various 'schools' of thought in Islam

Yes again some of these are the case … I also agree that Barelvis are orthodox, but I also state that they specifically gathered momentum as a reactionary group to Deobandis and that is why Sh Ahmad Raza Khan (RA) is credited for being the founder … Just see the mark in historical timeline to get my point.

I am not neutral in view … The accusation that Deobandis are Wahabis needs to be cleared. There is no connection the sets of scholars are very different … Only certain concepts are shared by accident between them … Historically they started in a similar time quite independently from one another in different locations.

I would like the Deobandi ulema to remove some of the concepts they have in their books … For example … The suggestion that Allah (SWT) can lie … This idea is not from the Salaf.

In terms of what I understand about avoiding fanaticism … It is my belief to be a certain way … However not to hold others in contempt for not being that way as they might have their reasons for their beliefs … And they may be in a transition to guidance and my judgementalism may be the cause of sending them away from my position. So I would sooner say something is erroneous than call someone a kafir or outside of Ahl-us-Sunnah wal-Jamaa’.

By the way I believe Sh. Asrar Rashid is friends with Sh. Yaseen … Who is a senior mureed of my Shaykh, I believe I have met Sh. Rashid in person a few times.
