Literary career
He started writing around in 1934, and participated in a mushaira in Calcutta (now Kolkata) where he recited his first-ever ghazal presided over an Urdu poet Raza Ali Wahsat. Besides gazals, a few of his poetic conversations appear emotional and imaginative. He used to criticise wars through his poetry. In 1971, he wrote about East Pakistan (in modern-day Bangladesh), and covered historical events of the war. Later, he opposed military conflicts occurring in East Bengal through one of his poetry collections titled the tragedy of East Bengal.[5][6][7]
Prior to writing about 1971, he wrote an Urdu poetry collection titled Zairo Bam in January 1952, and his house in Peshawar was subsequently raided by the local police who arrested him for his not-known involvement in keeping the formula of an explosive device called "zero bomb". He was also imprisoned, and later displaced for writing about politics involving plural society and social justice. In 1991, he wrote a book titled Tahrik-i Azadi Aur Baca Khan (Freedom movement and Bacha Khan)[c] on a Pashtun activist Abdul Ghaffar Khan covering his independence struggle and political movements carried out during the period of partition. The book was later published by the University of California on 5 March 2007.[4][8]
