Mohammad Delawar Qazi

محمد دلاور قاضی

Mohammad Delawar Qazi (1903–1977) was born in Qala-e Mirza, a hamlet of Kandibagh in Chaparhar, Nangarhar. At the school for judges in Kabul his classmates called one another “Qazi” (judge); the name stayed with him and became his pen name. He served for many years in the Royal Secretariat, where he also directed the building of the Tapa garden in Paghman. From the 1940s he wrote poems in Dari and Pashto, which appeared in Kabul’s newspapers and magazines, and his Pashto grammar in verse won a first prize. His eldest son was the memoirist M. Khalid Roashan; another son, Dr. G. Rauf Roashan, collected his poems in Golchin-e Qazi (1998).
