I am a sunni hanafi. I want to ask whether the Ahle Hadith will be considered muslims, as they do not pay respect to the Prophet (S.A.W.S) and aulia allah.. Moreover they consider ahle sunnat as innovators and wrong in belief. In addition to this, they misuse the term taqleed and say that it is shirk to follow any imam. So, what is the fatwa regarding them? And there are some ahadeeth indicating that a horn of devil will rise from najd.
Answer :
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
Assalaamu `alaykum waRahmatullahi Wabarakatuh If a persons aqidah (beliefs) are in conformity with the Ahlus Sunnah wal Jama’ah, he will be considered a Muslim. If the beliefs of the Ahl Hadith conform to the Ahlus Sunnah they, too would be considered Muslims. It is of utmost importance to respect all the messengers and friends of Allah Ta’ala. If a person does not pay respect to any messenger, he is in extremely great danger. However, what do you mean by “they do not pay respect”? It is wajib to make Taqleed. If a person does not make taqleed, he will not be considered to be out of the fold of Islam. The narrations regarding the horn of the devil rising from Najd are general and open for interpretation. فتح الباري - ابن حجر - 7094 وأصل النجد ما ارتفع من الأرض وهو خلاف الغور فإنه ما انخفض منها وتهامة كلها من الغور ومكة من تهامة انتهى وعرف بهذا وهاء ما قاله الداودي ان نجدا من ناحية العراق فإنه توهم ان نجدا موضع مخصوص وليس كذلك بل كل شيء ارتفع بالنسبة إلى ما يليه يسمى المرتفع نجدا والمنخفض غورا And Allah knows best Wassalamu Alaikum Ml.
