Şafāyiĥ al-Lujayn fi Kawn at-Taşāfuĥ bi Kaffay al-Yadayn Strata of Silver: On Greeting With Both Hands Among the many strange and literal interpretations of the anti-madh’hab sects is that they consider grasping both hands during a handshake as a bidáh and that it is not permissible. They claim that it contradicts the ĥadīth as the word yad or ‘one hand’ is mentioned in the ĥadīth. Alahazrat had planned to answer it in detail ...

Read MoreAl-Kawkabah al-Shihābiyyah fī Kufriyyāti Ab al-Wahābiyyah The Thundering Fireball: Upon the Heresies of the Father of Wahabism The seed of Wahābī heresy in India was planted by Ismāýīl Dihlawī. Even though Deobandīs pretend that they have nothing to do with Wahābīs, their elders were great admirers of Ismāýīl (who was slain by upright Muslims in Balakot – but Deobandī/Wahābī followers colour it as a martyrdom) and his books Taqwiyatu’l Īmān, Yīđāĥ al-Ĥaqq, ...

This was originally a Mútazilī belief which was buried with the Mútazilah long ago; it was revived in the subcontinent by Ismāýīl Dihlawi and promoted by his followers – the elders of the Deobandī school. Khalil ...
