sho_shweet 657 Posted August 25, 2012 Biography: Faraz was born in Kohat, Pakistan to Syed Muhammad Shah Barq. His brother is Syed Masood Kausan. In an interview with Rediff he recalls how his father, once bought clothes for him on Eid. He didn't like the clothes meant for him, but preferred the ones meant for his elder brother. This lead him to write his first couplet: سب کے واسطے لائے ہیں کپڑے سیل سے لائے ہیں میرے لیے قیدی کا کمبل جیل سے Sab kay waste laye hein kaprye sale se Laye hein mere liye qaidi ka kambal jail se (He brought clothes for everybody from the sale) (For me he brought a blanket from jail) His parents asked him once to learn mathematics from a class fellow during the summer vacation. But he was weak in mathematics and geography, he didn't remember maps and roads. He moved to Peshawer with entire family. Studied in famous Edwards college, Peshawar and then did his Masters in Urdu and Persion from Peshawer University During his time in college, Faiz ahmed faiz and Ali sardar jaferi were the best progressive poets, who impressed him and became his role models. Literary and Political life: Ahmad Faraz was arrested for reciting poems that criticized military ruler-ship in Pakistan during the Zia ul haq era. Following that arrest he went into a self-imposed exile. He stayed for 6 years in Britain, Canada and Europe before returning to Pakistan, where he was initially appointed Chairman Academy of Letters and later chairperson of the Islamabad-based National bank foundation for several years. He has been awarded with numerous national and international awards. In 2006, he returned the Hilal-e-Imtiaz award he was given in 2004. "My conscious will not forgive me if I remained a silent spectator of the sad happenings around us. The least I can do is to let the dictatorship know where it stands in the eyes of the concerned citizens whose fundamental rights have been usurped. I am doing this by returning the Hilal-e-imtiaz (civil) forthwith and refuse to associate myself in any way with the regime..." a statement issued by the poet. About his current writings he says: "I now only write when I am forced to from the inside." Maintaining a tradition established by his mentor, the revolutionary Faiz ahmed faiz, he wrote some of his best poetry during those days in exile. Famous amongst poetry of resistance has been "Mahasara". Faraz was also mentioned by actor Shahzada Ghaffar in the pothwai telefilm "Khai Aye O". Despite his deteriorating health, he was quite active in the Judicial crisis, in 2007. He joined personally the lawyers to protest against the government, and also encouraged his colleagues to do the same. Death: Faraz died from Kidney failure in a local Islamabad hospital on 25 August 2008. His funeral was held on the evening of 26th, by many admirers and government officials at H-8 Graveyard, Islamabad, Pakistan. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
