Golam Mostofa (1897 – 13 October 1964) was a Bengali writer and poet.

Early life and education

Mostofa was born in 1897, in the village of Monoharpur in Shailkupa Upazila, Jessore district (now Jhenaidah), in present-day Bangladesh. He was the son of Golam Rabbani and grandson of Kazi Golam Sarwar, both folk poets.

He finished his primary education in Damukdia and passed the Entrance exam in 1913 from Shailkupa High School.[1] He passed BA from Ripon College in 1918 and BT from David Hare Training College in 1922.

Career

Mostofa started teaching at Barakpore Government School in 1920. He retired as headmaster of Faridpur Zila School in 1949. He was the secretary of the East Bengal Government's Language Reform Committee, formed in 1949. He believed in the two-nation theory that formed the basis for the ideals of Pakistan and, during the Language Movement in 1952, supported Urdu as the only state language of Pakistan.{{citation needed|date=December 2014}}

Islamic heritage was one of his inspirations. His book Biswanabi (1942), a biography based on the life of the Islamic prophet Muhammad, provided him with wide recognition.[1]

Works

Mostofa wrote his first poem, Adrianopol Uddhar, in tenth grade. After that, he wrote for forty-eight years.
