His father was Maulvi Abdul Rahman Khan from Kandahar , Afghanistan while his mother was Iqbal Begum from Pishin in the Baluchistan Province of British India (now in Balochistan, Pakistan ).
Khan's father was a scholar of Islam , a postgraduate in Arabic and Urdu , who opened an Islamic institute in the Netherlands to teach Islam to the local Dutch , and he often tasked Khan to translate books into Arabic . Khan had three brothers, Shams ur Rehman, Fazal Rehman and Habib ur Rehman. His cousin Akbar Khan Kakar hosted a popular show on Radio Pakistan 's Quetta branch. Khan was raised in the Kamathipura neighbourhood of Mumbai after his family moved there from Kabul .
