Faizul Waheed was an authority in Islamic jurisprudence and an exegete of the Quran.[5] He translated the Qur'ān into Gojri language and owned the credit of being its first translator in that language.[5] He had penned the translation and the exegesis of the Qur'ān during his imprisonment.[3] In November 2018, he said while speaking at a convention in Gool, Ramban that "the success of every person is concealed in the Qur'ān".[7]
