This research paper throws light on Muzaffar Ali Syed's contributions in the critical debate on the question of identity that conditioned the intellectual atmosphere in the first decade of the second half of the 20th century. The writer has attempted to collect Muzaffar Ali Syed's dohās, bẖajans and gīts that were published in different literary journals over a period of time. This paper is an attempt to probe the reasons for which the research and critical appreciation of these Dohās, Bẖajans and Gīts was neglected and as a result the entire creative work of Muzaffar Ali Syed, in this area, was allowed to sink into oblivion.
