What's the difference between Deobandi, Sunni and Barelwi? What are their beliefs?

Question

Thanks

Answer 1

Barelwi claims that they are sunni, but mostly they are grave worshippers and seek help from deads.

Answer 2

Sunni[Ahlus Sunnah wal-Jamaa'h] are those who Follow Qur'an and Authentic Sunnah.sunnis have 4 Great Fiqh School. Hanbali , Shafi`i ,Hanafi,Maliki.

Deobandi : deobandis "Aqeedah," originates from 'Sufis" and believes on "Kufr".Deobandis claim them self to be sunni Hanafis.because they Follow some of the fiqh of Abu Hanifa.In reality they are not sunni Hanafis.

Barelvi:Is a movement of Sufism in South Asia that was founded by Ahmed Raza Khan of Bareilly, India.these people also follows some of the Fiqh teaching of Abu Hanifa.So,they too claim as Sunni Hanafi.They too believes on "Kufr".

Answer 3

Deobandis and Barelwis claim to be Sunni Muslims.

Deoband is a town in North India that is considered the seat of Sunni Islam in India and which educates Islamic scholars.  They follow the Hanafi school of fiqh and a mostly conservative interpretation of Islam.

Barelwi is a town in West India that churns out scholars who mostly beleive in intercession between Allah and His subjects via grave worship, saints, etc.  Many of their beliefs are considered by the mainstream ulema to be outright shirk and pure bid'ah.

I leave it to you to research further about them and come to your own conclusions.

Answer 4

its best to be MUSLIM ,,and not sunni,brelvi,shia,etc..

brelvis and deobandis are subset of sunniism.

another conjecture and fabrication of hadith books and that is Intercession

[2:48] Beware of the day when no soul can avail another soul, no intercession will be accepted, no ransom can be paid, nor can anyone be helped.

[39:44] Say, "All intercession belongs to GOD." To Him belongs all sovereignty of the heavens and the earth, then to Him you will be returned.

[6:51] And preach with this (Quran) to those who reverence the summoning before their Lord - they have none beside Him as a Lord and Master, nor an intercessor - that they may attain salvation.

[74:48] The intercession of the intercessors will never help them.

[74:49] Why are they so averse to this reminder?

[74:50] Running like zebras.

Answer 5

Astufiralallh look there is only one path to jannah that is to obey allah and his phrofit.

Glory be to allah ,Aslmualkum

Answer 6

The Deobandi is a Sunni Islamic revivalist movement which started in British India to protect the Muslims and their faith. Deobandis follow the fiqh of Abu Hanifa.

Barelwis are more to sufism and their rituals associated with graves of saints and many forms of Shirks. They are more to celebrations than practicing Islam from it's authentic sources.

Barelvis in India call Deobands as Wahhabis and some of the Arabs call Deobandes as deviated Soofis. The truth is that the University of Deoband was founded by a group of Indian ‘ulamaa’ (scholars) after the British had put a stop to the Islamic revolution in India in 1857 CE. Its establishment was a strong reaction against western advancement and its materialistic civilization in the Indian Subcontinent, aimed at saving the Muslims from the dangers of these circumstances, especially when Delhi, the capital, had been destroyed following the revolution and the British had taken full control of it. The scholars feared that their religion might be assimilated, so Shaykh Imdaadullaah al-Muhaajir al-Makki and his student Shaykh Muhammad Qaasim al-Nanatuwi, and their companions, drew up a plan to protect Islam and its teachings. They thought that the solution was to establish religious schools and Islamic centers, thus al-Madrasah al-Islamiyyah al-Arabiyyah was established in Deoband as a center for Islam and Sharee’ah in India at the time of British rule.

The most prominent figures of this intellectual school:

1- Muhammad Qaasim

2- Rasheed Ahmad al-Kankoohi

3- Husayn Ahmad al-Madani

4- Muhammad Anwaar Shah al-Kashmiri

5- Abu’l-Hasan al-Nadvi http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syed_Abul_H...

6- Al-Muhaddith Habeeb al-Rahmaan al-A’zami

Note that Shaikh Abul Hasan Ali Nadwi (r.a) was a great scholar who was one of accepted scholar world wide by all scholars of Ahlu-Sunnah.

In 1963 he delivered many lectures in Jamia Islamia Madina Munawara which were published by the name of "Al Nabuwatu wal-anbiya-o-fee zauil-Quran" and was made editor in chief of Nida-e-Millet, and an advisor on the Urdu journal ‘Tameer-e-hayat’

He was invited by education minister of Saudi Arabia in 1968 to participate in the critical study of the curriculum and system of the department of Sharia. He delivered many lectures in Riyadh University and Department of teaching

He was in the editorial board of the Arabic Journal "Al-Zia" of Nadwatul Ulama in 1932 and the Urdu journal Al-Nawa 1940 and published an Urdu Journal Tameer in 1948 and took the responsibility of editorial of a journal from Damascus in 1959. He was the chief controller of all the above papers which were published from Nadwa

Many of his notable works which are translated into English include: Path to Medina, Western Civilization: Islam and Muslims, and Saviours of Islamic Spirit.

In 1956 he was made visiting member of Arabic Academy Damascus. At the first inaugural session and foundation of World Muslim League in Mekkah Mukarama in which His Royal Highness the King of Saudi Arabia Saud Bin Abdul Aziz and King of Libya Idris Sanussi were present. Hazrat Maulana performed the duties of secretary at that session.

At the inauguration and foundation of Madina University Madina, he was made the member of the advisory council and remained as member till the administration was changed, and was a Foundation member of the League of Islamic Universities.

In 1980s, he was made a Member of Arabic Academy of Jordan, won the King Faisal Award, became Chairman of Islamic Centre Oxford, was given an Honorary Degree of Ph.D. bny Kashmir University awarded and was appointed as Chairman by Adab Islamic

In 1999 was awarded Dubai International Holy Quran award by the government of Dubai. Special arrangments were made through sending a personal plane to bring him to the award cermoney which was held in Dubai. He also won the Sultan Brunei Award by Oxford Islamic Center on his work of ‘Tareekh Dawat-o-Azeemat’

So Deoband is an School of scholars which Ahlu Sunna agree with. May be many of their teachings are dis-agreed with other scholars of Ahlu-Sunnah and can be debated. But you will see those declare them  with Kufr and Shirk are those people who go into extreme in religion who have an easy way of declaring Kufr with all those who are not up to their standards.  We all must be united in Islam and upon the truth.

Answer 12

Brelwis commit shirk, they are not from Ahlus Sunnah nor from Ahlul Qiblah.

The Brelvis in light of Ahlus Sunnah:

"The Aqaa’id of this sect can commonly be found in Sufism in other countries. Even in this age of ours Aqaa’id like beseeching other than Allaah or to make Mannats in their names is famous and can commonly be found. Barailwees have taken such Aqaa’id that are full of Shirk and un-Islamic customs and have organized them and have formed themselves in a form of sect."

Deobandis are Soofees who implemented beliefs from the Chistis and Naqshabandis and Shaadhilees. Their Aqeedah is Maatireedee and their Fiqh is "Hanafee" (as they claim). They have many errors in Aqeedah and Usool, but takfeer is not made of them like the Brelwis.
