Hazrat Thanavi RH reprimanded Khwaja Azizul Hasan RH because he did not mention Maulana Ahmad Raza Marhoom with due respect in a majlis. Janab Fawad Choudhury deserves the respect that is due to a common Muslim by not being referred to by a nickname he would be offended by.
I do not believe that we should criticise anything in Shariah at all.
You are taking the discussion in a different direction, I didn't say that he has become a Tableeghi, I just expressed surprise at a few tweets. I am sure that you can find a thousand others things which are blameworthy
No. I just asked you the question to confirm your position and it's perfect alhamdulillah.
Actually I was really pleased to read Fawad Chaudhry's tweets but that didn't last longer as I skimmed through some of his other tweets and realised that he's using Islam to further his own agenda as he has been opposing public execution and some other Islamic punishments.
He is still making a valid point, IMO. Those punishments that people are suggesting are out of the need for revenge and as an expression of hatred. That's hardly the point of punishment in Islam. Not only is there the aspect of justice for the victims, Islam also wants the criminal to be redeemed for the hereafter, as long as he/she is repentant about their crime.
Although the punishments being suggested are quite suited to a society like Pakistan's where it's the law of the jungle and people only yield to someone who treats them like animals of the jungle.

Does that mean that you start opposing Islamic punishments? Fawad Chaudhry is openly calling such punishments barbaric and uncivilized. He is using Qur'an to justify his point about DNA and witnesses etc and he is right about it but he is clearly going against the Qur'an here: youtu.be/g3uf-qYhjeQ
No he is saying that about public execution. And you're saying that public punishments are not in Shariah? What else is Allah ta'ala commanding in this verse then?
(24:2) Those who fornicate - whether female or male - flog each one of them with a hundred lashes. And let not tenderness for them deter you from what pertains to Allah's religion, if you do truly believe in Allah and the Last Day; and let a party of believers witness their punishment.
Public flogging and stoning to death are from Shariah, but setting a person on fire, castration are not exactly Shariah punishments. Which is what he is calling barbaric.
Like I said, it's highly likely he'd consider flogging and stoning as barbaric too but let's comment on that once he says it.
Shias are responsible for inciting Sunni emotions and they are representatives of Shaytaan instead of representatives of Nabi (Sallalaho Alaihe Wassallam), they are destroying the cohesion of Pakistani Nation
Have you seen the Shia replies to the clip of the Shia alim? He's being labelled a traitor. The divide runs deep. Looks like not too many Shia are in favor of peace with Ahlus Sunnah.
This cannot be undone and I am sure it will be greatly appreciated.
