यह हाद्स तो एक रोझ गुजरने वाला था, मै बच भी जाता तो एक रोज मरने वाला था. राहत जी जैसे लोग कई सदियो मै एक बार पैद होते है. उर्दु और हिन्दी जगत का एक बेमिसाल सितरा आज हमने खो दिया. येह इस पिडी कि किस्मत है के उनके जैसे फन्कार को सुन पाये. २०१३ मै जब तिन्सुकिया मै कवि सम्मेलन आयोजित किया गया तो अपने घर बुलने का सौभाग्य प्राप्त हुआ. बेहद सरल स्वभव के व्यक्ति थे और दुनियादारि से बेखबर. उनकि शायरि ने हमेशा मुझ्पर गेहरा असर डाला है. २०१७ मै पुन उन्से जब दिल्ली मै मुल्लाकत हुइ तो उन्हे तिन्सुकिया का कवि सम्मेलन पुरी तरहा याद थी. आने वाल वक्त अब कभी दुसरा राहत इन्दोरि नही देख सकेगा. दिवन्गत आत्मा को अश्रुपुर्ण विदाई.
