Qazi Hasan Raza Bradford

Salam, does anyone know who Qazi Hasan Raza is from Bradford? Any info? Who he is? Who he studied under? Is he trustworthy?
 
Wasalaam. Mufti Sahib has his own organisation called al markaz ul islami in bradford. They are doing some good work with the youngsters of bradford.

He is the son of Mufti Saif ur Rehman rahmathullah aleyh. His videos are available in youtube.

mufti Hasan Raza sahib is a very humble man and has changed the lives of many youngsters in Bradford. Their madrassah is pretty good too.
 
They are pat'an in ethnicity and a Qadri in Tariqah. They are the shaykh/spiritual guide of Imam Asim Hussain, also of Bradford, as well as his initial teacher and great influence.
 
Qazi Hasan is unreliable. He's with Tahir ul, believes Husam al-Haramayn created fitnah and recently had blasphemer Nouman Ali Khan at his Markaz.
 
Any proof for this allegation?



Again, any proof?



I know first hand that Mufti Saab was unaware of who Nouman Ali Khan is/was and his heretical statements.
1. Tahir ul
He's shared stages and I asked him and he sided with Tahir ul.

2. Husam
Mawlana Nadir posted about this.

3. Markaz can please make a public statement about this as Markaz had a blasphemer on stage. So they need to say they consider him deviant and wouldn't have invited if they knew his aqidah.

---
If Qazi Hasan Raza clarifies any of these three points and his view is of Sunni mainstream, I'll publicly retract.

1. Can you please qualify that statement? What does "side with" mean - are we referring to the Wembley incident or something else here?

2. Which Mawlana Nadir is this? Is this Mawlana Nadir Raza from Bolton?

3. Whilst I personally agree, there are many other factors and nuances at play here.

Mawlana, with all due respect, why the approach of "shoot from the hip and clean up the blood later"? Targeting ulema (or anybody for that matter) without clear and explicit proof and then publicly retracting is just character assassination and slander, no matter how somebody wants to present it as auditing and valid critique. First confirm, then speak out all guns blazing, don't just leave bad smells hanging around Sunni ulema.
 
I asked on the phone to him so won't say too much but that his response wasn't aligned with our view on Tahir ul.

Nadir Raza of Blackburn posted about him speaking against Husam.

And NAK, they publicly promoted him. They must now clarify publicly.

If he comes out and says Tahir ul isn't reliable, Husam is correct and NAK is deviant, we can take it from there.

When did Mawlana Nadir post this?

The reason I'm asking is in August 2024 he met Mufti Saab, shared a platform with them and was acting in an extremely friendly manner towards them. Why did he not raise their concerns then?

If it was too awkward to raise directly, has he raised these objections via his pir-o-murshid, the Khalifa of Mufti Azam-e-Hind Rahimahullah, and consulted their opinion? I am aware of their outward opinion of Mufti Saab, and they're pretty hardline when it comes to issues of sulh kullism and aqeedah (there are large Sufi jamaats who most consider within Ahlus Sunnah that they don't like).

The easiest solution is for Qazi Hasan saab to clarify all 3 matters. Otherwise we can do whys and wherefores all day.
 
“Some months ago, a certain Qāḍī from Bradford, upon hearing that I am translating Husām al-Ḥaramayn, remarked that Imām Aḥmad Razā Khān was wrong to publish this work and to declare takfīr upon Mirza Ghulām Aḥmad Qādiyānī and the four akābir of Deoband.

He stated:
“Yeh toh sirf buzurgo ke darmiyān ikhtilāfāt the.” (These were merely differences between elders.)

He further added:
“Husām al-Ḥaramayn ummat ki tabāhī kā bā‘is ban sakta tha.” (Husām al-Ḥaramayn could have led to the destruction of the ummah.)

My Response:

1 - It is a grave distortion to downplay the kufr of not only the akābir of Deoband but especially that of Mirza Ghulām Aḥmad Qādiyānī as nothing more than “differences between elders.” Such a statement betrays either ignorance or a deliberate misrepresentation of reality.

2 - Husām al-Ḥaramayn was a decisive work that distinguished truth from falsehood. To claim that it could have led to the destruction of the ummah is, in essence, an accusation against Imām Aḥmad Razā Khān himself. This Qāḍī should tread carefully and remain within his domain.

For decades, individuals have used the name of Imām Aḥmad Razā to further their own causes, collecting donations and establishing positions of influence. Yet now, some of these very people cast accusations upon the Imām and act contrary to his teachings. The honour they recently afforded to Nouman Najdī is proof enough of where their loyalties lie.

Allāhu al-Musta‘ān”

@HASSAN

It's just a spurious allegation until it's ratified.

Have you actually tried to establish whether Mawlana Nadir is telling the undistorted truth or have you accepted his words right off the bat? Have you spoken to Mufti Raza about this matter?
 
Have you spoken to Mufti Raza about this matter?

No, I have not done so, nor do I intend to

Even if the claim concerning Husam were inaccurate, the individual in question has repeatedly hosted TuQ and has met with him, as well as having NAK on his stage without issuing any clarifications or retractions

This persistent pattern renders his credibility deeply questionable; in that context, the matter of Husam would merely represent another stain on a frankly already tarnished record and is enough for me to be wary of him

Given his past associations and evident rapport with the Minjahis, I find it unsurprising—if not likely—that he harbours issues with Husam as well
