Ony one source(themuslim500) lists him and that source itself is not a reputed source nor is the organization which publishes that list is notable AFAIK. No other lists mention him as notable. His name does not appear in any other major sources except referring to this one list of 500 notable , the other reputed news sources only fall back to this sole source. I did find some books mentioning him where not much is mentioned about him except that he heads some institutions of the barelvi sect. Summichum (talk) 11:50, 2 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
