Hazrat Mufti Ebrahim Desai as a student of sheikhul hadeeth Hazrat Moulana Fazlurrahmaan Azmi sahib hafizahullah. Mufti Ebrahim desai sahib writes:- Moulana Fazlurrahmaan is my teacher and I began studying under him at Jāmiʿa Islāmiyya Dabhel in 1984. In 1985 I studied Safīnat al-bulaghāʾ and Qutbī in the fourth year [of the course] and the second volume of Hidāya in the fifth year. The effect of Shaykh al-Ḥadīth’s unique style was such that I memorised more or less every poem. When the lesson of al-ashkāl al-arbaʿa came in Qutbī (a notoriously difficult section in which the order of the words plays a hugely important role) a student requested Shaykh al-Ḥadīth to deliver the lesson in Arabic. He obliged and taught the entire lesson in fluent Arabic. Then in 1997 I was given the final ten portions of the second volume of [Ṣaḥīḥ al-]Bukhārī to teach in Madrasah Taleemuddeen, Isipingo Beach. Then In 1998, I was reading Shaykh al-Ḥadīth’s Hadiyyat al-darārī ( Introduction to bukhari) during the last ten days of Ramaḍān. When I finished the book and was resting after Fajr I dreamt of Imām Bukhārī (may Allāh have mercy on him). He was clothed in green but his features and form was that of sheikhul hadeeth(may Allāh protect him). I also saw Ḥājī Bhāi Padia3 (may Allāh have mercy on him) in the dream and he was reading something, though I can’t recall exactly what he was reciting. Good dreams are from Allāh and I relay it in good faith. Had I not dreamt this, it would not have made the least bit of difference in my opinion of sheikhul hadeeth. Rahmaniyyah
