The Deluge

There is a flood of an ideology in present times that, riding the western intellectual juggernaut, is polluting the Islamic mind, a sort of new Mutazila. A deviant, being what he is, is not committed to the teachings of Islam. Hence he is also has freed from the requirement of adhering to the truth. Spreading lies does not weigh much on his conscience. He also has a mistaken notion of his intellectual invincibility.

Shaikh Latif-ur-Rehman Qasmi Behraichi has compiled a three volume compendium of the Traditions (ahadees) transmitted by Imam-e-Azam Abu Hanifa (RA). Deoband.org has posted the preface to this compendium by Shaikh Abdul Hafiz Makki translated by Maulana Ismaeel Nakhuda. This should be an eye opener to the neo-mutazila calumny that Imam-e-Azam was weak in Traditions ( may Allah forgive us for repeating their falsehood).
