That document is nearly 10 years old. I don't think anything ever came out of it as conflicts between different sects as well as intra-sect quarrelling and semantics is as great as ever, if not ever more so than before. I'd be very surprised if all the signatories even remember signing such a document and under what circumstances.
I've read the pledge and it seems like open sulh kullism to me. I've seen the list of signatories too. Is it Gul Muhammad from Jamia al-Karam...? http://muslimmatters.org/2007/09/22/pledge-of-mutual-respect-and-cooperation/
Kaydani this Sulla Kullism is all 'Hikmat e Amali' funded by HM coffers... Shaykh Osi Efa has got the fever of 'Muhabba Unlimited' going through Birmingham http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qmUUnU_Z7VQ It was putting into practice the Pledge of Mutual Respect and Cooperation Between Sunni Muslim Scholars which Shaykh Osi Efa is part off http://www.newislamicdirections.com...ooperation_between_sunni_muslim_scholars_orga It was to stimulate thinking and end - Urge Muslim scholars and students of sacred knowledge to take the lead in working to end ad hominem attacks on other scholars and students; to cease unproductive, overly polemical writings and oral discourse; and to work to stimulate greater understanding and cooperation between Muslims, at both the level of the leadership and the general community; -Urge Muslims in the West, especially our youth, to leave off unproductive and divisive discussions of involved theological issues that are the proper domain of trained specialists, and we especially discourage participation in those internet chat rooms, campus discussion groups, and other forums that only serve to create ill-will among many Muslims, while fostering a divisive, sectarian spirit;
brother haqbahu, i believe the first two are mureeds of mr keller, who believes that Allah has the intrinsic possibility of lying, but it is contingently impossible for Him to lie, which is a disgusting thought every sane person is repelled by. i dont know if haroon hanif is a mureed, but he attends gatherings with mr keller mureeds
Kaydani - the following is from Facebook Allah ta'ala bless the tireless efforts of Qibla Hazrat Pir Sufi Abdullah Khan for Sunni Islam. Hope the issues with Amjad can be clarified regarding his stance on the Deobandi insults and if he believes what manzur numani has written against ala Hazrat is true. As-salaamu 'alaykum, We are pleased to know that there are many individuals who seem to have a concern for how Ghamkol Sharif is managed and are eagar to advise us on who should or should not come, visit or lecture herein. However, there are a few things we want to clarify. Firstly, If any individual or organisation feels that they need to raise an awareness and bring anything to our attention, then they must write their concerns in standard English and deliver it to the Masjid office in person. They must include all of their details and the details of their concerns with sufficient evidence. If this can not be done, then allow us to firmly request that no one should use social media to contanct us or propogate about our activities using informal and negative language. Please be aware that debasing, slandering or causing offence on socail media is a criminal offence (CHECK LEGAL TERMS). Secondly and most importantly, allow us to re-assure our comunity and our visitors that we are a functioning organisation led by one of the greatest Awliya of our time. We are humbled to be Ahlus Sunnah and even more so to serve Ahlus Sunnah. Our advisors are well aware of the doctrine of Imam Ahmad Raza Khan (may Allah have mercy on him) and have the privilidge of having single and dual links between themselves and the great Imam. We are also very fortunate to have a close acquintance with most of the Ulama who have visited the UK since the last 50 years. Nothing we do or decide is from coincidence. Everything is thought through, verified and accepted. We seek guidence from the Ulama and avoid petty and often zelous politics which springs from a minority. https://www.facebook.com/pages/Cent...mingham-Events/172862942762516?ref=ts&fref=ts
