Hazratjee Moulana Maseehullah Khan Saheb (rahmatullahi ‘alaih) went to school in his hometown, Barlah, and then moved onto Aligarh to continue with his education. He completed up to grade six. He always excelled in his class and would very often take the first position. However since his heart was not inclined towards worldly education, his father then took him out of school and engaged him in Deeni ta’leem.
Even whilst he was in school, he was extremely punctual in performing his salaah with jamaat. Once Hazratjee (rahmatullahi ‘alaih) mentioned, “Our school would terminate at 12:30 pm. Near our school was a small musjid. Daily I would go to the musjid after school and perform my Zuhr Salaah with jamaat.”
