Sahir was educated at the Khalsa High School in Ludhiana. Sahir's place of birth is marked with a small plaque on the building's arched entrance. He loved his mother, and he hated his father." Sardar Begum required protection from Sahir's father and suffered financial deprivation. In a recent biography titled Sahir: A Literary Portrait (Oxford University Press) written by US-based author Surinder Deol, the author agrees with the very brief conclusion of Pakistani poet Ahmad Rahi, a friend of Sahir over the years, about Sahir's life story in a nutshell, "In his entire life, Sahir loved once, and he nurtured one hate. In 1934, Sahir's father remarried and sued (acrimoniously and unsuccessfully) for custody of his son. His mother, Sardar Begum, left her husband thus forfeiting any claim to financial assets from the marriage. This is the reason why he added the suffix Ludhianvi after his name. Sahir was born on 8 March 1921, in a red sandstone haveli in Karimpura, Ludhiana, Punjab, India, into a Muslim landlord family. Jaun also revisited the Baan river of Amroha where he used to stroll along with his friends as a child, and which can be seen flowing incessently in his poetry:Īlso, Jaun eagerly touched upon the tomb of his ancestor Amjad Shahuddin Shah Wilayat, which is near his house, and which is oft-mentioned in his poetry.Life Early life and education The children who were born after Jaun had migrated to Pakistan, were recognized by him owning to their resemblance with their grandparents. He met all his friends, relatives, and elders, individually. When he returned at his long-parted home, he started crying uncontrollably at its sight.
There, he passionately bowed at his homeland. When he first came to India in 1972, a gathering of relatives, friends, and his admirers was present at the small railway station in Amroha to welcome him. He had migrated to Pakistan at a very young age. Jaun Eliya adored his native land Amroha.
