Shah Latif and His Message is a 1992 book written by GM Syed about the life of sindhi Sufi poet Shah Abdul Latif Bhittai and his teachings. The book is originally published in sindhi language and later on it is translated by Prof. Egnert Azariah.[1][2]

Syed depicts Latif "as a nationalist and patriotic poet because of his immense love and commitment to Sindh and its people."[3] The author has given a simple and direct version of his poetry and his teachings and it doesn't only guide us to correctly understand the message of his enlightenments but also helps us to understand that lurking soil of sindh since the ancient times of indus valley civilization.
