Bro, I cannot believe how insensitive you are. Are you not a human? These people are shaheed inshallah and may God grant them Jannah. Keep your mind open attend one of their gatherings and you will realise that there is ntohing wrong here. People from all backgrounds attend it including Deobandi, Barelvi, Ahle Hadis, Hanafi, Shafaee e.t.c. Some mullas worrying that they might lose their power on their people make wrong statements but reality is that they have only been trying to make muslims better muslims. They don't disucss controversial things and dont engage in any conversion activitities. So relax and pray that Allah bless them Amen

SCORGE OF ALLAH! ON
