Critical analysis of “Khair-ul-Bayan” and “Makhzan-e-Islam in the light of “Swat-Nama”
Abstract
Khushal Khan Khattak, Who is considered the father of Pashto, also has the honor of being the first critic of Pashto. He wrote many books of poetry and prose. He also wrote two travelogues, one of them being “Swat-nama”. Swat-nama is a poetic travelogue of Khushal, in which he expressed his opinion about the geography, economy, politics, and culture of Swat. He also criticized the religious and literary books of that time in this travelogue. Two books were very famous at that time. One was “Khair-ul-Bayan” which was written by “Pir-Roshan” and the other was “Makhzan-e-Islam” which was written by “AKhun Darwaiza”. “Khair-ul-Bayan” is the first Pashto prose book and “Makhzan-e-Islam” is the second. Khusal Khan Khattak criticized these two books in Swat-nama. This research paper sheds light on Khushal’s critical insight as depicted in his critique of the said books in Swat-Nama.
