which are the Zionists. However i believe his theories on Gog and Magog are spot on.

As for him, he was trained by Dr Fazlur Rahman Ansari of Karachi

looking at his stuff he seems to be very pro-taliban and claims that for over a year he was trying to persuade the Taliban to abandon paper money, return to Gold Dinar and call all Islamic countries to establish a Khilafat and that a few months before 9/11 he succeeded in persuading the Taliban to do it.

what do you base your belief on that the directions were opposite to what they were now?

what does that even mean that the directions were opposite? is there a difference between north and south? is there a difference between east and west? apart from the difference in names obviously.

besides, according to hussain, the directions were the same as now. but according to him dajjal was in a different dimension when Prophet said he is in the east. what does hussain base this conclusion on?

I dont belive in the theories of Dajjal being a super human or jinn, but have my own analysis, which is Dajjal refers to the system of Riba and a big group of people running the world which are the Zionists. However i believe his theories on Gog and Magog are spot on.

so how do you reconcile the hadith of tamim ad dari who told the Prophet that he saw the dajjal and talked to the dajjal?

and how do you reconcile the hadith about yajuj majuj that they will number 90% (please clarify this figure) of the people of jahannum. if that is the case then where is this HUGE numbers of people?

these are just a couple of hadith that mention dajjal and yajuj majuj. there are many more. your opinions regarding them should not contradict hadith.

..........and that a few months before 9/11 he succeeded in persuading the Taliban to do it.

can you post some links for this as i have never heard of this before.

[VoriEremiagem]

i cant believe people even take him seriously. people should be warned away from him.

some correct some maybe not so,as any other human being,

is he wrong here?

"He thinks that Paper currency is Haram " that is a BIG BIG BIG pointer that he is on the right path. Whichever person in a position of islamic authority, peer, ulema etc.. who asks/accepts monetary donations for himself is FAKE. e.g. if an imam asks for x amount (reasonable) for nikah that is o.k. but same imam says give me x amount I will do dua for you=fake/non-muslim.

Wallah, Alhumdullilah. it's quite hard to break free of the illusion of the reality of money in our modern world, even the most educated ulema of our times are unaware of this aspect of things. i only know becasue I was obsessed with illumanati/freemason (they don't technically exist).

One big clue to the above is the current/recent banking crisis. Also the USA the richest country is nearly $15,000,000,000,000 ($15 trillion)in debt. think about it.

think more....Arabia under control of the ibn saud family (saudi arabia) is in debt of about $85 billion, this is more than countries like pakistan, bangladesh and south africa. I wonder if this debt is without interest. i doubt it. but that's ok they are "non-bidatees".

Imran Hosein himself says his methodoligy in his interpretation of such hadith is to concentrate on symbolism while other ulema take hadith related to the end of days literally.

You have to understand that for example many modern/futuristic concepts would be quite hard to explain at the time of the prophet(pbuh) without symbolism.

it's funny how people are trying to lump him into a certain group so they know how to attack him.

I have listen to a couple more of his lectures on youtube and I agree with you...I feel he is right on with many things.May Allah continue to protect him.Ameen

[leyliana]

This guy makes a LOT of weird interpretations...

Read this:
http://www.imranhosein.org/faq/55-si...re-vision.html

He says that a hadeeth that describes an event is actually describing a dream (!) without any supporting evidence from other ahadeeth but from his own faulty rationalizing - which itself is based on hypotheticals and theories! How can anyone trust such a person?

[CreativeSuiteDown]

He really does not make sense in most of the issues.

[WordofViagra]

Guys why dont actually quote what he says and be more accurate? alot of stuff is incorrect. A lot of what he says makes sense. and regarding his own opinions he always states that is infact only that "his opinion and could be wrong"

regarding Gog and Magog. What he says does make sense to be honest but would need to be looked into further. and Hadiths are open to interpretation everyone these days has an opinion so whos right and whos wrong? you back it up authentically and its a strong case but not the definitive answer its good to have dialogue and discussion.

If you dont agree with the man dont listen and take it all in. his background into History is quite strong as to how the Caliphate fell etc. But go research it yourself.

[picinaRefadia]

(4:160-161) Because of the wrongdoing of the Jews We forbade them good things which were (before) made lawful unto them, and because of their much hindering from Allah's way (sabeelillah). And of their taking usury when they were forbidden it, and of their devouring people's wealth by false pretences. We have prepared for those of them who disbelieve a painful doom.
.................................

With at most respect, I would like our contemporary Scholars to give explanation as to why we are being deprived of our rightful wealth overnight ; why we pay more today for the same set of items than we paid last year. Why we lose our wealth when we don't have any say in decision making matters.

I would also like to know as to how our Scholars explains/interprets the A'yaats posted above (4:160-161) i.e the connection of "wrongdoing of Jews" with "devouring people's wealth by false pretences"

Having understanding of economics/money etc., i believe the analysis/opinion of Maulana Imran Hosein on paper currency makes sense.

I am sorry to say but his books on the dajjaal are a joke. They should never be even considered to translate. Too much fantasy out there.

What sort of "interpretation" is it when you disregard ahadeeth as mere dreams based on no evidence from the narrations themselves but based on a posteriori logic??

[TravelMan]

do you mean that the book about dajjal by Mufti Abu Lubaba shah mansoor is a "joke"?

[JonatonM]

I am sorry to say but his books on the dajjaal are a joke. They should never be even considered to translate. Too much fantasy out there.

I have read all the books of Maulana Asim Umar and Mufti Abu Lubaba Shah Mansoor ; i would not call these books as jokes rather i would appreciate that atleast our contemporary Scholarship is awakening to the realities though i don't agree with everything written in these books.
