Salam,
First of all thanx to Muhib for posting a lovely gahzal of Prof.Hamid Kashmiri on this website.Its rally a matter of honour for our poets(kashmiri) to be included in this fourm.But I am afraid to say that poets name has been spelt incorrectly as its Prof.Hamid Kashmiri.So in future please do take care of such mistake.
regards,
Raqim Hyder..!
Salam once again..
Sorry to all readers for the last post pasted above.Well I confirmed the name and it is right as per Mohib Sahab-Prof.Hamidi Kashmiri.
Well read form newspaper few yers back as they had published his name as prof.Hamid Kashmir so I followed them.But then few days back,I got the opportunity to have word with Prof.Hamidi Kashmiri so from that,I cleared my concept anout him.I once agin appologize for the mistake.
Regards,
Raqim Hyder.
