You often see so much hate for ‘Barelvies’ on ithe nternet and in real life, especially from people who follow the Saudi style Wahabi doctrine, but how was Ahmad Raza Khan Barelvi as a religious leader? I am under an impression that he made significant contributions towards the advancement of Islam in South Asia.

This hatred is not limited to internet. carrying his translation of Quran in a Deo-bandi madarsa is considered a sin. Telling you my personal experience. I took his translation to Deo-Ban madrsa during Hifz e Quran and I was told never bring that to the Madarsa. I got ‘Qasas ul Anbiya’ probably compiled by a Barelvi scholar. When I told someone in Madarsa that I’m reading that they asked to give them for reading. That was never returned back to me and based on response when I demanded back the book, I got a gut feeling that it might got burnt or torn. I got audio cassette of Umm e Habiba’s naat and that met the same fate as ‘Qasas ul Anbiya’ through same process.

I’m not a fan of Imam Raza Barelvi especially due to his instructions for fateha.

But again that doesn’t negate his contribution for Islam.
