1396/1976) and Shaykh al-Islām Mawlānā Ḥusayn Aḥmad Madanī (d. He studied under great luminaries such as Mawlānā Iʿzāz ʿAlī (d. He travelled to Deoband to complete his studies. ʿAllāmah Ṣāḥib excelled in both the Islamic and worldly sciences. Thus, his early education was acquired in Kasur, and thereafter in Amritsar.
His family originated from Amritsar and his father had moved here for employment. ʿAllāmah Ṣāḥib was born in Kasur, a city to the south of Lahore, where his father Pīr Muḥammad Ganī was a government employee, renowned for his piety. 1403/1983) and many other scholars of that generation, and in this regard his place is among the luminaries of the previous century. ʿAllāmah Ṣāḥib enjoyed a very good relationship with Ḥakīm al-Islām Qārī Muḥammad Ṭayyib (d. “If a fitnah was to emerge at ʿAṣr Ṣalāh time, and ʿAllāmah Ṣāḥib is informed of it and its evidences, he can eliminate it with evidence before sunset.” He was also known for his knowledge on comparative religions and the other Islamic sciences, and was regarded in high esteem by his teachers, contemporaries and students. In 1987, he spent a month in South Africa and made representations to the court on the Qadiyani case. He travelled the world, participated in various conferences, debates and court cases and was a formidable debater against the Qadiyanis, Shiites and other sects.
His writings and books on a range of topics illustrate the depth and breadth of his knowledge and comprehension.
ʿAllāmah Ṣāḥib served the Dīn with great rigour and passion for some seven decades and was renowned for his knowledge of the deviant and misguided groups and defence of the Islamic creed and the Ṣaḥābah (the companions). This is undoubtedly a great loss for the Ummah. It is with great sadness and sorrow we received the news of the demise of 97-year-old, Ḥaḍrat ʿAllāmah Dr Khalid Mahmood Ṣāḥib Raḥimahullāh yesterday morning on 20/21 Ramadan 1441 () in Manchester, UK.
