Are Deobandi and Tableeghi Jam’aat people considered Kafir?

I have a problem dat in my area,people use to follow those moulana who practices shirk and bid’aat (dawa’at-e-islami)…. Those moulana label “deobandis” and “tableeghi jam’aat” people as “kaafir”…(may allah protect us) i am 18 yr old…i have to many friends who r follower of ahmed raza khan(barelvi)…. They always say me wrong things (fitna of thier moulana) about jam’aat people….which i dont like.. But they never challenge me,coz they knw i hav true knowledge of islam(thanx to allah)….they never say me directly abt abt my practises… Alhumdullillah ! I use to go on jam’aat … But i remain keep shut my mouth while talking them in “barelvi and wahabies” topics… B’coz i know they are not goin to hear me anymore as they are highly influenced by thier fitnabaaz moulana’s… I dont speak wid them in these topic b’coz i want to answer them not with my mouth but with my amal…. I knw if i’ll open my mouth then they are not goin to win the debate with me !!! Pls reply me some strong hadith with reference of books to answer them against their wrong practices such as following “pirs”,”mannat in mazaar”,”thier bid’aad way of zikr in darkness”…..to shut thier mouth !!!!!! Send my some dua as well to increase in good amal and to gain more and more knowledge abt my deen… Dua for me pls to become an example for them and bring all of us in “shiraat-ul-mustaqeem”……insha-allah pls reply as soon as possible.

Wrong theories of Barelvi sect have been refuted in many books, like Radd-e-Razakhaniat, Mutala-e-Barelviat, Ibarat-e-Akabir etc. You can buy these books from any book depot of Deoband. You should strive to bring them to the right path with wisdom and insight in the light of these books.

You should often recite the Holy Quran and keep remembering your death. According to Hadith, both the things are sources to purify ones heart. Also, recite the third kalimah, durood and istighfar one hundred times each in the morning and evening. If there is a pious follower of Sunnah Shaikh in nearby places, you should do bai’ah with him and follow his instructions. You should also go in tablighi jamat for one for forty days or four months.
