Thanks brother. I am heartened to see so much support here on PDF for my teacher and family friend, Dr. Israr Ahmad. He used to visit us and was close to my father especially. I was still a young child, and while playing or doing shararte in masjid with my friends, somehow his ideas, thoughts, and mindset seeps into me and my understanding of life.
Later on in life, I became so enthralled by his miraculous vision and studied him in detail. I used to attend his lectures and talk with him. I met so many scholars in this way. He was always a kind and loving person in his daily life, without any harshness in anyway.
When he spoke, his eyes became big and his voice became thunderous, when he mentioned Allah swt and Muhammad saws you could feel the love in his heart and words. When he mentioned Pakistan, you keep feel his intense love for our country.
He quoted Quaid e Azam and Allama Iqbal RA alayhim like how Zakir Naik quotes scriptures. His knowledge was so vast in this field. He manifested a holistic Islamic patriotic vision of Pakistan, without any disconnect.
May Allah swt bless him in Firdous w Aala. Men like this only come around once in a while.
Ameen.
Dr. Israr Sahib has done tremendous work especially for research. I have utmost respects for him.
