Deobandi marrying a Barelwi
Question
Is the nikaah of a Deobandi jaaiz with a Barelwi?
Answer
Deoband and Bareli are names of towns. The basis of the validity of a nikaah is not the town or the area that the person comes from. The validity is based on the right beliefs. If the beliefs are right then the nikaah is valid.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
