He studied the Islamic sciences under , the Qadi of Gopamau, in Hindustan.[2] After that, he joined the halaqa of Mir Zahid Harawi (d. 1689) who was one of the teachers of Shah Abdur Rahim that was serving as a Qadi at the Mughal imperial court. He benefitted a lot from this teacher.[3] Thereafter, Salih became a teacher of Islamic studies himself. Among his many students was , the son of his former teacher Shihab ad-Din, who also became a Qadi.
