Assalaamu 'alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh,
I agree with your sentiments akhi, the brother is a scholar perhaps in his
own field of da'wah, not perhaps in the other 60-70 branches of Islamic
sciences, but that is good enough for me.
As regards people writing stuff about this sheikh and that sheikh, or
websites dedicated to attacking Muslim personalities, perhaps those who do so,
should tell us who they are and whether they are qualified qadi's and who gave
them the right to attack other brothers and sisters online?
Today the house is on fire, and people are still trying to build the inner
cornice's and trimmings - when they should all be fighting the fire, and
teaching the basics and fundamentals which are being attacked constantly.

In the holy Quran Allah SWT calls the believers, muslims. This is the basis
of the argument of Zakir Naik when he says dont give names but stay united as
muslims and not as hanafis, shafis, ahle sunna, salafi ....... This makes much
sense. By no means is Zakir Naik against correct aqeeda or the true concept of
Islam. Neither does he consider himself a scholar par excellence.
If the scholars of Ahle Sunnah see problems in Zakir Naik, why do they not
sit with him on one to one basis and try to sought out the differences. Are
they not into creating fitna and discord by publicly refuting him and even
calling him names without giving Zakir Naik the chance to counter argue.
And if they are so bold enough, let them attend the lectures of Zakir Naik
and refute him direct on one to one basis so that Zakir naik has a fair chance
to counter and we all get to see the outcome.They are bound to get numerous
opportunities as Zakir Naik gives lectures in hundreds in different parts of
the world.
The problem is that some of these scholars of Ahle Sunnah have become so
obsessed by their scholarship that it has taken a toll of their heads. There is
a need for them to come out of their cozy little world and see the bigger
picture and get involved with the masses. I dare them to do their real duty and
stand in front of a congregation of thousands and thousands of hindus and
christians and invite them to Islam with sound lectures and arguments and
provide replies to their doubts and questions.
I wonder if such scholars of ahle sunnah can invite one non-muslim to the
fold of Islam with their vast knowledge. There record pales in front of the not
so perfect Zakir Naik and Ahmed Deedat.
I remember the words of Dr. Israr Ahmed who purportedly meant these ahle
sunnah scholars when he said that they are "seas of knowledge" but in their use
and interpretation of the knowledge they are not simply generations but
centuries behind.
It is imperative for muslims with even an iota of wisdom, not to propagate
discord amongst the community by forwarding such messages.

Hope from the following site we can learn a lot about the deviation of Zakir
naik and the advice of the great Scholars regarding his issues (Masha Allah).
Therefore it is advisable to stick to the advice of the Ulamas of Ahlus Sunnah
waljama to hold fast to the truth instead of falling into deviation and
confusion.
May Allah Guide us to the Truth and Save from Hell fire!
