About This Book
Mirza Sultan Ahmad aur Sakht (Vol. 1) by Tariq Ahmad Siddiqi is a research-based philosophical study written in Urdu, devoted exclusively to Mirza Sultan Ahmad (1850–1931). The book examines Mirza’s thought through the analytical perspectives of Structuralism and Post-Structuralism, demonstrating that his concept of sakht (structure) is not confined to the philosophy of language but extends to his broader philosophy of existence.
Siddiqi argues that Mirza Sultan Ahmad conceived the order of both language and being through relations of difference and connection, opposition and synthesis—an insight that anticipates many principles later formalized by Ferdinand de Saussure and subsequent post-structuralist thinkers. Written over a decade of study, this first digital volume repositions Mirza Sultan Ahmad as a significant precursor to structuralist thought and as a foundational figure in Urdu intellectual history.
