Dr. Iqbal & Family (Source:OMG)

Asallam-0-Alakum,

I think most of us knows that OMG is grand daughter of Dr. Alama Iqbal. She her self is a very nice and open person. I asked her permission if i could open a thread so that we all could know more about the Dr. Iqbal’s life and specially his family life.

I hope if any one of you have some logical questions then she will be happy to answer them all.

OMG it will be great if you could share with us your family tree, and that how every one relates to Dr. Iqbal.

Thanks again.

Re: Dr. Iqbal & Family (Source:OMG)

first, i think OMG shud clarify how exactly she is related to Allama Iqbal....

Re: Dr. Iqbal & Family (Source:OMG)

Thanks Namaan. Ok, I am here to answer the questions.

Our family tree starts from 1800 as the first person of our family accepted Islam. We start our tree from that person. Our ancesters lived in Kashmir then moved to Punjab for business purpose. Dr Iqbal was born in Punjab, but as you read his poetry, you will find his love for Kashmir. He called himself as a Kashmiri boy who just embrassed Islam.

My relation with him? He is cousin of my grandfather(Daada) and grandmother(naani) (My Daada and Naani were siblings) . And not only he was a poet in our family but our family is family of poets and painters. I am a painter, not a poetess. But my mother and brother are poets.

Re: Dr. Iqbal & Family (Source:OMG)

^ so its like your grandfather's grandfather was also the grandfather of Allam Iqbal....

isnt that something like a door-paar ka rishta????

Re: Dr. Iqbal & Family (Source:OMG)

armughal is just jealous and trying to prove that OMG is a liar :flower1: so whatever excuses :stuck_out_tongue:

Re: Dr. Iqbal & Family (Source:OMG)

Armughal, is it my interview or of Allama Iqbal :rehm:…lol

Thanks brother Anwaar. Naumaan opened this thread to know more about his life. I would love to answer any question regarding him.

More informations, before accepting Islam, we were Berhamans…:slight_smile: But now we are Muslims, just muslims. No Barhaman behaviour…no difference. That is the most beautiful thing of Islam. Isnot it?

Re: Dr. Iqbal & Family (Source:OMG)

I thought OMG is a guy. At least she posts like one sometimes in Religion. Or is her husband sharing her account? Hmm.

Re: Dr. Iqbal & Family (Source:OMG)

OMG would u like to tell us that how was his behaviour among the family. Means we only know him as a poet, but how was he as a person in family ?

Re: Dr. Iqbal & Family (Source:OMG)

lmao! What if she's making it all up? Jeez, people.

Re: Dr. Iqbal & Family (Source:OMG)

Some one said that:

Consider every one as Gentleman, unless and untill he proves it otherwise.

Re: Dr. Iqbal & Family (Source:OMG)

How would she know his behavior with the family, she wasn't even born when Iqbal passed away. Illama Iqbal passed away on April 21st, 1938.

Ask something that she can answer and not assume.

Re: Dr. Iqbal & Family (Source:OMG)

How you know that there was Illama Iqbal, when he died so early ??

Re: Dr. Iqbal & Family (Source:OMG)

^ haha .. well said.

C'mon people, before doubting her identity, ask yourself a simple question why would she fake this? I certainly don't think she's faking it. Being a family member of some famous person is not a sin, as you guys are making it seem like.

OMG, I am very keen to hear from you about Allama Iqbal. It'll be nice to hear/learn anything about him from his own family member. Erm, do you have any of your paintings to share?

Re: Dr. Iqbal & Family (Source:OMG)

If you are raised in pakistan, then you are taught this from kindegarten. Who was Allama Iqbal and Quaid-e-Azam and when were they born and when did they die.

I am not doubting her identity, I am just saying he passed away way before she was born.

Alif Say Allama

Re: Dr. Iqbal & Family (Source:OMG)

Re: Dr. Iqbal & Family (Source:OMG)

Re: Dr. Iqbal & Family (Source:OMG)

AQ brother from where did u gather that i am jealous????

relations wud not have any effect on the person i think....

just look at justice javed iqbal....
he is Allama Iqbal's son, and i think Allama Iqbal wud hang his head in shame for having a son like that....

i was asking only to know how close she is related to Iqbal and how much influence she has from him....

Re: Dr. Iqbal & Family (Source:OMG)

^
abaY! hiss-e-mazaaq pedaa kar agar zindoN maiN hai :stuck_out_tongue:

and agreed about his son .. I dun like his views either :grumpy:

Re: Dr. Iqbal & Family (Source:OMG)

Armughal bhai, why is that? Just want to know, since I've seen Javed Iqbal on T.V talk shows, in which he speaks in behalf of Allama Iqbal.
