There are a lot of misconceptions raised with regards to “wahdatul wujood”. Many salfis, ahlulhadeeth, la-madhabs claim that this is an aqeedah of Deobandis/sufis etc. They interpret it as “everything is Allah”. Please clarify it’s correct definition. Also, whether it is an aqeedah, and if it is a requirement for following the tareeqat.
Regarding this issue, those people who reject Hadith and those people who deny following one of the school of thoughts don’t know anything that’s why they speak like that who reject . Keeping the issue in its place, your description of it is wrong. People who accept the thought of ‘wahdatul wujood’ don’t say that everything is Allah. There is another explanation of this concept, which cannot be understood by everyone. That explanation is related to the discipline of ‘Tasawwuf’ and it’s in-depth understanding. Here at this place, due to the lack of knowledge in this area, a misunderstanding has taken place.
