Nazar Muhammad Rashed (Urdu: ), (1 August 1910 – September 9, 1975), also known as Noon Meem Rashed (Urdu: ) or N.M. Rashed, was a Pakistani poet of modern Urdu poetry.
Early years
Rashed was born in a Janjua family in Kot Bhaaga, Akaal Garh (now Alipur Chatha), Wazirabad, Punjab, and obtained a master's degree in economics from the Government College Lahore.
Career
He served in the Royal Indian Army for a short time during the Second World War, earning the rank of captain. He worked with All India Radio in New Delhi and Lucknow before Pakistan's independence in 1947. He was moved to Peshawar in 1947, where he worked until 1953. He was later hired by Voice of America and had to relocate to New York City for the position. He was in Iran for a short time. He worked with the United Nations in New York later on.
Rashed spent time in several countries and served in the United Nations. In Urdu Literature, he is considered to be the "father of Modernism." He coexists Faiz Ahmed Faiz as one of Pakistan's finest modern poets.
His readership is minimal, and recent social changes have harmed his stature, and there seems to be a concerted effort not to promote his poetry. Mavra, his first book of free verse, was published in 1940 and established him as a pioneering figure in Urdu poetry's 'free form.'
In 1973, he returned to England and died in a London hospital in 1975.
