Hello folks,
This is part of a project I am going to be involved in soon so be honest and expressive at the same time.
Suppose, you were to travel back in time and meet our national poet Allama Iqbal (reason for picking him up is because of April 21st around the corner).
If you had a job to do and were supposed to take the interview of Allama Iqbal, what questions would you ask that may generate productive answers - questions that may raise the issues which our nation is confused or miss-informed about; questions that are controversial to history or to the role of Iqbal specially in the movement of Pakistan.
Open up and throw as many questions you want… I need the questions for now - my research will be on his own works to answer the questions later…
-AQ

Q: salam; How you will compare the life and life after death? Did you see any difference in your thoughts and the reality after death?

Did you really base your shaheen or banda a momin on **Nietzsche's **superhuman ?
Was Your two nation theory for creation of more than one Muslim states or Just one Pakistan ?
why did you choose Shaheen to represent a super human , why not a lion or tiger ?

umm zobia actually there is an ayah of Quran that Iqbal himself says is the source of his falsafa-e-khudi where Allah talks about those who forget Allah and Allah makes them forget themselves....

Muslime state

sure
why did you choose Shaheen to represent a super human , why not a lion or tiger ?
lion cant fly, and to feel the height you must know how to fly.
tiger is considered stupid animal.

because it is a revolutionary appeal … dehqaan is already growing gandum but if he is not getting ROTI, then, there is no need of such a khait
