Syed Ahmad Saeed Kazmi (1913 – June 4, 1986, Urdu: سید احمد سعید کاظمی) was scholar and Sufi living in Multan. He is known for his contribution to the Pakistan Movement, Urdu translation and explanation (Tafseer) of Quran, and Dars-e-Hadith. His tomb sits next to Multan's 18th century Shahi Eid Gah Mosque.
Syed Ahmed Saeed Kazmi was born at Mohalla Katkoi, Amroha (India) on Thursday, 13 March 1913 (04 Rabi-us-Sani 1331 Hijri). His father Syed Muhammad Mukhtar Ahmad Shah Kazmi died when Ahmed Saeed was still an infant. The family relates with Musa Kazim through 35 steps, and this is why he is called Kazmi.
Ahmad Saeed Kazmi was only six years old when his father died at the age of 39. Therefore his eldest brother Muhammad Khalil Kazmi brought him up. Because all of his family members were highly educated, he got his basic education from his mother. Later on his uncle gave him Sanad-e-Hadith and Sufist education. He became renowned of his knowledge at a very early age.
