Mufti-e-Azam Pakistan Mufti Rafi Usmani (HA) on being Deobandi!

I have an idea for you for Assistant Professor Saheb,

You can try calling yourself what Allah Ta'ala has called you instead of sticking to a term from 1866. How does that sound to you? 

Loading Qur'aan Verse

[22:78] Struggle for (seeking the pleasure of) Allah, a struggle that is owed to Him. He has chosen you and did not impose any hardship on you in the religion, the faith of your father Ibrahim. He (Allah) named you as Muslims earlier and also in this (Qur‗an), so that the Messenger becomes a witness to you, and you become witnesses to (other) people. So establish Salah, pay Zakah and hold fast to Allah. He is your patron. So, how excellent He is as a patron, and how excellent as a supporter!

Conclusion (from me):

If you have survived 29 pages of swipes in this thread, it would not have escaped your attention that not a single person claiming to be a “Deobandi” has given a definition of “Deobandi” in 29 pages. They have swiped, they have insulted, they have abused, they have tried to spin but they have spectacularly failed in defining “Deobandi”.

Nevertheless, there is a bigger failure in this thread which represents two individuals:

1. Maripat Saheb: He wishes to provide intellectual solutions to the problems of Muslims particularly those in India. Yet, in a country of close to 80% Non-Muslims, he has no problems identifying himself with a sectarian label and then have no issues with an even tighter label of “Deobandi Hanafi Hayati”
2. Sipraomer Saheb:  He wishes to provide practical solutions to the problems of Muslims and believes in brining back Khilafah. The fundamental cornerstone of Khilafah is that sovereignty belongs to Allah Ta’ala, once again this person has no issues in identifying himself with a label 

This is different to people saying that “I follow Ulama of Deoband”. The issue in this thread is the label “Deobandi” which is separate and distinct from “following Ulama of Deoband”

Once you have adopted a “label”, psychologically your entire point of view changes no matter what you profess (from your tongue).

It is psychological conditioning and this is what Mufti Rafi Usmani (HA) is saying by expressing his position.

If you cannot see that while living in a country with 80% Non-Muslims, then nothing can make you understand it.

If you cannot see that while calling for Khilafah for "Muslims", then nothing can make you understand it.
