- My whole discussion is about Part 1 of the video
- NEVER ONCE have I said that Ulama of Deoband started a new sect separate and distinct from Ahlus-Sunnah Wal-Jamaat which is part 2 (refutation of the Jackass Engineer Mirza).
The whole discussion is about the label “Deobandi” and not eradicating “Deobandiyyat”
There are many many many many posts trying to explain the difference. This is precisely and exactly what Mufti Tariq Masood is saying below:
03FEB2019: "Deobandi" and "Deobandiyyat"?

Part 1:
These people always refer to a title and they say, “MuftiTariq Masood Deobandi” so are we propagating a sect are you?
Why do you keep saying “Deobandi, Deobandi” at every step?
Hazrat Mufti Taqi Usmani (HA) is a well-known, trusted and ascholar of global pedigree and stature. His stature is of such magnitude thatShaykh Hudaifi (HA) has studied from him but he does not write “Deobandi” inhis name. He is a scholar of Hanafi Madhab.
Hazrat Mufti Rafi Usmani (HA) states that once he wrote “Deobandi”next to his name, his father Mufti Shafi Usmani (HA) had it removed.
Have you seen a sign in front of my Mosque which states “HanafiDeobandi”? Jamia Masjid Al-Falahiyyah!
That’s it!
End of discussion!
The names of Mosques are so long that tails are elongated(by titles).
Thus, these people are infatuated and are caught bysectarianism. I have explained as to why Ulama are called “Deobandi” and I haveexplained in another video.
Part 2:
This respected brother has also stated in the thread thatUlama were called “Deobandi” from 1866 and they were something else beforethat. This is not the case they became known as “Deobandi” from 1866. We havebeen following the same Islam which came into India from the beginning, thesepeople became “Deobandi” in contrast to “Barelwee”. When the Aqaid and actionsof “Barelwees” deviated from Ahlus-Sunnah Wal-Jamaat in order to differentiatethese people became known as “Deobandees”
This brother is claiming that before 1866 there were peoplelike us because these was no “Deoband” and after 1866 these people like “MuftiTariq Masood” emerged because there was not even a name like “Deoband”
A simpler example is that of “Mushaf-e-Usmani”, if someonesays that a manuscript by this name did not exist because it only came into existenceafter Usman (RA) and before that it was our Qur’aan then we will call it absurdand we will say that the same Qur’aan merely got compiled and known as “Mushaf-e-Usmani”
Thus if the curriculum of Deoband (in 1866) had deviatedfrom Qur’aan and Sunnah then at least a few people would have objected butnobody did. Where were you Engineer Saheb? Were your fore-fathers asleep?
