Question Summary:
is it allowed to follow shoora tartheeb of tableeg allowed in Isamic ruling? Is it a bidath?

Question Detail:

Asalamu Alykum Mufti Saab, 

Answer :

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.

We commend you on doing the work of tableegh. Continue doing the noble work and avoid disputes with anyone. Shura is not a bidah. Allah Himself stated that muslims should make Shura [mutual consultation] with each other. Allah Taala says:

وَأَمْرُهُمْ شُورَىٰ بَيْنَهُمْ[سورة الشورى:٣٨]

Translation:

“And their affairs are based on mutual consultation”.

When Allah instructs us of Shura, how can Shura be bidah!

Hadhrat Mufti Ebrahim Desai Sahib’s fatwa was based on the fatwa of Darul Uloom Deoband. The issue was about the improper statements made by Maulana Saad. Furthermore, our fatwa does not deal with the issue of “Shura & Nizamuddin”. That is an administrative issue that needs to be resolved internally.

And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
