As the first study of its kind, Gender, Sexuality and Feminism in Pakistani Urdu Writing (Anthem, 2022) offers a new understanding of progressive women's poetry in Urdu and the legacy of postcolonial politics. It underlines Urdu's linguistic hybridities, the context of the zenana, reform, and rekhti to illustrate how the modernising impulse under colonial rule impacted women as subjects in textual form. It argues that canonical texts for sharif women from Mirat-ul Arus to Umrao Jan Ada need to be looked at alongside women's diaries and autobiographies so that we have an overall picture of gendered lives from imaginative fiction, memoirs and biographies. In the late nineteenth century, ideas of the cosmopolitan and local were in conversation with the secular and sacred across different Indian literatures. Emerging poets from the zenana can be traced back to Zahida Khatun Sherwania from Aligarh and Haya Lakhnavi from Lucknow who had very unique trajectories as sharif women. With the rise of anti-colonial nationalism, the Indian women's movement gathered force and those who had previously been confined to the private sphere took their place in public as speaking subjects. The influence of the Left, Marxist thought and resistance against colonial rule fired the Progressive Writers Movement in the 1930s. The pioneering writer and activist Rashid Jahan was at the helm of the movement mediating women's voices through a scientific and rational lens. She was succeeded by Ismat Chughtai, who like her contemporary Saadat Hasan Manto courted controversy by writing openly about sexualities and class. With the onset of partition, as the progressive writers were split across two nations, they carried with them the vision of a secular borderless world. In Pakistan, Urdu became an ideological ground for state formation, and Urdu writers came under state surveillance in the Cold War era. The study picks up the story of progressive women poets in Pakistan to try and understand their response to emerging dominant narratives of nation, community and gender. How did national politics and an ideological Islamisation that was at odds with a secular separation of church and state affect their writing? Despite the disintegration of the Progressive Writers Movement and the official closure of the Left in Pakistan, the author argues that an exceptional legacy can be found in the voices of distinctive women poets including Ada Jafri, Zehra Nigah, Sara Shagufta, Parvin Shakir, Fahmida Riaz and Kishwar Naheed. Their poems offer new metaphors and symbols borrowing from feminist thought and a hybrid Islamicate culture. Riaz and Naheed joined forces with the women's movement in Pakistan in the 1980s and caused some discomfort amongst Urdu literary circles with their writing. Celebrated across both sides of the border, their poetry and politics is less well known than the verse of the progressive poet par excellence Faiz Ahmed Faiz or the hard hitting lyrics of Habib Jalib. The book demonstrates how they manipulate and appropriate a national language as mother tongue speakers to enunciate a middle ground between the sacred and secular. In doing so they offer a new aesthetic that is inspired by activism and influenced by feminist philosophy. Iqra Shagufta Cheema is a writer, researcher, and chronic procrastinator. When they do write, they write in the areas of postmodernist postcolonial literatures, transnational feminisms, gender and sexuality studies, and film studies.

Habib Jalib (Habib Ahmad, Born 24 March 1928 Hoshiarpur, Punjab, British India Died 12 March 1993 (aged 64) Lahore, Pakistan) was a Pakistani revolutionary poet, left-wing activist who opposed martial law, authoritarianism and state oppression. Pakistani poet Faiz Ahmed Faiz said that he was the poet of the masses. He opposed military coups and administrators and was duly jailed several times. Habib Jalib was born as Habib Ahmad on 24 March 1928 in a village near Hoshiarpur, British India. He migrated to Pakistan after the partition of India. Later he worked as a proofreader for Daily Imroze of Karachi. He was a progressive writer and soon started to grab the audience with his enthusiastic recitation of poetry. He wrote in plain language, adopted a simple style and addressed common people and issues. But the conviction behind his words, the music of his voice and his emotional energy coupled with the sensitivity of the socio-political context is what stirred the audience.

An Urdu poetry recitation.
In this episode we talk about Faiz Ahmed Faiz, a super famous poet who wrote in Urdu and Punjabi. His poetry was innovative and timeless, and the poem we've focused on is the celebrated ہم دیکھیں گے - Hum Dekhenge - We Shall See. We then talk to the brilliant Dr. Rakhshanda Jalil. _____________ Hum Dhekenge: ہم دیکھیں گے لازم ہے کہ ہم بھی دیکھیں گے وہ دن کے جس کا وعدہ ہے جو لوحِ ازل پہ لکھا ہے ہم دیکھیں گے جب ظلم و ستم کے کوہِ گراں روئی کی طرح اُ ڑ جائیں گے ہم محکوموں کے پاوٗں تلے یہ دھرتی دھڑ دھڑ دھڑکے گی اور اہلِ حکم کے سر اوُپر جب بجلی کڑ کڑ کڑکے گی ہم دیکھیں گے جب ارضِ خدا کے کعبہ سے سب بت اُٹھوائے جائیں گے ہم اہلِ صفا مردودِ حرم مسند پر بٹھلائے جائیں گے سب تاج اُچھالے جائیں گے سب تخت گرائے جائیں گے بس نام رہے گا اللہ کا جو غائب بھی ہے حاضر بھی جو منظر بھی ہے ناظر بھی اُٹھے گا انالحق کا نعرہ جو میں بھی ہوں اور تم بھی ہو اور راج کرے گی خلقِ خدا جو میں بھی ہوں اور تم بھی ہو ہم دیکھیں گے لازم ہے کہ ہم بھی دیکھیں گے ہم دیکھیں گے _____________ We shall see Certainly we shall see That promised dawn Etched on the slate of eternity When the crushing mountain of tyranny Will blow away like cotton wool When underneath the feet of the enslaved This earth's beating heart Shall tremble and shake When the lightning Will strike down those who lord over us When from the House of Allah All false gods shall be cast off We the faithful, the dispossessed Will rise to our seat of sovereignty Each crown knocked off, will go Each throne brought down, will go Only Allah's name will reverberate He who is the Seen and the Unseen The Spectacle and the Witness And the cry will rise 'I am the Truth'- And that is me And that is you Now, The Children of God will rule And that is me And that is you _____________ Translator: Zehra Kazmi Guest: Dr. Rakhshanda Jalil Sound Design: Kyra Ho Readers: Shaista Ghazali, Raj Shekar Sen, Sajeea Bhatti, Taniya Hassan, Nia Babaar, Satyabahma Rajoria, Mallika Balakrishnan, and Zehra Kazmi.

Avtar Singh Sandhu "Pash" was a 20th century Indian poet known for his influential and progressive poems who shared the same stature as Bertolt Brecht, Mahmoud Darwish and Faiz Ahmed Faiz for his political overtures in poetry. Like Neruda, he published his first collection when he was only 20 years old. He has often been described as the romantic poet who chose revolution over anything else. Pash's literary career spanned less than two decades, yet the interest in his poems has never waned. In one way or the other, any poetry enthusiast is sure to come upon his poems, now or later. His poetry continues to outlive him. Listen to a powerful recitation of his poem 'Sabse Khatarnak' by Ankush Mehta. Love & Light✨

Presenting to you the nazm, Raqeeb Se by Faiz Ahmed Faiz in Abhinav Bhaskar's voice. This one-of-its-kind poem is addressed by a man to another, who shared his affections for the same woman. It is not always that we get to confront the people who share our experiences but when we do the conversations become an appreciation of the same. Let's hear what our poet has to say about his experience! Love & Light ✨

In this episode, I read a couple of different pieces - excerpts from an essay by Zadie Smith called "Something to do" and a nazm by Faiz Ahmed Faiz called "Kuch ishq kiya, kuch kaam kiya". This is a rather unique episode and a unique pairing. But both of these pieces came to me this week and I couldn't help but connect the dots. It is an experimental episode, one I hope you will like. It is an attempt to understand the significance of time, what constitutes a good definition for work and what does Love have anything to do with either. I doubt you haven't asked these questions of yourself at some point in time. Here's an attempt at stringing together some answers from the stellar artists featured today! The poem I read can be accessed here - https://www.rekhta.org/nazms/kuchh-ishq-kiyaa-kuchh-kaam-kiyaa-kuchh-ishq-kiyaa-kuchh-kaam-kiyaa-faiz-ahmad-faiz-nazms And the Zadie Smith essay excerpts are from - https://www.brainpickings.org/2020/08/13/zadie-smith-intimations-something-to-do/ The host, Ravneet Bawa as - @one_third_above on Instagram @maikeya on Twitter Email: ravneet_bawa@icloud.com Disclaimer: This podcast is created for sharing with friends and family, and only as a passion project amidst the Covid lockdown with no commercial interest.

Faiz in his in inimitable style recounts the beauty and the not so beautiful with the only person who shares the same experience - his rival. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/urdudaan/support

In the distance, there are terrible sorrows, like tides: they draw back, swell, become full, subside. They've turned the horizon to mist. And behind that mist is the city of lights, my city of many lights. How will I return to you, my city, where is the road to your lights? My hopes are in retreat, exhausted by these unlit, broken walls, and my heart, their leader, is in terrible doubt. But let all be well, my city, if under cover of darkness, in a final attack, my heart leads its reserves of longings and storms you tonight. Just tell all your lovers to turn the wicks of their lamps high so that I may find you, Oh city, my city of many lights.
Yet another memoir, as my father used to recite this Nazam "Jiss Dais" by Faiz Ahmed Faiz quite often.

Tina Sani began her journey with music in 1979. Over four decades later, Ms. Sani may be appreciated amongst the leading ghazal singers of the day. A purist by temperament, Sani initiated formal training in Indian classical music with Ustad Nizamuddin Khan Sahib, son of Ustad Ramzan Khan Sahib of Delhi gharana, and later with Ustad Chand Amrohvi. Over time, she merged her commitment to the classical discipline with a native love for Urdu poetry. In this regard, Tina may be seen to follow in the footsteps of ghazal maestros such as Khan Sahib Mehdi Hasan, Begum Akhtar, Mukhtar Begum, Farida Khanum, and others. Her performances are considered emotively rich, full of vocal nuance and lyrical feeling. Tina's repertoire includes poets such as Faiz Ahmed Faiz, Ahmad Faraz,Perveen Shakir, Daagh, Mir, Mirza Ghalib, Firaq Gorakhpuri, Allama Iqbal and Rumi amongst others. Sani has performed at a wide range of international forums, bearing the firm belief that music crosses all borders. Performing not only all over Pakistan but in many parts of the world like Ireland, Morocco, Oman, Qatar, Bahrain, Dubai, Croatia, India , Turkey, North and South Korea, Philippines, Malaysia, Germany, US and UK and recently in September 2016 at the Oslo Mela Festival where she collaborated with a jazz ensemble. Prestigious amongst the numerous awards she has received over a career of 4 decades are:

This is Episode 80 of the State of the Theory Podcast. Politics. Power. Popular Culture. And other stuff, probably. In this series, we’re like super nerdy philosophical DJs: mashing up Serious Academic Questions with the most topical news and trends in pop culture. Each week, we’ll tackle a new topic and collide it with ‘critical theory’ (we’re pretty loose with our definitions, though, so expect the unexpected). Our aim is to destroy the stuff we know, explore the stuff we don’t and unsettle everything we think we know about the world. We take the obvious, the commonsensical, the certain, and then we rip it all to shreds. We are your theory doctors and we are always on call. This week we re-visit the rising tide of Fascism in India and explore the narratives of history at play. We look at partition, independence and nation-building in the immediate post-independence period and interrogate the narrative of secularism that has been associated with postcolonial India. You can listen to Iqbal Bano’s rendition of Faiz Ahmed Faiz’s ghazal “Hum Dekhenge” here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dxtgsq5oVy4 State of the Theory is brought to you by Hannah Fitzpatrick (@drhfitz) and Anindya Raychaudhuri (@DrAnindyaR) Find us on Facebook (www.facebook.com/stateofthetheorypodcast) or Tweet us @TheoryDoctors

Hi, i am just a guy who liked all these words so i just wanted to put it out so anyone can hear it on digital plateforms.
Bol is a famous revolutionary Urdu poem written by Faiz Ahmed Faiz, a famous Urdu poet related with Progressive Literary Movement.
1968 was one of the most seismic years in recent history -- Vietnam, the Prague spring, Black Power at the Olympics and protests on the streets of Paris and London so this evening's programme -- Rana Mitter's extended interview with Tariq Ali -- is part commemoration, part reassessment. What remains of that turbulent time and where can we discern its features in our political landscape today? Rana takes Tariq back to his life as a boy in Lahore - a city where his radical parents regularly hosted the likes of Pakistan's great 20th century poet Faiz Ahmed Faiz and brings him via his first hand experience of wartime Vietnam and his intellectual engagement with the Russian revolution to the present where he offers assessments of the Labour leader, Jeremy Corbyn and the US President, Donald Trump. There's time too for a diversion into literature. Tariq shares his love of Kipling and in the longer version of the interview available as one of our Arts and Ideas podcasts - he reads from his novel Night of the Golden Butterfly featuring a character based on the painter, Tassaduq Sohail. Tariq Ali has chosen a mixtape for Radio 3's Late Junction broadcast this week. Producer: Zahid Warley
This episode is about a song based on a poem written by Pakistani Faiz Ahmed Faiz in 1947. He belonged to the Progressive Movement, a collective of writers and poets who embodied a revolutionary aesthetic during the years leading up to the 1947 independence of India and Pakistan.
