Nisar Akbarabadi grew up under the tutelage of his parents. He received his early education from his father and the rest from the scholars of the time. He was fluent in Persian and Arabic and was quite well read. He then took up the profession of teaching. This profession continued till his death. At the end of his life, he was appointed as a teacher in the house of Nawab Muhammad Ismail Khan. During his youth, he graced a number of Mushairas. Munshi Syed Ali Khan, the nephew of Qazi Baqir Ali Khan, also known as Afzal Munsif, used to have a large number of Mushairas in Fatehabad. Nisar was also fond of reciting poetry.A few days later, he consulted with Hazrat Mehr. He got permission and caliphate and then joined the circle of students of Hazrat Akbar. The color of Sufism in Nisar's poetry was the result of the hard work of Hazrat Shah Akbar Danapuri. Nisar's position among the students of Hazrat Akbar is very high. The style of reciting ghazals was special. If he recited ghazals, he would recite them slowly. He has many students whose details are written in detail in Nihalistan-e-Nisar. Bedam Warsi, Mazhar Aghai, Sufi Akbarabadi and Sham Babu Akbarabadi were highly favored. After a long-suffered disease, he finally passed away on April 27, 1921. Hazrat Shah Mohsin Danapuri and Hazrat Simab Akbarabadi have written chronograms on his demise. His writings include Hazrat Shah Akbar Danapuri, Mazaq-e-Ishq, Khumar-e-Ishq, a complete Diwan, an incomplete collection and a collection of Persian words.
