They should be representatives of what Ala Hazrat Imam Ahmad Raza Khan RA taught since the deviants like Salafis like to speak against Ahlus Sunnah and use many actions of Sunnis and our Ulama for this, however when we look closer realise that these things are also what our Imam after whom we are recognised for following, forbade and spoke against, we are not following Maslak of Alahazrat, we are doing the exact things he spoke against. If the Ulama cannot follow then the common people will not either. This is why we see that the actions of most of Sunnis is very different from what is found in the teachings of AlaHazrat.
we see 'photos' of muhammad ibn abd al Wahhab najdi, the founder of wahabi movement on the internet. google his name and you will see a few pics - different guys labelled as shaykh najdi. if you google shah waliyullah dihlawi, you will find some pictures purportedly of the shaykh. but these are anachronisms. consider the following: according to history of photography, the first surviving photograph is 'view from a window in le gras' and dated from 1826 or 1827. the first photograph with humans in it is the boulevard du temple in 1838. -------------------------------------------------------------- muhammad ibn abd al-wahhab, the founder of wahabism died in 1206AH, which is 1791, about 35 years before the photograph was invented. [shaykh najdi: 1115-1206 AH / 1703-1791(or 1792) CE at the age of 88]. besides, the photos are of men in their forties-fifties; and if that was the case, these purported photos would be some 70 years before the date of the earliest surviving photograph. mawlana shah waliyullah dihlawi 1114-1175 /1702-1762CE] passed away a full 65 years before the invention of the photograph; therefore all photos of his are fake; of course, a painted portrait is something which we have no means to authenticate or refute - unless the portrait was made by some well-known painter and a contemporary of shah sahib. --- also the most shameless among devbandi/wahabi groups are circulating/labeling the picture of ghulam mirza qadiyani as alahazrat's photo.
