Kazi of Udgir

Kazi Zainul Abedin was the last of the officiating Kazis of Udgir under the Hyderabad State.{{Citation needed|date= June 2018}} It was a culmination of centuries of family tradition.{{Citation needed|date= June 2018}} His ancestors had held this position for nearly 600 years. With the loss of Hyderabad State to Indian forces in 1948, he had to abandon his position along with his vast land holdings and move to Pakistan.{{Citation needed|date= June 2018}}

Migration to Pakistan

The fall of Hyderabad State to the invading Indian forces in 1948 had a devastating impact on most of the noble families of Hyderabad. Many of them migrated to Pakistan, Gulf States, or Europe. Abedin also decided to make his move to seek safety for his family. He moved first to Bombay and then took a passenger ship to the port city of Karachi at the end of 1948.{{Citation needed|date= November 2016}}

Thus, a year after the creation of Pakistan, Abedin moved to Pakistan and settled down in Mirpurkhas, Sindh in 1948.{{Citation needed|date= November 2016}} He had lost all of his vast estate in Hyderabad and Udgir along with most of his belongings. He had to start his life afresh in his old age, after having led a very successful life. The government of Pakistan partly compensated him out of the evacuee properties left behind by those Hindus who had migrated to India. He was given nearly {{convert|1000|acre|km2}} of land in Mirpurkhas along with a flour mill and a printing press.{{Citation needed|date= November 2016}}

For the next several years, he struggled to establish himself.{{Citation needed|date= November 2016}} He spent the rest of his years at Mirpurkhas in developing agricultural farms and social work in that area. Most of the area of the province of Sindh was backward. The British had not paid enough attention towards the development of these towns and villages. It was an uphill task to work towards development projects and help in alleviating poverty in the region.{{Citation needed|date= November 2016}}

Abedin died on 23 May 1962 and was buried on his farms in Mirpurkhas.{{Citation needed|date= November 2016}}

Family

{{Unreferenced section|date= June 2018}}

Kazi Zainul Abedin was married first to Sahibni Begum (popularly known as Pasha Begum) in the year 1919. She was the great granddaughter of the famous Sufi of Tekmal Sayyid Sahib Husayni. She bore him two sons (Kazi Abdur Rasheed and Kazi Abdul Qayum), and four daughters (Razia Begum, Aliya Begum, Humaira Begum, and Abida Begum). His wife Sahibni Begum died at a young age in 1927, after birth of Abida Begum.

Since his children were young, Kazi Zainul Abedin decided to get married again. He married Zohra Begum, who was the daughter of Kazi Ahmed Muneeruddin, the Kazi of Parbhani, and a niece of his first wife. Zohra Begum bore him one daughter (Zakiya Begum), and three sons (Kazi Saeeduddin Masood, Kazi Badruddin Sayeed, and Kazi Mazharuddin Tariq).

His grandsons include Kazi Vicaruddin, Kazi Taqiuddin Adil, Kazi Zulkader Siddiqui, Kazi Abdul Muktadir and Kazi Uzair.

Poetry

{{Unreferenced section|date= June 2018}}

Kazi Zainul Abedin was a poet in his own right, and has published his collection of poems (diwan) as well. He used to write under the pen-name (takhallus) of Abid.

Many of his poems and short couplets are engraved on buildings, monuments and projects in Hyderabad State that he inaugurated or established. Often, his couplets would depict the year of establishment of that particular building or monument through literary forms. He was famous for using the Arabic letters that had a numerical value to determine an actual date through names and poetic couplets.

He named his children and grandchildren in a manner that the same Arabic letters within the name would add up to the year of birth.
