      Key Facts about Sabir:
      Pseudonym: His birth name was Mirza Alakbar Tahirzadeh, but he is known worldwide as Sabir, which means "patient" in Arabic.
      Satirist: Sabir's poems were known for their sharp satire. He wittily and sometimes bitingly criticized social problems, religious hypocrisy, corruption, and the backward mentality of his time.
      Journalism: He was one of the main writers for the satirical magazine "Molla Nasraddin," which had enormous influence in the Islamic world. His poems in this magazine appealed to a wide audience and contributed to political and social awareness.
      Language: He used clear, direct, and popular language in his poems, in contrast to the traditional, more formal poetry of the time. This made his work accessible to ordinary people.
      Sabir is a national icon in Azerbaijan. Many of his lines have become proverbs.
