Autobiography of the writer Al-Ustad Abu Anas Ahmad Wahaj Al-Siddiqui Al-Taimi Al-Qurshi Legal adviser
After the degree of Bachelor of Laws from Karachi University I aspired to study Islam. I started my studies in Madrasah Fakhr-al-Uloom in the Mosque of Palmer lines Rawalpindi from Al-Sheikh Al-Imam Al-Hafiz Al-Khateeb Ghulam Haider. I studied Arabic, Al-Hadith, and Islamic Jurisprudence and other subjects for about more than four years. Then I participated in Dawa and Irshad for a number of years. After the death of Al-Imam Al-Khateeb Abdul Hannan, I took over as Khateeb for Juma’a prayers in the Mosque of Bhoosa Mandi for a number of years. Allah favored me to perform Umrah in 1961 and Hajj in 1964..
A day I saw in a vision that I am standing by the grave of The Prophet Muhammad (sallallaho alaihi wasallam). The grave opened I descended in the grave by his foot. I saw the Noor glistening like beams from his entire blessed body. He opened his hands as if to embrace me.
After two or three months My wife Shamim Fatimah saw in a vision that I am standing before the Prophet (sallallaho alaihi wasallam) and in my hands a Thaub which I wish to present him. He took the Thaub from my hand and wearing it, he embraced me.
In a third vision My daughter Naima saw that the Prophet(sallallaho alaihi wasallam) entered our house. I am standing with a pitcher to give him a drink. He drank. then he took me my wife and my daughter Naima three of us to Islamabad. We offered Eid prayers behind him. This was the preamble and glad tidings for me to join work in the Ministry of Trade and Commerce and after more than a year I was selected to be assistant of the Commercial Secretary at Jeddah by the end of 1969. This way Allah by His mercy made me resident of this holy Land.
I took my stay at Makkah-al-Mukarramah. Here I took to writing. I wrote the Book ‘Nabi-al-Anbia’ three volumes in Urdu. Then I wrote two volumes in English under the name of the ‘Chief of the Prophets’. The first volume I devoted refuting the apostate groups etc., and the second volume I devoted to the Quran and science. These two volumes are on the website www.the quran and science.com.
These two volumes were greatly appreciated by the readers which include my articles published in Muslim World League Journal, Arab News and Saudi Gazette. These two volumes have been visited by 220,000 persons so far...
There after I started to write the Tafsir (commentary) of the Quran. It is conspicuous for being written for the first time in two languages, English and Arabic and It is based on the traditions (Ahadith) of the Prophet (peace be upon him) as reported by his companions Sahaba etc.
Amazingly, it proves the modern science in the Quran when the word science was unknown in seventh century. This is the very first commentary in English based on the report of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and of his companions i.e. Sahaba. I devoted 35 years of my life in completion of ten volumes. In a vision the Prophet (peace be upon him) called me by my name Wahhaj. So I named it TafsiralQuranalwahhaj.com
