What the sources give, exactly: the lead of the English article calls him an 'Indian Sunni Islamic scholar' and the Urdu article's lead calls him a Sunni scholar in text — the Urdu article follows the English, so the two texts are ONE family. The religious-biography infobox module carried by both the English and Urdu editions (one infobox family) gives denomination Sunni, jurisprudence Hanafi and creed Maturidi. Sunni is therefore named by two families and is recorded documented. The Hanafi school and the Maturidi creed are named ONLY by the infobox family, so no sunni-hanafi segment is recorded and both rest in this note, the Imam Shamil pattern. His Deobandi affiliation is attested at filing level — the Deobandis categories of all three editions and the English article's 'List of Deobandis' see-also — and by his formation under Kifayatullah Dihlawi at Madrasa Aminia in Delhi; a movement affiliation and a formation are not school attestations and were never counted. Wikidata carries no religion value for him at all. If the founder counts only text traditions, this segment falls to unknown.",
