To Summarise It has been clearly proven that the senior of Deoband (Hadhrat Naanotwi RAH. Hadhrat Gangohi RAH.), Hadhrat Sahaaranpuri and Hadhrat THanwi RAH.) are absolutely innocent of the allegations that have been levelled against them and that they all subscribe to the beliefs of the Ahlus Sunnah wal Jamaa'ah. This has been substantiated by the Ulema of the Haramain, Sheikhul Arab wal Ajam Hadhrat Haaji Imdaadullaah Muhaajir Makki RAH. Hadhrat Mufti Azeezur Rahmaan RAH. Sheikhul Hind Hadhrat Moulana Mahmoodul Hasan RAH. Allaama Muhammad Anwar Shah Kashmeeri RAH. Moulana Sayyid Asghar Husayn Muhaddith Deoband RAH. Hadhrat Moulana Shabeer Ahmad Uthma ani RAH. and many others. These men and all the Ulema of Deoband have always been staunch Hanafis, followers of the Ahlus Sunnah wal Jamaa'ah and men who have combined the Shari'ah with Tareeqah. As far as their studies are concerned. they have always been linked to Hadhrat Shah Abdul Ghani Muhaddith Dehlawi Madani RAH. Hadhrat Shah Muhammad Is'haaq Dehlawi Makki RAH. Hadhrat Shah Abdul Azeez Muhaddith Dehlawi RAH. and Hadhrat Shah Waliullaah Muhaddith Dehlawi RAH. As far as Iraadah is concerned. they were linked to Qutubul Aalamhd Haaji Imdaadullaah Muhaajir Makki RAH. and as far as their beliefs were concerned, they followed those of the Ash'ari and Maatureedi schools. Thereafter, they followed Imaam Abu Haneefah RAH. in as far as the practical implementation of the injunctions of the Shari'ah are concerned. These saints have taken the entire world into their lap of knowledge by establishing Daarul Ulooms in Deoband, Sahaaranpur, Muraadabad, Delhi and so many other places. The services they rendered to the dissemination of the Qur'aan, the Ahadeeth and Fiqh through their lecturing and writing cannot at all be matched by the Riza Khan followers. There are millions of people both in and outside the Indian subcontinent who regard them as their leaders and role models in Deen. How can it ever be possible to refer to such eminent people as Kuffaar, Murtad or irreligious? The Fuqahaa state that when there are ninety nine possibilities of interpreting something as (an act or word of) Kufr and only one possibility of interpreting it otherwise, the Mufti or Qaadhi should assume the one possibility and not issue a ruling of Kufr.
