Hijaz college i have visited myself met with shaykh faiz ul aaqtab siddiqui. In terms of education, it is not very impressive the standard in which the Dars E Nizami taught at is effective in terms of the level that should be taught at. From its establishment, not many schoolars have been produced, any English speakers you hear of very few or any would say they have come from Hijaz College
obviously they are referring to gregorian - which shows that the claimants do not know that Mujaddids are classified by the Islamic calendar. with due respect to pir Abdul Wahab sahab, I like bro AQ saying "maybe".
Thank you for your comment. I was referring specifically to Pir Abdul Wahab (ra) and my comment should not be applied in the general sense to every scholar/shaykh/pir. I agree with you, the floodgates for this need to remain closed. But what may have been done many many years ago should be put aside. It is an isolated incident and no one goes rambling or shouting on about it. ''Indeed every mureed and student will consider his shaykh or teacher unparalleled.'' The above statement was made only to illustrate the fact that every mureed/student will think most highly of their teacher/shaykh; not to promote every person calling his teacher/shaykh a mujadid.
generally speaking, though, it's the ulama who have traditionally agreed upon who's a mujaddid. it's only in our times that murids make their pir/leader a mujaddid whereas the ulama may not even consider them a scholar! look at tahir. the guy commits kufr and still he's called a mujaddid by his minhajis. so no way should it become acceptable for murids to shout 'mujaddid'. if the scholars feel someone may be one, they'll probably say so. and even if they don't, there's no necessity for the mujaddid of each century to be announced and agreed upon. this gives licence to one and all to call his pir a mujaddid. we mustn't respect that and should say to them that a man doesn't become a mujaddid just by his followers saying so. @adam: if we think like you then we'll have a new mujaddid every week. --- ps: I have nothing against pir Abdul wahhab. just a general comment.
Hazrat Moulana Abdul Wahab Siddiqi Sahib (ra) is gone from this world and I think if people want to call him a Mujadid out of love (or whatever other good reason) then we should respect that and not cause too much of a fuss. I don't think that in someone calling them a Mujadid takes anything away from Ala Hazrat (ra), if that is what's going through anyone's head. I do believe that to quite a few people, they were a reviver of some sort and probably the greatest influence. Indeed every mureed and student will consider his shaykh or teacher unparalleled. And Surely ALLAH the Almighty knows best... As for the courses though, there is a space for online courses out there. The deos and wahhabis have been doing it for years now. I do not know a great deal about the place, but let us pray that Hijaz becomes a beacon of hope and guidance for the Muslims of the present and future.
are we in the 20th century Hijri? if yes, wow, we are in the age of time travel!! It only shows how knowledgeable the claimants are. if you can, please ask them for the list of mujaddids for the 15th to 19th century also.
http://www.hijaziu.com You can do a variety of post graduate courses online. If you a really smart you can do a Ph.D and be supervised by the Mujaddid of the 21st Century, Pir e Tariqat Allama Faiz ul Aqtab
Salam brothers Has anyone got any information with whats going on at hijaz college, i visited a few days ago and i heard its been closed down and the teaching will be given online..can you please inform me if anyone has any information, bad to see tho, on the mazaar sharif of pir abdul wahab it says outside in BOLD "mujaddid of the 20th century"?
