Abstract

Dr. Khwaja Muhammad Zakaria is considered unique and distinguished in Urdu language and literature due to his academic identity and cultural and creative achievements. His main reason is his fame as a researcher and critic, however, after poetry, sketching is of importance in his creative references. It is true that he has not yet compiled a collection of his sketches, however, there are more than a dozen such writings in his various books and columns that meet the art of sketching. Most of these sketches are related to those poets, writers and teachers whom the sketcher has seen closely. He has shown impartial images of these personalities while adhering to the technical requirements of sketching. The prominent feature of his sketches is balance and critical perspective. He neither praises anyone unjustly nor is he unnecessarily sarcastic. He has described the personalities from the angle from which he has seen them. Khwaja Zakaria's style is extremely charming, eye-catching and readable. His observation is profound and the selection of events and materials is most appropriate. The author has tried to conduct an analytical study of Khwaja Zakaria's sketches, keeping in mind the art of sketching, and to bring to light his contributions in this creative dimension.
