Muhammad Masihullah Khan Sherwani Jalalabadi (Urdu: محمد مسیح الله خان شیروانی جلال آبادی; 1911/1912 – 13 November 1992) was an Indian Deobandi Islamic scholar known as an authority in Sufism.
[1] Muhammad Masihullah Khan was born in 1329 or 1330 AH (1911/1912) in Sarai Barla, a village in the Aligarh district of Uttar Pradesh, India.
[4] He developed a close companionship with Muhammad Ilyas Kandhalvi, who introduced him to the books and lectures of Ashraf Ali Thanwi.
[8] His teachers at Deoband Seminary included Husain Ahmad Madani, Izaz Ali Amrohi, Asghar Hussain Deobandi, Ibrahim Balyawi, Rasool Khan Hazarvi, and Murtaza Hasan Chandpuri.
But within a few years, due to the hard work of Masihullah, this madrasa started to be counted among the big Islamic seminars in India.
