Early Life
Allama Khalid Masud was born in Lilla, Jhelum District, Pakistan. He belonged to a religious family, which is a branch of a local sufi school of thought, Naqshbandi Mujjaddadi. But he and his father, Saif U Rehman, both were not under influence of sufism and they concentrated mainly towards Qur'an and Sharia. He learnt basics of Arabic and Persian from his father Saif U Rehman who was an Arabic teacher at his time.

“In ‘70 he married again, and I having, voluntarily, assumed the legal guilt of breaking my marriage contract, do cheerfully accept the legal penalty—a life of celibacy—bringing no charge against him who was my husband, save that he was not much better than the average man.”
