English Book: Deoband to Bareilly - The TruthDaryabadi, on 457 Of his book Hakeemul Um-mat.He writes: "Maulana Thanvi's fatwa has been published and Maulana Shiblee Nu'maani and Maulana Hameedud-deenFaraahi have become polytheists, and since the madrisah (religious school) carries on the mission of both of them,Madrisat Ul-lslaah is a school of polytheism and evil, so much so that even the 'Ulama participating in the meetings ofthis madrisah themselves become atheistic and irreligious."After reading this fatwa, Janab Abdul Maajid Daryabadi wrote a detailed letter to Thanvi Sahib in which he pleaded forShiblee Nu’maani and Hameedud-deen Faraahi, saying that both of them not only used to say their Namaaz regularlybut also used to say Tahajjud (late night Namaaz and were very virtuous and learned men.To this, Thanvi Sahib replied: "All these are acts and conditions, and beliefs are some thing different from them.Correct beliefs can go with evil deeds and conditions and wrong beliefs and conditions can go with correct conditionsand deeds. --Hakeemul Um-mat, page 476.At another place, the same Thanvi Sahib writes: "Even if-an irreligious person were to talk about religion, such talkwill still be laced with darkness and his writings will also have the same trait. So, keep away from the company ofmen who have strayed from religion, and, also, do not ever read books written by them. This, because reading ofbooks has the same effect as keeping the company of their authors, and reading of books written by an irreligiousperson has the same effect as keeping his company." Kamaalaat-i-Ashrapyah, page 68.Now, just see, what status this Thanvi Sahib holds in the eyes of the TabIeeghi Jamna’at.The founder-of the TabIeeghi Jamna’at, Muhammad Ilyaas Sahib says: "Hazrat Maulana Thanvi Sahib hasaccomplished a great feat. I only wish the teachings would be his and the manner of disseminating them be mine,and, thus, his teachings would become popular." Malfoozaot, Page 57).The founder of the TabIeeghi Jamna’at himself has revealed that the purpose of founding it and of its dissemination(Tableegh) is to popularise Thanvi Sahib's teachings. It is apparent from this that Ashraf Alee Sahib is the basis of theideology of the TabIeeghi Jamna’at.The same Thanvi Sahib says that "acts and conditions" are different things, and "beliefs" are quite distinct from them.And this explanation is also given when he writes that wrong acts and conditions do not necessarily flow from wrongbeliefs.This means that a person who has wrong beliefs and is irreligious can be devoted to Namaaz and a person who doesnot say Namaaz can hold right beliefs.He has made it clear that a man's faith is not dependent upon reciting the Kalimah and saying Namaaz but, in truth, itis dependent upon holding correct beliefs. Keeping up Namaaz and fasting has no importance if one's beliefs are notcorrect.He has, also, said that he who holds wrong beliefs is irreligious and his writings and his speeches lead to deviations,and if he talks about religion that too, would lead to deviations.So he advised people to shun the company of such persons, as also to avoid reading their writings or else they, too,would be led astray. He has also said that even a religions school set up by people with wrong beliefs is not a schoolof Ieemaan and reformation but a school of infidelity and evil, and those who associate themselves with this school orparticipate in their deliberations would themselves become atheists and irreligious.Just reflect. Thanvi Sahib has labeled famous 'Ulama of his own faction as kaafir because of their wrong beliefs. Hedid not give any importance to Namaaz said by them, or to their learning or to their services, and called their schoolthe school of infidelity, and declared keeping their company and reading their books as atheism and irreligiousness. *NooreMadinah Network - http://www.NooreMadinah.net
