My Favourite Poet (Allama Iqbal)


My Favourite Poet (Allama Iqbal)

                Allam Iqbal is my favourite poet. He is my selection because through his poetry. He awakened the Muslims of the sub-continent to demand for a separate homeland. Thus his name will ever be remembered in the rank and file of the people.

                He is our national poet if would be corrected to say that he is the poet of the entire Islamic world. He has composed poetry in Urdu and Persian. He was the lover of the nature. He wrote Ghazzals or Lyrics in the beginning. He praises about birds, mountains hills streams in their natural beauty.

                Iqbal was of the view that man should be equal in saying and action he should loves his fellow-men, he wrote two famous religious poems. Shikwa and Jawab-i-Shikwa. There are other notable books namely bang-i-Dara, Bai-i-Jibreel and Zarb-i-Kalim. These books contain very noble thoughts for the guidance of mankind.

                He was a great philosopher; he preached for the Muslims Unity, he awakened the sleeping nation, infect; he asked all the Muslims of the world to come in one platform, Unity is only solution for survival. The best of his poetry gives the message World Muslims Unity’s. He wanted to say that all the Muslims nations are in fact one great nation. This is because that they believe in one God and His last Prophet Muhammad (may peace is upon him).

                By virtue of his great service to Muslim Community, Iqbal is my favourites. May God bless his soul?
