Fatwa #770613 January 2003South Africa

I would like to know why some people say that Sheikh Abdul-Qadir Gilani(RA) is the most controversial of all the Awliya Ikraam?

Question

Are there any attributes to him that should make people think this way??

Answer

It could be due to certain statements attributed to him and quoted out of context.

and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
