Hilal Naqvi Biography

Hilal Naqvi’s very first marsiya was Maqtal o Masha’al. The academic, artistic and divine power of this work can be judged well by Ahsan Farooqi’s review when he says that this musaddas (a genre of Urdu poetry in which each unit consists of 6 lines stanzas) is not only an addition in the many forms of modern poetry but like Musaddas-e-Haali, it is also a criticism of contemporary time, though such anticipation is far beyond Haali’s approach but can be found in Iqbal’s Musaddas as Shikwa – o – Jawaab-e-Shikwa.
