Moulana Deen Mohammed Wafai, a renowned scholar and journalist, was born on the 14th of April 1884 in a literary family of District Shikarpur.
He acquired religious education from well-known scholars of Sindh including
Moulana Haji Mohammed Aslam, Moulana Mohammed Qasim Garhee
Yaseeni, Moulana Khadim Hussain Jatoi, Moulana Ghulam Umer Jatoi, Moulana Hasan Ali Patai and others. Moulana Wafai practically worked with Khilafat Movement and also worked as a journalist at Daily ‘Al Waheed.’ He had
issued monthly, ‘Saheefia Qadriya’ from Ranipur in 1916 A.D and a literary
magzine ‘Al Kashif’ from Larkana in 1918 A.D. He had started monthly
magazine ‘Toheed’ from Karachi which continued even after his death in the
year 1950. Logic and truth not only prevails but is apparent in the journalistic
and literary writings of Moulana Wafai. He authored many autobiographies
and books on history, culture, literature, and Seert-ul-nabi. He did notable
work on Shah Latif’s life and poetry. His two books ‘Lutuf Latif’ and ‘study of
Shah jo Risalo ’were research oriented studies on Shah Latif’s poetic thoughts.
First Edition of ‘Lutuf Latif ’was published in 1950, in which Moulana
Wafai elaborately illustrated Shah Latif’s life, contemporaries, and the cultural
and political scenario of Sindh at that time.
‘Study of Shah jo Risalo’ was published much after Moulana Wafai’s
death in the year 1962. In the said book Wafai Sahab explains the political and
social situations of Sindh. He opportunely describes the class differences that
existed between the rich and the poor people of Sindh of those times. The
book aptly describes how Shah Latif makes mentions of birds and animals in
his poetry, and the collection of Shah’s poetry.
