so here is sayyidi taaj al-shari'a's actual position on the topic of taqleed shakhsi as presented in the first volume of his collected fataawa (raHimahuAllah).
Interesting thread: This is what Ibn Rushd calls the faqih: one who studies the evidences of the mujtahids. And it is definitely superior to the muqallid who doesn’t know evidences. https://t.co/aTfmeeGFaF— Dr. Shadee Elmasry (@DrShadeeElmasry) July 30, 2019 I do believe that for the illiterate and/or untrained masses it is a real conundrum - and I personally can't think of a very effective solution so long as this illiteracy persists. To me it's beginning to look like the chicken and egg problem - the only solution I can think of is UBE (Universal Basic Education) - which should go hand in hand with UBI (Universal Basic Income). So far as I have seen, for the most part these things hinge on faith/trust - so it depends on what ones' circumstances are and how it shaped their thinking and trust-investment in particular sources of information - a friend, a uni teacher, a (infallible?) pir, a website, an uncle, a cool-looking dude, an over-confident loud-mouth, a smiling shaykh, a cult, a near-cult, translated books available in your local library, whatever happens in Makkah Mukarramah, whoever is winning the argument on islam.stackexchnage.com etc. etc. @muslim-world - your epistemic predilections are seriously messed up! Allah have Mercy on us.
shami saheb has released his counter refutation of kashf e ahwal. izala e khabt o ikhtilal difa e maslak e i’tidal nb i haven’t read the entire book yet. main premise seems to be: “where did i explicitly write that any person can take from any madhhab unconditionally?”
yes, read it last night, it is good enough but not thorough enough. I guess the issue requires a more detailed review.
Six videos posted in the previous messages have been silently removed. Apparently, Saqib's PR department is working overtime for damage control. shows that kanzul huda is a political entity and has other aims than spreading truth of sunni Islam. like tahir's minhaajush shaytaan, there might be other more sinister aspects to it, which will perhaps come to light gradually.
-- Update: cleaned up clutter of videos no longer available -- some people have a lot of things to hide - their cupboard has a lot of skeletons some of which I have personally seen toppling out when the it's door was left unguarded.
Yes. I’ve commented on that in another post. The question, however, is: if he considers it wajib and he is a hanafi, then why does he trim it to less than a fistful? Why should we not call him a fasiq on account of his short beard? At least he accepts the position of wujub according to the hanafis, unlike a few who have written that a fistful beard is merely sunnah ghayr mu’akkadah, which is far from correct. والحق احق ان يتبع
In all that, he still does not clarify his position on the beard. Despite being a hanafi, why is his beard short? He hasn’t said much on that for some reason.
So this was another piece of lies. Where have all those "Baralywi muftiyan e kiraam" who supposedly endorsed this pile of rubbish gotten to? Or are they too weeping for saqib? The phantom muftis seem to have been exorcised out of existence ...
Was the book "maslak-e-i'tidaal" presented to sayyidi taaj al-shari'ah? - Mawlana Asjad Raza The above recording rubbishes the following claim: youtube-link.
For some reason, Saqibis are on a mission to remove any speech which is in reply. It has been re-uploaded here:

yes and no. 1. Initially they will say that any qawl from the four madhhabs - can be followed except if it is extremely da'eef or shaadh. 2. But then they lower the bar further and say that to rule a person fasiq, the hurmat of the act must be proven by ijma'a-e-ummat and that too should be ijma' qatyi not dhanni - which can only be claimed for issues which were agreed upon in the first two centuries (a piece of information culled from fawaatih-ar-raHamoot, vide muna-wad-durar) - this automatically excludes ijma' of ahlussunnah or ijma' of the four madhhabs - these do not qualify as ijma' on whose basis a person can be deemed a fasiq. So going by this, aqwaal outside of the four madhhabs also become qualified for being acted upon. Of-course they will deny this, but that is the laazim al-madhhab of this principle. 3. The third descent is that a sunni mufti's fatwa can be acted upon blindly and a person cannot be called fasiq for acting upon it. For example, if gulaam rasul sa'eedi sahib said that less than a fistful beard is allowed for a hanafi - then that is final and people can act upon it if they want to - and even claim that it is jaiz in hanafi madhhab. 4. All the above different levels of rulings can be chosen at random and even switched between at different occasions. The bottom line is that saqib cannot be called a fasiq - everything then has to be adjusted to prove this. And Allah ta'ala knows best.
