About The Book

شاد عظیم آبادی کا شمار اردو کے کلاسیکی شعرأ میں ہوتا ہے ۔ انہوںنے نثر اور نظم میں پچاسوں کتابیں یادگار چھوڑی ہیں ،جن سے ان کی گونا گوں خوبیوں کا علم ہوتا ہے ۔ ساتھ ہی یہ بھی محسوس ہوتا ہے کہ شاد اپنی ذات سے ایک انجمن تھے ۔ انہوں نے اردو شاعری کی بیشتر اصناف میں طبع آزمائی کی ہے لیکن ان کی شخصیت کا اصل جوہر غزلوں ہی میں کھلتا ہے ۔ شادؔ کا شعری لہجہ منفرد بھی ہے اور موثربھی ۔ ان کی شاعری ایک طرف دبستان لکھنؤ سے کسب فیض کرتی ہے تو دوسری طرف دبستان دہلی کی شعری خصوصیات بھی اپناتی ہے ۔ وہ اگر قدیم شعری لہجے کی پیروی کرتے نظر آتے ہیں تو اپنے دور کے جدید طرز اظہار سے بھی پوری طرح آشنا ہیں ۔"میخانہ الہام" شاد عظیم آبادی کا دیوان ہے جس کو حمید عظیم آبادی نے مرتب کیا ہے ۔ یہ دیوان 1922 مطابق 1357 ہجری میں مرتب کیا گیا ، کتاب کے آخر میں حمید عظیم آبادی نے اس دیوان کے طباعت کے حوالے سے تاریخی قطعہ بھی پیش کیا جس سے سے اس دیوان کا ہجری سن نکلتا ہے۔

About The Author

Shad Azimabadi was born Syed Ali Mohammad in Azeemabad, now Patna. He received traditional education rather early in his life and learnt Urdu, Persian, and Arabic. This was followed by his own studies of Islam and other religions which turned him into a liberal humanist. Although Shad hailed from an affluent family, he cared less for riches, and even lesser for the sources of his future sustenance. Following the general practice of poets in making, he too received counselling on his poetry from several master craftsmen. As he emerged as a poet of remarkable merit and a sound scholar, he earned the title of Khan Bahadur from the British government, with a monthly stipend of a thousand rupees.

Shad was essentially a poet of the ghazal tradition. He was no philosopher; nor did he have a taste for stereotypical themes but he distinguished himself on account of his refreshing ideas and novel ways of expression. He engaged with issues in ethics, philosophy, and mysticism, as he deliberated on the unity of God. Following Mir Anis, the celebrated poet of marsiya, he also practised this form. A full time poet and writer, Shad has left behind a huge amount of literary works. Some of them include a biography called Hayaat-e Faryaad, a historical tract called Nawa-i-Watan, collected poems entitled Kulliyaat-e Shad and Maikhana-i-Ilhaam, and an account of marsiya poets, called Fikr-e Baleegh.
