any info on this famous aalim?
From what little I know, he was a graduate of Nadwa and one of the senior Ulema of India in his time and a contemporary and good friend of Allamah Anwar Shah Kashmiri Sahib (rahmatullahialay). I think he was a student of Allamah Abdal Hayy Lukhnowi (rahmatullahialay).
"Whoever acts upon what he knows, Almighty Allah bestows upon himthe knowledge of things not known to him"(Fazaa'il-e-A'maal, Virtues of the Holy Qur'an, Part 1, under Hadith 8)

He has written very popular (short) biographies of many Sahabah as well.
All i know is he is a great scholar and he wrote on the Seerah of the prophet.
