This isnad has been the best isnad for the last few hundred years. People from all over the world from Morocco, from Syria, from Iraq, from Haramayn al-Sharifayn they always used to say that there is no isnad better than this Indian isnad. Everybody who you could ask [would say so] because this was the isnad of the biggest ‘ulama.
