مولانا کا لقب: شرک یا احترام؟ - Is Dr. Israr Ahmad’s Motivational Bayan

The Quran refers to Allah as 'Mawla'. Some people address respected scholars as 'Maulana' as a sign of reverence. This lecture clarifies that using the term 'Maulana' is not shirk (associating partners with God). The word 'Mawla' has multiple meanings: master, helper, and even a freed slave. It’s a term of respect, similar to addressing someone as 'my master', and its use is permissible. Both 'Maulana' (plural) and 'Maulvi' (singular) convey the same meaning: ‘our master.’ Showing respect to others is not an act of shirk.
