What authority do I need to call him Shia? His own words are enough to prove that.
By the way Ulama have used much harsh words for him.
Our loyalties are with the Sahaba of Rasulullah صلی الله عليه وسلم, not with any alim from 21st century who is always looking for ways to discredit and disparage the Sahaba رضی الله عنهم.
I have asked brother abuzayd2k to post his retraction. I opened the thread to know if he has retracted and repented from all that he said about Sayyiduna Abu Huraira RA and other Sahaba.
There is no fatwa of shia here. Maulana Ilyas Ghuman has called it an act of fisq. We agree with this moderate fatwa. Maulana salman Nadvi lacked decency while speaking of Hazrath Abu Huraira RA.
But by broadcasting that audio, we are inviting trouble; people will look into what is told about Hazrath Abu Hurairah RA. Even I was not aware of what Maulana Salman Nadvi said about Hazrat Abu Huraira RA.
Members have problems with me calling him Shia but they don't have any problems with their dear Maulvi Sahab disrespecting the Sahaba of Rasulullah صلی الله عليه وسلم. Allahul musta'an.
When you had not listened to this speech and his other speeches regarding Sayyiduna Muawiya RA and other Sahaba RA and you weren't aware of his stance then it was very unfair on your part to speak against the title I gave him.
If these speeches were delivered by a scholar of any other group, you all would be speaking against him. Tells me about the double standard of Deobandis.
It definitely did arouse my curiosity as to what possessed an aalim to speak like this about Sahaba رضي الله عنه? Like what secret daleel has he stumbled upon that none of the others ever had before?
This cannot be undone and I am sure it will be greatly appreciated.
