Re: An excerpt from Iqbal’s Shikwa
ok let me try with this disclaimer: I’m by no way authority on Iqbal
Ishq ki khair wo pehli si ada bhi na sahi
Jada paimaiye tasleemo raza bhi na sahi
( As per poet, love of God requires complete submission and Muslims lost that complete submission in their lifestyle)
Muztarib dil sifat-i qiblanuma bhi na sahi
Aur paabandiye aaeen-i wafa bhi na sahi
(Meaning people have made their wishes above everything and started wandering behind worldly things and disobeying God)
