For decades, November 9 has been celebrated as a symbolic day in the remembrance of<strong> Dr. Allama Muhammad Iqbal<\/strong> \u2013 acknowledged as<strong> \u2018<\/strong><\/span><strong><i>Hakeem-ul-Ummah<\/i>\u2019 (The Sage of the Ummah)and \u2018The Thinker of Pakistan\u2019.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">He was a great \u2018Poet of the East\u2019 and despite being famous for his poetry, Iqbal was also a great philosopher and an active politician. By now he is considered one of the most striking figures of Urdu legendary with colossal contributions in Urdu, Persian and English languages. In view of his political influences, he was the one who initiated the Pakistan movement.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">On his\u00a0 birthday today, let\u2019s recall his everlasting words that unquestionably are an asset for the whole nation and surely will make everyone rethink their objectives in life and inner strengths.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u2018<strong>Nations are born in the hearts of poets\u2019<\/strong><\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><strong>;<\/strong> well undoubtedly Iqbal has ascertained what he believed then. His poetry submerges various subjects including Muslim comradeship, Islam, philosophy and much more, but the main awe-inspiring theme of Iqbal\u2019s poetry comprises of <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u2018Khudi\u2019 \u2013 <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">the self-assertion, spirit of liberation, sense of integrity, gallantoptimism, purification of thoughts and being aware of self-power to achieve anything.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Allama Iqbal was the one who got ahead in leading his dreams into reality since he believed in himself. He knew what he imagined about will be a reality one day as the authority of Pakistan and he left us with the lesson that no matter how much obscurity you face, never drop anticipation and steadfastly have faith in yourself. Draw out your faith firmly and elevate it with every instant, as a result things will be compelled to pace through your dreamt way.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">His splendid poetry and philosophy stimulated millions of Muslims to wake up to the veracity of eras and set a destiny for themselves.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><i>Wohi Jahan hai tera jisko tu kare Paida<\/i><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><i>Yeh Sang-o-Khasht nahe jo teri Nigah me hai<\/i><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cYour world is the one which you create yourself, not these stones and bricks, which are in sight\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Today after many years of existence, this probably is not the Pakistan of which Iqbal had dreamt. We probably are not what we were supposed to be. But We pretty sure that being Muslims and Pakistanis \u2013 sharing the bloodstream of those sacrificing folks who acquired and secured Pakistan for us \u2013 we are firm enough to recoup our lost integrity.The need is to catch the spark of Iqbal\u2019s words and act upon them wholeheartedly.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Days certainly are not distinctive on their own \u2013it is the being who often makes it special through the momentousness&hellip; <a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/384\/9th-november-iqbal-day\/\">Continue reading <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">9th November &#8220;Iqbal day&#8221;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":217,"featured_media":1301,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1300","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized","entry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/384\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1300","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/384\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/384\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/384\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/217"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/384\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1300"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/384\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1300\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1303,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/384\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1300\/revisions\/1303"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/384\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1301"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/384\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1300"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/384\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1300"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/384\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1300"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
