His extensive experience of teaching advanced students of Islamic Sciences. As the Head of the Department of Hadith he regard this discipline as having a unique status among all disciplines of religious knowledge and consider it the most distinguished. Due to this exclusivity and its critical role for the formation of other Islamic disciplines (for example, its indispensability for the constructs of fiqh) teaching Hadith has given him the opportunity to have profound knowledge of virtually all areas in general and in particular the discipline of exegesis of the Holy Qur’an, and transmitting this knowledge further to his students.

Notable Achievements2022-09-18T11:44:07+00:00

He established a chain of educational institutions in the country. While at present more than 60 institutions are operating (which include magnificent dar-ul-ulooms for dars-e-nizami and hifz in Ali Pur, Kot Khalifa, Ghaus Pur, Majidabad and Uch Sharif), his most notable achievement would be the establishment of an academic institution, Al-Jamiatul Islamia tul Arabia Al-Aalamia, in Multan. The inspiration for this most cherished ambition is to establish an institution, which would be reminiscent of Bayt al Hikma of the glorious times of Muslims for the revival of all disciplines of knowledge. Work on this remarkable institution is in progress in the suburbs of Multan on a 14.5-acre piece of land.

In parallel with his efforts for renaissance of Islamic knowledge, He has embarked on a mission of spiritual cleansing for the general public. For several years weekly Friday afternoon meetings are held at Shahi Eid Gah, Multan where several thousand people gather to collectively recite Durood-e-Bahr-ul-Kamal and Durood-e-Muhammadia Kabir, two duroods written and compiled by him.
