Description	Maulana Shah Wasiullah Fatehpuri seated among his disciples during a religious gathering.
Source	Original publication: Historical photograph circulated privately; later shared online. Immediate source: Shared by Uwais Namazi (@WazirChangezi) on X (formerly Twitter), 18 April 2012. https://x.com/WazirChangezi/status/192397219406688257
Date	18 April 2012
Author	Unknown
Article	Wasiullah Fatehpuri
Portion used	Entire image is used as it is necessary for identification.
Low resolution?	Yes
Purpose of use	Infobox identification of the subject of a biographical article. Additional: Visual identification of the subject in a biographical article.
Replaceable?	The subject of this image is deceased so creation of a free replacement would be difficult if not impossible. No freely licensed photographs of Maulana Shah Wasiullah Fatehpuri are known to exist. Historical images are rare and held in private or religious collections.
Other information	The image is used only once, at low resolution, as the primary visual identification of the subject in a single biographical article. The subject has been deceased since 25 November 1967. The photograph has circulated online with claims identifying the setting as a teaching session of Mishkat al-Maṣābīḥ; however, this identification has been disputed. In a public response, Islamic scholar Yasir Nadeem al Wajidi stated that, upon inquiry from the subject’s grandson, the image does not depict such a teaching session. The precise context of the photograph therefore remains uncertain. https://x.com/Mufti_Yasir/status/478586873980653568
