## Early life and education

Khan was born on 19 April 1935 at the home of his maternal grandfather in the village of Chhaychir in [Pakundia](/source/Pakundia_Upazila), [Kishoreganj District](/source/Kishoreganj_District), [Bengal Province](/source/Bengal_Presidency). His mother's name was Mosammat Rabeya Khatun. Khan belonged to a [Bengali Muslim](/source/Bengali_Muslim) family originally from Ansarnagar in [Gafargaon](/source/Gafargaon_Upazila), [Mymensingh District](/source/Mymensingh_District). His father, Hakim Ansaruddin Khan, was an educationist and *[moulvi](/source/Moulvi)*.[9]

Khan passed *Aalim* in 1951 and *Fazil* in 1953 from the madrasa. In 1953, he was admitted to [Govt. Madrasah-e-Alia, Dhaka](/source/Govt._Madrasah-e-Alia%2C_Dhaka) where he studied under [Abdur Rahman Kashgari](/source/Abdur_Rahman_Kashgari) and other schoalrs. In 1955, Khan received the *Kamil* degree in [Hadith](/source/Hadith) and in 1956 he got a *Kamil* degree in [fiqh](/source/Fiqh) from the madrasa.[10][11]

## Career

Khan edited *Weekly Naya Jamana* in 1960, *Monthly Dishari* from 1963 to 1970. From 1961 until his death, he served as the editor of *Monthly Madina* and *Aaj* (Today).[12] Khan was appointed a member of the central executive committee of Saudi-based international organization Rabataye Aalame Islami in 1988.[13] He has been honored as a well-known writer in [West Bengal](/source/West_Bengal), [Assam](/source/Assam), [Tripura](/source/Tripura).[10] He was the president of Mutamar al-Alam Al-Islami Bangladesh unit, the founder chairman of the Jatiya Seerat Committee of Bangladesh,[14] the chairman of the Nastik-Murtad Protirud Andolon Islami Murcha, and the leader of Jamiate Ulamae Islam.[15][6][7]

Khan co-operated and assisted the Bengali freedom fighters during the [Bangladesh Liberation War](/source/Bangladesh_Liberation_War) of 1971.[16] In December 1976, the [Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam Bangladesh](/source/Jamiat_Ulema-e-Islam_Bangladesh) held a conference at the [Patuakhali Jame Mosque](/source/Patuakhali_District) in which [Azizul Haque](/source/Azizul_Haque_(scholar%2C_born_1919)) was made the party's president and Khan as its general-secretary.

## Works

Khan translated Al-Ghazali's *Ihyau Ulumuddin* and Abul Kalam Azad's *Insaniat Mawt ki Darwaje Por (The form of humanity in the face of death)*. His established *Madina Publications* has published 600 quality books from the year 1957 in various subjects including the [Quran](/source/Quran), [Hadith](/source/Hadith), Seerat-e Rasool, history, tradition and dictionary.[24]
