Ideals
I recently had a chance to come to know one of the great writers of Pakistan, Ibne Safi.
He has an ability to engage his reader and take him to places in his mind and than when reader finishes the novel, he has the urge to create exact environment in real. His protagonist obeys, respect the law and makes those around him to do so too. I think about how many minds he revolutionized. How much he changed the society. I am sure he put large amount of effort in salvaging the society and help people to take it to this far. His writings are timeless. They can be used by every individual of any age. He rightly read his times and the way he changed the track of thought of especially young minds is marvellous. His writing proves that he was of the men who don't complaint about circumstances rather stand up and remove the filth silently and efficiently. Their efforts speak of their ache and love for their society, their people.

ReplyDeleteGreetings,

It immediately makes me want to learn much more about Ibne Safi. It conveys to me that he had the ability to influence others in a positive way who then go on to acting on this positive influence.

DeleteSalaam,
ReplyDeleteYour brief note packs a lot of power in it. It correctly captured the essence of Ibne Safi's personality and his message. Every time I read a novel, I learn a new thing which I had missed in previous reading... After so many years of his demise, we are still blessed with his wisdom and power to guide.
Congratulations on writing such a beautiful note.
