Abdullah Ibn Abbaas said, "When "Bid'ah" is created then the Sunnah dies and this continues until that "Bid'ah" is living and the Sunnah is dead.

Hasan Ibn Attiya, one of the Ta'baeen said, "When the people accept the "Bid'ah" ,  Allah removes the Sunnah from among them and doesn't return it until the day of judgment."

Moreover, Disobedience to the Messenger is disobedience to Allaah, for he said: “Whoever obeys me, has obeyed Allaah, and whoever disobeys me, has disobeyed Allaah.” (Narrated by Al-Bukhaari)

Ibn Taimiyah, the great Muslim Mujaddid (Revivalist), scholar and Mujaahid said: “Shaving the beard is haraam (forbidden) - no scholar has ever permitted it.”  

This  Ummah has been put to trial in current times is the emergence of a people like Maududi who in showing the people they are more knowledgeable, abrogate the Sharee’ah in the name of "revivalism" and facilitate all of the ways to corruption in the name of "understanding the ease and lenience of Islaam". And so they opened up evil and despicable avenues in the name of "ijtihaad". Then they belittled the affairs of the Sunnah in the name of the "Understanding of priorities"

See some of the sayings of  Maududi's Religion

" .... Religion is the name of ruling. shariah is the law of ruling system and worship is to follow the legacy of  the system ...." {khutbat - page 217}- ( jamaate-islami ko phachaniye - page 49).

"People usually says that five pillars of islam, shahadah and prophethhood, salah, paying obligatory charity, fast in the month of ramdhan, pilgrimage and they have been in the confusion for long time that these are the things to be named as islam. The truth is that this is a big confusion which destroyed the way and practice of muslims." {kausar 9th february 1951 - speech of moudidi}- ( jamaate-islami ko phachaniye - page 61).    

THIS IS TO SHOW THE NATURE OF MAUDUDI'S IGNORANCE OF FUNDAMENTAL ISSUES OF THE RELIGION.

Refer bukhari and muslim where five pillars of islam has been described as 1- shahadah  2-establishing salah  3-paying obligatory charity  4-fast in the month of ramdhan  5-pilgrimage    

See what Maududi has to say about our Beloved Prophet's statement about Dajjaal

" Is the history of 1300 years is not proved that prophet mohammed's assumption (of dajjal) is not right" {tarjumanul quran part 28, no. 3}- (jamaate-islami ko phachaniye - page 80).

"the one eyed dajjal is just a telling there is no islamic ruling on that. there is no need to search for this type of thing. islam is not responsible for such a thing which is been popular among people. if this is been proved wrong it doesn't harm islam" { tarjumanul quran -ramzan and shawal addition hijri - 1364}- (jamaate-islami ko phachaniye - page 153).  

You only Ikhwaani's tell us what is this  Aqeedah of Maududi

"human may believe in Allah or refuse, prostate Allah or  stone, worship allah or other or may worshipping by his will, but he is worhipping allah" {tafhimat - under heading 'islam me ibadat ka tassawur' - page 43} - (jamaate-islami ko phachaniye - page 150).     

"The Angel in islamic terminology is nearly the same thing as been accepted in india, unaan and other  country as the god (devta) and goddess (devi)" {tajdeed o ahaye deen - page 10} - ( jamaate-islami ko phachaniye - page 151).  

See how Maududi guides his jamaa'at, that's why you'll find most of Ikhwani either Mutazalite's or Qutubiyyah

"No true person can tell that all 6 to 7 thousand ahadiths (of sahih bukhari) are totally correct" {the speech given by moudidi in  barkat hali hall  on 15th may 1955 noted by newspaper al-etesam dated 27th may 1955 and dated 3rd june 1955} - (source : jamaate-islami ko phachaniye - page 165).                         

See how he the temporary Nikah (mutah) which is declared as haram by prophet Muhammed is been made halal by Maududi creating hypothetical situation from his imagination. history of the world is unable to record a single situation till date as imagined by Maududi

"Lets assume that a boat got broken in the sea. only one male and female was able to escape and some how got floated to island where there is no human being. now they are bound to leave together. as per islamic ruling they can't do nikah also. for them no way left but to accept the terms between them and do the temporary nikah (mutah) till they reach the population or the population reach to them.  temporary Nikah (mutah) is for this or for similar situations ." {tarjumanul quran -august 1955 - page 379} (jamaate- islami ko phachaniye - page 157).  

Actually Maududi is compelled to say such things to maintain Harmony, As Every one is aware of Maududi's Relation with Raafidis (Shi'ites) even though his Imaam, Imaam Abu haneefah {rahima'ullah}  often use to say "whoever doubts whether shi'ites are disbeliever has himself COMMITTED A KUFR

"we are in the search of people like khatija and abubakar who can listen to our call of truth and totally submit to that as that they are waiting for that only"  {rawadad - jamaate islami part III page 23} - (jamaate-islami ko phachaniye - page 197).  

Now any one can note that the person who is searching for the khatija and abubakr to follow him. what will be his position for himself .  

Here are some More glimpses of the famous Maulana Maudoodi’s wisdom:

Please turn to page 340, vol. I of Tafheemul-Quran by Maudoodi. After discussing some silly details, Maudoodi comes with a brilliant conclusion:

Even today women captured in war should be distributed among soldiers and the soldiers be allowed to use them.

The Qur'ân in verse 47/4 states that: "the captives of war must be freed either for ransom or as a way of kindness. There is no other option."

It is permissible to marry little girls (before puberty). It is also permissible for the husband to have sex with them. (Mulla Maudoodi: Tafheem-ul-Qur’an Urdu, vol.5, p.571)

Hazrat Uthman burnt six volumes of the Qur'ân, which were all different tongues. Allaah and Rasool had not ordered him to do that. (Syed Maudoodi Tarjumanul Qura’n 1975, p. 39) How could Maudoodi be a witness to that?

Maudoodi had also suggested that interest from banks and Government funds should be designated as profit!

After declaring picture-taking ‘haram’, he says: “Photographs of leaders and public meetings do not qualify to be permitted or essential.” however His own, and his party’s pictures are a commonplace in the newspapers. (Rasail-o-Masail, Vol 1, page 120)

On the same page he termed pictures of the kings on the coins as idol-worshiping. However, when he himself was awarded the Shah Faisal Award, the medal had King Faisal’s image engraved on it and his pictures wearing it around his neck are a historical record.

About the hadith of Hazrat Sulaiman’s 100 wives Maudoodi explains: “Either Abu Hurairah made a mistake in hearing the Prophet, or he did not hear all of the narration.” (Rasail-o-Masail, Vol 2, page 27)

Responding to a question concerning praying to graves he says about the dead: “It is possible that you may be calling but they may not be listening. It is also possible that they may be able to listen but their spirit may not be there and you may be calling nobody. Or it may be that, that there soul may be there and praying to their Lord and you may tease them in your selfishness.” (Same, page 261)

Maudoodi quotes scholars from Hanafi Fiqh that if someone said ‘Divorce’ three times even before getting married, the woman he would marry will be divorced right away. (Same, page 188)

One of the early scholars, Al-Barbahaaree, one of the companions of Ahmed Ibn Hanbal, said, "Beware of "Bid'ah", because every "Bid'ah" started out as something small and resembling the truth and people were fooled by it and followed it until it became bigger and bigger and were trapped by it and it took them out of Islam."

Ibn Taymiyyah has a nice passage in one of his books showing that: "In fact, the kufr of Jews and Christians is because of "Bid'ah". They introduced new things into the religion and those things took them completely away from the true message of Musa (Moses) and Isaa (Jesus) Alaihumma Salam".

Imaam Ibnul Qayyim al-Jawziyyah The war against the innovators is greater than the war against the Musrikeen.

Ahmad Ibn Hanbal once said, "The greatest sinner (faasiq) from the Ahl-Sunnah Wal Jamaah is better than the most pious person from Ahl-"Bid'ah".

After reading ALL these it should become clear to the one who is free from ta'assub and hizbiyyah that Maulana Maududi is most certainly not a mujaddid, or a scholar as is ignorantly propagated by many.
