Topic: Who is Riyad al-Haq?

  Asalaamu 'alaykum

Some youngsters, sincere, wish to promote this man by giving out fliers and posters. However, it was said to them that this man is a deviant.
They have asked for evidence about what he has said and done stating they will leave him if evidence to the contrary is presented.

The only thing I know of him is that he wrote a book on the Hanafi salaah where he attempts to promote this version by bending over backwards to refute anything other than this, e.g. hands above navel, raising of hands before rukoo', etc.

Does anyone have more info about him? What he has said? Anything substantial.

I understand he's from Birmingham so perhaps the brothers there might have more info on who he is.

Jazakumullaah khair

Wa salaam

Subhaanakallaah humma wa bi Hamdika Ashadu allaa ilaha illa ant, astaghfiruka wa atooba ilayk
