Allama Muhammad Iqbal



Allama Iqbal Eastern scholars are most famouse all over the worldone of them is Allama Iqbal.Iqbal is the best articulated Muslim response to Modernity that the Islamic world has produced in the 20th century. His response has three dimensions:
A creative engagement with the conceptual paradigm of modernism at a sophisticated philosophical level through his prose writings, mainly his "The Reconstruction of Religious Thought in Islam" which present his basic philosophic insights
His Urdu and Persian poetery which is the best embodiment of poetically mediated thought, squarely in the traditional continuity of Islamic literature and perhaps the finest flowering of wisdom poetry, or contemplative poetry or inspired poetry in the modern times.As a political activist/ social reformer― rising up to his social responsibility, his calling at a critical phase of historyhinkers. He is a religous poet.

Iqbal addrsses with Muslim youngsters in unique way as following
Kabhi aey, Naujawan Muslim! taddabur bhi kiya tu ney?
Wo kya gardon tha tu jis ka hai ik toota hua tara
Tujhey uss qaum nay pala hai aaghosh-e-mohabbat main
Kuchal dala tha jis nay paon main taaj-e-sir-e-dara


Jvaid Nama
Dayar e Ishq mein apna Maqam paida kar
Naya zamana naye Subh o Sham paida kar.

Khda agar Dil e Fitrat Shanas de tujh ko
Lala o Gul se kalam paida kar.

Mera Tareeq amiri nahi Faqiri hai
Khudi na beich Ghareebi main nam paida kar
