Hakeem Noor-ud-Deen The Way of the Righteous 94 and the Nawab learnt the whole of the Holy Qur'an from Hakeem Sahib. In addition to the teaching of the Holy Qur'an, Hakeem Sahib also initiated Dars-i-Qur'an , which was a boon to a large number of local people. As Nawab Sahib belonged to the Shia School of Thought , Hakeem Sahib had encounters with Shia scholars. Hakeem Sahib recounts one of such encounters in Mirqaatul Yaqeen (p. 268): Once in a meeting with the Shia scholar of Malir Kotla, Maulavi Sheikh Ahmad Sahib, Mujtahid (a person who goes to great pain in explaining and finding out answers to finer points of Islam), I asked whether he was of the view as some of the Shia scholars believe that some additions had been made to the Holy Qur'an by inserting some verses. The Sheikh asserted that no verse had been added to the Holy Qur'an, although it was possible that some verses had been eliminated or the order had been changed. Then I quoted a verse from Chapter 110 Yad-kholuna fi Deenillahi Afwaajaa (entering the religion of Allah in troops) and said that the Prophet of Islam had seen troops entering Islam. “ Could you quote one instance according to Shia belief when a troop, or a detachment of a troop, or a simple detachment, or even ten or fifteen people entered the fold of Islam? ” This question was very difficult for the Shia scholar to answer. The reason is that according to Shia beliefs, there were only two or three momineen (believers) in addition to Hadhrat Ali ra , who entered the fold of Islam. And the Shia scholar was very much confused and upset and maintained, "There is a need for an explanation of the word Izaa that occurs in the beginning of the surah," whereupon Hakeem Sahib suggested to him that just say, "We do not know the meaning of Izaa. " Thereafter, Maulavi Sheikh Ahmad Sahib wrote that he did not know the meaning of Izaa. Subsequently, there was an uproar and the people questioned Maulavi Sheikh Ahmad Sahib how he was a mujtahid when he even did not know the meaning of a simple word Izaa.
