Zeeshan Rasool Khan

On 19th February 2019, a man peerless in every aspect, a flawless son, a wonderful father, a great friend, a compassionate mentor, and above all a man true to himself and to others passed away leaving a void never to be filled. Molana Mushtaq Ahmad Khan, born on 19th April 1951 in Seer Hamdan, was known to masses for different reasons. He rose to fame as a religious scholar, an orator, and a poet. But his personal life equally deserves due consideration. He was a perfect example of being a human, holding all the attributes that one ought to hold. His life can serve as a guide for all and any.

And the failure of this (commendable) effort proved there is a need for some other strategy that could cater to need of the needy people in

                 A TRIBUTE TO THE LEGEND:  MOLANA MUSHTAQ AH KHAN   Death is inevitable. Every living creature has to bid farewell to this materialistic life and humans are no exception. Some people, however; acquire eternity by leaving indelible imprints on the hearts and minds of people. They leave the world but always remain associated with masses in one way or the other; evidencing the saying, ‘Legends never die’. On the fateful day of 19 Feb 2019, one such person namely ‘Molana Mushtaq Ahmad Khan’ disappeared from the sights of his thousands of followers, family, and comrades, leaving behind a great legacy that can never be disremembered. The title ‘Molana’ mostly makes the present generation averse but the case of Molana Mushtaq Ahmad Khan is quite different. A cursory view of Molana’s biography inspires and captivates people irrespective of their ideologies.
