Muntakhab al-tawarikh 182: LXIV. Maulana Muhammad the Mufti.

182

He is one of the most respected teachers of Lahor. He is endowed with many perfect qualities, and is employed as Mufti. On each occasion on which he completes the perusal of the Sahih-i-Bukhari or the Mishkat he gives a great entertainment, regaling his guests with bughra-khanis and sweetmeats. His assembly is the meeting-place of the most learned men. The Maulana, 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.
