Rise of Islam ( Iqbal's Tulu-e-Islam)



                                         Rise of  Islam Part- 4

               This is the intention of nature, this is the secret of Muslim’s mission,
               World conquering brotherhood, prevalence of abundance of love,

               Breaking the idols of colour and blood, merge yourselves in the Ummah,
               So that, there be no Turk, no Iranian and no Afghan,

               On the branches in grove how long the company of the fowls?
               Thy wings have the power of highlander eagle’s flight,

               In the world of delusion based existence, faith of a Muslim,
               In the dark night of wilderness lamp of monastery,

               That which wiped out the tyranny of the Caesar and the Chosroes,
               That was the strenght of Ali, piety of Bu Zer, sincerity of Salman,

               The liberated Islamists moved with such a pomp and show,
               The centuries’ prisoners of evils watched through slit of prison-door,

               Strong Eeman ensures life of stability in the world,
               The Turk has proved to be more durable than the German,

               When in this fire ball of dust faith takes birth,
               Then it develops the wings of Gabriel the holy ghost.
                   ('Fire ball of dust' means man)

Rise of Islam (Iqbal's Tulu-e-Islam)


                                               Rise of Islam Part- 3

               Thy hands are the potent hands, thy words are the words of immortal God,
               Develop faith O unmindful! Thou art dominated by delusions,

               Destination of the Muslim is on the other side of the blue sky,
               Stars are the dust of the pathway of thy caravan,

               Space is transitory, man is momentary, beginning is thine, end is thine,
               Thou manifests the last message of God, thou art eternal,

                Thy existence is a decorative addition to the process of evolution,
                Thou art Abrahamical and architect of the world as well,

                By character thou art the custodian of the possibilities of life,
                As if, thou art at the test to exploit the hidden qualities of the world,

                From the world of matter for the world of eternity,
                The gift which the prophet (sal.) carried was goodness expected of thee,

                This point is clear from the history of the Ummah,
                That thou art the guardian of the nations of Asia,

                Revise the lesson of the truthfulness, the justice and the valour,
                Thou wilt be called upon to lead the nations of  world. 
           (Suggestions invited to make the above more exact)

Rise of Islam (Iqbal's Tulu-e-Islam)


                                  Rise of Islam Part- 2
                                           
                 Tears of repentance from Muslim’s eyes has the effect of Spring cloud, 
                 The stream of  Ibrahim Khalilullah will again generate pearls,
                                                                                                                                 
                 Muslim Ummah is again consolidating on the basis of the Book,
                 This branch of Hashim is about to bear leaves and fruits,

                 News of  lightening strike of that Turk of Shiraz, hero of Islam spreads,
                 As the breeze picks and spreads fragrance of flower from garden,

                 If the Ottoman had to face the catastrophe, so what?
                 The slaughter of hundreds of thousands of stars is followed by dawn,

                 Knowing the secrets of the world is more difficult than ruling the world,
                 After tremendous pondering, sense of visualisation develops,

                 Thousands of years are spent in weeping,  
                 Then too, birth of a visionary is rare in the world,

                 O nightingale! Sing so that by dint of thy song,
                 In the delicate body of  pegeon the courage of falcon takes birth,

                 In thy chest is hidden the secret of life, disclose it,
                 Muslim’s fate is to burn to serve the cause of Allah, disclose it.

                   {‘Spring cloud’ means cloud formed during Spring in Iran}
              {‘Turk of  Shiraz, hero of Islam’ and ‘visionary’ refer to Mustafa Kemal}
             {‘pegeon’ means subdued person i.e. Muslims, ‘falcon’ means free person}
