Maslak Deoband - Angrez Kee Paidawaar 8

Asalam alekum wr wb
AhleHadeeth the people who followed Quran and Sunnah existed from the Time of Prophet Muhammad Sallahualewasalam
Muaawiyah and Umar ibn al-Khattaab (may Allaah be pleased with them) reported that the Prophet (peace be upon him) said: A group of my ummah will continue victoriously adhering to the truth until the Last Hour begins.
"Imraan ibn Husayn (may Allaah be pleased with him) said that the Prophet (peace be upon him) said: A group of my ummah will continue fighting for the truth, and will prevail over those who oppose them, until the last of them will kill al-Maseekh al-Dajjaal (the Liar or Anti-Christ).
This Hadeeth Above informs us that this group existed during the time of Prophet (Sallahualewasalam) and will be there on the face of the earth to finish Dajjal... but I doubt whether Muqalid hanafi or Deobandi or Barelwi existed during that time. Well we all know that Deoband and Barelwi madarsa / maslak started during the time British rule in India , after the 1857 mutiny British started divide and rule policy so they thought of separating the Muslims first who where a great force . This was the best way they could do it.

Imam Ahmad bin Hanbal said "when he commented on this report by saying that the victorious group who will prevail until the Hour begins is ashaab al-hadeeth (the people of hadeeth). Who is more deserving of this description than people who follow the way of the righteous and follow in the footsteps of the salaf who came before us, and exposed the falsehood of the people of bidah (innovation) by basing their arguments on the Sunnahs of the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him)?

Al-Khateeb al-Baghdaadi said:
Allaah has made these people Ahl al-Hadeeth the pillars of shareeah, and He has destroyed through them all abhorrent innovations. They are the trustees of Allaah among His creation, the intermediaries between the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) and his ummah. They are the ones who are striving hard to protect his religion; their light is shining, their virtues are well known, the signs of their sincerity are obvious, their way is prevailing, and their evidence is supreme. Every group has its own focal point which is based on whims and desires, apart from the people of hadeeth, whose reference point is the Quraan, whose evidence is the Sunnah and whose leader is the Messenger to whom they belong; they do not pay any attention to whims and desires, and they do not care about personal opinions. They are content with what is narrated from the Messenger, and they are the ones who are entrusted with it and they take care of it. They are the guardians and keepers of the faith, the vessels and bearers of knowledge. If there is a difference of opinion concerning a hadeeth, people refer to them, and what they rule is what is accepted and listened to. Among them are prominent faqeehs, great imams, ascetics who are well-known among their tribes, men who are known for their virtue, skilled reciters of Quraan and good speakers. They are the majority and their way is the right way. Every innovator pretends to be following their path, and cannot dare to claim any other way. Whoever opposes them, Allaah will destroy him, and whoever goes against them, Allaah will humiliate him. They are not harmed by those who forsake them, and those who stay away from them will not prosper. The one who cares for his religion needs their help, the one who looks down on them is a loser, and Allaah is able to support them.
Sharf Ashaab al-Hadeeth, p. 15
Shaykh al-Islam [Ibn Taymiyah] said:
We do not mean by Ahl al-Hadeeth only those who study it, write it down or narrate it, rather we mean anyone who takes care to memorize it, understand it and follow it, both inwardly and outwardly. The same may be said of Ahl al-Quraan (the people of the Quraan).
The basic quality of these people is their love of the Quraan and hadeeth, referring to them and their meanings, and acting upon what they learn.

Al-Nawawi said: It is possible that this group is scattered among all types of believers. Some may be brave fighters, or fuqahaa, or scholars of hadeeth, or ascetics, or people who enjoin good and forbid evil, and other types of good people.
Al-Nawawi also added: It could be a group of different types of believers, including those who are brave and skilled in warfare, faqeehs, scholars of hadeeth, Quraanic commentators (mufassireen), those who enjoin good and forbid evil, ascetics and devoted worshippers.
