Iqbal's shair

since there are so many poets on this forum, can some one tell me of any shair by iqbal on shia sunni unity?

Re: Iqbal's shair

Shias have blamed Sunnis for naming such following shairs as Iqbal's shairs:

"Royen woh jo munkar hein shahadat-e-Hussain (R.A) ke
Hum zina-o-javed ka matam nahi karte"

Allah knows best who's shair it is.

Anyways! The best shair of Iqbal I can think of is:

"Ki Mohammad (PBUH) se wafa tu ne to hum tere hein
Yeh jahan cheez hai kya, loh-o-qalam tere hein
"

This shair sums up everything.

Re: Iqbal's shair

Iqbal ka to mujhe yaad nahiiN magar Akbar Allahabadi ne mazaaHiyah andaaz meN yuN farmaayaa thaa:

muzakkar ke liye ‘HE’ hai, moannas ke liye ‘SHE’ hai
**
***magar Hazrat muKhannis haiN, na HEoN meN na SHEoN meN

yahaN 'Hazrat-e-muKhannas se muraad Liberal thinking waale log haiN jo do kashtiyoN par safar karnaa chaahte haiN aur nateejatan Gharq-e-aab hote haiN

i don't think it's 'allaamah's she'r.

Iqbal ka shair mujhe yaad nahi
Mujh se baRaa ustaad nahi

Re: Iqbal's shair

I don't remember particular shair for the time being, but Iqbal's poetry does tell that he was against discrimination even to the extent of races.

Yu'n to syed bhi ho, mirza bhi ho, afghan bhi ho,
Tum sabhi kuch ho, bataao to musalmaan bhi ho ?

If Iqbal wrote 'aan imam e aashqan e pur e Batool' for Shuhda e Karbala then same Iqbal also wrote for Hazrat Abu Bakr (RA):

Parwane Ko Charagh Hai, Bulbul Ko Phool Bas
Siddique Ke Liye Hai Khuda Ka Rusool (S.A.W.) Bas

Re: Iqbal's shair

^ Yes I think Yu'n to syed bhi ho, mirza bhi ho, afghan bhi ho, is fine...

I want to change my signature... ;)

Re: Iqbal’s shair

sadly but truly i think this stanza [band] says a lot about the situation in the Muslim world, especially Pakistan
