Qatar Ridawi I've just read some Facebook posts and people are claiming to know who you are, kattar you were also mentioned. I think it's getting out of hand.
Masha'Allah. I just came across the following video of Shaykh Abdul Qadir and Shaykh Yasin: Will Shaykh Yasin be at the debate? Will he be supporting Shaykh Abdul Qadir as he praises him a lot during the talk?
Also, brother Qais, can you please let us know who the Sadr al-Munazra is from each side? Or who each side will be taking as Ali Hasan Khan mentioned that there will be 3-4 people on each side.
A final request would be a copy if their syllabus or a point of direct contact with the Roland Rd institute. Thank you.
Jazakumullah Khair. May ALLAH Ta'la reward the brothers who have got back to me. I trust your words entirely, but I will try to verify everything and continue with the work that was started.
Yes Maulana Nabeel Afzal, The nabeel Issue being the issue of Abdul Qadir challenging Nabeel Afzal for a debate calling him a takfeeri maulvi and saying he knows no more than the phrase 'man shakka fee a'dhaabihi wa kufrihi fa qad kafara", he calls nabeel afzal a jahil and wants to debate at the same time, Maulana Nabeel responded by saying for a debate both parties have too be on the same level, so if nabeel afzal is a jahil why was abdul qadir challenging him? Alongside this abdul qadir's posse on facebook were attakcing Maulana Nabeel for not being able to read arabic properly, and stating abdul qadir knows the plural of firqah is Firq and not firaq. The kufaar of arabiyah were masters of the arabic language, this does not mean knowing aabic better than the other part makes you more knowledgeable. In the end Maulana Nabeel accepted the debate challenge and abdul qadir backed out and removed his video from youtube. Wide decision
@Adam Yahya brother, Ustadh Abdul qadeer teaches in lozells roland road under supervision of mufti yaar saab also studies there the advanced books, he finished the 8 year syllabus few years ago and has students who are in their 4th year with him.
All I know is that they teach Dars e Nizami at Mufti Yaar's madrassa; Jamia tul Furqaan in Lozells (Birmingham). Will let you know if I find out more
Thank you. What are they specifically studying at the moment, if they've completed 8 years or whatever syllabus they were following? 8-10 years of full time study, inclusive of 8 years Dars Nizami, would make them amongst the heavyweight teachers and scholars in the UK today. If so, then I would like to know whether they are currently teaching and, if so, then where? This is part of my research into scholarship and teaching in the UK, in case anyone is wondering what I'm up to. I had a thread about it on Sunnaforum. Jazakallah.
I get the feeling that the references made to studying 8-10 years here was probably part time study. Do correct me if you can prove otherwise. I think that a simple lecture or written format refutation of Hassan's books/pamphlets would've been a better start. Debates rarely see to the desired outcome nowadays, sadly.
And on facebook people are stating Shaykh Asrar will be going along with Abdul Qadir. I doubt that very much lol
I came across that 'fatwa', Haroon Sultan seems like he suffers from an inferiority complex because no one wants to know him. And I wonder who the other 2 people will be that will accompany abdul qadir, as ali hassan khan wants 3 people from each side.
Is Harun Sultan going to be the assistant? Just make sure you don't bring Raja Saleem Akhtar. Harun Sultan is fellow classmate to AQ at Mufti Yar's. He has studied 'longer' than anyone. He declared the chairman of Ghamkol Sharif mosque a kafir for firing Mufti Yar from Ghamkol. His 'fatwa' was on FB.
