He is one of the most respected teachers of Lāhor. He is endowed with many perfect qualities and is employed as Muftī. On each occasion on which he completes the perusal of the Ṣaḥīḥu-l-Bukhārī* or the Mishkāt* he gives a great entertain­ment, regaling his guests with bughrā khānīs* and sweetmeats. His assembly is the meeting-place of the most learned men. The Maulānā, now that he has reached the age of ninety years, and is bent and feeble, has given up teaching. He has four or five orthodox sons, all of whom are in learning and accomplish­ments worthy successors of their father.
