Khalid Saifullah Rahmani was born in November 1956.[5] He is the nephew of Islamic scholar and jurist, Mujahidul Islam Qasmi.[5] He received his primary education at home and studied at Madrasa Qasimul Uloom Hussainia for two years. He graduated from Jamia Rahmani in Munger and studied "dawra-e-hadith" (the hadith class of Dars-e-Nizami) again at Darul Uloom Deoband, and graduated from there in 1395 AH.[6] He later specialized in Islamic law and jurisprudence at Amarat-e-Sharia, Patna. His teachers include Sharif Hasan Deobandi, Mahmood Hasan Gangohi, Naseer Ahmad Khan, Nizamuddin Azami, Anzar Shah Kashmiri, and Muhammad Salim Qasmi. Rahmani also benefitted from his uncle Mujahidul Islam Qasmi.[6]

In 1398 AH, Rahmani started to teach at Madrasa Sabeelus-Salam, where he was appointed head teacher in 1399 AH.
