Sects

When you say Sunni, this is a vague word as it refers to all those who are not Shia! In this sense, yes,they are many sects and not all of them are from Ahlu Sunnah wal jamaah who follow the path of the Prophet salla allahu alaihi wa sallam and his companions. Praise be to […]

I am sorry to disturb you again, but i really need your guidance , as I have no one to guide me on this path. I feel blessed that i found your contact yesterday. I am in confusion for last one year and InshaAllah, i dont want to waste time, I am enrolled in an online Aalimah course , offered by an institute in Pakistan, called Zaynab academy. The heads of the institute are shaykh zulfiqar ahmed and shaykh kamaluddine ahmed. They Teach Quran, Hadith, Fiqh ( follow the madhab of Imam abu hanifa) and Arabic Language. This is a 5-6 year course and one who completes it gets a degree , and is given a title Aalim or Aalimah . I have learnt a lot during this one year Alhamdulillah. However my concern is that the shaykhs write deobandi and Naqshbandi in front of their names,saying that its just the name of institute where they received their Islamic educatin from, just like we call ourselves after the names of the universities we graduate from. Also they claim that their order of teaching is eventually descended down from Abu bakar Siddique and hence directly from Prophet Mohammed ( Peace and blessings of Allah SWT be upon him) , that is why it’s under the teachings of Ahle Sunnah wal Jamaáh. They also tell us to do daily “Muraqaba’ which is actually thinking about Allah SWT in our hearts, closing our eyes and let our heart say Allah Allah , and doing so will bring us closer to Allah SWT. They say that this act of Ibadah is proved by Quran , as is mentioned in Surah Muzammil verse18 ,or Surah Insaan verse 25 or Surah Aa’aala verse 1. Also they told us that 15th of Shaban is the night when Allah Subhanhu wa Taáala brings down the decree of people from Loh e Mahfoo to the first heaven and then on Laylatul Qadr , Allah SWT hands these matters to angels to bring them down to earth . So it’s a process that starts on 15th of Shaban and ends of Laylatul Qadr. They also say that Salat Tasbih is proved by Sahih Hadith from Abu Dawood’s narration. All their videos in which they advertise their upcoming online courses,they say that they teach the Islamic education under Ahle Sunnah wal Jamaáh but I am confused about this claim, as they write Deobandi and Naqshbandi infront of their names.These are a few websites which are operated by these shaykhs. http://www.zaynabacademyonline.org/ [1] [1] http://tasawwuf.org/ [2] [2] http://www.zaynabacademy.org/tag/tazkya/ [3] [3] I really want to get the authentic Islamic Education , learn Arabic and learn the meaning and explanation of Quran along with Fiqh. I thought that zaynab academy online is the answer to my dua, but now I am confused that weather I should continue with their course or not? If I should leave their institute, then could you please recommend an online institute for getting Islamic education , where I could learn Quranic Arabic and Hadith. JazakAllah Khayran, and I pray that May Allah Subhanahu wa taáala always keep you among his chosen ones. aameen

I don’t open links, but if they are proud of following these two deviant sects, you shouldn’t be with them.

Praise be to AllahThe Khawaarij (Kharijites) are one of the deviant sects, as is proven by the texts and by scholarly consensus. Al-Bukhaari (6934) and Muslim (1068) narrated that Yusayr ibn ‘Amr said: I said to Sahl ibn Hunayf: Did you hear the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) say anything about […]

I am a follower of Hanafi sect. Today, I performed my salah behind a Shia imam (He is a fellow student at my university). Is this is ok to perform salah behind a shia imam? My other friend told me it is not fine to perform salah behind a shia muslim.

As long as you don’t know anything that nullifies islam from this individual, your prayer is valid!

The Aqeedah of Hizb-ut-Tahrir is deviated. We read sheikh Albaani’s opinion regarding them but we did not understand much. Can we please get some references regarding this matter?

I only have Arabic references.In short, they are like the Mo’atazilah in that they apply their logic over the verses and ahadeeth. They reject the coming of Isa, peace be upon him and also the torment in the grave. They have weird fatwas such as the permissibility in watching nude photos, shaking hands and even […]

Is it permissible to study Arabic and Tajweed with a Sheikh who is an imam at a deobandi masjid (or any other deviant sect for that matter)?

It is best not to as he will insert some of his innovation into his teachings without you knowing it.

I am an Indian from Kerala(South India).I am studying right now in Gujarat( it comes in middle of India). So this is a thing that I’ve seen common only in Kerala.There are these four group in kerala. 1. They call themselves ‘Sunii’. But they have this praying to grave , prophets etc. So I clearly understood its against the path of islam 2. they call themselves ‘Mujahid’. They were once called “wahabis” in Kerala. 3. Jamaate- Islaami , this group made by Abul A’ala Moudoodi . 4. Thableegh If a speaker is giving any speech about Islam he will from either one of them.Maybe hardly one or two people I’ve heard their speech who doesnot belong to any group.And I have seen some extremist people in this group has problems inside them against other groups. Like when it comes to marriage people will think twice when marrying to family in other groups even thought they are muslims One thing I’m happy about Islam in the West is I havent seen any problems between the speakers or da’ees. So my Question is What should I do or where should I join . And also it feels like to me that if I am joining any in future it will be like dividing the Ummah right? What should I do.
