deoband

Q: You may have heard of brother Mu'adh Khan from UK (aka Colonel). He has connection with Deobandi Ulama and is mostly well regarded. His latest idea or fad (call it what you will) is to do a TV Documentary on Deobandis in light of the media attack on Deobandis in the UK. He says he needs to do something for the Ummah right now and has requested sisters to come forward who wish to speak on camera. On his Twitter account he is moaning to Muftis that he can't get hold of any women for the documentary. Surely a TV programme involving at least the voice and possibly the face of a ghayr mahram is impermissible or am I missing some Fiqh that the self-styled scholar has tapped in to? Is this not a case of using batil means to spread the Haq?

Q: Barelwis say that deobandi ulama are kafir due to the statements mentioned below in their books. Please explain. I am very worried because I follow the Deobandi ulama.

1- Rasheed ahmed gangohi rehmatullah alleh neh apni kitab fataawa rashidia Mein likha hai.. "Allah tallah jhoot bol sakta hai" (nauz billah) fatawa Rashidiya part 1 pg 20

2- Ashraf ali thanvi rehmatullah neh apni kitab hafizul eiman mein likhahai Keh nabi sallah hoo alleh wasalam ka ilm aisa hai jaisey bachoon pagloo aur Janwaroo ko bhi hota hai (hifzul eiman page 8 ) nauz billah

3- Qasim nanthovi rehmatullah alleh neh apni kitab tehzeer ulnaas mein likha Hai agar koi nabi aajaey tau khatum nabuwat par koi faraq nahin parey ga.. Tehzeer naas pg 24 nauzbillah

4- Khalil ahmed ambbithwi neh apni kitab barheen qatiya mein likhta hai nabi Kareeh sallah hoo alleh wasallam sah zada ilm shitan ko hai ... Bahreen Qaatiya pg nbr 51-52 nauz billah

Q:

1. Many people say that the Deobandi founders like Shaykh Rashid Gangohi and others compare the knowledge of the Prophet to a madman. Please reply.

2. Salafies claim that deobandis do not consider the whole Quran Shareef as a speech of Allah. Is it true?
