Obituaries: 16-31 December 2001 Muhammad Fayyaz Khan died on 25 November in Rampur. He was in his early seventies. People like him are not born every day. A man in a class of his own, he was a great philanthropist and tried to use all at his disposal to serve the less endowed people. In a poor city like Rampur where healthcare facilities are still the privilege of the economically better off classes as healthcare infrastructure is almost non-existent and the poor unlike people with lots of money can not imagine going to Delhi or Moradabad for treatment, he established an eye hospital and a maternity centre. It was the best thing one could even imagine in those days of early seventies and even in eighties. A man of even ordinary income could well afford the fee being charged there. It was always minimal. And the same continues even today. Children of a large number of people employed in his bidi factories were provided free education. Even those working there were sometimes provided an opportunity to learn reading and writing through Taleem-e balighan centres. He was also associated with all the social and charitable organizations in the city and was a member of almost all the leading educational societies. Late Maulana Uzair Saibul Mazahiri, a renowned alim who taught Qur’an at Jamiatus Salihat and former senior functionary of Jamaat-e-Islami always stayed at his mansion whenever he was there. The poor in the city who benefited from his philanthropy will never be able to forget Fayyaz Khan Saheb (SU Rahman). |
