Expressing your feelings, and then regretting it afterward… 💔 Have you ever felt that way too?
Sher Muhammad Khan, widely recognized by his pen name Ibn e Insha, was a prominent Urdu poet, columnist, and celebrated humorist. Born in the Phillaur tehsil of Punjab’s Jalandhar District to a father of Rajasthani descent, he completed his B.A. at Punjab University in 1946 and later earned an M.A. from the University of Karachi in 1953.
His work with the United Nations provided him the opportunity to travel extensively, inspiring his well-regarded travelogues. Guided by mentors such as Habibullah Ghazanfer Amrohvi, Dr. Ghulam Mustafa Khan, and Dr. Abdul Qayyum, he left a lasting literary legacy before his passing in London on January 11, 1978.
hum us ko hi samjhenge shaakh-e-shajar-e-ulfat
jo aab se sookhegi aatish se hari hogi
