Biography

Maqbool Ahmad Mujahid was born in January 1925 in present-day Pakistan, into the respected Abu Zaid family, to Muhammad Din and Hussain Bibi. Although raised in a well-off family of landlords, he chose the path of religious devotion from a young age. Seeking deep Islamic knowledge, he traveled to Delhi, India, for formal Islamic education, where he studied under prominent scholars. After the 1947 partition, he returned to Pakistan and settled in the village of Ghartal Kalan, where he would spend the rest of his life in service to Islam and his community.

Standing at 5 feet 7 inches, he carried a calm presence and was known for his humility, dedication, and piety. He undertook the blessed journey of Hajj twice, first in 1952 and again in 1965, when travel was far more difficult than it is today. Throughout his life, Maqbool Ahmad Mujahid remained committed to spreading Islamic teachings and living a life of righteousness.

Contributions & Achievements

In Ghartal Kalan, he became a pillar of spiritual guidance. He not only educated villagers on Islamic values but also established regular religious gatherings, promoted Islamic education, and personally taught many students. Numerous students of his are now serving as imams and religious scholars across Pakistan and beyond—continuing his mission and spreading the light of Islam. His legacy lives on through their work and the values he instilled in the community.

Maqbool Ahmad Mujahid’s contributions to Islam and his village remain unforgettable. May Allah SWT grant him the highest ranks in Jannah and accept all his efforts for His Deen. We continuously pray for his maghfirat and success in the hereafter. May Allah illuminate his grave, forgive his shortcomings, and reward him with eternal peace in Jannat-ul-Firdaus. Ameen.
