LADY OF PARADISE FATIMA ZAHRA IN THE EYES OF ALLAMA IQBAL
Allama Iqbal,
the famous poet, philosopher and
thinker of Pakistan, was a Sunni
Muslim, and a devout admirer of
Ahley Bayt. His Urdu and Persian
work is full of praise for Imam
Ali, Imam Husayn apart from
Prophet Mohammad. In his Persian
book Ramooz-e-Bekhudi, he had
written a qaseedah praising The
Lady of Paradise. I will
reproduce it first in
transliteration followed by
English translation.
