Nasir Jahan

Nasir Jahan or Syed Nasir Jahan (1927 – 6 December 1990) was a Hamd, Na'at and Marsiya reciter who appeared for recitation of religious poetry on Pakistan Television and Radio Pakistan for many decades.

Nasir Jahan was born in Lucknow, British India in 1927. He received his basic education in Lucknow and then migrated to the newly independent Pakistan in 1950 with his family and settled in Karachi.

Veteran Radio Pakistan personality, Z. A. Bukhari spotted him at an event in Karachi and saw his potential in reciting religious poetry. With his encouragement, Nasir Jahan recited a nazm written by Syed Aal-e-Raza at a 'Majlis-e-Sham-e-Gharibaan' program on Radio Pakistan in 1954. His presentation was well-liked by the public and later became known as 'Salam-e-Aakhir'. After the introduction of Pakistan television station in Karachi, he started making appearances on television as well.
