LAHORE: Despite COVID-19 lockdown, the 82nd death anniversary of Dr Allama Muhammad Iqbal was observed today.

Shair-e-Mashriq, Muffakir-e-Pakistan, and Hakeem-ul-Ummat are the titles given to the national poet and philosopher.

Recently, talking to this scribe, Irani member of parliament (Tehran) and the Consul General of Iran posted at Karachi said that people of their country too call Iqbal-e-Lahori their poet

It is pertinent to mention here that a major portion of Allama Iqbal’s work is in Persian as he had perfect command over the language.

Iqbal, born in Sialkot on 9th November, 1877, is also credited with sparking the Pan-Islamic thought among Muslims of the subcontinent.
