Tehzeeb-ul-Ikhlaq (Urdu: تہذیب الاخلاق) is a magazine established by the Muslim reformer Sir Syed Ahmad Khan in 1871. The magazine published alternative Muslim perspectives, written in plain language. It gave voice to the publisher's religious, social, and reforming opinions, and is credited with establishing him as one of the fathers of Urdu fiction. Publication was interrupted in 1961 but restarted by Syed Hamid (Vice-chancellor of Aligarh Muslim University) in 1981. Since then it is being published regularly. There is now a separate office of Tehzeeb-ul-Ikhlaq.[1]
