Tariq ki Dua; an Article by Abul Hassan Ali Nadvi on Allama Iqbal's Poem

Sir Muhammad Iqbal (Urdu: محمد اقبال) born (November 9, 1877 – April 21, 1938) was a converted Muslim poet and philosopher born in Sialkot, British India (now in Pakistan), whose poetry in Urdu and Persian is considered to be among the greatest of the modern era, and whose vision of an independent state for the Muslims of British India was to inspire the creation of Pakistan. He is commonly referred to as Allama Iqbal (علامہ اقبال‎, Allama lit. Scholar).

Allama's Poetry has put a great effect on the Muslim generation in 20th century. Many pieces of his poetry are considered to be the masterpiece of the Urdu poetry treasury.

Tariq Ki Dua is a beautiful poem by Allama Iqbal in which he describes the pray of Tariq bin Ziyad, the great Muslim Commander who conquered Spain. Allama Syed Abul Hassan Ali Nadvi, the great Muslim scholar of 20th century and an expert of Iqbaliyat has written an article of the same poem. Here I am going to post the article. I am sure you will like it as it will increase your knowledge about Iqbal and his poetry.
