Barelwis (just like Deobandis) are Sufi Maturidis, holding a kalam-based aqidah, one that opposes what Abu Hanifah and his students were upon for they shunned and condemned the people of kalaam. But in addition to this, the Barelwi leaders have built up a mystical, cult-belief system centered around saints by which they mesmerize the ignorant masses, presenting them easy salvation if they devote themselves to the saints. In this section we shall elaborate upon some of their beliefs in this regard and their misuse of revealed texts to justify these beliefs.
