Kazim agha Salik (Azerbaijan: Kazım ağa Salik; 1781 in İkinci Şıxlı, Kazakh sultanate – 1842 in İkinci Şıxlı, KGeorgia Governorate, Russian Empire) was an Azerbaijani poet, brother of Mustafa agha Arif and member of Shikhlinskis noble family.
[1] Salik, originally from the Shamkir region, was born in 1781 in the village of İkinci Şıxlı of the Kazakh sultanate, where he received his first training and education.
The poet, who enjoyed deep respect in the environment in which he lived from childhood, spent his youth happy and joyful, and did not see any financial difficulties.
However, the death of his brother Mustafa agha Arif, later his daughter Heyrannisa, and then his close friend and colleague Yahya bey at an advanced age seriously affected Salik's health.
He continued and developed the classical style of poetry, the traditions of Fuzuli and the literary school of Molla Panah Vagif in Azerbaijani literature.
