One of the stalwarts of Modern Urdu Literature,her demise is really a great setback for all Urdu lovers.I still remember the day when I was just Fifteen years old and read her short story "Ye Ghazi Ye Tere Purasrar bande" and it went over my head but when I read it now it is simply as matchless as the author herself.

THIS SHOWS THE FEELING AND ATTACHMENT YOU HAVE ON HER. I HAVE NOT HEARD ABOUT THIS LADY. BUT I RESPECT INTELLECTUALS WHO DOES NOT LIKE TO COME TO THE LIMELIGHT. MORE SAD, SUCH PERSONS ARE NOT BROUGHT TO THE WORLD BY THE PRINT AS WELL AS ELECTRONIC MEDIA WHO ARE MORE INTERESTED IN SHOWCASING BIKINI CLAD MODELS AND USELESS WALK THE TRACK MEETINGS WITH SUNDRIES.
I TOO JOIN YOU IN YOUR PRAYER FOR HER SOUL TO REST IN PEACE. IT WILL BE BEFITTING IF SOME URDU SCHOLARS WRITE HER STORIES IN ENGLISH AND OTHER LOCAL LANGUAGES FOR EVERYONE TO KNOW ABOUT HER.
