When someone asks you a question, you answer it plainly as Allah has commanded but it is not my identity. My identity which Allah Ta'ala has assigned me is "Muslim"

[3:19] Truly, the (recognized) religion in the sight of Allah is Islam . Those who have been given the Book did not differ (among themselves) until after the knowledge had come to them, (and all this) due to envy against each other. Whoever denies the verses of Allah, then, Allah is swift at reckoning.

[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!
Question: Which Madhab do you follow?
Muadh Khan: I follow the Hanafi Madhab
But do you introduce yourself as
?
I know that you are intelligence enough to grasp what is being said in plain language but your Nafs simply cannot let this go, so carry on.
That is exactly why you remain STUPID! Because you never bother reading or listening to anything in detail. It is NOT FROM ME but from Mufti Rafi Usmani (HA) so LISTEN before opening your BIG MOUTH! Perchance some knowledge may get inside your head if you spend some time trying…

Barelwee vs Deobandi divide is not from Salaf it is from 1866…NONE OF THOSE who established Deoband actually officially called themselves Deobandees.
“Salafi†is an identity never used in this Ummah.
“Muhammadi†is an identity never used in this Ummah but given by the British.
The British also coined the terms “Muhammadan, Mosalman and Wahabiâ€
All of the above are deliberately and tactfully invented by enemies of Islam because they want to splinter and splinter and splinter….
Next time, BEFORE ASKING bother to read! Your second question in less then an hour which is already answered
si tacuisses, philosophus mansisses
Ask Allah Ta'ala because this is what Allah Ta'ala told me in the Qur'aan:

I have checked and I have answered this multiple times to you, would you like to admit ignorance that you did not understand it and start again?
If you are sincere, we can have this discussion all day all night, if you are irked and emotional then have Mercy on my time and save me the hassle because I have already answered it.
I have understood your point of view (loud and clear) that in your country it is associated with an “identityâ€â€¦I also know your position that you don’t consider anyone a disbeliever or outside of Ahlus-Sunnah Wal Jamaat.
The problem in simple language which Mufti Rafi Usmani (HA) is explaining in plain and simple English that it is NOT AN IDENTITY…Even if is used in your circles.
People call Shaykh Ali Hajwairi (RA) “Data Ganj-Baksh†and commonly but he is NOT “Dataâ€â€¦Allah Ta’ala is my “Dataâ€; does not matter that his title is popular and unambiguously understood
Just an illustration.
There is NO SUCH THING as “Deoband†or “Deobandi†for you as a laymen…Doesn’t matter how many Nasheeds you listen to or how many flags you wrap yourself around. It is NOT an identity, I am not saying it, Mufti Rafi Usmani (HA) is saying it.
If according to now defunct discussion about “Ravian†is brought up again, it still DOES NOT apply to you because DU Deobandi is not your Alma matter.
So I get that your Nafs is hurting but cross questioning again and again and asking “this or that†DOES NOT absolve you from answering.
In the eyes of Shariah, you are making a CLAIM that you are “DEOBANDIâ€, it is your responsibility to justify it and NOT MINE to answer your roundabout questions again and again, just stated differently because your brain cannot grasp it.
The issue is raised by someone who is Native of Deoband and is a “Deobandi†and also happens to be the Grand-Mufti so if some XYZ (Shaykh or Maulana) says it; it does not make it right.
Your (Islamic) defence: Allah Ta’ala has obligated you to make Taqleed so you can say that that I am making Taqleed of Maulana Ilyas Ghumaan (HA) and calling myself “Deobandi†fair enough but then you are a Muqallid and you obviously are not knowledgeable or articulate enough to give any reasons. Importantly, you are a Muqallid so you SHOULD NOT be giving reasons but if you are sincere and want to continue, please continue I don’t mind having this discussion all day and all night for the sake of sincerity.
So you can say:
I cannot argue with that from an Islamic point of view from Taqleed perspective as it is your choice...
Has Mufti Rafi Usmani (HA) said that anywhere?
How do we lay people differentiate which Ulama we consult and adhere to since there are different groups of people in the world with different khiyaalaat in aqeedah. Saying deobandi makes it clear which Ulama we consult and follow in every day life as Muslims.
Answered it so many times and answered it in your second last question but let’s start again.
We are having an Academic discussion…
Deoband is NOT a sect, cult, group, identity of any kind so you cannot say that you are a “Deobandi†because no unique or separate definition exists.
Deoband is a town in India where many Ulama happened to graduate from.
You CANOT have an identity which is not unique.
There are Islamic Institutions which offer classes of Fiqh such as “Tahara according to Hanafi Madhab†and “Tahara according to Shaf’ae Madhab†so at this time you can take a class according to your Madhab because these are differentiating factors.
If you are in university and someone asks you which Madhab do you follow you say, “I am Hanafi†because it is an established differentiating factor. There is reason for you to differentiate and reason for you to distinguish yourself.
Deoband is NOT.
Read Part 1 and disagree with facts. If you disagree THEN tell me the distinguishing factors of “Deobandi†and quote me sources of it…Take “Hanafi†as an example (although remember that I wrote about that as well but for the sake of argument let's go with that...)
Let’s exhaust part 1 and then we move to later parts...
P.S: Let us discuss in sequence.
I get what you are explaining but you have skipped the question…
What is “Deobandiâ€? Hypothetically, let’s agree that being “Hanafi†is an identity so you are “Hanafiâ€.
What is “Deobandi� Where are the principles of being “Deobandi†written? Where is it written that a person has have such and such Aqeedah to be “Deobandi� Remember that you are making a “claim†so it is up to you to clearly define the matter before any other discussion.
Example: “I am Hanafiâ€
Explanation: “I follow the Madhab of Imam Abu Haneefa (RA)â€
Understood and clear! So what is “Deobandi�
This cannot be undone and I am sure it will be greatly appreciated.
Please wait...
