The short-story, is one of the most important literary subgenres in Urdu literature, despite its relative youth. This was influenced by western and literary concepts and tendencies, as well as the contemporary industrial and mechanized environment. The literature that can help to provide permanent comfort and peace to the life of a common man breathing in a fragmented society and an oppressive system is undoubtedly 'Literature for Life'.
Qazi Abdul Sattar is a distinguished figure in Urdu fiction, celebrated for his unique linguistic style and mastery over both novels and short stories-a rare feat given their divergent demands. His significant contributions elevated Urdu fiction post-independence. A defining characteristic of his work is the meticulous portrayal of Awadh's feudal system and culture, meticulously documenting the declining lifestyle, fading traditions, and destitution of its landlords and capitalists after partition. His narratives frequently highlight the decay of the capitalist system. Sattar's language is distinct, evolving with his characters, and he employs similes beautifully, though occasionally to excess. Overall, his enduring literary identity rests on his singular voice and profound thematic engagement. This book "Diwali" is a collection of few of his famous short stories.

قاضی عبدالستار کا شمار اردو فکشن کے معدودے چند تخلیق کاروں میں ہوتا ہے جن کی شناخت زبان و بیان کے ایک خاص طرز ادا کے باعث قائم ہے۔ آزادی کے بعد اردو فکشن کو بام عروج تک پہنچانے اور اعتبار دلانے میں قاضی عبدالستار کا نام کافی اہمیت کا حامل ہے۔ قاضی عبدالستار کا شمار معدودے چند تخلیق کاروں میں اس باعث ہے کہ انہوں نے ناول و افسانہ، دونوں اصناف میں یکساں مہارت کا ثبوت دیا ہے۔ ان کی زبان اور ان کا اسلوب انہیں دوسرے فن کاروں سے ممیز کراتا ہے۔ ان کا ایک امتیاز یہ بھی ہے کہ انہوں نے اودھ کے جاگیردارانہ نظام و تہذیب کو اپنا موضوعِ خاص بنایا ہے۔ اودھ کے سرمایہ داروں کے طرز معاشرت ، تقسیم کے بعد ان کی مٹتی ہوئی تہذیب اور زبوں حالی الغرض ایسے تمام نشانات اور تمام زاویوں کو انہوں نے اپنے افسانوں کا موضوع بنایا ہے۔
