He was the most learned person in the family and left Law Practice because of the reason to avoid falsehood at occasions and he preferred to lead a moderate life by settling in small Towns/Cities. Most of the family members lived long but he died at the age of 57 years.
The effect of family interest in literature can be seen, as he wrote “Qita-e-Taareekh-e-Inteba” (1924 AD / 1342 Hij) in Persian, when his father’s composition of Poetry (Deewan-e-Asar) was published. It is given here under:
About the Grave;
The verse of Allama Iqbal is written on his grave;
ہزاروں سال نرگس اپنی بے نوری پہ روتی ہے
بڑی مشکل سے ہوتا ہے چمن میں دیدہ وَر پیدا
About the prominent Offpring;
His son Muhammad Anwar (pictured below) is the only one (unlike all other Pirzadas – after 1870 AD), who opted for the religious studies, along with his bank career in the managerial job.
