wa alaykum as-salam Brother "a_muslim":

I haven't read either of the two books you've mentioned, but in all honesty there's nothing unbelievable or shocking about this. As you know, it's not uncommon for learned men to write a lot of beneficial and correct points within their books. Yet this does not qualify as a 'carte blanche' to then say whatever they please, especially in the public sphere. What worse harm can there be than from a man who after gaining the laymen's trust deceives them by surreptitiously releasing innovative opinions into his discourse? This is why our ulama have said that the biggest mistakes are indeed those committed by the biggest ulama due to the reputatio and rapport they have in the eyes of the public.
As for which "Deobandi" madrasah he attended, then as far as I'm aware, he is an alimiyyah graduate of Madrasatul Islaah in Azamgarh (UP).
Lastly, I will choose not to publicly display the e-mail correspondence from Khaja Kaleemuddin because I simply believe the details of it to be private and not meant for public perusal. However, if you have any doubt regarding the attributions of those statements to Molvi Wahiduddin Khan, then feel free to e-mail the webmasters of either the al-Risala or Goodword websites and insha'Allah they can respond to your queries.
