Embracing one another not an Eid tradition, says Darul Uloom Deoband

[DESERT FIGHTER]

In yet another fatwa, Islamic seminary Darul Uloom Deoband has decreed the act of embracing or hugging during Eid as 'wrong'. The fatwa, issued two days ahead of Eid, has gone viral on social media.

The cleric bench Mufti-e-Karam has supported this fatwa, which calls the act of embracing while greeting one another during Eid in modern times, as wrong. The fatwa came after a letter from Pakistan asked the seminary if embracing on Eid is correct as per norms of Islam.

The letter had also asked if someone expressed the wish to embrace on Eid, should one follow through. To this, the bench of Darul Uloom said that wishing Eid by embracing has not been mentioned anywhere in historical records.

Explaining the decree, the bench said if a person is meeting someone after a long time, there is nothing wrong in embracing. But such an act should not be converted into an Eid tradition.


Deoband ulema Maulana Qari Sayyid Gora has supported the fatwa.

Earlier this year, the Darul Uloom Deoband had declared the act of men and women eating together during functions as 'un-Islamic'. In another fatwa, the Islamic seminary asked Muslims to avoid families that raise 'haram' (illegitimate) money earned from a banking job and instead look for a "pious" family while considering marriage proposals

The fasting month of Ramzan is expected to end on Tuesday or day after depending on the sighting of the moon. Markets across the country wore a festive look as people began shopping for Eid-ul-Fitr.

Bareli and Deoband are 2 places in India. The residents of these places are called Barelvi and Deobandi respectively. They have nothing to do with Islam or Pakistan. Any Pakistani asking fatwa from them should have their citizenship revoked and deported to india

Pakistan k moulvi mar gaye hn kia

Off course no one in pakistan cares about what happens in madrassas of deoband or bareli in india or what kind of fatwas they are giving. Deobandi and Barelvi in pakistan just means the local molvies who either themselves or their teachers studied from the scholars of those two madrassas pre-1947. This is why these two words are still stuck with these molvies. A common man in pakistan considers himself just Ahl-Sunnat wal jamat or Sunni, this deobandi/barelvi thing is mostly an issue between two groups of molvies not the common indigenous muslims of what is now pakistan.

Barelvis attribute divine qualities to saints.

Deobandis respect saints but don't attribute divine qualities to saints.

Salafis/Ahle Hadis consider saints/auliyas as fraudsters and disrespect them.

Saudis/Gulf Sunnis fund both deobandis and Ahle Hadis. As deobandis have a larger a base than Ahl e hadees in south asia. And deobandi to Ahl e Hadees transitions happen easily.
