TheRamadan of Shaykh Al-Hadith Ml ZakariyyaKandelwi by Dr Muhammad Ismail Memon Madani

Ramadan of the Elders
My uncle departed for his third hajj in the first days of Ramađān.
‘Alī Miāń writes in the biography, “He went for hajj the third time
in 1351/1933. The moon was sighted in Niżām al-Dīn. Ĥađrat
prayed his first tarāwīĥ in Delhi railway station and boarded the
train to Karachi after tarāwīĥ.”
I was also there to see my uncle off. After stowing his luggage on
the train, my uncle led tarāwīĥ in the station. In addition to those
who came to see Ĥađrat off, many of the locals from Dehli also
stood behind Ĥađrat in tarāwīĥ. Some people prayed tarāwīĥ in
their masjids, then joined Ĥađrat, since tarāwīĥ started early in the
masjids while Ĥađrat started late because he was busy putting his
luggage on the train. He started with Sūrat al-Baqara and recited
calmly as if he was leading in his own masjid. The train was late
because of which the departure time was delayed for an hour and
fifteen minutes.
My uncle always raised the subject of tablīgh much like Shaikh
Yūsuf [even now, thousands of people are witness to this]. It was
his habit regardless of what he was doing, whether he was eating,
drinking or wherever he was, on the train or at the railway station,
he was always talking about tablīgh.
Muĥammad Thānī writes in Sawāniĥ-e-Yūsufī [Biography of
Shaikh Yūsuf ], that Ĥađrat was very particular about the month of
Ramadan. Many tablīgh groups came in from Mewāt to the center
of tablīgh, Niżām al-Dīn, while many others were dispatched to
different places; local tablīgh work was also stepped up.e
