Lisani Jaiza
It means analysis of the nature of the language used, its style, complexity, different genres and literary devices like similes and metaphors, grip on the language, its impact on the reader, eloquence, simplicity and influence/effect on the target audience etc.
This prose is called ‘khutbati nasar’ because one feels while reading it as people are being addressed by someone.
These waazes consist of 55 pages in which he has addressed his ‘mureed’ peer Muhammad Suchiar but actually this message was meant to be for all the masses.
The language used is sweet and simple. It was the common language of that era which people used to speak and understand.
By looking at the style of language, it may be inferred that these waazes belong to the initial days of his teachings as subject matter contains simple words and literary devices which can be easily understood by the masses.
The superiority of his ideas, originality of his thought is evident from the style of his language.
It is one of the basic rule of communication to get the attention of the other before communicating the message. Hazrat Nosha was well equipped with this art and used the word ‘baba’ to get the attention of the audience so that he may address them in effective manner. In that era of darkness and illiteracy this technique shows his grip on the language and his perception about minds and hearts of the people.
Although these waazes are in writing yet It is the beauty of language that one feels as he is listening to Hazrat Nosha Ganj while reading these waazes and the message is gradually penetrating to one’s heart.
The prose has become even more beautiful with the use of different literary devices and it embodies a lot of literary touch due to which it enchants the reader:
The art of seven C’s of communication is also found in these waazes.
Prose sometimes matches poetry due to ‘qaafia pemai’ i.e when he says: ‘jo manda hais so banda hais’.
Similes and Metaphors have been used to make prose look more attractive. Look how beautifully he has used simile in this line: ‘jind ohnaandi jiwain koi nadi wich tubbi maar k apnay aap nu kukaiy’.
‘Sanat-e-tazaad’ has also been used when he says: ‘tay osay pani wich ag day azaab nu dhoya’ (yahan pe firoun ki taraf ishara hy)
These waazes have been the main theme of many modern scholars like Dr. Asmatullah Zahid and many scholars even did research work on these waazes in their PHDs.
It was the impact of his language that it had great effect on the people not only in his era but many people continue to take guidance from these even today.
