The founder and
Imam of the Barelawis was Ahmad Raza Khan, who
was an extremist Sufi known for his Takfeer
(declaring Kufr) and extremely heretical
beliefs.
Allama Ehsan
Illahi Zaheer (rahimahullah) has written a
detailed book on the Barelawis, which
highlights…
The influences
of Shi’ism on the founder of the Barelawi
school of thought.
The easiness
with which they declare Kufr on their
opponents.
Their giving
superstitions, baseless talk, unfounded
stories and fables, the garb of religion.
Their
distortion (Tahreef) and misinterpretation of
the Book and the Sunnah to support their
beliefs.
Anyone who wishes
to further study this subject should refer to
this book called, ‘Barelawis – History and
Beliefs’[1]
[1] Another excellent book
that explicitly exposes the corrupted
beliefs and actions of the Barelwis is, ‘The
Book of Unity or Oneness of Allah’ compiled
by Muhammad Iqbaal Kailani.
