Education
Born in Jhelum, Punjab, Khan received his intermediate education from there and attended University of the Punjab in 1964. He received his BA in mathematics in 1966. The same year, he was admitted to the graduate school of the Punjab University, and did his MA in mathematics in 1968. With a scholarship awarded in 1974 he travelled to Great Britain to pursue doctoral studies in mathematics. He attended University of Wales at Aberystwyth where, in 1977, he wrote his doctoral thesis on "The Strict Topology and its Generalizations", supervised by K. Rowlands. Following his thesis, he is awarded his PhD. in mathematics in 1977.
Academic career
He joined Government College, Pattoki in 1968 where he served as a lecturer. In 1971, he moved to Islamabad and joined Federal Government College as a lecturer. After his PhD in 1977, he again joined Federal Government College, Islamabad as a lecturer, and was a visiting professor at the Quaid-i-Azam University Islamabad. In 1981 he went to Libya where he joined Garyounis University Benghazi as an assistant professor.

In 1996, he went to Saudi Arabia where he joined King Abdulaziz University Jeddah, as an associate professor. In 2003 became a full professor of mathematics there.
Academic research
He has published a monograph on "Topological Vector Spaces of Continuous Vector-valued Functions". He joined International Centre for Theoretical Physics (ICTP) as a visiting mathematician in 1990s. He has taught undergraduate and post-graduate mathematics. He has been engaged in research on linear topologies on spaces of continuous vector-valued functions, Stone-Weierstrass approximation theorem, best approximation, vector-valued measures and integration, fixed-point theorems, topologies on topological algebras and topological modules, multipliers, derivations and homomorphisms.
