نواب امیر حسن خان

نواب امیر حسن خان
افسوس ہے کہ گذشتہ مارچ میں نواب صدیق حسن خان کے پوتے اور نواب علی حسن خان کے بڑے صاحبزادے نواب امیر حسن خان نے دفعتہ انتقال کیا، اس خاندان میں کئی پشتوں تک علم و دولت کا اجتماع رہا نواب علی حسن خان خود صاحبِ علم، اہل قلم کے قدردان اور لکھنؤ کی اہم شخصیت تھے، اس لئے علامہ شبلی مرحوم سے اُن کے بڑے گہرے تعلقات تھے، اس تعلق اور علم دوستی کی بنا پر ان کو ندوہ اور دارالمصنفین سے خاص تعلق تھا، ندوہ کے وہ ابتداء سے حامی و مددگار اور ایک زمانہ تک اس کے ناظم رہے، دارالمصنفین کے بھی رکن تھے، نواب صاحب کی زندگی تک ان کا دولت کدہ اصحابِ علم وکمال کا مرجع تھا، مگر ان کی وفات کے بعد اس خاندان کی پرانی شان قائم نہ رہ سکی، تاہم نواب امیر حسن خان نے حتی الامکان قدیم روایات اور پرانے تعلقات کو نباہنے کی کوشش کی، مگر زمینداری کے خاتمہ نے اس خاندان کا بالکل خاتمہ کردیا، ایک زمانہ میں بھوپال ہاؤس کی رونق اور چہل پہل قابلِ دید تھی، اور اب وہ تلک الایام نداولہابین الناس[آل عمران:۱۴۰]کا مرقع بن گیا ہے، نواب امیر حسن خان کی عمر ساٹھ سال کے قریب رہی ہوگی، اﷲ ان کو اپنی رحمت ومغفرت سے سرفراز فرمائے۔
