اقبال تیری قوم کا اقبال کھو گیا

For those unaware, Allama Iqbal was born on 9 November 1877 in Sialkot and passed away on 21 April 1938.

Iqbal was not only a poet, but a philosopher and a visionary who envisioned an independent Muslim state that, after years of struggle, resulted in the creation of Pakistan.

During a time when Muslims in the subcontinent were in a state of disarray in the 1930s, it was Iqbal’s writings that instilled a spirit of nationalism in them, helping give birth to the idea of Pakistan.

In recognition of his services for the nation, his birthday, 9 November, is celebrated as Iqbal Day every year.
