I personally do not speak Urdu, so I have no idea what he propagates in his lectures but unfortunately I have relatives that are deeply into his teachings and they've been telling me about the things he says. Apparently, he's said things like:
"The real deal with shirk is... you can't say that saying "ghauth-e-azam" or ya "saint" is shirk because... its like saying parents raising children is shirk! In reality it's Allah that gave them their rizq, their power, made them reach the stage there in -- but when you say its the parents who did all that, isn't it shirk?!" (paraphrasing according to the English translation I received). I was told many other things as well, like: "Jibreel (AS) came to Maryam (AS) and told her I'll give you a son -- when it's really Allah swt who gave her the son, isn't this shirk?!" (Astaghfiru Allaah, mass misguidance as they do not understand the Qur'aan in Arabic). Other things I know he promotes are meelaad...
basically, I'd like to hear from those that have heard his lectures or know further about him -- he seems to be popular amongst the bareilwys. Also, if anyone could share any responses done to his lectures, either in English or Urdu (articles, lectures etc.), as that would be useful in shaa Allah.
