WHAT AN IRONY THAT ON THE NAME OF SUCH A GREAT THINKER AND A GREAT POET, PEOPLE ENGAGED HERE IS NOTHING BUT SHEER RHETORIC. WHAT DISTRICTS YOU ALL EDUCATED PEOPLE FROM REST OF THE CROWD IS YOUR EDUCATION AND UNIFORMITY OF THINKING ABILITY AND SHOULD BE COMMEMORATED BY WHAT YOU WRITE HERE! I AM DISAPPOINTED IF THIS IS THE CREAM IQBAL WAS LOOKING FOR!

Iqbal's Poetry is another tragedy of the so-called Muslim Ummah because this kind of Poetry has rendered Pakistan in total confusion:

Only this kind of Poetry should be encouraged in Pakistan

Jo Hadday Taqwa Ada Na Huway, To Apna Mazhab Yahi Hai Ghalib

Hawas Na Reh Jai Koi Baqi, Gunah Kijiay To Khoob Kijiay.

[Mirza Ghalib 1812]

Read about Iqbal and Lament:

Please find Pakistan in the following Rant of Iqbal and if you succeed in finding Pakistan in the Rant then what happened to Islam. And If Iqbal was for Islam then what was the need of that Cock and Bull Story of the Dream of Pakistan by Poet Allama Iqbal which we have been taught at School, College and University level and that too Ad nauseam …If the Watan [Homeland] was Kafan [Funeral] for the Religion [Islam] then what was the need of Pakistan and if Watan [Homeland] was not Kafan [Funeral] for Religion [Islam] then what was the need of this Verse.

1 - In Taza Khudaon Mein Bara Sab Say Watan Hai. Jo Pairahan Is Ka Hai, Woh Mazhab Ka Kafan Hai

If the Watan [Homeland] was Kafan [Funeral] for the Religion [Islam] then what was the need of this rant by Iqbal

“Saray Jahan Say Acha Hindustan Hamara” (Iqbal)

Another contribution to this Darul Islam and Darul Harb Theory is the demented and Fascist poetry of Iqbal and I leave it to you to decide:

Religious Fascist type poets, Religion, Mullahs, Mosques and Religious Rituals should be under strict government control and and religious rituals should only be allowed within the boundary walls of Mosques, Imam Bargahs and Community Centres. Loudspeakers should be banned forthwith except for Azan [prayer calls].

We have a Poet Iqbal [as a Pakistan's National Poet] who said [by denying Correct and authentic not Shia but Sunni Hadith] that Prophet Jesus [Peace be Upon him] will not appear before Judgement day [but Sunni and Pakistani Muslim reject Iqbal on this] Allama Iqbal also reject verified, authentic and correct Sunni Hadith not
Shia Hadith, that Mehdi will not arrive before Judgement Day whereas Pakistani Sunni Muslims [who say that Taliban are correct and true Pakistanis] reject Allama Iqbal’s False Belief [Allama Iqbal was Fasidul Aqeeda]

EVIDENCE OF ALLAMA IQBAL FALSE AQEEDA AS PER HIS OWN LITERATURE:

Second Coming of Prophet Jesus [PBUH] and Hazrat Imam Mahdi is proven through detailed and repeated Hadiths and Iqbal deny both. I wonder if you would still call a Childish Debate when I quote Quran and Hadith???

Allama Iqbal has a very saying about Mehdi’s Image.

thay tu woh aa’ba tumharay tum kya ho
haath per haath dharay muntazir-e-farda ho

Iqbal,

howi jis key khudi pehlay baidar, hay wohi mehdi


He wrote in a poem in Armaghan-e-Hijaz

“Is the son of Mary dead, or does he live?

Are Divine attributes separate from God, or one with His Person?

Is the Coming one the Nazarene Jesus, or a Mujaddid having the son of Mary’s qualities?

Are the Divine words created, or pre-existing from eternity, In which belief does lie the salvation of the Ummah?

Are not sufficient for the Muslims today, These Lat and Manat [idols] carved out by theology.”

One of the letter of Allama Iqbal from Iqbal Nama has this text:

“I can only tell you what I believe. I consider the Hadith reports about the Mahdi, the coming Messiah, and mujaddidiyya, to be derived from Persian and non-Arab conceptions. They have no connection with Arab concepts or the true spirit of the Quran.”

In Baqiyat Iqbal, p. 451

“Look for the descent of God upon the minaret of your own heart,

And give up waiting even for the Mahdi or Jesus.”

In Khutba-e-Madras

“As far as I understand the meaning of this movement, the Ahmadis believe that Jesus died the death of a mortal human being, and the return of the Messiah refers to a person who bears spiritual similarity to him. This belief gives this movement a rational appearance.”

I will just quote Quran and Hadith on Poets and both of them condemned Poets and Iqbal was a Poet, and Quran didn’t excluded Iqbal or the Nationalist Type of Pakistani Poets were not excluded from the condmened list of Quran and Hadith.

Since you are very fond of Islam and also of poetry so lets see how the ultimate source of Islam i.e. Quran views Poetry and Poets and please include Poet Iqbal in this category as well as mentioned in Quran:

“Shall I inform you upon whom the devils descend? They descend on every sinful, false one. They listen eagerly, but most of them are liars.As for poets, the erring follow them. Hast thou not seen how they stray in every valley, And how they say that which they do not? “[Verse 221-222-223- 224-225-226 Chapter 026 AL-SHUARA (THE POETS)]

And We have not taught him (Muhammad) poetry, nor is it meet for him. This is naught else than a Reminder and a Lecture making plain, To warn whosoever liveth, and that the word may be fulfilled against the disbelievers. [Chapter 36 Verses 69-70 YA-SEEN (YA-SEEN)]

That it is indeed the speech of an illustrious messenger. It is not poet’s speech - little is it that ye believe! Nor diviner’s speech - little is it that ye remember! It is a revelation from the Lord of the Worlds. [Chapter 69 Verse 40-41-42-43 AL-HAAQQA (THE REALITY)]

Narrated Ibn ‘Umar:

The Prophet said, “It is better for a man to fill the inside of his body with pus than to fill it with poetry.” [Muslim]

And if you still insist for Poetry and Poets then I like this kind of Poetry:

Jin Logon Ko Mujhe Say Adawat Gehri

Kehtay Hain Woh Mujh Ko Rafizi Aur Dehri

Dehri Kiyon Kar Ho, Jo Kay Huway Sufi

Shiee Kiyon Kar Ho Mawara An Nahri [Mirza Ghalib 1850]
===

Ashab Ko Jo Nasaza Kehtay Hain

Samjhayn To Zara Dil Mein Kay Kiya Kehtay Hain

Samjha tha Nabi nay un Ko Apna Hamdam

Hay , Hay Na Kaho Kisay Bura Kehtay Hain [Mirza Ghalib 1850]

===

Yaranay Rasul Yani Ashab-e-Kabbar

Hain Garchay Buhat Khalifa Un mein Hain Chaar

In Chaar Mein Ik Say Ho Jis Ko Inkar

Ghalib, Woh Musalman Nahi Hai Zanhar [Mirza Ghalib 1850]

====

Yaran-e-Nabi Mein Thi Larai Kis Mein?

Ulfat Ki Na Thi Jalwa Numai Kis Mein?

Woh Sidq, Woh Adl, Woh Haya aur Woh Ilm

Batlao Koi Kay Thi Burai Kis Mein? [Mirza Ghalib 1850]

===

Yaraan-e-Nabi Say Rakh Tawwalla Billah,

Har yak hai Kamal-e-Deen Mein Yakta Billah,

Woh Dost Nabi Kay Aur Tum Un Kay Dushman,

La Haula Wala Quwata Illah Billah [Mirza Ghalib 1850]

After going through these Pious verses of Ghalib on the Companions of Prophet Mohammad [PBUH] just go and read Mawdudi’s Khilafat O Malookiyat [Mawdudi was allegedly very pious] and read as to how Mawdudi ridicule Hazrat Uthman and Bibi Ayesha and Hazrat Muawiyah. Ghalib was a Drunkard but indeed he was in his senses as far as Prophet and his companions were concerned whereas Mawdudi was Mullah and spent all his life reading Quran but read his books what Filth he unloaded in the name of Jamat-e-Islami’s Islamic Literature.

My personal favourite Verse is this and I also do this:

Dewan-e-Ghalib compiled by Kali Das Gupta Raza

In present time in Pakistan if we need poetry then this type of poetry would do [that is my personal opinion]

An advice from Altaf Hussain Hali’s Collection [Mussadas-e-Hali]

کرے غیر گربت کی پوجا تو کافر

جو ٹھرائے بیٹا خدا کا تو کافر

جھکے آگ پر بہر سجدہ تو کافر

کواکب میں مانے کرشمہ تو کافر

مگر مومنوں پر کشادہ ہیں راہیں

پرستش کریں شوق سے جس کی چاہیں

نبی کو جو چاہیں خدا کر دکھائیں

اماموں کا رتبہ نبی سے بڑھائیں

مزاروں پہ دن رات مذریں چڑھائیں

شہیدوں سے جاجا کے مانگیں دعائیں

نہ توحید میں کچھ خلل اس سے آئے

نہ اسلام بگڑے نہ ایمان جائے

گناہوں سے ہوتے ہو گویا مبّرا

مخالف پہ کرتے ہو جب تم تبرّا

نہ سنی میں اور جعفری میں ہو الفت

نہ نعمانی و شافعی میں ہو ملت

وہابی سے صوفی کی کم ہو نہ نفرت

لمقلد کرے نا مقلد پہ لعنت

رہے اہلِ قبلہ مین جنگ ایسی باہم

کہ دینِ خدا پر ہنسے سارا عالم

کرے کوئی اصلاح کا گر ارادہ

تو شیطان سے اس کو سمجھو زیادہ
