Ishtiaq Ahmed Novels Top 5 “Khas Numbers” List
created by Shahzad Bashir – Author
Hi Ishtiaq Ahmed Fans ! Today I’m going to present my favourite khas numbers ranking for Ishtiaq Ahmed Novels. Read why these fantastic novels are at the top 5 list. So let’s start with Number 5.
No.5: Duniya Ke Qaidi – (July 1984)
No.5: At number five, I placed this novel after a lot of careful thought. Let me explain why.
When Ishtiaq Ahmad published the first special issue titled “Jeral ka Mansuba” (Jeral’s Plan) and brought together the parties of Inspector Jamshed and Inspector Kamran Mirza, that meeting became unique and historic. Readers loved it so much that after the publication of the Shoki Series, people strongly started demanding that in some special issue all three parties should be included together.
Now think about how difficult that must have been. I mean, the Jamshed–Kamran party has its own style: chasing criminals, jumping into danger, confronting powerful criminals — bangs, crashes, gunfire, explosions, and so on. Right?
But the Shoki Series is the complete opposite. In terms of dialogue, satire, humor, intelligence, and wit they are equally strong, but when it comes to action — fighting and brawling — they stay miles away from it.
So this challenge was even mentioned by Ishtiaq Ahmad himself. But once the decision was made, it was made: it had to be done. Then the announcement came for the special issue “Duniya ke Qaidi” (Prisoners of the World).
And we rushed to the library so we could book it first — because of course we wanted to read it before anyone else.
But when the novel was finally published… wow! It was such a pleasure to read. The Shoki Brothers showed amazing brilliance in their first meeting. Before that, there was intense suspense about how these three parties would meet — especially how the meeting with the Shoki Brothers would happen. And honestly, the way that meeting actually takes place was beyond imagination. It truly made the heart leap with joy.
Then taking them along as part of the team and still maintaining justice while confronting the enemies — that was certainly not an easy task.
For me, this novel definitely deserves a place in the Top Five. If you haven’t read it yet, you should definitely do so.

No.4: Sunehri Chatan – (Dec-Jan 1987)
Back in the 1980s, when sources of information were limited, I would only occasionally get to read something about space science or extraterrestrial life—either on television once in a while or in newspapers and magazines. Those topics fascinated me the most, and they raised many questions in my mind. Of course, the means for research were also very limited.
Then the announcement of “Sunehri Chattan” (Golden Rock) was made. Just by reading its previews, I realized that the time had finally come when many of my questions might be answered. And that’s exactly what happened.
If I say that Sunehri Chattan was, for its time, a novel comparable to a Hollywood blockbuster film, I wouldn’t be exaggerating. The story revolves around extraterrestrial beings and flying saucers, but what truly makes it special is everything surrounding it: the suspenseful beginning, thrilling and mysterious events, preparation for the mission, obstacles created by criminals, warnings from the alien beings, attacks by flying saucers—and then the determination to confront all of this.
The Inspector Jamshed–Kamran–Shoki team sets out with courage, surpassing every other spy team in the world and eventually reaching the land of the flying saucers themselves.
It is such an amazing novel that, honestly, it felt even more enjoyable than many Hollywood science-fiction films. And even now, whenever I get the chance to read it again, it is just as entertaining as before. Even though today we know the answers to many of those questions and possess far more advanced knowledge, this novel—considering its time—remains one of the best of the best.
If you don’t believe it, try reading it yourself.
