Ghazi is a title given to Muslim warriors or champions. It may be used out of respect or officially.
Many of the Ottoman Sultans wore this title officially (as in Caliph Sultan Ghazi Mehmed II Khan Caesar), along with Khan and Caesar. The Mughal Emperors also officially used the term Badshah Ghazi and sometimes also added the terms Alam Panah and Zilallah. Muslim champions, such as Saladin and Ahmad ibn Ibrahim, may have this title added to their name out of respect, respectively Ghazi Saladin and Ahmad Al-Ghazi.
The term Ghazi (Arabic: غازى) may refer to:
"Ghazi" as an honorific is a title gained by fighting for Islam or defending Muslims. "Ghazi" can also be a given name or a family name. Examples of all three uses are included below.
Mumtaz Hussain (1954 - ), artist, filmmaker, graphic designer, was born in Jhang, Pakistan, where he also began his education. Jhang is the center for Sufi culture in Pakistan, so Hussain was immersed in Sufi culture during his childhood. Hussain's early artistic education was informed by the medieval Indian figurative tradition. In 1981, he was admitted into the prestigious National College of Arts (NCA) in Lahore. NCA has produced many now famous contemporary Pakistani artists. During his time there, Hussain won the National Poster Competition, a coveted and highly selective award. Upon graduation, he was commissioned to construct a seventy-foot mural in Lahore's town center; he was also commissioned to decorate the Sheikh Zaid bin Sultan Palace, an architectural landmark in Karachi, under his instructors' supervision.
Hussain left Pakistan for London in 1981 to study European art forms. In 1988, he moved to New York to pursue graphic design at the School of Visual Art where his teachers included Milton Glaser, a world renown graphic designer and illustrator. Hussain also studied figure drawing and painting at the Art Students League of New York. His European and American art education introduced him to Cubism and Impressionism, which had a deep influence on his work. New York's multicultural atmosphere also helped Hussain develop a unique fusion of multiple customs and sources of inspiration, drawing on Eastern and Western styles both traditional and modern.

Plot: "Target Practice" is an intelligent but raw, visceral, extremely tense outdoor thriller with an emphasis on character as much as action. The story centers on 5 blue-collar friends on a weekend fishing trip - and the hell that's unleashed upon them when they almost run into a car that's been abandoned in the middle of an isolated mountain road. Stopping to see if anyone needs their help, they inadvertently stumble into the middle of an undercover operation involving a CIA agent and a hidden training camp for homegrown terrorists (molded after real-life, recent discoveries in both the U.S. and Canada). Suddenly, these 5 regular, everyday guys find themselves way out of their league, fighting a bloody battle against a cunning, well-trained, brutal enemy that knows the rugged terrain like the back of its hand. A battle that quickly spirals into a full-scale mini-war for which they are completely unprepared - a war that not only pits them against their murderous foe but against the elements and against their own simmering resentments, prejudices, and conflicting loyalties as well.
