Question
what is barelwi, deobandi, soofi, salafi, wahhabi, ahle hadith, tablighi, hizbutahrir ?? what and should i follow any of them ? .. why cant i just follow my own islam ? from what i see fit and makes sense to me from the Quran and sunnah?
Answer
According to our understanding, you are confused over the fact that there are many sects who claim to be on the right. A similar question was asked to Rasulullah (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) who replied, ?You should follow my way of life and the way of my companions (Radhiallaahu Anhmu).?
It is necessary to know that Deen is not based on logic. This was the downfall of the Jews and Christianity. In numerous Ahaadith, we are called upon to follow the commands of Allah as practiced and demonstrated by Nabi (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam).

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
