People who donrt understand the logic and depth they start putting fatwas.Brelvi ulemas were with British Empire while Deobandi were against British Empire so when Jauhar, Zafar and Iqban have written agaginst British Empire, thier imperilaism so this fight started,it happens in history, not a big deal... Iqbal also said something like that

Merai Junoo ko hai terai wajood sai gila
Apnai liyai La-Maka merai liyai Char Soo



Iqbal Junoo and Ishq cross all boundaries of Khirad(aqal) and His Khudi doesnt care about anything.
