Abstract
The monthly Al-Aziz was launched in 1940 by Azizur Rahman Aziz, a retired district judge and a known literary figure of the state of Bahawalpur. The article highlights the importance of this journal in promoting literature produced in Urdu by writers in that region. By allocating a section to the Seraiki language it also became the most authentic source of material written and published in that language. For some time the journal also introduced a section of writings by women. After Aziz's death in 1944, Al-Aziz was managed by his son Hafeezur Rahman for two years after which it was discontinued.
