Muḥammad In‘āmul-Ḥasan Kāndhlawī (20 February 1918  10 June 1995) was an Indian Islamic scholar who served as the Chief leader or Amir of the Tablighi Jamaat from 1965 to 1995.[1][2]

Early life and career

Inamul Hasan was born on 20 February 1918 in Kandhla town, near Saharanpur, Uttar Pradesh, India. He received his basic religious education at Madrassa Kashif-ul-Uloom Nizamuddin New Delhi and then at Mazahir Uloom Saharanpur and then spent the rest of his life working for Tablighi Jamat.

He married Sheikh ul Hadith Muhammad Zakariya Kandhlawi's second daughter. He was appointed the third Ameer (leader) of Tablighi Jamaat by Sheikh-ul-Hadith after the death of Muhammad Yusuf Kandhlawi in 1965 and served over 30 years as the leader of Tablighi Jamaat until his death in 1995.[1]

Death and legacy

Inamul Hasan Kandhlawi died on 10 June 1995. He was well-versed in the ilm-e-Hadith (knowledge of the traditions of Muhammad). During his term, he made a Shura (an advisory body and a consultative system) in every country where the Jamaat was active for smooth functioning of the mission. He discharged his responsibility as the Amir of Tablighi Jamaat with foresight and courage. The then Prime Minister of India PV Narasimha Rao condoled his death.[1]
