أخبرني الشيخ إحسان إلهي ظهير رحمه الله عن شيخنا محمد الجوندلوي أنه كان لا يقرأ الجرائد والمجلات حتى لا يحفظها! لأنه كان إذا قرأ شيئاً حفظه
— أ.د. عاصم القريوتي Prof Dr Alqaryooti (@alqaryooti) August 30, 2012
Shaykh Dr. ‘Aasim al-Qaryooti said:
Shaykh Ihsaan Ilaahee Zaheer informed me about our Shaykh, Muhammad al-Gondalwi that he would not read the newspapers or magazines – so as not to [inadvertantly] memorise them! That is because if he were to read anything, he was [instantly] able to memorise it.
