==Early life and career==
Zubair-ul-Ḥasan was born on 30 March 1950 in the town of [[Kandhla]] in present-day [[Muzaffarnagar district]], [[Uttar Pradesh]], [[India]]. He studied at [[Mazahir Uloom Saharanpur]], Uttar Pradesh, India.<ref name=IndianExpress/> He was a disciple, and subsequently a ''khaleefa'' (an accredited successor) of his eminent maternal grandfather Shaikh-ul-Hadees Maulana [[Muhammad Zakariyya al-Kandhlawi]] who was also a celebrated Muslim leader and was an early and life-long booster of Tablighi Jamaat. Zubair graduated and completed his education in 1971. Maulana Zubair was the leader of the concluding prayers at the world congregations held annually at [[Bishwa Ijtema]] [[Dhaka]], [[Raiwind]] and [[Bhopal]].<ref name=IndianExpress/><ref name=twocircles/>

Due to his obesity, he was often seen in a wheelchair. He was largely known for his concluding prayers rather than his long addresses and speeches in front of large gatherings as Jamaat leaders before him, including his father used to be known for.<ref name=twocircles/>

He was initially a member of the council of scholars (''International Tablighi Shura'') which was elected to run the affairs of Tablighi Jamaat after the death of his father Maulana [[Inamul Hasan Kandhlawi]]. After his death, his burial was at [[Nizamuddin Dargah]] grounds in [[New Delhi]].<ref name=twocircles/><ref name=Siasat/>

==Death, survivors and legacy==
In 1969, Maulana Zubair ul Hassan married Tahira Khatoon, daughter of Al-hafiz Ilyas of Shahranpur, one of the sons-in-law of [[Muhammad Zakariyya al-Kandhlawi]]. The couple had three sons and three daughters. The eldest son, Hafiz Maulana Zuhair-ul-Hasan Kandhlawi, has become a well-known negotiator of the Tabligh movement. Reportedly Zubair was obese, diabetic and not in good health for some time. According to [[New Delhi]] police estimates, nearly 200,000 people turned up at his funeral.<ref name=twocircles/><ref name=Siasat/><ref name=IndianExpress>[https://indianexpress.com/article/cities/delhi/tablighi-jamaat-ameer-dies-thousands-turn-up-for-his-funeral-procession-at-nizamuddin/ Tablighi Jamaat Ameer dies, thousands turn up for his funeral procession at Nizamuddin] The Indian Express (newspaper), Published 19 March 2014, Retrieved 27 February 2020</ref>

" He remained non-political throughout his life and only concerned himself with matters of religion."<ref name=IndianExpress/><ref name=twocircles/>
