Quote:

Q
Where can I purchase Ibne Safi's novels?
A
Ibne Safi's novels can be purchased from Asrar Publications Lahore.
However they do not ship the novels to overseas. We are trying to
resolve this issue. Meanwhile if you know someone in Pakistan, he/she
can purchase on your behalf and ship you.

**zÂk** · **Re: Ibne Safi's works... -** 06-02-2006

Q Do you plan to upload e-novels on the great website? It will be definitely a great gift for the fans living outside Pakistan.
A The copyright of Ibne Safi's novels is with his family so we cannot publish the novels online. The issue of availability of printed copies to overseas has been discussed with Ibne Safi’s family. They have a plan to start a commercial website site for online purchasing. May be at that time e-novels subscription can also be considered.

**zÂk** · **Re: Ibne Safi's works... -** 06-02-2006

A Anwar's character is first introduced in Heeray Ki Kaan (Jasoosi Duniya No.13).

A Although Qasim's character is initially introduced in Bur'f Kay Bhoot (Jasoosi Duniya No.33), Hameed's first meeting with him is described in Zehreela Aadmi (Jasoosi Duniya No.87).

Q I read somewhere that Black Zero is killed in one of the novels. Is this true?
A Yes. Black Zero is killed in Darindoan Ki Bastee (Imran Series No.18) however another person replaced this position in the next novel Gumshuda Shehzaadi.

Q In which novel can I read about Hameed's mouse?
A You can read about Hameed's mouse in Jungle Ki Aag (Jasoosi Duniya No.33).

Plagiarism

During 1960-1963, while Ibn-e-Safi was suffering from schizophrenia, many amateur writers started posing themselves as Ibn-e-Safi and produced third class copies of his work, distorting the character of not only Ali Imran, but also of Colonel Faridi and Captain Hameed (of the Jasoosi Dunya). These acts of vandalism were reported by Ibn-e-Safi himself in the paish-rus (preface) of Dairh Matwaalay (which was the novel he returned with after his recovery). Some writers and publishers still continued to write on Safi's characters, much to the annoyance of many fans. Safi used to mention fans' complaints sometimes in the prefaces, and mocked the fake publishers and writers in his own witty style.

Additions by other writers

Some writers who acquired fame by writing their own versions of Imran Series (specially after the death of Ibn-e-Safi) include Mazhar Kaleem, Safdar Shaheen, Ibn-e-Rahat and Mushtaq Ahmed Qureshi (among others). Mazhar Kaleem is still writing novels and enjoys enough fan-following, and has introduced many new characters in the series. Fans of Ibn-e-Safi, however, dismiss Kaleem's books, arguing that Kaleem distorted the original 'feel' of the series, and that he deformed the key characteristics of many characters, including Ali Imran. Nevertheless, his novels have a significant readership.

Difference between Ibn-e-Safi's and Mazhar Kaleem's books

Some of the differences between Ibn-e-Safi's and Mazhar Kaleem's books are as follows:

Ibn-e-Safi's writing style can mostly be categorised under mystery fiction (with the excpetions of a few adventures). Mazhar Kaleem, however, does not rely on mystery but on action-oriented situational twists, with the overall plot of the story revealed in the first few chapters.
Ibn-e-Safi's Ali Imran, although highly intelligent, is not a super-human; Kaleem portrays him as a "man of all qualities" and "undestructable".
Although Ibn-e-Safi never explicitly stated the name of Imran's country, he used to mention the real names of other countries and cities. Kaleem uses aliases for all country and city names (except Israel).
Ibn-e-Safi brought together Ali Imran and Col. Faridi just once in his novels (and that too in the Jasoosi Dunya). Kaleem has done that many times, openly favoring Imran against Faridi. (Kaleem has not written any story with Faridi as the main protagonist.)
Many main characters created by Ibn-e-Safi are not present in Kaleem's books. Examples include Roshee, Zafar-ul-Mulk, Jameson, Sing Hee, T3B and others. (It is interesting to note that Ibn-e-safi threatened to take legal action against those writers and publishers who would use the characters of Zafar-ul-Mulk and Jameson in their own publications.) Some of the main characters introduced by Kaleem are Captain Shakeel, Juana, Tiger and Sualeha.

It will be definitely a great gift for the fans living outside Pakistan. A The copyright of Ibne Safi's novels is with his family so we cannot publish the novels online. The issue of availability of printed copies to overseas has been discussed with Ibne Safi’s family. They have a plan to start a commercial website site for online purchasing. May be at that time e-novels subscription can also be considered. __________________

A Anwar's character is first introduced in Heeray Ki Kaan (Jasoosi Duniya No.13). Q When does Hameed first meet Qasim? A Although Qasim's character is initially introduced in Bur'f Kay Bhoot (Jasoosi Duniya No.33), Hameed's first meeting with him is described in Zehreela Aadmi (Jasoosi Duniya No.87). Q I read somewhere that Black Zero is killed in one of the novels. Is this true? A Yes. Black Zero is killed in Darindoan Ki Bastee (Imran Series No.18) however another person replaced this position in the next novel Gumshuda Shehzaadi. Q In which novel can I read about Hameed's mouse? A You can read about Hameed's mouse in Jungle Ki Aag (Jasoosi Duniya No.33). Q Has Hameed ever disguised himself as a woman? A Yes, Hameed disguises himself as a woman in Shaitaan Ki Mehbooba (Jasoosi Duniya No.64). Q In which novels do Faridi, Hameed and Imran work together? A Ibne Safi wrote only one such novel Zameen Kay Baadal (Jasoosi Duniya No.75). __________________

These acts of vandalism were reported by Ibn-e-Safi himself in the paish-rus (preface) of Dairh Matwaalay (which was the novel he returned with after his recovery). Some writers and publishers still continued to write on Safi's characters, much to the annoyance of many fans. Safi used to mention fans' complaints sometimes in the prefaces, and mocked the fake publishers and writers in his own witty style. Additions by other writers Some writers who acquired fame by writing their own versions of Imran Series (specially after the death of Ibn-e-Safi) include Mazhar Kaleem, Safdar Shaheen, Ibn-e-Rahat and Mushtaq Ahmed Qureshi (among others). Mazhar Kaleem is still writing novels and enjoys enough fan-following, and has introduced many new characters in the series. Fans of Ibn-e-Safi, however, dismiss Kaleem's books, arguing that Kaleem distorted the original 'feel' of the series, and that he deformed the key characteristics of many characters, including Ali Imran. Nevertheless, his novels have a significant readership. Difference between Ibn-e-Safi's and Mazhar Kaleem's books Some of the differences between Ibn-e-Safi's and Mazhar Kaleem's books are as follows: Ibn-e-Safi's writing style can mostly be categorised under mystery fiction (with the excpetions of a few adventures). Mazhar Kaleem, however, does not rely on mystery but on action-oriented situational twists, with the overall plot of the story revealed in the first few chapters. Ibn-e-Safi's Ali Imran, although highly intelligent, is not a super-human; Kaleem portrays him as a "man of all qualities" and "undestructable". Although Ibn-e-Safi never explicitly stated the name of Imran's country, he used to mention the real names of other countries and cities. Kaleem uses aliases for all country and city names (except Israel). Ibn-e-Safi brought together Ali Imran and Col. Faridi just once in his novels (and that too in the Jasoosi Dunya). Kaleem has done that many times, openly favoring Imran against Faridi. (Kaleem has not written any story with Faridi as the main protagonist.) Many main characters created by Ibn-e-Safi are not present in Kaleem's books. Examples include Roshee, Zafar-ul-Mulk, Jameson, Sing Hee, T3B and others. (It is interesting to note that Ibn-e-safi threatened to take legal action against those writers and publishers who would use the characters of Zafar-ul-Mulk and Jameson in their own publications.) Some of the main characters introduced by Kaleem are Captain Shakeel, Juana, Tiger and Sualeha. __________________
