[edit]

Darkhwasti was born in Muharram 1313 AH in Basti Darkhawst near Khanpur. He studied his primary classes under his father and later became a student of Ghulam Muhammad Deenpuri, a disciple of Hafiz Muhammad Siddique. Anwar Shah Kashmiri gave him the title of Hafiz al-Hadees. Darkhwasti was the founder of millions of Islamic Institutions (Madarsas) and Mosque. [4] Darkhwasti died on 28 August 1994. His last rites were performed on the next day and was buried nearby Ubaidullah Sindhi.[5] at historical graveyard of Deenpur Sharif.

He played a key role in getting Qadiyanis declared as non Muslims in Pakistan.[6][5]
