There was a deep sense of sophistication in Qazi Sahib's life as well as in his writings. He was very elated about dressing, food, and life. In the same way, he proves his subtlety in writing by choosing each word very thoughtfully and employing a simple, reader-friendly expression. It is a feature of Qazi's prose writing. The use of selected poems is very common among his writings. Most essays begin with a poem and usually end with a couplet.
