I always had my doubts about Shz Mufaddal Bhaisab having the ability, intellect, knowledge and diplomatic skills. I had done salaam to him many times and he was always in a hurry to move to the next person, and would not even wait to listen to you, and what I felt really bad was he would not even make eye contact. Burhanuddin Aqa RA would always look at me when I was doing salaam and would listen to my araz even if the kotharis were trying to push me away. I always walked away feeling blessed and refreshed from his Hazrat.su thai su thai

Then I heard this audio of his (above link) last year and this was the final nail in my doubt coffin. I was convinced that a dai-in-waiting cannot be saying and speaking like this, much less thinking and leading people down a radical and segregated way of life. Just his tone and way he spoke, and his ignorance of the world, science, media, thoughts about adultery and call centers.. blah blah blah..
Islam is about balance of Deen and Duniya and I saw him for what he is - unbalanced..
When I see the crowds follow him and chant what they chant, I feel relieved that I am not part of that cult. Allah has an amazing process of cleaning the dirt in dawat and it has happened from the days of Adam. Jealously Pride and Greed forced Kabil to murder his brother Habil. Same forces at work here.
