CHK out this for some explanation on who these people are
DEOBANDIYYAT:-
In India the Islamic Knowledge spread through Shah
Wally-ul-Allah (R.A.) and his children. Amongst all the students who studied
under them were, Moulana Qasim Nanawtwee (R.A.), Moulana Rasheed Ahmad
Gangohi (R.A.) and Moulana Yacoob Nanawtwee (R.A.). These student who later
became great Ulama, founded an institution in U.P, Saharan poor, in a place
named Deoband. Those who qualified in this institution or they share the
same views as them or they are spiritually connected to them are known as
deobandies. They are all Ahlussunnah Wal Jamaa'ah and follow the Hanafi
school of thought. The distinguishing is factors of these Ulama are that
they make Tash'reeh (explain) the Qur'aan, Hadeeth and Fiqh according to the
method of the pious predecessors. They do not get affected by the conditions
around them, rather, they tackle all the innovations and non-Islamic customs
that have penetrated into the masses and try to eradicate them. They also
strive to revive the Sunnah and they challenge and stand firm against any
group that supports false hood and evil.'
BARAILWIYYAT:-
Barailwis are also Ahlussunnah Wal Jamaa'ah and they too
follow the Hanafi School of thought. This group is connected to an
institution in a place called Barailee. There respected Alim is Moulana
Ahmad Radaa Khan Sahib. He also opposed some innovations but practically
took part in them. He did not play a big role in trying to eradicate the
innovations; rather, he merely claimed to have love for Allah and Nabi
(Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) and the pious saints. He went so deep in this
that he finally uttered such things which were not permissible and were
against the Islamic believes e.g. Nabi (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) is the
knower of the unseen and he is Mukhtar'e Kul (he had the authority and
rights to do what ever he desired) , He use to present himself at the graves
of the pious saints and take vows on there names and so on. When the Ulama
of Deoband stood up against them in these matters, the Barailwees labelled
them as the enemies of Allah and his Nabi (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam), and
sometimes labelled them as the "WAHABEES".
WAHHAABIYYAT:-
Approximately 100 years back the deeni condition in Saudi
Arabia was not too good. There was lack of education and non-shar'i
practices were widespread. Innovations and customs were practiced with great
emphasise, very high graves were constructed and tawaaf was performed around them etc. In order to eradicate theses innovations and non-shar'i practices, a reformer by the name of Sheikh Abdul Wahhab Najdee (who was from a place named "najd" in Saudi Arabia) started the work of reformation by forming a group and advising people and also by using force at times. This group
demolished all the highly constructed graves and levelled them with ground
and also apposed the innovations and non-Islamic. This group is known as the
"Wahhabees". India also became the targets of these innovations and customs.
Ulamae Haq, who are the Ulama of Deoband, started apposing theses
innovations and customs. Also, theses were the same Ulama who fought against
the British. In order to instil enmity in the hearts of the masses of
Indo-Pak for the Ulama of Deoband, the British labelled these Ulama as the
Wahhabees. This was done so that the masses can reject and loose contact
with the Ulama just as how the Saudi's rejected the Wahhabee group of Ulama.
One should note that we (the Ulama of Deoband) do not agree in total with
the beliefs and actions of Sheikh Abdul Wahhaab Najdee. I have given you
brief description of each of the groups. If you require further information,
then you should refer to the book "IKHTILAAFE UMMAT AUR SIRAATE MUSTAQEEM"
of Moulana Yusuf Ludhyaanwe (R.A.) and "RAAHE SUNNAT" of Moulana Sarfaraaz
Safder (R.A.) and "AQAAID ULAME DEOBAND" of Moulana Abdushakur Tirmizi
(R.A.).

in reply to mr Bombastic. i agree with you. that is exactly what my dad said to me aswell BUT the problem starts when i want to take knowledge frm shaykhs or books. i mite pik up a book writtin by a qadiyanni n taking knowledge frm that. at the end of the day they claim to b muslim so why not jus take knowledge frm them. now me? i follow the Principles of Salafiyyah which makes me a salafi but its not that i want to start a group or become part of a group. its jus to differentiate between other groups. imagine goin to a mosque to listen to a talk which apparently is a Muslim mosque then when u walk in and sit down u realise you are in the mosque of The Nation os "Islam" then ul b thinkin why not jus say yr nation of islam!!

they make Tash’reeh (explain) the Qur’aan, Hadeeth and Fiqh according to the
method of the pious predecessors. They do not get affected by the conditions

QUESTION TO DEOBANDIS:-
Moulana Qasim Nanawtwee (R.A.)'s interpretation of ayat Khatame Nabuwwat in one of his books is exactly the same as Ahmadi’s believe in (meaning, Khatam doesn’t mean ‘Last’, rather it means ‘Seal’ or ‘Perfect’. And a zilli nabi can come under the shariat of Muhammad pbuh, and it doesn’t contradict khatamiyyat of AnHuzur pbuh). What do deobandis have to say about it?
listen brother and sisters. instead of sayings what this group does n what that group does.
why dnt we see which group is closest to the sunnah! which group is carrying the flag for Islam. which group is the Saved 1!
out of the 73 there will only b 1! the Prophet(saw) was asked which path it will b and he replied "it is what me n my companions are upon" in another narration it was "it is the jama'ah" (jama'ah meanin truth)
shall we all work to find out n research n see what are the principles of this path? i believe insha-Allah the way to b on the rite path is to follow the qur'aan and sunnah as it was at the time of the Prophet(saw). u see actions nowadays n think to yrslf,is there evidence for such practises? did the prophet(Saw) command us with such practises?
if not then we stay away!
wen people ask me what group im with. i dnt say. ahle hadith, or salafi(although i follow the principles which i believe evry1 shud) or anything. i say simply.......i represeant the Prophet(saw) and his companions who Allah favoured!
The fellow may have picked this from qadiyanis-any way i normally see this argument been putforward by mirzais--
As the web site is a qadiyani organ---i was not wrong after all---
