@Waqar786 Pir Mahroof was the Chair of the Trustees of the Jamiyat charity until his death and the other trustees were Ahsan, Liaquat and Khadim. The Trustees allowed Irfan Mashadi to preach at the Westgate Masjid
Sajid Shami and co exhort others to respect Syeds but any Syed who refutes Irfan Shah is fair game to be spoken about in disparaging terms. The result is double standards stemming from blind following. @HajiNaushah give up the trolling and remember Syed Mahroof supported Irfan Shah when the latter was refuting those who he sits with now. There is no evidence that Syed Mahroof changed his stance, so just let it be.

Sajid Shami on Tahir and Ahsan's podcast The million dollar question is did Pir Mahroof Sahib have the same beliefs as Irfan Mashadi Sahib?
There needs to be a clear statement from Ahsan if Irfan Shah has been removed and on what grounds. If the grounds are aqidah then it needs to be established who allowed Irfan to lecture at the Masjid and an apology needs to be made by the trustees to the Sunni community of Bradford. Asrar Rashid is picking on easy targets by targeting chuff, owais qadri and other sufis. He often talks about bidah being prevalent in turuq from the barelwi community and propogates implementing Saad al Dharai. However in this case he is happy to share a stage with Ahsan and narrate dreams about Pir Mahroof after his death and glorifies him. The Barelwis in the UK need to realise if you give an inch they will take more than a mile.
Ideally, Ahsan Shah should release a statement about the removal of Irfan Shah and make it clear it was on the grounds of aqidah. @HajiNaushah I'm sure you've seen my Facebook where I continuously campaigned against Irfan Shah until his removal. So I'm not sure what is meant by your biblical examples.
@Aqdas what do you make of Ahsan quoting the poetry of Haji Muhammad Naushah at 56 minutes? Is it going to be a case of turning the other other cheek or are you going to adopt an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth policy?
@Aqdas is your thread about the Shia at a Mawlild referring to the one Fiaz and Niaz hosted in Manchester? Ironically the UK Barelwis have now made Mahroof Hussain into Alamdar Fikr e Raza and everything else that goes with it. Asrar Rashid Ashari has been talking about sufi cults and chuff chuff for the last few years but went onto declare Pir Mahroof as the Pride of Kashmir. Who exactly allowed Irfan to mount the pulpit at Westgate Masjid for the last few years?
Does this mean JTI have distanced themselves away from Irfan Shah? The host was saying that a big step has been taken to disassociate with a figure who has moved away from the correct creed.
Irfan Mashadi remained as the Jummah Khatib of the Westgate Masjid until the death of Mahroof Hussain. Mashadi also spoke at the Qul Khatam of Mahroof Hussain in Pakistan. Will Mashadi now be allowed to continue his role at the Westgate Masjid? Did the Trustees of the charity Mahroof Hussain, Ahsan, Liaquat and Khadim consider Irfan Mashadi to be a Sunni whilst allowing him a platform to lead the Jummah at the Westgate Masjid?
