The main reason this family earned literary recognition and fame in "Rawal Des" or Rawalpindi was having in it renowned literary personalities like Hakim Ghulam Nabi Kamil, Abdul Aziz Fitrat and Muhammad Ayub Mohsin. The literary reflections and dimensions of these renowned personalities are highly reflected in the works of Naseem e Sehar and he can be called a perfect representative of his literarily rich family. Naseem e Sehar did his matriculation from Muslim High School No. 2, Saidpuri Gate, Rawalpindi, where he got in touch with teachers and friends having literary taste, thus developing in him a good taste for literary activities. While in school, he jotted down some stories for children's magazines. Later, he also started writing humorous stories and articles; after some time he started writing poetry also, and his first poetry book titled "Pehli Uraan" (First Flight) was published in 1977, which proved a strong and confident expression of his poetic talent, and was well received by the literary and intellectual circles. Thereafter, continuing his literary endeavors, spread over many years, various books of Naseem e Sehar's poetic writings were published one after the other, containing ghazals, poems, haikus, Hamd o Na'at, and last but not the least, his humorous poetry. His never-ending literary endeavors are going on in full swing. Apart from being a poet and critic, he is also an expert translator, having translated more than a thousand short stories from English into Urdu; he also bears to his credit translation of two famous books of psychology and public relations authored by Dale Carnegie.Thus, he got himself acknowledged as a renowned translator as well.

While in Saudi Arabia, he started publishing a quarterly literary magazine from Pakistan, titled SAHAAB which continued its publication for more than twelve years, and was very much welcomed by literary circles not only in Pakistan, but also Saudi Arabia, India, Europe and America. During his prolonged stay in Saudi Arabia, he was fully attached with the mainstream of literature of the Sub-Continent, and that is why, ever since he returned to Pakistan in 2011, he is still shining and visible on the literary scene.
